Keep in mind that if you have 3 of these, each one will trigger and deal 5 damage. so if you have four of them, you will deal 20 damage to random enemies.
but for 5 mana, getting 3 or more of them out requires too much setup and after you do all that work to get them all out you might as well have played a just as convoluted combo that can actually kill your opponent.

a tempo mage variant. Tried some versions of it by now. When all goes well, you can win at turn 5. Even warriors can be beaten by this. You can have bad games ofc against other aggro decks when they win the battle for early bord control.
I feel like ever since kingsbane nerf in leeching poison rogue has been nothing but an aggro class . Im sorry if im not an adept of blindingly play green cards
IDC that this isn't very good. Would folks honestly rather this be a vanilla-stat minion with a weak ability that will never see play, like most other cards? At least it's interesting.
If you have high health as control warlock, but lack high tempo turn, Riftcleaver Will turn the tides for sure
mainly control warlock decks lacks tempo when they got high health, this one can help in those situations with a cost of hp.
You rather lose hp to yourself than to a huge minion. Though you might want to kill a minion of maximum of 8-12 hp cause more than that might kill you, so be sure to reduce some hp of targeted minion before you even play this card IF you can, having lifesteal minions on board can help too if you have any to restore some health that Riftcleaver caused.
People are going to have to focus the Lackey on Turn 2 like *crazy* or face a huge threat on Turn 3. And then there's the Coin... This is basically a 3/3 Devilsaur Egg with a one-time triggerable Deathrattle. Damn.
I'm just gonna say: keep your extra copies and goldens
Seriously though, best case scenario this is a turn 4 Mountain Giant (that you can coin out), not to mention that the sacrifice portion is almost irrelevant since you're always destroying a 1/1 whose main selling point is the battlecry. Combine it with the fact that Warlock has the second most efficient lackey generator (and might even get another one) and this is an amazing card.
Another good way to get fresh is to use another deck. I can get really inspired when trying some fresh ideas, been having great fun with a tempo mage deck based on a lot of spell damage stuff and Arcane Watcher and Unexpected Results, its nice to out-aggro those mech-hunters/mech pala's/token druids/murloc shammy's, in the time they prepare for your mountain giant on 4 they suddenly face lethal on 5. Only problem is that without Aluneth when you run out of steam it's game over, but hey, at least you can concede quickly as well. Except when Stargazer Luna suddenly turns the tables again :). Its amazing how often that card turned around the bord for me.

Sounds like value, sounds nice
Riftcleaver
Obliterate (which is a death knight card mind you) on a stick. Seems good.

Look at this.. Then back at Desert Obelisk. Now back at this.. Then back at Desert Obelisk. Start madly laughing.

And we can probably expect another Hunter Weapon, too. The possible weapons you can get from this are not that much now.

Great value card that Zul'jin loves :)
Uldum Hunter Card Reveal - Hunter's Pack
Nice value generation. Looks really promising. If more cards like that show up, i think Highlander Hunter could actually be somewhat viable.

New Hunter Spell - Hunter's Pack
Hey, that's pretty good.
Edit: Especially the weapon part. Only Eaglehorn, Hatchet and Gladiators Longbow, right?
You get a Secret for Eaglehorn, a Beast for Hatchet and Gladiator is underrated, imo atleast.
Also, Zul'Jin value, jeez.

I think this is still pretty good even on later games, sure turn 4(3 with coin) would be the most optimal.
4 mana 8/8 is a lot for it's cost, even if you reduced the demon to 4/4 it would still be good.
Great tempo for it's cost, I'm pretty sure you can go mid-range style too with this card too along with lackeys.

So bad and it's epic.. Are they sadic???
Uldum Warlock Card Reveal - EVIL Recruiter
Super strong. Maybe the first nerf on the set
Welcome to the Rogue Forum!
Ha well. What I do not like when playing against the rogue: this double battle cry mechanic can be really frustrating to play against, since
* you have to wait a long time before its your turn again
* then you face a bord full of minions
* and a beefed up Edwin
* and no way to remove that irritating minion because it is stealth
* oh and they can remove everything you put on the bord as well using the double battle cry and lackeys/discover
* or heal them selves up again forever with that battle cry insect.
So basically: they have all the fun and you lose.

We're talking Devilsaur Egg in an aggro deck.
