I'd probably try changing Pick A Card from Draw 3 Fleeting to Draw 2 Fleeting. I think Draw 8 -> TF L2 is generally a fair risk -> reward proposition, it's just that certain highly optimized decks have made it way to easy to "pop off" and flip TF too quickly. I don't really like the idea of directly nerfing TF, as that would probably kill using TF outside of those optimized decks.
I'm sure someone will make an OTK deck in Wild. Empty board of opponent, 6 Razormane Raider, a Whirlwind effect, 30 damage. Probably will require so many mana reduction by Emperor Thaurissan.
I'm surprised that this card didn't get buffed. It hasn't seen any competitive play in a long time, and I doubt it will now. I would love to be wrong though.
Yes it can deal 8+8 in a turn. Raging Felscreamer on turn 4, and then you can coin it on 5 or wait for turn 6 to use Hero Power to deal 8+8... pretty scary, especially if meta gets slower, and it is possible, because Blizzard removed many burst (finisher) cards.
So this is actually a dual-class card. I don't think classes other than Priest and Paladin will get Holy spells, unless there will be a way to generate spells of a specific school. Stats and effect are nice. Could actually snowball some buffs with cheap spells.
This card has proven its worth already in a few different ways, early on to cheat out Antaen and Priestess of Fury, more recently to enable OTK with Il'Gynoth. I think it will be a solid choice for a variety of decks.
So interesting that they remove almost (all?) of the charge minions from standard, then add this. It's attack is too small to be a huge threat, but it could present significant damage over several turns.
Overlord Runthak is a neutral way to buff hand but classes that have spells for buffing (Rogue w/ Cold Blood seems super fun) can make this card even more nuts. Love the design and expect to see him in a lot of decks.
Well, we already know this card is insanely good. A solid removal/healing tool, worth it even without the Outcast cost reduction. Plus, a staple in Il'gynoth OTK decks.
Will be interesting to see if this can be buffed fast enough to not be a tempo loss. Could be really good if it can be consistently played with a buff...

I can confirm this is possible, but I wouldn't rely upon it working.
If you win and you've already pre-ordered, you can give the code to a friend or redeem it yourself for another server.

That's the big question, right?

Our events system was responsible for Halloween and Winter last year so it makes use of that =D
I'd love to say everything was built for this since that would be cool, but that isn't the case.

Razormane Raider + Carnivorous Cube + 2x Faceless Manipulator + Deathwing
Empty board and 6 Razormane Raider lol. Since you discard your hand, you might also need Scourgelord Garrosh's hero power or something like Explosive Sheep to trigger Frenzy.
Plague of Flames or Cataclysm could also work as a cheaper option.
New Neutral Minion - Spirit Healer
Not sure if this will be any good in Priest. Might make for even more crazy big minions for Paladin (assuming Librams are Holy).
[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
Nope

New Priest Spell - Desperate Prayer
Nice as a generated card for control priest, but unlikely to be included in my decklists unless it helps enable other shenanigans...

New Neutral Minion - Mankrik
Seems average. I think it will get some fringe use, but nothing that is a build around.
New Demon Hunter Weapon - Warglaives of Azzinoth
I'll be curious to see if this card resurfaces. It was played a lot early on, but I haven't seen it in quite a while.
New Neutral Minion - Mankrik
Cute, interesting card. Probably too inconsistent to see regular play, but 5*s for the reference!
New Demon Hunter Minion - Kor'vas Bloodthorn
So interesting that they remove almost (all?) of the charge minions from standard, then add this. It's attack is too small to be a huge threat, but it could present significant damage over several turns.
New Neutral Minion - Blademaster Samuro
I think this will get a BUNCH of experimentation. I think a bunch of classes can make interesting use of this.
Sunscale Raptor
I love how they're changing hunter

Hoping to see Big Demon Hunter support continue. This looks like fun, but I'm usually guilty of over-rating big bodies...

Job's done!
New Demon Hunter Spell - Eye Beam
Well, we already know this card is insanely good. A solid removal/healing tool, worth it even without the Outcast cost reduction. Plus, a staple in Il'gynoth OTK decks.
New Priest Spell - Desperate Prayer
A minion-based Priest deck with this and Spirit Healer? Maybe it doesn't require that many minions.
Not that exciting, but 0-cost cards usually provide good tempo.
New Neutral Minion - Blademaster Samuro
Will be interesting to see if this can be buffed fast enough to not be a tempo loss. Could be really good if it can be consistently played with a buff...
New Demon Hunter Minion - Illidari Inquisitor
Super nasty, even more so when combined with Raging Felscreamer. Yikes!
