Necrolord Draka is a New Legendary Rogue Card Revealed by 4Gamer for Castle Nathria

To be honest, this type of effect never needed to use the combo keyword to begin with, since the description of the effect already specifies everything that distinguishes combo from battlecry: that another card(s) has been played first.

I'm …

Blizzard Reveals 9 More Murder at Castle Nathria Cards in a Hearthside Chat, Including Warlock Legendary

Oh yeah. That's what happens you quickly internalise an effect upon first reading it and don't bother checking the text again for edge cases. I guess it makes sense flavour-wise; only the most sneaky could hide even the red herring.

Blizzard Reveals 9 More Murder at Castle Nathria Cards in a Hearthside Chat, Including Warlock Legendary

I expect the only things that will keep stealth when the Red Herring dies are minions that would have had stealth regardless of the Herring. So, normal stealth minions that haven't attacked yet or something that has been given stealth …

A New Castle Nathria Neutral Infuse Card Revealed On Huya - Insatiable Devourer

Given Blade of C'Thun is only a relevant point of comparison in rogue C'Thun decks, where the revealed card isn't going to fill its niche any better than the many stronger hard removal cards rogue already has, I'm not sure …

Blizzard Reveals A New Castle Nathria Location Card for Demon Hunter - Relic Vault

Very unlikely. The 'Relic' in its name specifies what the vault contains, not what the vault is. It's essentially an adjective, while the text requires 'Relic' to be a noun.

Blizzard Reveals A New Castle Nathria Location Card for Demon Hunter - Relic Vault

Can we add this to the long list of mage bias after that class got its whole(?) Volatile Skeleton package revealed together so we could evaluate it, while DH gets this in isolation?

Remornia, Living Blade, is a New Warrior Legendary Minion and Weapon! Castle Nathria Card Reveal by IGN

I think the underlying question is which enchantments make sense on both minions and weapons, and whether they get carried around between forms even when they don't do anything. Its pretty safe to assume stat buffs will get passed around, …

Remornia, Living Blade, is a New Warrior Legendary Minion and Weapon! Castle Nathria Card Reveal by IGN

I think [card]Crabatoa[/card] is a better comparison since, like Remornia, that gives you 2 minion attacks plus 1 weapon swing - all at 4 attack - and leaves you with a weapon equipped too. It feels like Remornia will do …

Am I the only one

I think the responses so far are a bit unhelpful because they assume people want to always use the same old teams to solve every problem. And yeah, those teams can handle more or less everything, but stopping there makes …

Today's Castle Nathria Card Reveal is Sinstone Graveyard, a New Rogue Location Card (Updated)

Sinstones are essentially gravestones the souls sent to Revendreth carry on their backs (see pictures of Kael'thas from Shadowlands) that record where they went wrong in life rather than commemorating them. I'm sure Denathrius was aiming for irony when he …

Today's Castle Nathria Card Reveal is Sinstone Graveyard, a New Rogue Location Card (Updated)

I'm sure it's good, but I'm not seeing the excitement to be honest, and that's coming from someone with a serious rogue bias. Comparisons with Edwin make little sense since it basically makes [card]Biteweed[/card]s which are half the size and …

Blizzard Reveals Two New Location Cards for Paladin & Hunter - Great Hall & Castle Kennels

Define 'good removal'. One of Paladin's central design features is that they debuff minions instead of destroying them directly. They have a couple of damage-dealing spells, but even that is covered by weapons the vast majority of the time.

3 New Paladin Cards Revealed for Castle Nathria by Hearthstone Esports - Tune In for Details!

You could just not put the Shark in your deck, and hey presto! It's the "old type of Mech Mage".

Anyway, I doubt we'll see many mechs in Castle Nathria, if any. They have a negligible presence in the …

3 New Paladin Cards Revealed for Castle Nathria by Hearthstone Esports - Tune In for Details!

You're talking about him like he should be winning the game more or less by himself, which is excessive for any 3 mana card, regardless of its rarity. The better question is whether dude pally will want a bunch of …

3 New Paladin Cards Revealed for Castle Nathria by Hearthstone Esports - Tune In for Details!

Aren't you asking quite a lot from a 3-drop? Stewart is quite slow, but it can easily get you 9/9 or more stats over the course of the game, and does so while having near-premium stats on an early-game minion.

Did a Hearthstone Developer Tease a Card of Denathrius’ Flying Sword?

Infuse may be involved, but it would have to do something a lot fancier than that to be touted as "Probably the coolest weapon/minion we’ve ever seen in Hearthstone."

I'd expect it to be more dynamic in how it …

At this point any mention of deathrattle rogue is basically a meme, so let's hope that [card]hedge maze[/card] had better not be yet another bait for one. But on its own merits its kinda dangerous, …

Hearthstone Designer Cora Georgiou Shares Insights on the Murder at Castle Nathria Expansion - Locations, Infuse, Flavor & More

From the set's art we know there are a couple more familiar faces (Kel'thuzad and Rafaam), but of the rest I think it is only Thrall's mother Draka that we knew anything about outside the Shadowlands.

A Quick Look at Prince Renathal - Lore, Balance, and What He Means to Hearthstone

I find Renathal quite, err, interesting on the interesting-scale because he is simultaneously super interesting and not interesting at all. Because everything he does occurs before you start playing, and while you're playing it feels a lot like any other …

What do you predict will be the most problematic card out of the “Prime Suspects”? 

Rogue suspect is spicy

That's what I like to hear, especially after she counted the rogue suspect as …
