I assume that all imprisoned minions will take their effect if Maiev Shadowsong targets them.

For example; Imprisoned Antaen awakens, deals 10 damage split among all enemies you kill something with it and it stays alive then you target it with Maiev Shadowsong, after 2 turns, it deals 10 damage split among all enemies again. That's a slow effect but I just wanted to point it out.

Also, This makes "Awaken" a keyword. I prefer the word as bold in text rather than how it is right now if Maiev Shadowsong will interact cards like how i described above.

As far as I know they haven’t said anything about it, so I’d imagine it might be a little while until they add replacements (like how it took awhile for Rag and Sylvanas’s replacements to be added)

We know which priest cards will replace basic + classic cards but do we know the neutral replacements of hof cards ?

An aggressive Demon Hunter kit looks very solid with this powerful card draw tool! Since we have no other options this card will be in every DH deck for sure.

Surprised no one has mentioned that this is basically a cheaper, 2 turn black knight that takes up a spot on the board on your opps side. Pretty versatile on both sides of the board!

'' Just look at that shine! We know you want some. ''
Dragon sickness is a real issue, don't tease me ..Ooooo Shinny! 

At worse, a two turn freeze could be valuable for un-removable immediate threat.
At best, I could see some very interesting combo emerging from Maiev Shadowsong.
Also, I like how many character will now be able to play with themselves ^^

HAHAHAHAAHAHA

She's not even a class card for the class she's an alt hero for!

Quote From KANSAS

I mean yeah it is all upsides and I am glad to not have to worry about opening a third epic. But this isn't the huge economy change I thought we would get. It is good, but I just don't think it is enough to make the game more accessible to F2P players. 

If this change doesnt do it for ya, what are you looking for exactly? I open the mega bundle packs + whatever packs from gold I had saved so typically between 30-40 packs on top of that. I end up short some rares and a handful of good epics which leaves me pissy/hesitant about crafting those good rares/epics I didnt get. This new system prevents that. I cant imagine the frustration for F2P players that open a third of what I do and find huge gaps in their collection.  

Quote From Paquitopaq

In my case It happened when my connection is not that good and someone is using an app like netflix etc. And I can imagine now with the actual confinement it will be worst

What do you mean by "with the actual confinement"?

This expansion made me come back to Hearthstone.

Almost all of the legendary cards are my favorite warcraft characters so far.

Love you Maiev !

Also important: because Common cards are the only ones where the golden version disenchants for more than the non-golden version costs to craft, even if you have two non-golden copies of a common card that is rotating, you should craft golden copies until you have two of those as well, then, if you wish, disenchant them after the rotation.

Why, you ask? Simple:

If you have 2 non-golden Spellbreakers and no golden Spellbreakers, you'll be credited 80 dust.

If you take this opportunity to craft two golden Spellbreakers, you will spend 800 dust, then be credited 800 dust, then you can disenchant them for 100 dust. That's 20 more dust than you would have gotten otherwise!

When a minion goes Dormant, it will lose any buffs it had on it. When it reawakens it'll be a base copy of the minion.

seems like an absurd tempo card

Support for the dormant effects! And can also be used as a 2 turns freeze!

Proof that Blizzard knew about coronavirus for a year now. Maybe it's a bioweapon developed by Team 5 to punish wintraders, but it got out early.

well I mean if nothing else it removes taunt just like Spellbreaker would

Hope everyone is doing okay.
Me and the band I am in decided to hurriedly release our album a bit early amid the ever expanding changes we are facing in this whole world.
We are giving 100% of whatever money we make to The World Health Organization.
You can listen for free via Bandcamp if funds are understandably tight.
We play instrumental post-rock and I would like to say it's soothing to listen to during these times.
Hearthstone has been an awesome distraction, and so has this website. I love Flux and company for doing as much as they do..

Thanks for reading.

Lot of questions about this and how Dormant and buffs interact. But flavor is strong and the stats arent too bad for a 4 mana with a semi removal Battlecry.

This can actually be used to set up some neat combos. Spend seven mana to set your Brann Bronzebeard dormant on turn 8, for instance, and on turn 10 you'll have a guaranteed double C'Thun. That's just the simplest example. 

Otherwise, it's a great quasi-Spellbreaker. The upside can be very punishing for your opponent, but you need to know that you can commit to finishing them off before two turns are up. I like that interaction - for the dormant'd person, there's still hope, there's still a goal to fight for. It makes for tense moments. 

Nice, now I can play Rogue without playing Rogue! 

Also, I would like to know how this interacts with imprisoned Minions. 

I like this, if only because of how much it punishes the various different Rez/Big Priests that like to rely on big taunts to overrun the board and shut down the game.

I'm guessing Maiev causes the Imprisoned Demons effects to go off for a second time.

Love the flavor of the card, and its versatility! Makes for very interesting combos!

hey guys we hall of famed spellbreaker so we could print this bootleg version and make it a legendary.  

but really, I assume a dormant minion keeps all it's buffs/debuffs after going dormant?  this is a decent tempo card.  get a body, get rid of a thing until you're ahead on board and have attackers initiative to deal with  it.  Seems like something rogue would play.  

could be good, could sit in your collection till it rotates, hard to evaluate.  

i'm struggling to think of reasons you would want to use this on your own minion.  two turns makes it really hard to time when you'd use it to protect one of your minions.  you could use it on some of the "when this minion awakens" cards, but that seems incredibly slow.
