  • New Warrior Minion - Silverfury Stalwart

    That's a big pile of stat, Taunt is nice, but it is unwisely paired with rush, which sort of defeats the purpose ...
    Not bad, but too expensive for my liking

  • New Neutral Minion - Scourge Rager

    Kinda seems decent, for a Rager that is..! ^^

  • New Death Knight Minion - Deathchiller

    Well hello Flamewaker but WAY better due to being cheaper AND in Frost DK which is all about combo-y strategies, drawing cards and mana cheating a little bit. This is probably on of the biggest reasons why you play Frost-DK.

    Honestly why did they have to make a powercrept Flamewaker when the original is already a super strong card? They really want DK to be strong in both standard and wild.

    (Im assuming to 2 random enemies can hit the same target twice, if it cant then nvm its not better than Flamewaker.)

  • New Death Knight Spell - Frost Strike

    2 mana deal 3 has always been good, and this almost always kills a minion so you get the discover. This seems like a Tooth of Nefarian but better, and that card already sees a lot of play. Oh and getting a frost rune card is good, considering your already playing Frost DK for a reason.

    Quote From Firenza

     You'd think that extra draw would at least cost a corpse or two.

    Or be 2(+) runes, to be stricly better version of different class card

  • New Death Knight Minion - Harbinger of Winter

    Interesting minion. This seems good in frost DK, but in frost DK every revealed spell so far is a frost spell. And a lot of the Frost DK cards so far have frost spell synergy. So while it says "draw a frost spell" it actually just a "draw a spell" card. So the spell school tutor here isnt really worth much, especially considering the fact that with all the frost-spell synergy you might not even want to run a unholy/blood rune spell considering those aren't frost spells. (Do you really want to wiff with Overseer Frigidara?)

  • New Death Knight Minion - Lord Marrowgar

    Hmm im not convinced about this card. It's a HUGE pay-off that can instantly win the game as long as you got plenty of corpses, which should be easy considering you have to play ONLY unholy runes. But that's THE big downside of this card. You can't rune ANY Frost or Blood runes. So no frost rune for draw spells and other good cards, no Blood rune for cards like Patchwerk or Obliterate which might be nice for removing big minions.

    Honestly the more amazing 1 rune cost DK cards i see, the worse the 3-rune cost cards look. I feel like we need to see some more INSANE 3 rune cost cards before i would ever even think about running 3 runes of the same type.

    More powerful cards for frost death knight

    Deathchiller - 

    A 2 mana flamewaker is of course really good, especially with cards like horn of winter and glacial advance in death knight’s arsenal, it might want alittle more card draw/generation than what we currently see, I still can’t imagine this not seeing play atleast eventually

    Harbinger of winter - 

    A nice 2 drop that tutors a spell is as good in death knight as it is in every other class

    Rimefang sword - 

    A really nice weapon for frost death knight, let’s them discount their spells and is a nice target for runeforging

    Might of menethil - 

    Seems like another nice weapon for frost death knight, it might be kicked out by rimefang, if they want the discount or it’ll kick rimefang out if they want the efficient stall, maybe both will make the cut

  • New Death Knight Weapon - Rimefang Sword

    Okay so first of all, this gets tutored by Runeforging and gets lowered to only 2 mana, making this a 2 mana 2/3 that can mana cheat a bit. It seems like a really good weapon, it helps you contro lthe board by killing enemy minions and even without Runeforging discount, it still is technically a 0 mana 2/3 weapon as long as you discount a spell with each hit. This card seems really good for this combo-y Frost DK style of play.

  • 4 New Death Knight Cards Revealed by Blizzard for Hearthstone's Core & Path of Arthas Sets

    Can I just say I really like the inclusion of "up to" as a mechanic. To think how many previously broken cards could have been fixed if someone bothered to put a hard cap on their effect. Let's hope this isn't DK exclusive.

