    Favorite moment: The announcement of the year's set format.  I think it was a fun way to celebrate 5 years of hearthstone and Rafaam is one of my favorite characters ever, so it's nice to see more of him.

    Looking Forward: Seeing how the Hearthstone team learns from their experiments in buffing and introducing old/new cards into the game.  I hope Rise of Mech and Doom in the Tomb taught the team how long certain events should last and how to address problem cards.

    A Whirlwindfor Warlock, but this one also hits the face.  If token decks start taking over the meta, this card should see play, but even then I have my doubts.  It only clears the smallest of tokens and doesn't even deal with Treants from Soul of the Forest.

    Flashbacks to Flamewreathed Faceless.  2 less attack for +2 spell damage seems like a super good tradeoff considering cheap spells like Zap! and Lightning Bolt are made much more efficient.

    Supercollider on a spell, interesting.  I don't think it will see play when there are much better board control options for warrior, but the ability yo target your own minions could have some interesting niche applications.

    Idk why people are rating this card so low, it's practically Swipe for 1 less mana.  Yeah you damage your own minions, but that might even be a benefit with Security Rover and Frothing Berserker.

    It's a 2 mana 4/2 weapon the turn its played, which seems pretty good to me.  Sure after that it's a bit weak, and you definitely won't run it with the new weapon recycle minion, but it seems right at home in an aggressive Galakrond Warrior deck.

    A smaller, cheaper, and probably worse Walking Fountain, but I wouldn't discount it just yet.  Rush windfury is a very powerful combo and cards like Embiggen orGalakrond, the Unbreakable could make this a very efficient board control tool.

    I can't see a deck making good use of both murlocs and dragons. Again, too bad we didn't get any Curator-esque effects.  Otherwise this could have been more interesting.

    Decent arena car and Deathstalker Rexxar option, but won't see any constructed play.

    Neat anti-freeze tech, but too niche to see play.

    If an aggressive mech deck arises, like in Paladin, this seems like it could be good.  Similar to Sky Claw though, this card probably dies once Boomsday rotates.

    Gimmicky and not consistent enough to make this viable.  Even on a highroll where it gets a lot of attack, it can easily be removed at 3 health.

    Maybe in some handbuff Dragon Paladin, but I'm not seeing it.  Shame we didn't get any Curator-esque effects.

    Cool effect, but none of the hero powers are strong enough to make this worth it.  In KofT era this would have been neat, but not now.

    Decent arena card, definitely not constructed material.

    Decent, but I don't think it's good enough to see play.  Dire Mole's beast tag was one of the main things that pushed it into constructed, and we already have neutral 1/3 in [Hearthstone Card (Crystalizer) Not Found].

    Another cheap pirate for Pirate Warrior, just as the legends of old described.

    Interesting applications with Ancharrr, Necrium Blade, and Livewire Lance.  I like the design.  Definitely better than [Hearthstone Card (Rumaging Kobold) Not Found].

    Good for Token Druid, archetype seems like it will come back pretty well.

    I like Treants, but idk if this will be enoguh to push the archetype past a support for Token Druid.
