This will fit in nicely into deathrattle rouge which is shaping up to look like quite the powerhouse. You'd ideally want to target Infectious Ghoul for the memes

Good early game value for concoction rouge. As we've seen with Pharaoh Cat and other 1 drops in rogue, this guy will see a lot of play.

They probably watched too much rick and morty idk

Twisted Tether is super strong!

Historically 4 mana hard removal comes for Warlock with a downside. Now this card is a 4 mana hard removal with no downside and if you play undeads even with a big upside.

This is a really big power creep!

What is Halduron doing in this artwork? The background looks like the arcane bolts are raining down, but that's not what the foreground looks like. 

I'm guessing you get more of them, not one bigger beast. 

Though Devourer of Souls was a dungeon boss, not a raid one.

And I still remember both raid encounters all too well. Good times. 

"Hunter is going to be Team Silvermoon this expansion."

"But I wanna bring back Build-a-Beast!"

"Ugh, fine, you get one card."

"Can I do anything special with it, maybe add some mana-che..."

"-NO! You may reference it and that's that!"

Obviously this isn't just a gimmick for Zoo to rez some trashy 2-drop, but what's the actual ideal target for this?

Basically the Paladin spell but with destruction instead of just neutering which might be more relevant, but I struggle to think of any Undead that would benefit from beefy stats (outside of just being a beatstick)

"Fake" seems like stretching it a little too much, considering it's all new cards within the context of the new upcoming expansion. The Death Knight Showmatch has certainly made it all somewhat of a strange territory to navigate with its semi-reveals (or spoilers/leaks) ahead of time, as is. We had to try our best and use our best judgment here and there.

"Re-revealed" might actually be all kinds of awkward in terms of a headline, and potentially even more confusing for people not following along with the whole reveal season. We can debate the merits of anything, but 2 Legendaries thrown together for one person to show is fairly unusual (do mind that we do not only cover the cards, but generally also try to shout out the reveals themselves). What with Blizzard throwing all these packages of cards together and even repeating cards from the expansion announcement at times. 

However, we could at most look into sorting it a little better within, to have the brand new cards up top and the strictly "repeat" Legends in its own place, so nobody feels particularly confused or misled. Also do note it's been clearly mentioned there that they've been actually seen before during the Showmatch, which is something we generally tried to include everywhere for the sake of clarity. Last but not least, until said official reveal we only had the more or less blurry card arts to show for anything that's slipped through the cracks. 

An okay way to double up on your eggs, but other than that it just doesn't feel that good. There's just not enough good deathrattle available for Warlock

Very underwhelming set for Warlocks. Lots of disjointed stuff with no real gameplan.

We got Egg Zoo back, but I don't see anything that makes it any better or even distinct from Implock.

Then you got Discard but with no real payoff outside of a wacky midrange value plan that's still inconsistent because despite being able to combine Discard with Discover in DH it's apparently too strong for Warlock.

Then there's some weird undead ressurection stuff that probably won't go anywhere.

Guess it's just gonna be Imp-Curselock again...

Who hurt you? Why do you always espouse so much negativity 

Halduron seems really unexciting, even if he might be fine in practice: do you feel good playing a Spider Tank that doesn't do anything immediately?

Splitting the hair in half as always, huh?

If we really wanna cross all the Ts, the two Legendaries have never been revealed to begin with: they were leaked during the DK event from last week. Factually, this is the first time they were revealed, although we were already aware of their existence.

Moreover, there's a solid chance that some people didn't get to take a look at the leak article or, who knows, they deliberately chose to ignore it: for these users, both Devourer of Souls and Dar'Khan Drathir are totally new cards.

Remember that this site (like many others) cover news for many kinds of players: something you find useful may be irrelevant for others, but the other way around can also happen - always be respectful!

"New" Legendries revealed. This is fake news within the context of this website. 

Just say Re-Revealed

This is actually a really interesting lore tidbit - thanks for sharing it with us!

Cool idea for an archetype, but I don't know about it. Halduron in particular looks extremely dull; are you ever excited to play him? Could've been +2 to bring more punch.

Devourer of Souls is actually Blizzard being super-lazy with boss models. Reliquary was a boss in Black Temple, Devourer was a boss in Icecrown Citadel. They just took a boss from an expansion ago and painted it red.

I like the callback to Crystalsong Portal. Very similar artwork, too.

Excited to watch the MarkMcK video of the Dra’Khan OTK in 2-3 weeks!

Two cards that have Deathrattle synergy - Devourer of Souls, Shallow Grave - but only one card with Deathrattle for Warlock this expansion - Amorphous Slime

I kinda aggree that this steps on the legendaries toes a bit too much for the same set. Maybe Halduron could do ALL spells or do hand AND deck to feel more worthy of a  legendary.

Overall I like this card though. Feels like it pays for itself easily with just 1 hit and anymore is icing on the cake.

While I worry hunter doesn't have enough Arcane to make these 2 cards worth much I appreciate spell school matters cards. Makes things much more interesting. Especially on a class that doesn't have a lot of spell schools to start with.
