Firstly, why is Lothraxion at the Darkmoon Faire? It is related to neither the Light nor the Legion. And what has he got to do with the Silver Hand? I'm not sure why they're intent on shoehorning actual pally characters into recent expansions when making new ones would do fine.
Edit: It's worse than that. If they're going to make a Silver Hand legendary, then why not use one of the actual members of the Silver Hand?
Edit 2: thanks to Alfi pointing it out below, that Lothraxion has some connection to the Silver Hand.
Secondly, this is going to make Odd Pally even more frustrating to play against. Hooray...
This card seems pretty good in Standard, especially since we see a bit more Silver Hand Recruit synergy in this new set. However, it seems absolutely flat-out busted in Odd Paladin in Wild. Is that still a strong deck? Important to note that it doesn't just affect the Hero Power, but all Silver Hand Recruits.

At the moment, there's only 1 dragon tutor card, and the nzoth timing is not an auto play on 10. I honestly don't see anything wrong with only having one tutor target, since in most cases this would be a midrange deck that wants to play on curve anyway, and their cards are usually big enough that you'd rarely run out of value. So if you whiff tutoring that one dragon, that also means you've exactly what you want in your hand.
Let's also not forget that there's only 1 beast worth running in warrior and that's Armagedillo, and there's no chance on earth you'd dilute your pool just so you dont whiff. So same situation here.
Still, we don't know what else is down the line, so there's still plenty of time for me to end up with egg on my face.
First time rewards are still there. If I'm not mistaken it was introduced around late March, so if you've ranked up at that time before your hiatus, chances are you already got it, since the climb is relatively easy with the bonus stars. Maybe you didn't notice it cause' the reward is but a classic pack.
I haven't played much HS since April, with the new changes. I did rank up a bit at that point to get some of the first-time rewards, but I don't remember where I stopped ranking up.
Can anyone tell me the answer to this question: are there still first-time rank-up rewards? Do they exist? I'm asking because I feel pretty confident that I never reached Diamond 5 since the new system was put in place. Just got there now. And I got nothing for it, other than the usual epic being added to my chest. Did they discontinue the first-time rewards? I assumed that those first-time rewards were a permanent addition that would always be there for everyone to get the first time they reach a new rank floor.
This card seems way too situational and slow to be played imo. I mean, best case scenario you probably copy another Lapidary or a Bladed Lady and go face, but like I said, just way too slow. Either that or you need a low curve to vomit everything out at once, but apart from Stiltstepper and Twin Slice, DH does not really have any high impact cards that can be outcasted and played on the same turn.
I thought generating cards was supposed to be a weakness of DH. They already have excellent card-draw. A legendary minion that generates cards feels out of place in DH. Interacting with left/right-most cards in hand is the the demon hunter part of it, but otherwise it would look fine a Shaman or Mage or Priest or Rogue card; the classes that are good at generating cards.
Could be nice copying an "Outcasted" card but seems to have very low impact when played. Besides that is pretty "expensive" as a legendary, it should be epic at least in my opinion.
Its a decent card and a really good addition to control DH (if this should be a thing). I would probably include this into any non-aggro DH deck. You are all too focused on the combo potential (too clunky), in my opinion this is a control value card and not a combo enabler in the first place.

Silver hand recruit support plus a demon for n'zoth pally, seems really good

I'd be surprised if this didn't become an Odd Paladin staple.
Lorewise, both Paladin legendaries seem to be "How did they get to Darkmoon Faire?"

First-time Ranked Rewards
Hey all,
I haven't played much HS since April, with the new changes. I did rank up a bit at that point to get some of the first-time rewards, but I don't remember where I stopped ranking up.

Thanks for the replies.

Would be broken in Mage or Priest. In DH it probably won't be played, if there won't be a broken combo.

You could copy cards like C'thun etc.
Also, if you only have one card in hand, it should give you two copies of it, which can probably lead to some shenanigans.
