Hmmmm another Aviana? Hmmmm. Play aviana down. Gain one mana crystal for the turn. Play kun the king down to refresh your mana crystals. Play down this card. Get more mana and play malygos and kaelthalas and big spells that draw you cards. GAME OVER!!
If I remember correctly, Dispatch Kodo was not played all that much. This one feels a bit stronger because it can go face. Still, handbuffs for hunter never really took off, so I don't really see a future for this card for now.
Dispatch Kodo could also go face. But Handbuffing in Hunter was always clunky, so it didn't see much play because of that. Handbuffing still seems a bit clunky to me. I believe Augmented Porcupine's biggest selling point is the fact it curves into Mok'Nathal Lion.
Flanking Strike will always be a more flexible card on this spot. But Flanking Strike was brutally busted, so tis card can see play, even when considering how slow it is.
Edit:Their Agency's name was ISIS (International Secret Intelligence Service ) but they shut it down in the Archer universe because of the real life terrorist group around 2014
If the Clefthoofs or whatever their name is could go face, it would make this card much more appealing in a more aggressive midrange deck. If they can go face, it will make this card worse in a more defensive build. Either way, not that great regardless.
isn't it same with magnetize ? For all units except humans like Magnetize being for only mechs but not any other minions ? I don't think this is the coolest ccg mechanic, i mean it is the most problematic ccg mechanic in my opinion. Look at what magnetic has done to Hearthstone for example.
Prologue was really cool, has someone lost in the last chapter or made Medivth appear? I silenced the minion that was supposed to invoke him and also a friend of mine so this may be scripted.
I hit legend last month and started with an 11 star multiplier.
What really shocked me though was even if I lost several games in a row (it happens to us all), my multiplier remained the same. So there is no cost to losing games... at least in that sense.
But then I hit Platinum 5 today. I still had a 2 star multiplier. So I only need to win 15 stars to hit legend, and I get two stars per win, and only one per loss. (I'm almost there.)
On the one hand, this is great. Maybe my MMR is higher than I suspected. My matches have for the most part been challenging, so it doesn't feel like I'm playing against easy opponents.
But if this keeps up, legend may become a quick breeze for those who've made it many times before (high MMR?) and much harder to others. Is that good? People who regularly make legend will get there faster. I suspect by the end of the month we will see a much higher legend pool than we normally do, and "high" legend will be very different from "dumpster" legend.
Yeah, same experience here, no easy wins, but that's not too bad because the multiplier makes up to this.
But... there's still diamond after platinum so you've got 45 stars to go, don't you? And if I remember correctly, the star bonus ends at rank 5 diamond at the latest and there also is no more win streak bonus from there on.

I believe DR Hunter can make a comeback and it does so because of this card mostly, even though this card is 9 times out of 10 a win more card.

Illidan's Prologue was pretty fun, I understand now why Metamorphisis is such a powerful tool

Yeah, I don't even want to know how expensive one of these are going to be.

Overflow or Nourish, you do't have to play kaelthas with 10 mana spells you still gain quite a bit of mana for 5+ cost spells.

If it does get changed after the second printing, it will make the first printing even more valuable.

You're actually able to use DH in older Adventures such as Nax, Blackrock, League, etc. (any adventure where you can make your own deck).
Instead, just choose the DH pre-made deck that was awarded for finishing the Prologue. Taking forever to level up...I'm only at 22 : /

April 7th is going to be nothing but DH mirror matches.

At least we don't have to play the class the way we were forced to in this prologue.
That Cenatius matchup was a joke.
The Ashes of Outland Demon Hunter Prologue is Live!
A little disappointed that the final battle with Cenarius wasnt a 'supposed to lose' fight.
At least we can see a little deeper how Maiev Shadowsong came to hate this guy.
