Great suggestion, I didn't even think of Armagedillo. I love Darkmoon Rabbit though. I feel we could cut a dragon instead, unless we just want to include the one beast so we know what N'Zoth, God of the Deep will summon.
I think this will see play since it is a strong late game card that can do a lot to get you ahead if you are behind. If Zilliax has taught me anything, it's that if you put enough keywords onto a card, it will see play.
It's kind of funny to me how Pure Paladins get rewarded for not playing any neutral cards by getting a bigger version of the most played neutral card in the game.
SHR synergy is never a bad thing, and in any deck with SHR focus, this card will definitely be a strong pick. A board full of Divine Shields is quite strong, and the +1 Attack is a great bonus to that.
While that is true I'm just trying to figure out how she got here since she was left in Draenor in WoW and then went to start her crusade for THE LIGHT! And I get hearthstone doesn't really stick to WoW lore but if I recall correctly Yrel was dead in base Draenor and only alive in an alternate timeline thing. Not to mention she later became a fanatical maniac and crusaded for her cult so I guess maybe this is just a lore break like all of MSOG or SA.
I think this will definitely be good in any deck that can keep a decent number of silver hand recruit tokens on the field. The issue is that most decks that revolve around silver hand recruits are odd. So I don't know if this will end up seeing play.
I only know her from HotS, but isn't she some sort of holy paladin that protects the innocents? If so, I can see how she is standing against the darkness(in this case old gods) from a pure character standpoint.
I don’t play standard but how often does your opponent have 5 or more minions in play? I know control decks probably won’t. All those cards are good to see play in a tempo warrior deck and maybe if you see you are against an aggressive deck just use the combo pieces early on but otherwise you can try to save them for a potential combo on turn 9. Or even if you save part of the combo pieces and deal 24 damage on turn 9 that’s still a good finisher for a tempo warrior.
This seems pretty good. Dude Paladin has taken many forms over the years, so I can see this working. I'll just add my agreement that this would be very problematic if it was odd-costed for Wild.
It's weird to me that everyone is comparing this to Zilliax and not Shirvallah, the Tiger. Same exact stats and abilities, just with taunt and a different activation scenario. I think this card is very strong and will see a fair amount of play, but I think it would be cooler if it wasn't so similar to Shirvallah.
One of the best cards in the set purely thanks to the deckbuilding possibilities it opens. I'm very interested to see which classes will make the menagerie work (probably Paladin, at least, thanks to their multi-direction "class identity").

New Paladin Minion - High Exarch Yrel
Exciting & high-powered card. Capable of huge swings!
High Exarch Yrel is a New Paladin Legendary Revealed for Hearthstone's Darkmoon Faire Expansion
Well in WoW she does start a weird cult based around THE LIGHT and culls people who don't join it so I can see why she's paladin
New Priest Minion - The Nameless One
One of the best cards in the expansion so far!
The Nameless One
I wonder if this may be the best card in the expansion...
High Exarch Yrel is a New Paladin Legendary Revealed for Hearthstone's Darkmoon Faire Expansion
Hey look it's Yrel! At an extremely weird time I have several questions.
1. Why is she on Azeroth didn't we leave her in another dimension?
2. How does this relate to the fair? Are some classes fighting it while others joined it like ROS?
3. Will this be super annoying like Zilliax?

He'll still do well elsewhere in Paladin, even without Yrel. :)

Wouldn't Armagedillo be a better beast than Darkmoon Rabbit? You have some other taunts like Tomb Warden and Scrap Golem that would benefit from the Armagedillo buffs

I was expecting that Yrel would be no-neutral card after we saw almost all of Draenei's are also no-neutral cards.

One of the best cards in the set purely thanks to the deckbuilding possibilities it opens. I'm very interested to see which classes will make the menagerie work (probably Paladin, at least, thanks to their multi-direction "class identity").
New Neutral Minion - C'Thun, the Shattered
I'm quite sure it won't be in the random generation pool.
