You listed Rockbiter Weapon twice in the Returning Basic & Classic Cards. One labeled -Nature school, and one Not. Other than that, a Very good solid recap, thank you!
Only a handful of hours separate us from the full reveal of the new Core set and we're very excited to see what we'll be playing with for the next year.
When was the info, that the full set is going to be revealed today? Made a quick check at playhearthstone on Twitter but there wasn't any recent news about the core set.
I'm not sure the restriction on Walk the Plank is really enough to justify reducing it to 3 mana though, since you normally try to kill minions as soon as they are played and they are undamaged anyway. It also has the option to target your own minions, which is minor but not entirely useless, preventing it from being an objectively worse Assassinate.
So it's in an awkward spot where it should really cost 3.5 mana (at least in the context of rogue hard removal. I don't want other classes thinking their mana costs follow the same rules!), and nearly all cards that should cost X.5 mana end up overpowered at X mana or too weak at X+1. I'm sure Wild would handle it at 3 mana with no problem in this case, but it's still a risky precedent to set.
I thought Tirion Fordring and Fireball were also returning cards?
Also with this core set shake up I wonder if cards like Senjin Shieldmasta will see play or not, haven't seen that dude in a meta in AGES.
and adding the spell schools to specific cards means we'll definitely get spells or minions in this next set that can discover them specifically, and will probably reduce the amount of regular spell damage in the game.
I'm super excited for the full reveal. I wanna see that new Jaraxxus hero card
Basically, they're making some of the new DH cards evergreen so they won't rotate when the year is over, and yes, everyone will get those for free.
However.
When you get the cards for free, you still don't own them. For players that haven't crafted them or found them in AOO packs, they won't be able to disenchant any copies and it should look like how Basic cards look today. If you do own them, you'll be able to disenchant them and then keep playing with them through the rental copies.
But, if they decide to remove those cards from the core set at a later date, you won't have them anymore if you disenchanted them since you were using the rental copies so I'll never advise anyone to disenchant their cards.
I don't understand how secrets make sense for Warlock. I just played WoW for the first time ever and got one to 50. Nothing felt like it would be a good secret. Maybe just the panic button spells like unending resolve?
On a side note, it was pretty cool to see things I recognized in WoW from HS.
4 cards returning from Ashes of Outland (4 Demon Hunter Class cards).
Ashes of Outland is not rotating, so will the 4 DH cards be from that expansion, but just given to us for free as part of the core set? And how would that look in the collection manager if you already have the cards?
Deadly Poison is getting the Nature school? I'm glad they're only using natural ingredients, but does it really count as nature magic? I guess they have to stretch a bit to give rogue and warrior any spells with magic schools.
really hoping they make the other overload cards for shaman better aswell (dust devil, forked lightning,lava burst,doomhammer) and unbound elemental as support.
Aslo some elemental support would be cool. Maybe with some buffs ontop(liek for stone sentinel the 7mana 4/4)
Also hoping for 1mana rockbiter and 2mana totem (for wild the totem)

In WoW, poison damage is nature damage. To make it a nature spell is a little bit of a stretch, I agree.

Should be buffed to 3 honestly, but dont see it happening(same as getting rid of the prep tax on od rogue spells since prep has been nerfed.
But hey maybe can hope for buff if it replaces assinate as the core set single targte removal in future.

You will have 4 copies but can use only 2 of them if you already have them. That is how doom in the tomb worked anyway

I don't think we received any official statement on the matter (or at least I remember so: I definitely might be wrong), but it is very likely, yes.
