    Small spell Hunter looking like it might have some potential. This seems like a decent payoff that can help with board control. RIP Rapid Fire though.

    This looks promising, but we'll have to see what kind of support effects like this gets. Pretty neat idea though!

    Gonna need some serious Murloc swarm/spam support for this to be good. Kinda surprised people thought it was gonna be Finja though, the teaser art seemed too low quality for the ninja murloc to be the main minion and not background.

    Some interesting potential, but the value of hero powers can differ greatly even via Discover. This is one that we really have to see in action to determine if it will be any good.

    Baby Survival of the Fittest. I have my doubts about this though, feels a tad slow atm and I'm not sure if there will be enough cards that can make use of the stat boost. Survival had things like rushing beasts, clowns, and Strongman, we'll have to see if Paladin has similar cards on a smaller scale.

    If Libram of Wisdom is a Holy spell, we're all doomed.

    Card seems nuts IMO. Immediate board impact + hand discount AND its divine shield leaves a threat left. I feel like this card will see a ton of play, which is rough since the number of good 4-drops means that there are fewer prospective decks for new Kazakus.

    Token-based Controls decks are probably going away with the rotation of Galakrond, the Wretched and Plague of Flames, but a deathrattle zoo with Nerubian Egg or Boneweb Egg could make nice use out of this against other token decks.

    Downside seems way too severe for what it offers. Warlock isn't especially hurting for removal options these days and I don't think this beats out other options.

    Seems REALLY good from a value perspective. In addition to the ones shown today, we know that Warlock's Drain Soul, Siphon Soul, and Mortal Coil will all be Shadow spells. Getting a 0-mana Siphon Soul that you can also hold onto seems pretty nice.

    Card seems pretty good and pairs nicely with the new Hunter legendary which can tutor it in the mid-late-game.

    Curves insanely well with Sword Eater, I could see this card working in a very wide variety of Warrior decks.

    VERY nifty cheap Secret tech. In Wild I imagine people might have fun using this against Secret Mage. In standard we haven't seen Secret techs be hard run in years, so I'm not optimistic.

    Holy Ripple didn't see much (if any) play and this card has to wait till turn 5+ to be on par with Breath of the Infinite. If the meta demands early removal this will definitely see play, but it seems pretty meh otherwise.

    Ooooh, big healing for Priest this expac it seems! Works very well with both N'zoths, which is always cool to see.

    RIP to rotating Spell Damage Hunter, but there are still some pretty strong cards to tutor with this! Some immediate thoughts are Tracking + Quick Shot or Petting Zoo + any Secret.

    A pretty strong tool for a slower Demon Hunter, helps stem a lot of aggressive board development. Not super looking forward to OTK DH having a good way to answer early boards...

    Effective removal for cheap, seems good!

    I can't help but feel like someone at Blizz fked up and that this is supposed to be a Hunter card, not a Demon Hunter card. It's called a 'Beastmaster' and it has Deathrattle synergy, checking off two Hunter boxes and no Demon Hunter boxes. Idk, I wouldn't be surprised if they announce it was meant to be Hunter at some point down the line.

    Pretty strong late-game bomb for a Control Mage, clears the board and helps push lethal now that Pyroblast will be gone. We'll have to see what other kinds of hero power support Mage gets though.
