2 mana deal 1 damage was good with Spirit Lash because the lifesteal effect, dealing just 1 damage to enemies is not enough unless you play cards like Bloodmage Thalnos.
Blizz annouced that wide-board shaman archetype will be supported, so cards like Condemn (Rank 1) can shine.
This is insanely good. Would've been good without the taunt, would've been good without either battlecry or deathrattle, would be good without elemental tag. With all of them? Autoinclude.
Less than 24 hours after showing that they are going to give support to Paladin secrets they pull off one of the best tech cards against secrets (Horde Operative). At this point the best thing would be for this to be the only secrets support for Paladin in this expansion so that there is a chance that the others are useful cards.
at first this seems good, but the more I look at this, the more I think this is trash. first, destroying enemy secrets is much more important than copying them second, enemy does not lose synergy or tempo by this. third, even at wild ranked, the best eater of secrets would destroy 3 mage secrets. so it would be pretty unrealistic to hope that you will get a xmas tree after playing this.
I think this will see play. This is curves perfectly with Sword Eater or [Hearthstone Card (wrenchcalliber) Not Found], and side from those warrior has plenty of good weapons. In the right deck I think this should be fairly easy to trigger.
This is very good. Consecration can't be played until turn 4, this deals the same damage for half the cost only 1 turn later. At 10 mana you will have other board clears available as a priest (at least in wild, not sure about standard), so this isn't spectacular in the late game. But it is a very strong card in the early to mid game. I would be surprised if this doesn't become a staple.
I really dont like legendaries that all they do is drawing cards like this. Curator, Ringmaster Whatley, Countess Ashmore. they dont feel legendary enough for me. they may be good cards, but I dont like them still.
There's always the possibility that priest gets some incentive to run spell damage as well, or Mo'arg for that matter. It's possible that priest is heavy control priest and having 8 clears and supporting stuff is the plan.
I agree with the sentiment though, this is an Arcane explosion in a class that really can't (right now) support synergizing it's abilities.
This is good with Wretched Tutor though and that is a card priest can already support very well, especially later with Apotheosis
DHunter has the draw potential to not run out of steam easily, so the chance you have no targets available seems very small. Now, regarding what can this card pull off, the results are not very good, like [Hearthstone Card (Renouned Performer) Not Found] or [Hearthstone Card (Fishy Flier) Not Found] (cards that "lose" Rush if Razorfen Beastmaster is killed on your opponent's turn), Teron Gorefiend (mediocre without the Battlecry part), Educated Elekk (kekW).
I'd argue the best target I can think of for Razorfen Beastmaster to pull is actually Sneaky Delinquent, because that card itself is hard to effectively remove, but then there's the questions of why are you playing Sneaky Delinquent in DHunter and why didn't you play it T2.
New Priest Minion - Lightshower Elemental
crazy good card. can be rez'ed, copied and even more. 5 star from me

PCGamesN Reveals a New Forged in the Barrens Card - Horde Operative
Oh thank god a counter to secret rogue - the deck that hasn't seen play in months!
New Neutral Minion - Blademaster Samuro
can see this in libram paladin or any buff deck tbh
New Hunter Minion - Barak Kodobane
It tutors 3 cards in a class that usually struggles for card draw. Why wouldn't this be played?
New Priest Minion - Lightshower Elemental
This is insanely good. Would've been good without the taunt, would've been good without either battlecry or deathrattle, would be good without elemental tag. With all of them? Autoinclude.
New Paladin Minion - Cannonmaster Smythe
Wow, just wow.
Less than 24 hours after showing that they are going to give support to Paladin secrets they pull off one of the best tech cards against secrets (Horde Operative). At this point the best thing would be for this to be the only secrets support for Paladin in this expansion so that there is a chance that the others are useful cards.

second, enemy does not lose synergy or tempo by this.
third, even at wild ranked, the best eater of secrets would destroy 3 mage secrets. so it would be pretty unrealistic to hope that you will get a xmas tree after playing this.
in conclusion, this is a trash tier tech card imo

PCGamesN Reveals a New Forged in the Barrens Card - Horde Operative
Maybe we should run this in our secret decks just in case someone uses this against us. That might be hard against Plagiarize though.
New Neutral Minion - Primordial Protector
gamebreaking potential.
New Neutral Minion - Horde Operative
I’m looking forward to my first infinite loop of this card and Plagiarize.
New Neutral Minion - Spirit Healer
could see play in Paladin or Priest decks, not crazy about it.
New Priest Spell - Condemn (Rank 1)
I dont think that would be good enough. 2 on turn 5, 3 on turn 10 wont be enough imo
New Neutral Minion - Razormane Raider
solid synergy with warrior enrage mechanics
New Neutral Minion - Horde Operative
The one time where I value a card higher for wild than for standard.
Thanh Reveals a New Forged in the Barrens Priest Card - Condemn (Rank 1)
Priest doesn't have much of anything right now.

So good.
sinergizes with N'Zoth, God of the Deep, res and any heal interaction.
We will see that guy a lot.

love it!

New Druid Minion - Druid of the Plains
Solid shapeshift card. Druid fantasy check!
New Demon Hunter Minion - Razorfen Beastmaster
w8ting on more Deathrattle reveals to have a better understanding of this.
