Lack of healing is what is keeping Neferset Thrasher and Diseased Vulture back at the moment. But I don't know how many dragons you'd be able to fit into a deck with those cards. Crowd Roaster would fit into a tempo deck. Perhaps Twilight Drake is good enough as a tribal Yeti, but to get Yeti stats you have to draw or at least skip on some of your early turns if you go first. Dragonmaw Scorcher is a good card in more defensive decks, but maybe not if you're a tempo deck that wants to go wide. So I guess it depends on what new dragons we'll see. I don't think Crazed Netherwing would fit, since it would be a bad play if you're ahead and in a tempo deck you probably don't have the ability to draw a lot of cards early to allow for situational cards.
Hellfire with a 1 mana 5/5 attached seems ridiculously strong. Despite the conditional battlecry, I like this a lot better than Abyssal Enforcer, as it comes down at a point where it's far more relevant (not unlike Duskbreaker in Priest).
Interesting idea. Double [Hearthstone Card (Netherbreath) Not Found] plus single Soulfire is 24/28 with Malygos in play. I'm not counting 2nd Soulfirehere because I tend to discard the 2nd with the 1st.
Depends on the dragons that fit the deck though. Right now I guess you could run Twilight Drake, [Hearthstone Card (Deranged Netherwing) Not Found] and probably Ysera. Doesn't seem enough to me to guarantee that you get the extra damage out of [Hearthstone Card (Netherbreath) Not Found]. Not sure if you need that though or if you can get some damage in throughout the course of the game that makes these 4 extra hitpoints obsolete.
This is insanely good. It's basically Spellstone in Darkbomb format. This is the strongest 2-mana removal ever printed.
This essentially fills the void that Spirit Bomb couldn't. Now we have an efficient way to deal with snowballing early drops.
Not to mention, this can go face and benefits from Spelldamage, meaning there are possible Malygos shenanigans (not even OTK, just as some sort of finisher).
Don't forget that Warlock has yet to get its class legendary dragon, which could be a massive wincondition.
The obvious comparison is Duskbreaker, which was extremely good. This comes one turn later, which could be a concern, but provides much better stats to make up for it. The self-damage could be an issue, but Nether Breath helps there. And in Wild, Lesser Amethyst Spellstone turns the self-damage into an upside.

Just wanted to say I've played a little with the deck and I REALLY like it. What I like about secret mage is it has the tools to beat any deck. With the inclusion of highlander cards and some control elements this deck is even better at doing that! I also put an Eater of Secrets in instead of Loatheb as there's so many secret mages on the ladder.
Thanks again for the great deck and congrats on making it into the Weekend of Wild Decks list, most deserved!
Better Abyssal Enforcer and almost as good as Duskbreaker which Warlock doesn't need, because they have Hellfire anyways.
Basically this might finally give Warlock the last piece of Boardclear they were missing to successfully make it to lategame.
Now you have a great Removal curve of Hellfire, Netherwing, Siphon Soul, Godfrey, Nether
Warlock also makes the best use out of Twilight Drake, so we already have a great neutral dragon that's a good play on curve as well as later on.
Also, and this is just speculation, Malylock was a thing way back when. With the new Spell we have a very strong face damage spelll (that also heals) and let's not forget that Plot Twist and Dollmaster Dorian are a thing, meaning with an empty deck you could theoretically play Dorian + Plot Twist with Maly in hand and have 3 mana left for some spell action....and that's just with the current cards, who knows what else we're getting.
Abyssal Drake incoming boys. Seems like a strong card for Control Warlocks if they end up existing.
Amethyst Spellstone was good, so this should be good as well. Warlock is in dire need of heals outside of Broodmother and Khartut.
And to the skeptics, I say that Draconic Lackey will be the missing link in activating this dragon, because obviously you will always run some kind of lackey generation in Warlock. I hope they get even more good dragons, class card or neutral to really make it shine.
Also, there is zero chance that is even possible. I feel beyond insulted that someone would say that sentence on this website. I don't think people really grasp how shit HearthPwn has always been.
You know what though, if you like it so much, you're more than welcome to spent time on their site instead of here. Enjoy the constant malware, at least twice as long load times, and a bunch of people that clearly don't know what they are doing.
This is a really good card even if it seems like Drain Soul ,the extra 2 damage /healing is not something to laugh at for a 2 mana card . This would be better compared with the warlock spellstone from last expansion with the small downside that it can't get to 6 damage but with the big upsite that it costs 2 less and that it can go face.
To be fair they're not just Hellfires but Hellfires on a stick, which is a pretty remarkable aspect since you can contest the board now.
Moreover, we haven't seen most of the Dragons, so it's foolish to assume that these two cards will be the only payoff for playing Dragon. I mean, if you were right, then all the other classes (and the expansion as a whole) would fail
Yup, i also wanted to point out mobile perspective (which is my only HS-related perspective).
Sometimes full-screen ads appear when clicking on a link (requires to click on the X to continue browsing, not a scam, but still an intermediate ad page).
And just recently the top ad in every page started to occupy about half height (requiring the user to scroll down much further to reach content).
As i said, i do understand the need of ads, not complaining here, but please do consider the limitations of mobile browsing, if possible ofc.
If dragons are going to be a thing in warlock this expansion this card is going to be amazing . It's such a powerful card when you are behind that also has the possibility to end games.
Nether Breath

Warlock Card Reveals - Crazed Netherwing & Nether Breath
Hellfire plus a 1 mana 5/5, as well as basically warlock eviscerate. Probably worth it
Warlock Card Reveals - Crazed Netherwing & Nether Breath
Two good cards, would love to see Dragon based Warlock come together. Long way to go yet though.
Warlock is my favourite class but I dislike Zoo, meaning it's been tough lately. Quest has been fun though.
New Warlock Spell - Nether Breath
Excellent card! Minion removal or face damage with lifesteal if you're playing a dragon deck!
New Warlock Minion - Crazed Netherwing
Solid stats with hellfire effect (that doesnt hurt your hero)? Count me in!
New Warlock Minion - Crazed Netherwing
5 Mana Hellfire with a 5/5 dragon body. Great card!

New Warlock Spell - Nether Breath
Straightforward card. Expect to see this as a staple card in every control handlock with twilight drakes.
Crazed Netherwing
when you cleared the board with Hellfire on turn 4 and they play more minions

Hi. Eater of Secrets is a great choice against secret mage, much better than Loatheb. Even if you play Loatheb against secret mage, they can still reduce the cost of secrets via Kabal Lackey or Kirin Tor Mage. Good choice. Combination of Eater of Secrets and Reno Jackson should make every secret mage cry:)
Thank you and have fun with it!
Malygos, Aspect of Magic
I was about to ask where you can see all the upgraded spells and then found it. Crikey there is some good value in there isn't there!?
So far the two mage reveals look great, keep them coming please Blizzard.

Is there a chance for dragon warlock in wild?
WIth azure drake, twilight guardian, blackwing corruptor and such?
This card seems very promising, but maybe not for standard.
Voted 4 stars.
