RIP Sound the Bells cheese in Dalaran Heist, you will be missed.
Also, this is the first time Blizzard changed a mechanic to work against established rules for the sake of eliminating an OTK.
At first I was kind of apprehensive because I really don't like the idea of nuking future synergies just because of one specific combo (which Mechwarper is more responsible for than anything else really), but at least they're giving out reasonable refunds.
I think this boy is much more scarier than it looks. If the opponent has just a single minion and you manage to remove it with this guy, he's in a pretty bad spot.
With commanding shout this is a 10 mana full clear that leaves you with a 12/1 which seems great if you draw this with galakrond you'll get left with something way bigger I think it would work in most decks being able to clear the board and maybe keep it on board seems great
4 damage when you play it and then only 1 damage on the next turn. It's a nice early weapon for Galakrond warrior that helps activate Scion of Ruin as soon as possible.
its like hellfire except a bit weaker but also stronger since its cheaper easy to pop divine shields and could handle N'zoth if he was still in standard when this came. I can't see myself running this in a deck but I do expect it to be useful when coming from random effects.
Echo Mechanics Update - SN1P-SN4P, Sound the Bells! and Glinda Crowskin Refunds!
Are they just giving us the value in dust or do we get full value back if we disenchant?
New Neutral Minion - Big Ol' Whelp
Pretty basic card, my only concern that all of this not-so-cool dragons are going to pollute the pool of random dragons.

New Shaman Minion - Surging Tempest
A balanced Tunnel Trogg, nice! Shaman’s new go-to-1-drop.
New Neutral Minion - Evasive Wyrm

New Shaman Spell - Invocation of Frost
Regarding the 2/1 rush, this is really good! Sweet anti-aggro tool in Shamakrond.
New Neutral Minion - Scalerider
really strong tool for early control, and dragons decks usually are greedy enough to need this
New Neutral Minion - Gyrocopter
Seems a solid pick in arena, but won't see play out of it.
Descent of Dragons
can't you tell from her seductive scale and voluptous wings?
but seriously, she is, it's hard to tell with dragons, but the lore doesn't lie
New Neutral Minion - Skyfin
Not good enough in standard for now, but a fun addition for menagerie decks in wild.
New Warrior Minion - Scion of Ruin
so it's like that worgen except 2X better since it summons clones I don't think there's a reason to not run this in galakrond warrior
Hearthstone Update - December 5th Patch Notes (Battlegrounds Updates, New Cards in January, the Return of Tyrande and More!)
They’re actually offering the Wild expansions and adventures for gold now and giving Tyrande for free again
Someone pinch me, this couldn’t possibly be real.
New Shaman Minion - Squallhunter
Hard to remove and shaman have a lot of cheap damage spells, nice! Other archetypes will be stronger but this is not bad. Also: Frog synergy
New Neutral Minion - Blazing Battlemage
strong for every zoo o token, but not as OP as it seems
New Mage Minion - Mana Giant
Very gooooooooooood card for my quest giants deck, I love it!!!!
New Warrior Minion - Sky Raider
A good 1 drop for pirate warrior or even aggro decks that helps you not run out of cards too early on.
New Priest Spell - Grave Rune
This effect is insanely strong in the right decks .. if you manage to use this in any summon on big priest is GG easily!
Echo Mechanics Update - SN1P-SN4P, Sound the Bells! and Glinda Crowskin Refunds!
Great, I actually had a random Glinda in my collection and was short on dust.
Edit: and a golden Sound the Bells!, glorious
New Neutral Minion - Wing Commander
in a dragon deck fits very well i think, 6/5 most of times easily
New Warrior Spell - Awaken!
Looks like a 1 mana cheaper Swipe that requires you to take face damage. Not as bad as it seems.
New Warrior Minion - Deathwing, Mad Aspect
With commanding shout this is a 10 mana full clear that leaves you with a 12/1 which seems great if you draw this with galakrond you'll get left with something way bigger I think it would work in most decks being able to clear the board and maybe keep it on board seems great
New Neutral Minion - Hoard Pillager
I already hate this guy... Seeing this equipping an Arcanite Reaper in the hands of a pirate warrior is NOT going to be fun...
New Neutral Minion - Faceless Corruptor
I think this boy is gonna be auto-included in every aggro-token deck by now.
New Warrior Weapon - Ritual Chopper
4 damage when you play it and then only 1 damage on the next turn. It's a nice early weapon for Galakrond warrior that helps activate Scion of Ruin as soon as possible.
New Warlock Spell - Rain of Fire
its like hellfire except a bit weaker but also stronger since its cheaper easy to pop divine shields and could handle N'zoth if he was still in standard when this came. I can't see myself running this in a deck but I do expect it to be useful when coming from random effects.
