I think of this as Millhouse without a drawback (-1 in hand probably won't matter in the super aggro archetype). This can't be dealt with on curve so it's great tempo. I would absolutely play this.
Now with all the Relics revealed this could actually be nuts. Drawing two cards that get reduced by like 2 or 3-mana. And then doing it once more with an even ebtter discount is kinda crazy.
But it's still gonna be a slow plan so it might just fall apart in the first 5 turns.
This is just an insane card. Ignore the discard, this is a 4-mana 7/7 that draws 3 cards and can easily be tutored via Tuskpiercer. Play Vomit DH, fill your deck with aggressive low cost stuff that isn't essential and just drop this guy on 4 every time. He'll completely dumpster slow decks who will have to tech SPECIFICALLY to deal with him on curve (which will still refill your hand and keep you going).
Don't care about the Quilboar meme though, that's too inconsistent. Just play your hand in the first 3 turns and it's virtually the same.
Someone will figure out a broken combo with this new Kaelthas during the theory crafting steam, then it'll rage rampant on day 1 launch, with maybe a speedy nerf a week later.
I like Bibliomite a lot. I would love to see more of this in DH. Getting power in exchange for undrawing a card. Will help stop me from having my 7+ mana card on my left and not being able to outcast! Just a really nice idea. Glide did this really well also.
Kryxis the Voracious is just really cool. Great target to get put back by Bibliomite to set up Death Speaker Blackthorn or cheat out with the other Quilboar. Also enjoy another class getting discard cards. If/when they do dual class again, this will be another aspect they can highlight with a DH and Warlock dual card.
Burden of Pride while I don't think it's that good of a card I love the mechanic. Risk your life for a better reward is fun. Warriors are mostly just piling armor on top of their 30 base life. The choice of, maybe I'll just take a few hits to enhance a card, is cool. Like I said I don't think this is THE card to do it but a good reminded of an interesting resource.
In recent times, Druid appreciates big minions so Sesselie of the Fae Court will fit right in. This is also the type of deathrattle you want to trigger using Hedge Maze so I'm fairly certain we'll see a new type of Ramp Deathrattle Druid popping up next expansion.
One of the strongest card I've ever seen. If Druid plays this on curve (aka turn 5) then good luck ever getting on the board. They're now free to do whacky OTK nonsense without punishment.
Wouldn't be surprised if this goes up to (8) and then (9) within a month.
Indeed: It's more akin to Nature Studies than Primordial Glyph. This adds one more to the discount versus Nature Studies, but you must use it that turn whereas with the other spell the discount carries over between turns.
At first glance, this seems like Callous Bonecrusher, only way worse. Reputation decks don't want this card; Reputation is very prone to disruption, if your Gloryseeker dies to Vile Feast and LeBlanc dies to Mystic Shot your Reputation can be heavily delayed, that's why you want cards like Callous Bonecrusher and Whispered Words which are decent even without the Reputation trigger. In a Reputation deck, this guy is terrible without the Reputation trigger and he's not even that great with the Reputation trigger.
However, that doesn't mean he's useless. He has two advantages over Callous Bonecrusher: 1. He's from Noxus so you can run him in Noxus + Freljord, and 2. He's a Yeti. If reading that makes you think of the LeBlanc Yetis archetype, then you win an internet point. I'm not very familiar with that archetype, but I think he could be good there. 3/5
It's core is debbri and the two goblins. Goal is to flood your opponents board as quick as possible while you use the power of the rocks with nova/kazar and Mr fantastic. I also added quake to the mix which messes with your opponent planned locations.
What do you think any suggestions/remarks? And if you decide to play it: did you have as much fun as me?
Frostbites are at their strongest when used in combat (or in response to Single Combat), turning a 1-for-1 trade into a blowout in your favor. This effect is more akin to Rimetusk Shaman's effect, which frostbites an enemy unit at the next Round Start. It's not a bad effect, but it's both weaker and less versatile than Flash Freeze.
This card works best alongside followers like Trifarian Gloryseeker and Rimefang Wolf; it's hard for me to imagine any midrange Frostbite deck without Noxus, so those are your only real Challenger options (Zombie Ashe is more of a combo deck). The biggest problem I see with this card, is that Rimefang Wolf only makes sense in the heavy frostbite variant of Ashe Noxus, with Rimetusk Shaman and Rimefang Denmother; but that deck doesn't have the draw engine of Classic Ashe Noxus with Hearthguard and Trifarian Assessor, and this is not a card you want to draw when you're running on fumes. 2/5
New Demon Hunter Minion - Bibliomite
I think of this as Millhouse without a drawback (-1 in hand probably won't matter in the super aggro archetype). This can't be dealt with on curve so it's great tempo. I would absolutely play this.
New Demon Hunter Location - Relic Vault
Now with all the Relics revealed this could actually be nuts. Drawing two cards that get reduced by like 2 or 3-mana. And then doing it once more with an even ebtter discount is kinda crazy.
But it's still gonna be a slow plan so it might just fall apart in the first 5 turns.
New Neutral Minion - Bog Beast
Sludge Belcher big brother! Let's see if this can replicate the former one's success...
New Demon Hunter Minion - Kryxis the Voracious
This is just an insane card. Ignore the discard, this is a 4-mana 7/7 that draws 3 cards and can easily be tutored via Tuskpiercer.

