My guess is that she'll be a new paid hero, like Sylvanas. A lot of people are gonna be unhappy with that but I'm perfectly fine with it, as Sylvanas was one of the best skins to date, I have quite the high expectations for this one.
It should either be "Add this minion's Attack to the Attack of a random friendly minion" or "Set the Attack of a random friendly minion equal to this minion's Attack."
Personally, I think it should have been worded as “Deathrattle: Give a friendly minion Attack equal to this minion’s Attack” in order to be a lot clearer. This would still be fairly short but more in line with how other cards are worded and the effect would be immediately obviou
That sounds no less ambiguous to me. However, I think the key thing is neither wording uses the word 'set', which would be the norm if it was to, well, set the attack rather than provide a buff.
I expect Reno and the Fist of Ra-Den were just cards they really wanted to make, and since they are no harder to obtain than commons they could mix up rarities across classes without it making any meaningful inequality. I.e. the strength of the cards matters far more than the colour of the gem.
Personally I'm more interested in how they distributed the other rarities, which I imagine was primarily to guide how frequently they appear in the Arena.
As for whether they are worth $20, that depends on lots of things: how good they end up being (currently we can only guess for most of them); how likely you are to make use of the weaker ones; how much expendable income you have to spend on it; and how much you enjoy the adventure itself.
I tick enough boxes to know it will be worth it for me, but I cannot really answer for you.
A tech card. I doubt it will see play, but with those type of cards, you never know - under the right circumstances, it can be in almost any deck out there. But I seriously doubt it.
Awesome card. I am looking forward to see it and the rage of the opponent from the rng of the boom bots. The new 1-drop will make this work on it's own. Not considering any other synergies.

I like this one. Rogues have always problems to find a good play on t2 without the coin and usually end up hero powering, which is kinda awkward, if the opponent have >1 hp minion on his side of the board already. So, I can see this fit in some decks.
Now iOS won't open saying a new version of the game is available, yet the new patch still isn't on the app store. Can you at least wait until it's up on the store before disabling the old version?
If you could return minions from the board to your hand people would have infinite battlecries, infinite summons for things like Pack Leader and so on. I agree with you on the rest thoug
I really like the design of this card, including the demon tag. Probably not as exploitable as happy ghoul, but definitely similar.
Probably more exploitable? Damage dealt from board also counts, whereas you had to play healing cards to activate happy ghoul.
You need to deal 4 damage to an opponent's face to discount this to zero, which probably won't happen until turn 3 or later. If you can stick a 1 drop uncontested, then sure you can play this as a 2 mana 3/3, but that's a lot more fair than the old Healzoo nuts. I don't think you'd want to Soulfire this out on turn one.
The other thing is that there's no real counterplay to WL hitting himself and then healing back up, whereas if you know you're facing frenzied Felwing you can value not taking damage that much higher and use your resources accordingly.
I'M not sure I understand how it works. Does it buff a random minion with its attack or does it change a friendly minions attack to whatever it had at the time of death?
I would assume it is meant as a positive deathrattle, so it will be a buff of +(this minion's attack). I guess the possibility that it has more than 2 attack at the time of death makes it difficult to word with a clear, unambiguous + sign present. At least, not without it being clunky like my own attempt above, which I agree with the devs is OK reason to choose ambiguous wording in a digital card game (though I know others disagree).

New Warlock Minion - Fiendish Servant
Except it does set (replace) but adds (plus) the attack, it is a +X buff
New Mage Minion - Animated Avalanche
Khadgar and conjurer's calling are great with this
The Galakrond's Awakening Hearthstone Adventure Week 4 Cards - Showdown in Dalaran is LIVE!
so they were saying how the players would dictate the outcome of the story but with both teams defeating Galakrond what's the point?
I guess from a storytellers perspective having Galakrond just out there to destroy everything wouldn't allow for future expansions.
But will EVIL still have Dalaran and be a presence in the HS background?
what does EVIL even stand for?

Can you imagine how much complaining there would be if they locked playable cards behind a difficult fight?

It should either be "Add this minion's Attack to the Attack of a random friendly minion" or "Set the Attack of a random friendly minion equal to this minion's Attack."