  • New Death Knight Minion - Patchwerk

    Well here is a 5 star card. Honestly i'm still surprised this only costs 1 Blood rune, as i would have expected this to be 2 blood runes at the very least. I feel like this being only 1 blood rune might tempt player to run a blood rune > Frost rune depending on your Unholy DK deck, and frost rune decks might choose to pick a Blood rune for this > Unholy rune for corpses. 

    Honestly as far as i can see i'm really looking forward to DKs. The Rune makes picking between your last rune quite difficult and thus makes deckbuilding very interesting. I just hope we get some more good 1 cost blood rune cards, otherwise i feel like 1 frost rune is still better than running 1 blood rune in most non 2x blood rune decks.

    Frostwanker

  • New Neutral Minion - Silvermoon Sentinel

    Pointless I feel, unless it retains the buff when resummoned through other means as long as you are at 8-mana.

  • Blizzard's Battle.Net Twitter Tweets Fake Hearthstone Card Reveals For Death Knight's Core Set

    Yeah, not so much. If there is one thing Flux never did benefit from is their corporate love. You don't need to look far for proof. And arguably it might've been a far more sound business move to play ball from the get go and just fall in line, especially where long-term profits are involved. 

    Mind that Hearthstone team is rather quick to call out people and look down upon their actions if it's not to their liking (or just sulk), even as they are themselves technically still supporting Activision and making them money despite their own personal beliefs expressing distaste for the leadership. Nobody has much of a superior moral hill to stand on there. 

    Also, you can clearly see the difference between the old and the new. Ben Brode & other devs are now at Second Dinner with Marvel Snap, and they literally have a channel on their *official* Discord called #spoiler-leaks with info from 3rd party sites. They let people discuss and even occasionally engage with them through cryptic comments. 

  • New Shaman Spell - Deathweaver Aura

    " Knitting is a harmless hobby. Weaving, though... "

  • New Neutral Minion - Infected Peasant

    Decent sticky minion. Might be useful if there is some deck with spicy buff spells, but other than that it's just Arena fodder.

  • New Death Knight Minion - Repulsive Gargantuan

    Either it's Broken OP or it's trash. So i'll just call it a tech-card against healing and call it a day.

  • New Neutral Minion - Sunfury Clergy

    Decent neutral healing honestly, but there just is no class that needs it at the moment. Mistress of Mixtures is enough for the time being.

  • New Neutral Minion - Street Sweeper

    Arena card. Spammy Arcanist is just better.

  • New Neutral Minion - Lor'themar Theron

    This could be really gross in some circumstances, but is probably too awkward in most.

    My best idea is to play it in Paladin with Order in the Court and then setting up for a two turn lethal with Gangplank Divers and Smite, but that's really awkward.

    Maybe you can make some funny shuffle deck with this in Hunter, but I doubt it.

  • New Death Knight Minion - Rime Sculptor

    Now this is a good card. 5 mana 7/5 worth of stats, the skeletons have the Volatile Skeleton deathrattle, and for 5 mana you get 3 minions on board which end up with you getting 3 corpses once they die. On top of that it's a undead minion so you get undead synergy. This seems like a very good card to slot into a unholy/frost DK combo. The 1 rune required frost cards seems very good for the Unholy and Blood DK decks, which is fun to see.

    Honestly i hope 2x frost rune required cards are good as well, otherwise running a 2+ frost rune deck seems pretty bad when you can just get the good 1 cost frost rune cards + some unholy/blood rune stuff instead.

  • 4 New Death Knight Cards Revealed by Blizzard for Hearthstone's Core & Path of Arthas Sets

    I feel like frost DK is going to be everywhere on ladder on release

  • New Neutral Minion - Invincible

    Unnerfed Bonemare doesn't see play right now. This is better but still very slow. Unless there's some really strong Midrange UNdead deck this just seems a bit outdated.

  • New Neutral Spell - The Sunwell

    Funny meme from spell discovery but nothing more. Better than another Renathal I guess....

  • New Neutral Minion - Scourge Rager
