  Isn't the minion also "destroyed". Like when a spell gets countered it just vanishes form existance. the same should happen to minions.

  And in the case of Priest, should not go to their rez pool. Right

  It did not die, so it cannot be found by effects that target minions that "died this game."

Probably prevent it from being played and removes it from opponent hand, while not negating it's mana cost. Like counter spell for minions

  Tested it, and what happens is once the minion is played, no effect is played and it is removed. Coutering a minion is effectively silence and remove.

  And what about if you secretly choose to counter a secret and your enemy plays a minion? The effect of your minion is discovered and vanishes??

  If you choose to counter a spell and they play a minion, it doesn’t show them what you chose but they’ll know.

  The counter spell effect should still be there until they play a spell or kill Okani, as he reads “while this is alive.”  That stipulation actually makes this card a little weak, in my honest opinion.  He’s a coin flip essentially.  Will the opponent try to guess and guess wrong?  If they guess right he likely gets removed before countering anything.  And depending on the meta your opponent may have multiple low cost minions and spells to throw away in attempts to test if you chose minion or spell.

  I don't understand what you're asking - could you please try to explain it again?

  Sometimes my english is bad, also I didn't see the card work so maybe is just a silly question :P

  What I understood, you can secretly choose to counter a spell or a minion. Scenario: Let's say you pick "counter minion" option so, What happens when your rival cast a spell that is not being counter?? The card still had the option to counter a minion "as a (known) secret" or once the rival avoids this effect is like he counter it and can freely play a minion??

  No, it waits until a minion is played and counters it.

Quote From Author

We get to wait until April 5 for the core set announcement which will also come alongside the final card reveal day.

Isn't this basically just a walk back of previous comments saying that the core set changes would be talked about on reveal day? I get it if they delayed that seeing how clearly something went wrong with the scheduling, but April 5? Am I supposed to assume they haven't finalized the core set changes yet and therefore can't show it yet, because certainly that would be ridiculous?

  Turn out that the reveal schedule is nearly a month long, in deference to what they have been doing for the last few expansions. So there's no reason to shit out the core set when everyone's hyped about the expansion.

  Or if we're being cynical, theyve made some card choices which they know very well the community will start grabbing pitchforks, or alternatively so mundane that everyone gets put off by it.

  They might just not want the Core set changes to overshadow/confuse the already tight reveal schedule. The Core set is a big deal, but isn't what Blizz wants people to get excited about since it doesn't sell any packs.

  fair enough although it's not like the Core set changes are gonna be all that spectacular. Around 30% are changed, the rest stays the same. Unless they are kicking off the card reveals immediately it would have been a nice bit of content to think about until we actually get new cards
