Mage will be nuts. They can go ham on spell generation and the new stuff they got is great. You‘d have to pick some secrets wich is rarely good but this time it‘s allmost certainly worth it.
Warlock has potential, both with lackeys and insane boardclears. The new cards are all busted in arena.
Rogue as allways has access to strong removal aswell. They got quit a bit of value generation that will go a long way.
Damn, the list continues.. hunter can get carried by hyenas and hunter packs.
Shaman has Earthquake and that‘s an insane card in reborn-land.
Warrior is getting the full arena package aswell. Strong removal, value generation, taunts,...
I don’t know what do think of priest tbh. They got early game support, could be exactly what they need.
Low hopes for paladin and druid. Paladin got strong cards from the LoE and Un‘goro but you rely on finding those because SoU won‘t get you far. Druid‘s new chose one cards are designed for the quest and probably to slow without it.
Those are just thoughts and general impressions from the top of my head, no deep analysis! In the end, all depends on buckets and occurence rates of relevant cards.
I feel like the hype will die down about 4 days into the expansion when it becomes apparent that Mage, Warrior, and Shaman just get to do whatever they want while everyone else just doesn't make the cut.
Then the nerfs come and everyone will rejoice until we figure out the next jack of all trades
Yeah honestly to me the hype died when I realized that even if Mad Genius gets nerfed Bomb Warrior will just replace it as the go to control Warrior deck which effectively makes Highlander decks unplayable and with that the only thing that looks remotely comparable in power level is Quest Shaman (which everyone's gonna get tired of vvery soon after we find out that a deck that starts off strong and never falls off isn't very fun to fight)
I would drop the farseers. They are too much and not so good. Other 3 cost cards seem better. Especially some with better bodies. Maybe even Omega Medics.
The problem is that "Create an account" requirement is set incorrectly, so it does not trigger, thus Getting Started achievement cannot be completed atm. If you've done everything else, once this issue is resolved, you should get the achievement.
Came here for the same problem, nice to see you are already working on it :)
Keep up the great work! The site is shaping wonderfully!
Potion Vendor seem a really good card, very low cost, potential for a lot of healing and easy to keep for late game to recover from a turn of trade.
[Hearthstone Card (Psychopomp) Not Found] may be a nice addition to play, in early game you can use one of the injured minion to trade, cast Psycopomp to get him back (full health in case of blademaster or tol'vir) and give him reborn to heal them later
I'm not really good at deckbuilding but I have some doubt about Grandmummy and just one Neferset Ritualist, 2x of ritualist seems more consistent to advance the quest.
Questing Explorer seems a good inclusion too, even if it may turn into a dead draw in late game
There a heap of OLD content that i'm sure hasnt been updated , since I'm not playing it and probably almost nobody is I'd say it doesnt matter about the continuity errors caused by art replacement.
I just realized that she was just a Succubus with special emote from the boss so I went back to Blackrock to find out how did they kept their constistences there.
You know what I found?
He just plays a Felstalkerinstead.I have to say that this 'consistency update' of theirs is not that lore consistent.
I found it rather sad, because she was part of the tavern even back in Classic WoW
- Still it is not a big gameplay deal.
I thought that they would keep the original card there, no one buys these expansions now so it would not hurt.
I don't know why he has a Felstalker in his deck. It does not even make his deck philosophy sense now.
At least they remowed his emote and they are not trying to tell us that this Felhound is a Nagmara.
On the very release day i am pretty excited, although as a Wild player i am really baffled at what should be my instacraft.
I am used to at least one instacraft every expansion, to secure the card or cards i'm sure i'll deckbuild around.
But this time there are tons of seriously interesting cards for newish plays and archetypes, that may not really survive the Wild meta, hence turning into a kind of waste of dust...
I guess for once i'll pray for RNGesus to make me drop the interesting cards, and start crafting only later on.
Pretty hyped to start playing with these cards tomorrow. First set that i am going into with all 9 classes gold so that won't influence what i want to play anymore. The guaranteed golden legendaries of the pre-orders are a nice bonus, but i can only hope they are ones i will play. I think i will be toying with Priest and Paladin first followed by Rogue and Mage. Going to be a fun week.
I feel forever confined by the 'I should play a class I don't have golden' mentality. But Rogue will definitely be my first attempt, I speculate the current desk lists require minimal modification. Which may seem boring but I'm adamant to prove my theory correct.
Yeah, iv seen a few ppl report this already. This is most likely something that was overlooked and broke with the recent patch. More things broke, so obviously they were super prepared haha :)
I dont think this image was intended at all and once enough ppl report it, they will probably fix it.
Btw fixed the picture for you. You need to use direct link to the picture (ends with .jpg, .png, .bmp etc)
But Plague of Murlocs is odd-costed, and can't therefore be played in the most popular Shaman deck.
Also, like I said, this card might be better than Devolve against Big Priest, but not every match you play will be against Big Priest. In lots of matchups youd be a lot better off with Devolve (like Odd Paladin, Murloc Shaman, Odd Rogue etc etc).

Druid Quest is one of the cards that hypes me a lot, but I don't know if it can be really playable
Uldum Heal Priest

Is there any reason why some tol'vir have jackal or goat heads? Like High Priest Amet or King Phaoris. Maybe they're just wearing masks...

Hey! Which classes do you think will be strong on Arena after rotation?
Midrange Quest Priest (updated)
I'm not really good at deckbuilding but I have some doubt about Grandmummy and just one Neferset Ritualist, 2x of ritualist seems more consistent to advance the quest.
Questing Explorer seems a good inclusion too, even if it may turn into a dead draw in late game

Never played WoW. But the lore is interesting. Loving the flavour of this expansion.

Blizzard nerfed Mecha Jaraxxus?
Downvoted for the clickbait title

Blizzard nerfed Mecha Jaraxxus?
Rule 34 states "if it exists, there is porn of it"
In accordance with commandment 2, I suggest we build....nerf porn.
(Yeah, I don't get either, but I don't make the rules.)
Here's some art, make a card! [Legacy Game]
Is it me or we're just three people playing? 😂
Next: A Millhouse version from Rise of Shadows.
