  • New Warlock Minion - Zzeraku the Warped

    Gonna be challenging to deal with it if this dragon actually stays survives. Slow or not, it's going to outvalue you if you don't stop it.

    Will see how it goes, it's very excited to see a powerful generator card.

  • Nithogg

    Pretty bad. I would call it below average in arena too, since you need to be ahead on the board for it to work and at that point there are much better win more cards than this.

  • New Neutral Minion - Bad Luck Albatross

    Looks good but with so many broken cards this expansion which decks can afford to play this I'm not sure.

  • Nithogg

    I'm not convinced this goes into just any Shaman deck: you'd have to be ahead on board to have a decent chance of the eggs hatching. One egg hatching is still worth it, but if neither hatches you fall behind further on board.

    But I agree that with quest it could be a different matter, since your opponent would have a hard time dealing with 4 eggs. Except with AoE of course, but if you force out AoE with a single card, that's good for a Quest Shaman.

  • Arcane Breath

    Seems like a card that can be included even in decks without synergy if you needed that extra cheap removal.

  • Dragoncaster

    This seems like an obvious auto include in Big Spell Mage.

  • Shaman Legendary Card Reveal - Bandersmosh

    Despite not thinking this is the best card, I always appreciate more additions to the Shudderflock. Not a race we see much of.

  • New Shaman Minion - Cumulo-Maximus

    This is just another Thunderhead quality card, definitely needs no explanation. Great card.

    Looks very similar to my fan-made card, except my own card deals damage as same to the overloaded crystals. This card needs 1 crystal only.

  • New Warlock Minion - Veiled Worshipper

    This card is pushing the zoo archetype of Galakrond warlock, and the same are doing the invoke cards of warlock.

    Drawing 3 cards while not losing tempo is very good for zoo, this card can be the reason to run Galakrond in the first place.

    Maybe the first time i'm interested in a zoo deck

  • New Shaman Spell - Lightning Breath

    This card is very strong, but if a thing like dragon shaman doesn't exist it will not see play. 

    If good/interesting dragons will show up, i'll surely try to play an Hagatha/dragons control deck, can't see the deck being any good but maybe it will be fun

  • Card Reveals - Cumulo-Maximus & Zzeraku the Warped

    they have. This is completely unnecessary and they won't run it

  • Shaman Legendary Card Reveal - Bandersmosh

    uhhhh...screw it I'm not editing my post

  • Card Reveals - Cumulo-Maximus & Zzeraku the Warped

    idk, people just tend to look at "big numbah" as an indicator of quality...even if it's essentially irrelevant these days.

    Big stats + effect are only useful if you can actually use them consistently, which Cumulo can't (at least no by himself in any currently viable deck)

    I personally blame Trump for this because he keeps reviewing cards as piles of stats instead of where they actually fit functionally.

  • Arcane Breath

    Another card generating cards. I know it's a trend for a while now, but whatever? Better than Magic Trick in the right deck, cyclone mages are gonna be happy.

  • Cumulo-Maximus

    it's easy to pull off and does a fair amount of damage on a minion that has good stats for cost with a relevant tribal tag for shaman.

    Yeah, this guy's strong

  • New Rogue Hero - Galakrond, the Nightmare

    We have to still see Shaman's Galakrond, but for now i think this is the strongest.

    Not only the fully evolved battlecry is insane, but for now rogue got the best invoke cards. Everytime you invoke you get a lackey too, and they are good in rogue, so even the invoke is a good effect.

    I'm pretty sure that Galakrond rogue will be a thing.

  • Zzeraku the Warped

    this guy's too slow to be an 8 mana do nothing.

  • Zzeraku the Warped

    Boy o Boy is this guy slow

    how often are you looking to hurt yourself on turn 8 or later?

    yeah he's got the stats of Ysera for a turn earlier but c'mon, I wanna play something that's got more bite than this guy on turn 8 

     

  • Bad Luck Albatross

    It's not terrible stat wise.

    yeah it can potentially ruin your opponents card draw but that's kinda minor

     

  • New Shaman Minion - Bandersmosh

    There are so many legendarys with effects that maybe not amazing, but not bad on a 5 mana 5/5. There are some pretty good highrolls, and some lowrolls, and some mid-rolls, but I think most of the time this will be worth it. The only legendaries that are really bad are the ones that have extra stats and a negetive effect such as The Beast or King Mukla, or the ones that require you to build your deck around them spesifically, such as Tess Greymane or any of the highlander legendarys. But most legendarys are at least alright as a 5 mana 5/5, and if you get a bad one just wait a turn, I could see this being played in a midrange shaman deck as a last resort or just as a possible swing card. 

    Really though, these kinds of cards have never been good. Shifter Zerus, Chameleos, Molten Blade, none of those cards are playable. I do think this is the best card they have made with this kind of effect, but this kind of effect just isn't good enough. 

    I know that if I open this guy, I will play him in some sub-optimal wonky midrange/control shaman, but he will not be good enough for competitive play.

  • New Neutral Minion - Hot Air Balloon

    Good card! Not sure if better 1 drop mech than [Hearthstone Card (Mecharoo) Not Found] But definitively a contender

  • Dragoncaster

    I love how powermetal this is so I'm going to give it a very favorable score.

    But in all honesty Mage's love casting FREE SPELLS

    especially FREE BIG SPELLS 

    yeah it stat line sucks but most mage minions have crap stats for their effects.

     

  • New Neutral Minion - Devoted Maniac

    Meh card, but invoke can be quite good. Not the worst Invoke card but I expect better

  • Descent of Dragons

    I'm sure there will be one in Jan or Feb.

  • Dragoncaster

    I f dragon mage becomes a thing ( and it probably will), this card will be an auto-include, especially in control decks as clearing enemy minions often mean a tempo loss on the board. I could see this in some kind of big spell or reno mage. Way better than Solia as it comes one turn earlier even if the requirements won't be met sometimes.
