Good tempo priest buff, and good all around. Even in *shudders... ress priest. Will see a lot of play. Mainly because 2 mana Extra Arms after boomsday buffs event was one of the most broken priest cards. Tempo priest was insane back then, just because of a 2 mana +2/+2 buff. This card looks pretty good, but we will see if turn 2 +2/+2 is still as broken these days.
Rager is nearly a pack filler, but Ragers are quite a meme in Hearthstone that I almost didn't have the heart to put him there. That and no other card would cross off Memey, so I put him there.
Raise Dead also doesn't count for Back From The Dead because it isn't really Resurrect Priest support in the sense that it doesn't actually summon the minions back, but simply adds them to your hand.
Seems really good for deathrattle hunter, but we gotta talk about "the elephant in the room".
The discover nerf from quite a while ago. What this means for this card is that you get neutral deathrattle minions at the same rate as class minions. And neutral has a BUNCH of BAD deathrattle minions, like: The Beast, and Rustsworn Cultist. With other studies it's not that bad, however there are waaay more deathrattle minions in neutral, than let's say... spell-damage minions.
Rustsworn isn’t a deathrattle, it just gives other minions deathrattles.
Probably still too many bad deathrattles for this to be good though, even with the discount
amazing card. You can pretty much safely drop it on 4 and don't even need to activate spell burst for it to be good.
Yeah it goes over the weakness of spellburst but.. I will say that a 4/4 stealth for 4 isn't that great we had a MECH with the text when every single deck ran "unity precision perfection".
I was going to say this card is great, 4 mana 4/4 stealth isn't bad and although a random combo card isn't ideal it is still a bonus, but then you reminded me of Coppertail Imposter and now I am thinking that this card may not be as good as I thought it was.
That being said, this card is a lot better than Coppertail Imposter because A. Stealth is more relevant to rogue than the Mech tag. B. adding a random combo card to your hand is something. While it may not be good, it is something. I think if you take a bad card and combine it with a bad effect you get a mediocre card. And this is better than some of the other options for Stealth Rogue.
Are we sure that it does this with an empty hand? Because it says to shuffle to draw. If you don't have anything to shuffle, the effect *technically* shouldn't go off. Any thoughts or clarifications that anyone can offer here??
This Card could provide an insane Swing, like Soul Mirror.
But it should be said that 3 Damage for 7 is not good. Flamestrike often enough just barely clears the Board, and it deals more Damage than this. For this to give you max. Value, you have to either face a Board full of small Minions, or use your Minions to soften up your Opponents.
Let's me think about the card Dinosize. Blessing of Authority is cheaper and honestly pretty playable on just a Silver Hand Recruit just to act as hard removal. But we also got plenty of other cards like Subdue and Turalyon, the Tenured to do the exact same. Maybe it will be used in highlander Paladin, if it ever takes off?
In wild it's pretty decent in quest paladin. Gives Lynessa Sunsorrow +8/+8 and Lynessa Sunsorrow wasn't going face the same turn anyways.
This is rather interesting. Usually, if you aren't able to kill your opponent within the next 2 turns, it is best to save your weapon for trading. But now you have to consider what you want to trade with and set up the weapon's attack accordingly. That being said I think the weapon will probably be too slow to see play, especially when rogues just got Coerce which is a fantastic removal spell.
Nothing too amazing (aside from the Deathstalker thing), but handbuff isn’t really that great usually, so a card that would really want that might not be too good
Just to clarify, this does trigger if your opponent doesn't play any cards, right? I am not sure if that is inconsistent with other secrets or not because usually if the reward isn't able to trigger, the secret stays dormant.
Anyway I think this will see play in any rogue deck that needs some card advantage. The only problem is most rogue decks aren't looking for more card advantage. Maybe in a burgle rogue, but aside from that I don't think it is worth it.
Paladin: support for Duel! Paladin. Duel! paladin was already bad, and i feel like it still didn't get enough support if you ask me. Bad card, will mainly see play as a meme.
Warrior: Good card. Warrior has a lot of good card you want to target with this, like Rattlegore and Troublemaker. Also it's REALLY GOOD to play alongside Ceremonial Maul. Also let's not sleep on the fact Recruit/Dimensional Ripper warrior still has support in the Rise of Shadows set, with cards like The Boom Reaver and Dimensional Ripper.And Kael'thas Sunstrider can help get out these spells earlyer. Also Recruit warrior actually got good support this time around with cards like Reaper's Scythe and Lord Barov to help with survivability. I.m.o. recruit warrior is a sleeper deck right now and people are going to soon understand it's hidden potential.
This costs 1 more than Execute, or two less than Assassinate. Either way it isn't a bad card to play. Chances are you will either have 1 minion on the field to trade with or 1 card in hand to combo with.
I will get so much hate for this comment probably but; The card's image feels like it is made for people who will cry "Why isn't there any black people in this expansion ?"

New Demon Hunter Spell - Fel Guardians
Very dependent on having a lot of tokens die. I can't tell if you need to have this card in your hand when they die for the effect to work or not.

New Rogue Weapon - Self-Sharpening Sword
is it just me or Hooked Scimitar and Waggle Pick are just better options ? Well, at least they will leave standard at some point.

Great to have in early game, terrible to draw in late time, lol.

New Demon Hunter Spell - Double Jump
Not bad, and I like the reference to the DH unique double-jump ability in WoW. Great way to use an outcast card.
New Demon Hunter Spell - Cycle of Hatred

Divine Rager
Memes... and maybe sometimes you are forced to pick this in arena...
New Rogue Minion - Vulpera Toxinblade
Super good!!! Sinergize well with the new card Steeldancer too. And the art is amazing! love it
New Hunter Spell - Overwhelm
Doesn’t really look like something you’d need, especially given how often your small tokens die anyways

New Hunter Minion - Krolusk Barkstripper
Another reason to run some of those really cheap small pings for the legendary’s effect. Even without those it looks pretty good

New Hunter Minion - Bloated Python
Just reminds me more of that Karazhan card that summoned the 3/2 when it died than an egg, and that card was only ever decent

New Neutral Minion - Sneaky Delinquent
Stealth Rogue could reasonably be a thing with something like this existing.