New Druid Minion - Sesselie of the Fae Court
I was going to write this off as janky garbage but then I remembered Druid has a Deathrattle thing going on.
That's a big difference.
Now we only need to worry about finding some degenerate combo to abuse with this.
New Neutral Minion - Kael'thas Sinstrider
Someone will figure out a broken combo with this new Kaelthas during the theory crafting steam, then it'll rage rampant on day 1 launch, with maybe a speedy nerf a week later.
Calling it now. History will repeat itself...

Vanndar is redundant in Druid because of Guff. Either is fine, but both are too much and Guff is much stronger than Vanndar.

New Druid Spell - Planted Evidence
Looks good. BAsically a discover with a -1 discount as long as you cast instantly, but even without that it's still just a good flex card to have.
Not as good as NAture studies though.
New Druid Spell - Plot of Sin
Very bizarre Arcane tag, but it's a good spell. Should be a useful migame bomb for token Druids
New Druid Minion - Topior the Shrubbagazzor
One of the strongest card I've ever seen. If Druid plays this on curve (aka turn 5) then good luck ever getting on the board. They're now free to do whacky OTK nonsense without punishment.
Wouldn't be surprised if this goes up to (8) and then (9) within a month.

Love Topior. Great effect, cool nature payoff, also a Dragon! Plus that art! Looks so fun.
New Druid Minion - Topior the Shrubbagazzor
I'm right there with ya :)
Don't forget that they're Whelps, as well, so this goes hand-in-hand with a certain other Legendary Dragon...

Total trash in Daybreak decks, but maybe Soraka wants this? Probably not. 1/5

New Druid Minion - Topior the Shrubbagazzor
Instantly most favorite card of the set. I'm totally NOT biased 😏
The name is hilarious, the art is magnificent and the effect is just... magic! What is there not to love about this legendary dragon?
The Whelpagazzor tokens are just adorable too!

Since mages do not have acces to this spell. It is not a Powercreep to me.

Great Wronchi video as usual. As for Topior the Shrubbagazzor... I love it... I need it...GOLDEN!
Deck discussion: lock your opponent out aka rubbish
Hi all Snappers,
I have been playing my so called rubbish deck:
It's core is debbri and the two goblins. Goal is to flood your opponents board as quick as possible while you use the power of the rocks with nova/kazar and Mr fantastic. I also added quake to the mix which messes with your opponent planned locations.
What do you think any suggestions/remarks? And if you decide to play it: did you have as much fun as me?
