Well, it's true that ultimately, the meta is human-driven.

Orion, Mansion Manager is a New Castle Nathria Mage Legendary Card Revealed on Douyu

This expansion has a lot of sane and balanced cards. I like it.

We have been forcefed broken and oppressive card for so long that we forgot what normal feels like.

 

It's just my personal opinion …

Kidnap is a New Rogue Secret Coming to Hearthstone in the Castle Nathria Expansion - Revealed by Blizzard

The dev team has explained once that fitting text on card was an incredibly strenuous process; mainly due to the variety of language they try to support. (in some article about updating deathstalker rexxar's hero power with last published beast …

Kidnap is a New Rogue Secret Coming to Hearthstone in the Castle Nathria Expansion - Revealed by Blizzard

It does not trigger before the opponent's battlecry, does it ? :-(

 

EDIT : Shame. I'd love to have at least one silencing secret in hearthstone.

Thanks for your answers.

Halkias is a New Rogue Legendary Card Revealed by Flurry for Murder at Castle Nathria

It's worth noting that [card]Sketchy Stranger[/card] can net two more secret in Standard.

 

One could probably strech it a bit by playing Tess and/or [card]Contraband Stash[/card] for a couple more non-rogue secret iteration.

Trying to bounce/copy …

Halkias is a New Rogue Legendary Card Revealed by Flurry for Murder at Castle Nathria

I'm placing a small bet on both [card]Horde Operative[/card] and [card]Kezan Mystic[/card] causing the copied/stolen secret to summon it for the wrong player.

New Neutral Minion - Theotar, the Mad Duke
Quote From dapperdog
It might end up being a card every player must have/craft because the only counter to this is by playing your own theotar.

I'm under the impression the devs expects Renathal to be the …

Theotar, the Mad Duke is a New Legendary Card Revealed by Thijs for Castle Nathria

Great RAGE! generation engine.

New Neutral Minion - Ashen Elemental

Let's take a moment to appreciate the fact it's a "opponent next turn"-only effect and not a "until the start of your next turn".

So these pesky mill deck won't be able to abuse it.

Convoke the Spirits is a New Druid Card Revealed by Rarran for Murder at Castle Nathria - Updated

I don't know much about the current state of Druid in standard.

But in wild/unranked, played Druid decklist are 90% cancerous combo, and 9% ultra aggro smorc.

 

So, my guess is that this expansion is the …

New Priest Minion - The Harvester of Envy

https://twitter.com/Songbird_HS/status/1547312664279261184

It will work on card when they have already been played.

It will result in minion being taken control of; and weapon, secret, sigil, locations, etc... to be destroyed (as only one can be in play at …

The Harvester of Envy is a New Legendary Priest Card Revealed by RPP for Castle Nathria

https://twitter.com/Songbird_HS/status/1547312664279261184

Apparently, you get to take control of minion already on board. So [card]Copycat[/card] will works in some cases.

EDIT : It also works on weapon, secret, locations, etc... In which case, your opponent's one will get destroyed …

New Paladin Minion - Buffet Biggun
Quote From dapperdog

If by some miracle you can infuse it by turn 4 this card is amazing.

The problem is most paladin aggro decks can't really draw or generate enough stuff on board. So the idea …

New Neutral Minion - Prince Renathal
Quote From dapperdog

Its the new baku/genn. The downsides are fairly trivial because some classes simply draws way too well. You can legit just play more draw options and cheaper minions to fill your curve while playing control. …

A Wild Review of Voyage to the Sunken City's Warlock Cards Coming to Hearthstone

Yep. There's a shift in the way they design cards. I've a hard time putting it into word (*), but I'm under the impression they want :

A Wild Review of Voyage to the Sunken City's Warlock Cards Coming to Hearthstone

I'm afraid [card]Curse of Agony[/card] will carry you way further than Hakkar :

- Easier to draw (2 card vs 1 legendary)

- Easier to play (1 mana vs 9)

- Agony token card will be drawn …

A Wild Review of Voyage to the Sunken City's New Paladin Cards Coming to Hearthstone

Those arguments about the holy cards give me a bad "circular logic" vibe :

There's currently no good holy decklist -> Therefore its not worth giving those new holy spell a thought -> Therefore none will be given -> …

New Neutral Minion - Pufferfist

At least, it got the good taste to be a common neutral. So every class will gets an opportunity to abuse it. (But yeah... we all know who will really Abuse it ad nauseam...)

New Warlock Minion - Sira'kess Cultist

Weird tribe choice, considering that warlock got no "do somtehing if you played a naga" spell. And there's not that much intrinsic value to being a naga to begin with. (being in the discover pool of [card]Crushclaw Enforcer[/card] and [card]Amalgam …

Drek’Thar and Loatheb Are the Latest Cards To Join Hearthstone’s Diamond Club

Yep, they are really milking the proverbial cashcow here...

They are basically monetizing an animation's work that should already be priced in the whole expansion development cost...

 

At least, there's an option for buying it in …
