  • New Mage Minion - Azure Explorer

    Seems powerful to me, if you are looking to control the board and get mroe value this card is really good, dragon mage has been a thing as well in early RoS so it might be back, mage has some cheap spells to control the board.

  • New Priest Minion - Fate Weaver

    invoking twice is hard then. cause both this and the warlock card that draw 3 are really strong.

    how easy can you invoke twice really? in priest we have Assassinate + invoke to do one proc, we saw 2 neutrals one at 4 mana and one at 5 mana, so I doubt you can actually play this card on curve...

     

  • New Neutral Minion - Twin Tyrant

    This is a card you'd like to get from random effects (Evolve shenanigans, Conjurer's Calling, Dragon Roar, Astral Rift,...) but wouldn't actually put in your decks.

    Some people were saying the same about Dragonmaw Scorcher and Crowd Roaster, so I guess we should just wait and see

  • New Paladin Spell - Sand Breath

    Divine Strength + divine shield? sounds great... finally a decent dragon synergy card for paladin..

  • New Rogue Spell - Candle Breath

    so.. another 3 mana draw 3 with deck restriction.. hmm .. Raiding Party was surely stronger but ti's still 3 mana(or 1 with prep) draw 3...

     

  • New Druid Spell - Breath of Dreams

    Quote From iWatchUSleep

    Old Wild Growth + draw a card for a dragon druid? 
    Really strong if that becomes a thing.

    Also, would the 'gain a mana crystal' part trigger if the card you draw is a dragon?

    I'm not sure, but do you remember Lesser Amethyst Spellstone? If you draw it with Kobold Librarian it will get an upgrade.

    I know this time is different since Breath of Dreams is the card you play and not the one you draw, but if it will happens I won't be surprised

  • New Hunter Minion - Dwarven Sharpshooter

    Quote From Almaniarra
    Quote From DoubleSummon

    we had a 2 mana 2/3 that had the same effect this card powercreep that card but that card never saw any play and hunter was all about the face back then.. looks good.

    and that card was an epic, this is a common. That means it is easier to test than the old one. :)

    And you know.. this is the aspect that annoys me the most in HS you can't test cool stuff (back then "control hunter") cause you need to invest so much dust into it.. back then if you wanted to start to test that card you had to pay 800 dust.. ye.. feels bad..

    I don't think this card is about testing.. you 100% drop it into your highlander hunter anyway and there are some other cards that care about hero powering so maybe that's a thing?

    Just when you thought Odd Hunter was meant to be a Facedeck!

  • New Rogue Spell - Candle Breath

    Just a little side thought: imagine how this card would have been with pre-nerf Preparation.

    Now Rogue can get high cost playable spells too.

  • Hearthstone - Telling a Year Long Narrative Recap

    The Year of the Dragon narrative has definitely been fun and well executed.

    Interesting panel. There was a lot of random chit-chat that didn't really give us anything interesting so it was not included.

    The Metzen story was awesome though. The panel really was one of those ones where watching it was more valuable than reading a recap, which is unfortunate for those without a virtual ticket.

  • New Paladin Spell - Sand Breath

    More Dragon synergy Pog

  • New Priest Minion - Fate Weaver

    This is going to be one of the best arts of the whole set: incredibly stunning. I really hope to unpack this one even if I won't play Priest.

  • New Mage Minion - Azure Explorer

    Not really sold on the stats: Cosmic Anomaly but dragon, with a weaker body and a discover effect attached to it

  • New Warlock Spell - Fiendish Rites

    Impferno has seen zero play and this card is not really different from it.

    I guess it will all come down to how much Galakrond will be good

  • Descent of Dragons

    Is it just me or is warlock gonna be broken? So  far Rafaams warlock cards seems pretty nuts and invoke two imps ON BOARD on most cards is a lot for sure, even grim rally is useful, or any cards that requires a sacrifice.

     

    And drawing 3 cards is for tempo play when you really need cards, it even synergies with quest.

    And the lackeys will support warlock too..

    And those jumbo imps has super synergy with invoke minions when played...not to mention the hero card can summon up to 4 demons on the board...

    Call me crazy, but I think Rafaam is gonna defy the meta with warlocks for sure, cause he is THE SUPREME ARCHAEOLOGIST after all.

  • Hearthstone - Telling a Year Long Narrative Recap

    • Blizzard's culture before Hearthstone launched was very much about big, epic moments. Hearthstone didn't really fit that, it was "the cute sibling".
    • Jeramiah's most terrifying career moment was pitching the GVG music idea to Chris Metzen.

    This moment must has been really really tense for him... Kinda makes hearthstone what it is today

  • Descent of Dragons

    Nice job updating on the card reveals so quickly guys! However there are like 3 cards from the Expansion Reveal video with Alec Dawson currently missing. These are Nozdormu the Timeless, Molten Breath and Dragon's Hoard. 

  • New Warlock Minion - Veiled Worshipper

    We don't know yet what does invoke do for warlock, every invoke card has extra hidden text based on the dragon's hero power for the class so it's too early to judge how strong invoke cards for warlock are.. 

    Edit: every warlock invoke card has "battlecry: summon 2 imps" as well, so the cards are fine if you run a swarm heavy deck.. impzoo.

  • New Hunter Minion - Dragonbane

    Quote From JoeyJojo48

    Oh hey it's Inspire. I really wish they'd keep using the keywords they've created (e.g. "Inspire" vs. "After you use your hero power...; "Echo" vs. "Repeatable this turn."; "Recruit" vs. "Summon from your deck."; etc.). Otherwise, why bother making the keyword in the first place?

    Didn't they explain it to make the game more accessible to general casual players? So they don't have to remember many keywords and gave up in the process

    Well Inspire and Echo (especially this one) are kinda obvious and easy to understand in my opinion. Recruit may be confused with "summon from hand" instead of "summon from deck", but the other two should be reused (see SN1P-SN4P for example)

  • New Rogue Hero - Galakrond, the Nightmare

    Quote From Starscream

    Unbelievably powerful. Turn 7, draw FOUR CARDS, and each costs ZERO????

    Game over on turn 7? Leeroy, eviscerate, eviscerate, cold blood... you can imagine the possible combos. 

    People miss an important thing about Galakrond: if you want to get as much value as possible from him, just can't just jam it on turn 7 most of the times.

    Before that, you have to play 2 cards (or 3, I don't remember) with the Invoke mechanic, which are kinda awkward (see the 4 mana 2/2 with Rush, not really a Rogue card).

    I'm not saying that Galakrond won't see play (I in fact think the opposite, even more that they're completely free for everyone), but if they decided to release such card it means that they have their own reasons.

  • Galakrond, the Wretched

    Summoning Two Imps everytime you invoke is pretty nuts if you ask me. You can even use them as sacrifice for even better aggressive/tempo style decks. It might be possible to make a token version with this card.

    Some cards might get more playable to like those 8/8 imps.

    I c what Rafaam want us to do with our warlock decks now. Almost every warlock card has synergys with sets of cards this year  combined this set... Everything starts to make sense now. 

    If the Prophecy is true, Rafaam will FINALLY RULE THE WORLD AS THE SUPREME ARCHAEOLOGIST

  • Everything We Know About Hearthstone Battlegrounds - Upcoming Autochess Game Mode

    Seems really cool to me, but is it really accurate to call this a game "mode" for HS? Seems like an entirely different game heavily based on HS.
