    Gonna need to see how the meta shapes up, if it becomes too relevant then Acidic Swamp Ooze gets more popular and makes this a bit worse.

    Certainly much better than Fortune Teller, but there will need to see some serious spell generation for this to work.

    This is so annoying to deal with in the early-mid game, I can see this in some early-game focused deck.

    Seems alright, now we just have to see if alright is enough to cut it.

    Replacement for [Hearthstone Card (Whirlckick Master) Not Found], seems decent-strong.

    Might have some applications, but seems a bit too slow to actually run

    Decent weapon buff card since it has pretty good stats. Follows Rogue curve decently well too.

    This is the exact kind of support Smythe needed to be good. The quality of Paladin Secrets is one thing, but getting them into play us something that they struggle with the most. Cards like this that thin your deck while also support its inherent synergy can be very powerful, although its still early so say whether or not this will be strong enough. Nasty Turn 1 Coin + Sword of the Fallen into turn 2 Sunreaver Spy though.

    As someone who hates combo decks with a fiery passion, I welcome this card. However, it still surprises me that Blizzard continues supporting archetypes and designs that people continue to pan. At least this makes [Hearthstone Card (Neeru Firelade) Not Found] and Blood Shard Bristleback a bit more interesting.

    I think there will need to be more support for handbuff before this is seriously considered, the incentive just isn't there for how long you need to wait for this to become good. Many of the other ranked spells are ok or even decent at their lowest point, but this is far too slow.

    Xaril 2, Poison Boogaloo. This seems pretty strong and will probably see play, but I still don't think the new Rogue weapon gets run over Self-Sharpening Sword.

    Eh, you'd have to play this against a pretty large or specific threat to get a significant reduction. Maybe nice when randomly generated, but I don't think this gets hard run.

    An interesting card if nothing else. The issue I see with this archetype is needing to get Neeru before you start turbo milling, but maybe Free Admission to tutor it becomes the answer.

    VERY strong effect, now it just remains to be seen if it will be a strong effect in DH. Currently there are some strong cards like Fishy Flyer or Taelan Fordring that you can pull, but I think there still needs some more 'oomph'

    First off, 5/5 S+ Tier name.

    Second, that effect is bonkers strong and will cheat some nasty turns.

    Some bonkers potential, but the competition for Rogue weapons is fierce while Self-Sharpening Sword is in rotation. I think for a new weapon to be played, it will have to bring something niche to the table, like Necrium Blade.

    Pretty fking powerful Frenzy synergy, now there just needs to be a Frenzy card strong enough to warrant this as a build-around. The Frenzy cards thus far have been somewhat underwhelming, but there are still plenty of reveals left!

    It shouldn't be too difficult for Paladin to get some minions to stick via Divine Shield or general swarm ability, meaning this could easily represent a significant amount of damage in the mid-late game. In the early-mid game it can be paired pretty well with Animated Broomstick to provide intense board control.

    Should be good in a Tempo Warrior deck focused on medium Rush minions. This thing will enable Warrior to trade VERY favorable into token decks.

    Shouldn't be too hard to get this into a reasonable AoE spot with Priest's ability to heal either face and minions. I just want them to stop making strong 4-mana cards so I can play Kazakus ;-;
