  • New Neutral Minion - Vrykul Necrolyte

    Its not bad, but not that great neither.

    The effect is fairly mild, but its also easy enough to get this onto a 1 drop, where most that isn't Irondeep Trogg are usually ignored on 1.

  • New Neutral Minion - Foul Egg

    Just love eggs.

    The best part about this card is that it's only 1 mana, and so if you want egg shenanigans this makes it about as easy as it gets.

    How is this an undead though? Surely we're not labelling eggs the same tribes as the hatchling. But if team5 sets it as an undead, then we should be presuming that its deliberate, through some amount of play testing.

  • New Neutral Minion - Shatterskin Gargoyle

    This is actually a really great arena card. Can get really annoying there. Other than that, won't see much play. Nice undead to get off The Scourge though.

  • New Neutral Minion - Arms Dealer

    A decent little 1 drop that does what it needs to do.

    Unfortunately, I dont think it'll see much play. The problem is that to get value it needs to stay alive, and then the value it brings is hardly that great.

    Probably more likely to be seen in an unholy DK deck where swarms of undead are usually expected. But outside of that Im not optimistic.

     

  • New Neutral Minion - Umbral Geist

    Could be a fun meme in warlock with Tamsin. Or used in thief priest or burgle rogue. This has the same stats as Starscryer and being a neutral, should see some play in different decks.

  • New Neutral Minion - Arms Dealer

    This minion would work well with the DK HP and spells like Graveyard Shift. Don't underestimate this 1 drop, it'll see play.

  • New Neutral Minion - Drakkari Embalmer

    Can't think offhand what undead you'd want to give reborn, I guess any if you're playing DK. Most undead deathrattle minions could benefit from this effect. Could even combo this with Infectious Ghoul for some shenanigans. 

  • New Neutral Minion - Incorporeal Corporal

    And so the power creep continues... This is a free 5 damage to face and a guaranteed undead dead the turn it attacks. Great for all those undead requirements. If aggro unholy DK is a thing, this card will be in it. Might even work in face hunter.

  • New Neutral Minion - Nerubian Vizier

    This is good spell generation and mana cheating and most times you'll meet to requirement coz you'll only be playing this in an undead deck. I'm assuming the spell will be for your class and not a random spell from any class.

  • New Neutral Minion - Plaguespreader

    Even more disruption but this time in meme epics. There's better disruption currently and this effect is triggered off a deathrattle so your opponent can just play around it.

  • New Neutral Minion - Tenacious San'layn

    A good minion to get off evolve/random effects, or in arena. Doubt anyone will be adding it to their deck though. 

  • New Neutral Minion - Vrykul Necrolyte

    I can see this minion seeing play, maybe in an aggro unholy DK or token druid. It's 2 bodies, with 1 having rush so it's good corpse generation in the early game.

    Plaguespreader might well be the most insane disruption tech introduced, and Im noticing a change in design philosophy from team5. Apparently the idea is that you can get away with printing completely broken stuff just as long as you print plenty of tech against it. They really need to balance this properly, because much as I dont like the idea of losing to waves of OTKs out of nowhere its incredibly frustrating trying to play niche decks because your win con gets constantly sniped.

    Other interesting cards;

    - Incorporeal Corporal is really interesting because its basically a 2 mana deal 5 damage to face. Because why would anyone waste removal options on a card that will die after attacking anyway. But 5 damage to face for an aggro deck is hardly insignificant, and if nothing else this is still an undead body on board which means you're virtually guaranteed a target for something.

    - Nerubian Vizier is the best "after an undead died last turn" card so far. Because unlike the rest, this effect is not only strong the body is a desirable 3/4 as well. Only problem is to fit in another undead for this to trigger and for that reason its unlikely to replace Venomous Scorpid. But in aggro decks, this may be a decent option to consider.

    - Tenacious San'layn is hard to evaluate because it'll likely never manage an attack. But because this has lifesteal it should be respected. Imagine having this on board against something like implock. If they dont have specific removal for it, they might have to just ram their stuff into this twice, if not more.

    Does umbral geist add from any class? There are a total of 3 hits in rogue and all of them are pretty good.

    Tenacious sanlayan looks so out of place here, every other card here has its obvious merits, meanwhile it’s a big dumb lifesteal idiot that’ll ever so slightly burns face in the unlikely scenario it attacks

    Flesh Behemoth gives you tempo when you don't need it. Even if there were a negative battlecry worth avoiding in current-year Hearthstone, it wouldn't be worth dodging on turn nine. This can become worthwhile value in Arena alone.

    Infectious Ghoul is bad Greybough. Which is good insofar as we don't need more Greybough in the game. There's a noticeable dearth of effects that grant Rush in Standard right now which is keeping these cards in check out of playability. Banshee, for example, is just a scaled-down Infectious Ghoul again.

    Shatterskin Gargoyle's 4 damage is too random to justify its cost, keeping with the trend of modern Standard being weirdly light on decent neutral Taunts. This is an expensive Sen'jin Shieldmasta in Arena.

    Brittleskin Zombie: Will be just as beloved and employed by the playerbase as Shadowed Spirit.

    Umbral Geist has a tiny chance of maybe being a thing in Priest . . . ? But now that I think about it, it pollutes the Deathrattle pool. And jank Deathrattles were on the weak side of things before Big Priest was in Standard. My optimism may be unfounded.

    Foul Egg is another egg.

    Arena cards and little more. The dev's love of packfiller continues. And if Death Knight comes out over-strong in Arena, I don't know how much fun these cards will be since they'll be so much stronger for Death Knight over everyone else.

    Incorporeal Corporal  might be my favourite pun in the game
