New Neutral Minion - Hoard Pillager
Quote From troY

Seemed strong during the stream. Aggro Warrior /Rogue might use this card.

It looks a bit awkward in rogue, since you don't want the hero power dagger. Hunter and Pally might find …

New Warrior Minion - Skybarge

By itself it is not much harder to kill this on turn 3 than it was to kill Ship's Cannon on turn 2. But assuming you have a fast turn 1 and 2 (not unlikely assuming it is an aggressive …

New Warrior Weapon - Ritual Chopper

4 damage is pretty much always overkill on turn 2, and 1 damage is underwhelming on turn 3, so it is certainly no Fiery War Axe of old.

Still, it adds to the smorc-fest I expect the warrior Galakrond …

New Mage Spell - Rolling Fireball
Quote From Elfensilver

After it starts rolling in a direction, will it keep that, or may it change the direction halfway through?

I think it keeps going in the same direction.

It's a bit …

New Shaman Spell - Invocation of Frost

So its basically a Glacial Shard but with rush. 

Yeah. This and Corrupt Elementalist really make me question Blizz saying the invoke …

New Neutral Minion - Gyrocopter

The card is solid, but unlikely to be ladder material. It should be noted though: windfury makes magnetic especially scary.

I smiled at the flavour text though: "The hula doll is still absolutely required." which is a call-back all …

New Warlock Spell - Rain of Fire

Lots of synergies (both new and well established) are possible here, and it will be nice to see what another class can do with a [card]Whirlwind[/card].

But can we take a moment to look at the art: I'm not …

New Shaman Minion - Surging Tempest

* Insert [card]Tunnel Trogg[/card] comparison here *

It's a 1 mana 1/3 which quite easily becomes a 2/3, but doesn't snowball and the buff is only super meaningful if you overload on an early turn when the overload cost …

New Paladin Minion - Lightforged Crusader

Because I almost always add class cards to decks before any neutrals, I often find myself with an almost all class-card draft anyway. Pally has some meaningful holes in what it can do with its class cards though, so it …

New Shaman Spell - Storm's Wrath

Eugh. I haven't forgotten the strength of [card]Mark of the Lotus[/card]. At least there is no Patches to break the early game with it anymore.

Yeah. This and [card]Corrupt Elementalist[/card] really make me question Blizz saying the invoke cards are low tempo to justify the powerhouse invoke synergy …

New Shaman Minion - Squallhunter
Quote From vprr

As always I will stress that +2 spell damage is an incredibly powerful and often overlooked ability, the statline on this card is also insane for this effect.

This is a powerful card, although …

New Priest Minion - Murozond the Infinite

I had my doubts about when you would actually have a good opportunity to play this, but it looked pretty good in the stream. Granted the reveal streams are rarely good indicators of anything, but I'm a little more optimistic …

New Rogue Minion - Bloodsail Flybooter

Ooh. I might have to make space for this in my wild pirate rogue, which is already a cannon/swarm deck. The only potential downside is that [card]Captain Hooktusk[/card] is still the strongest card in the deck.

Whatever, me and …

Wild players: how do you still enjoy it?
Quote From iWatchUSleep
Quote From AngryShuckie

The most important part to enjoying Wild is to never reach rank 5. Preferably mess around at rank 15 if possible, where literally anything goes and your long-built collection can …

Wild players: how do you still enjoy it?

The most important part to enjoying Wild is to never reach rank 5. Preferably mess around at rank 15 if possible, where literally anything goes and your long-built collection can be used to its fullest.

As a good player …

New Neutral Minion - Platebreaker (Armor Destruction)

Is it heavy-handed? Perhaps, but you have to keep in mind it doesn't prevent your opponent from armoring up again on later turns, and playing a 5 mana 5/5 rarely accompanies a finishing blow.

More importantly: most tech cards …

New Druid Spell - Embiggen
Quote From Me0203

Part of me is drooling, imagining this as a Rogue card. But the sane part of me is curious whether it will be played in Druid. I think we'll certainly see a lot of experimentation …

New Priest Reveals - Mindflayer Kaahrj & Chronobreaker

Cool! I don't care too much about the card at a mechanical level, but knowing I had a hand in releasing him/her/it while helping Hagatha in the Dalaran Heist makes me care a bit more.

New Hunter Weapon - Stormhammer
Quote From Ardin

Stormhammers are typical weapons for Dwarven Gryphon Riders. And since Hunter got some Gryphons and Dwarves this expansion it kind of makes sense.

Also Gryphon Riders make most sense as hunters.

The dragon …
