Interesting card, might see play in Battlecry Shaman. (So they can "Counter" Mirror matchups) It's fair statted but making hero powers cost 1 more isn't that good. BUT it is a good arena card.
This card is trying to kick Treespeaker out of the treant team now since it doesnt buff the treants up but directly to 5/5 stat instead. If there's a way to abuse use of this legendary card, then treespeaker is officially dead.
One of other mechanics of Demacia is Mageseekers. I would like to see them in the article as well but you forgot them because they didn't do well in the preview, I presume. :)
Demacians don't like magic so well, Tianna Crownguard wants Lux to be a warrior than a Mage and even their all in-game quotes are about that. So, thematically and mechanically Mageseeker cards that discards spells, synergizes with spells etc, is one of the mechanics and themes of the Demacia. Btw, the only silence-like cards in demacia as well, one is a spell, and one is a minion that has been reworked on second preview and she is a mageseeker too.
I am saying that because it is possible to see more Mageseeker cards in Demacia in future in my opinion.
Expecting to see more of them if there will be a champion in Mageseeker group.
this is the tech card i have been waiting for. good against ctrl warrior and quest druid obviously. might deal 20+ dmg to the enemy hero. good card against specific decks and running a vanilla 5/5 against other decks i not too bad of a punishment to put this in your deck. strong tech card as put earlier.
small doomsayer with some room to tinker around. i like the flexibility and anti aggro potential. sounds like a good card to delay the onslaught of aggro. i like.
looks good as you generally have a limited pool of 1 cost cards you can kind of predict what cards to expect. might be good in some classes. it won't see widespread play though
interesting card as class cards are usually stronger than neutrals. random class cards however might not be as good. if you want to play classcards instead of neutrals you can put 2 in your deck anyways so... i'll pass, ty
do you know that you can set your mana curve around this card ?
In a Zoo-like deck you can build a deck around it.
Prince Keleseth decks did not have 2-cost cards but still were too powerful. You can use 2-cost cards with it and make them cost 3 with this card. Almost same with Prince Keleseth.
it is easy to build a deck around mana curve. Simply put 1-cost cards to consider them 2-cost, put 2-cost cards consider them 3-cost etc.
Yes it is very strong because it makes big archetypes + zoo archetypes better at the same time.
3 mana 2/3s are generally weak. this looks like a jack of all trades with card generation and armor though. an lackeys are generally tempo cards so they can make up for the low tempo of the card itself. looks good to me
5 mana 4/5 is already slow. then you have a deathrattle which is slow aswell. then you have to fulfill a condition. it doesn't have taunt so the enemy could just set up a resistant board and ignore it. i can see it working but for me this is just a veeery slow card
might be ok but i don't think think is doing much. might be good in deathrattle priest if this exists after n'zoth leaves again but it has no immediate impact on the board. if it finds a misha it might be worth it just for the boardstate but i'm not impressed yet
I just tried to work it so much times in all classes but never worked because I couldn't remove Corrupted Bloods.
don't say it doesn't work because of this expansion's other powerful cards, I'm speaking for wild here. Happy that we can now use Hakkar, the Soulflayer with other than Paladin and Rogue.
Edit: Sorry, it is mentioned in card's thread by @UVE . Just checked it out yet.

3/4 for 3 mana is ok in arena...other than that...pack filler

Seems bad, 1 mana is not a big deal if that is all opponent does.
Zapp Slywick
Does anyone know if this guy has an extra effect while golden? Like Mega-Windfury or something.

I would try that. Don't see why people downvoted you...

Rest in peace Treespeaker, you will be missed!

[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
My gut instinct is Biology Project, but it misses any pun for the second line.
I'm avoided in-game, as I was in school, Nobody liked biology class.
For to play me, is to play the fool. It's not very good.
I was created for E.V.I.L, but equality I seek, Druid isn't an EVIL class, but it was still created by Dr. Boom. It's a symmetrical effect.
But the opponent wins out, and so I am weak. The opponent gets mana crystals without spending a card, making Biology Project kinda suck.

Tentacled Menace
good for top heavy decks like potentially paladin especially against aggro. don't know if the effect is strong enough to actually run it though

Frizz Kindleroost
this is just insane for any dragon deck
-1 mana would have been super strong already but this is just WOW
exactly what dragon decks need to make up for relatively low earlygame tempo
the "i wanna draw this first" of dragon mirrors
EVIL Quartermaster
3 mana 2/3s are generally weak. this looks like a jack of all trades with card generation and armor though. an lackeys are generally tempo cards so they can make up for the low tempo of the card itself. looks good to me
Chronobreaker
5 mana 4/5 is already slow. then you have a deathrattle which is slow aswell. then you have to fulfill a condition. it doesn't have taunt so the enemy could just set up a resistant board and ignore it. i can see it working but for me this is just a veeery slow card
Mindflayer Kaahrj
might be ok but i don't think think is doing much. might be good in deathrattle priest if this exists after n'zoth leaves again but it has no immediate impact on the board. if it finds a misha it might be worth it just for the boardstate but i'm not impressed yet
Bronze Explorer
more value when dragons need tempo imo. good that replaces itself with another dragon in hand ut a 3 mana 2/3 is just not good tempowise
Stormhammer
looks really strong to me. 3 mana 3/2 weapon is already played in hunter so this will be played if dragons make an appearance in hunter, too
if you don't wanna lose your weapon just atk when playing a dragon. easier to fulfill condition than eaglehorn bow imo

Treenforcements
i love the name of the card <3
an ok card, don't know if it's worth a slot in a deck though. not as good a the 2 saplings/2dmg one imo
