Al'ar is a new Legendary Neutral Card Revealed for Hearthstone's Ashes of Outland Expansion

In fairness, it's 2x 3 damage, and my reasoning is that your opponent is quite likely to have already used some of their removal dealing with what came before it. There is only so much removal any deck can have …

Al'ar is a new Legendary Neutral Card Revealed for Hearthstone's Ashes of Outland Expansion

I'm too used to playing [card]Sherazin, Corpse Flower[/card] and immediately assumed the ashes were dormant for some reason. Obviously that version would be way OP.

Since the ashes are easily killed it is a very different story, but perhaps …

Underlight Angling Rod is a new Paladin Weapon Revealed for Hearthstone's Ashes of Outland Expansion

On the face of it, it's a murloc version of [card]Ancharr[/card], with plenty of practical differences due to class, rarity, random vs draw, and how interested their respective tribes are in weapons.

Regardless of all that though, it's a …

Dragonmaw Overseer is a new Priest Card Revealed for Hearthstone's Ashes of Outland Expansion

An angry-looking orc... in priest. OK then.

Artwork aside, if priest can stick minions in the first couple of turns this can be very strong, and will certainly feel crazy when your opponent cannot get rid of it. The …

New Druid Minion - Imprisoned Satyr
Quote From Meteorite12

So this minion’s effect goes off after the draw step right? Might make it a bit less reliable if you’re trying to have it hit a specific minion

We saw it go …

Hearthstone Confirms Whizbang the Wonderful Will Rotate in April, Leaving Standard

I don't know about a buff, but they said near the time it was released that it will be changed to only use Standard cards. I.e. all the Year of the Raven cards will be replaced. The scale of the …

Blackjack Stunner is a new Rogue Card with Secret Synergy Revealed for Hearthstone's Ashes of Outland Expansion

I assume he/she meant something more like mage having multiple ways to play secrets for 0 mana, rather than concerns about the base cost being 0.

Imprisoned Antaen & Soul Split are new Demon Hunter Cards for Hearthstone's Ashes of Outland Expansion

So the opponent's choices are: build a board to get destroyed and soak up the damage, or get nuked in the face for 10. Reminds me of the lose-lose choices against [card]Explosive Runes[/card].

New Rogue Spell - Ambush
Quote From Lambda

If the ambushers have stealth and rogue gets at least one decent AOE, rogue might be able to establish a real control deck. 

It doesn't have stealth. You can see the token, …

Blackjack Stunner is a new Rogue Card with Secret Synergy Revealed for Hearthstone's Ashes of Outland Expansion

Now every rogue secret can be a targeted [card]Freezing Trap[/card] too. I was wondering whether there would be a serious push for rogues to play secrets this time around, and it looks like there is.

Illidan Stormrage is Being Replaced in Hearthstone's Classic Set with Xavius

They'll have to change quite a lot. The name and artwork obviously, but also the tokens (why would Xavius summon [card]Flame of Azzinoth[/card]?), voice lines and Illidan's fantastic entrance animation. Unlike a lot of people I actually quite like the …

Hearthstone Wild Card Unnerfs Revealed - Yogg-Saron, Raza and More!

I would avoid playing in Wild for a little while then. I have seen tons of Razakus priests already. No doubt the numbers are inflated because the unnerf just happened, so it may settle down. That said, it now has …

New Demon Hunter Minion - Shadowhoof Slayer

The comparison with [card]Elven Archer[/card] seems is appropriate, and because of that it doesn't look 'crazy'. Gain +1 attack at the cost of taking face damage if you hit a minion. Plus it's a demon I guess, we'll have to …

New Expanion Leak and much more
Quote From anchorm4n

Can someone give some background information about the lore? Why does a Demon Hunter class run demons for instance? Are they enslaved prey or something? Or do I get the class identity upside down and …

Ashes of Outland is Hearthstone's Next Expansion - New Demon Hunter Class, Priest Getting Overhaul, See the Demon Hunter Cards

There is absolutely no way the Divine Spirit - Inner Fire combo survives in standard. Since there is no new common card I guess Inner Fire is sticking around, but I'm sure Power Infusion is the replacement for Divine Spirit.

Ashes of Outland is Hearthstone's Next Expansion - New Demon Hunter Class, Priest Getting Overhaul, See the Demon Hunter Cards

Not quite, because thew changed Nova to not hit the opposing hero. Besides, the [card]Fireball[/card] / [card]Mortal Strike[/card] has always shown us not all classes are created equal, and in this case I am happy for Priest AoE to be …

Ashes of Outland is Hearthstone's Next Expansion - New Demon Hunter Class, Priest Getting Overhaul, See the Demon Hunter Cards

Shadow Madness is buffed, but Smite and Shield... not exactly. Smite only hits minions now, making it a great removal card, but it was historically only really sent at the opponent's face. Shield meanwhile no longer draws a card, which …

Ashes of Outland is Hearthstone's Next Expansion - New Demon Hunter Class, Priest Getting Overhaul, See the Demon Hunter Cards

So far as I can tell the illidari are in a weird spot between demon and non-demon, and I was always unsure whether [card]Illidan Stormrage[/card] was rightly classified as a demon. Maybe its the wings? Similar to how dragons aren't …

Ashes of Outland is Hearthstone's Next Expansion - New Demon Hunter Class, Priest Getting Overhaul, See the Demon Hunter Cards

True, I could picture something like [card]Target Dummy[/card] as a rogue card, maybe with a deathrattle as a trap of some sort. But if people want a proper taunt minion with real defensive presence then I think they're just playing …

Ashes of Outland is Hearthstone's Next Expansion - New Demon Hunter Class, Priest Getting Overhaul, See the Demon Hunter Cards

Outcast would fit as the DH mechanic. Illidan is practically the embodiment of an outcast.
