    Decent draw card, but laughably weak when compared to Impending Catastrophe. But also insanely strong when compared to Conqueror's Banner.

    Good warrior card. Luckely as stated in the reveal stream it has good synergy with Armorsmith! Oh wait...

    Either way this is a good control card, and will also see play in managerie decks because it's a 1 mana quilboar.

    2 mana Claw. Honestly i feel like this should just be 1 mana, and then it would be a good card. Not game breaking or anything. Just a good card.

    5 mana 7/7 with rush. Also requires nothing on board despite the fact that this fits best in a managerie/taunt package... This feel like soooo many layers of anti-synergy.

    Tutors a minion and gives it stats. Kinda gives Call to Adventure vibes. I feel like this is the best Riff.

    Mom can we get Rhyme Spinner?

    Mom: No honey, we have Rhyme Spinner at home.

    Rhyme Spinner at home:

     

    Okay time to be serious, which is difficult considering it's warrior. This seems like an alright pay-off for managery. This can get fairly big and i feel like this is one of warrior few decent cards.

    Coolest card printed in this set. I feel like this will see play in sooo many warlock decks, because it's just that cool. Also this has a better Tickatus option, so people WILL complain about this card. 

    Also Tickatus saw a lot of play even though it lowered the decks winrate. Why? People liked playing the card and milling their opponent. Symphony of Sins could just see play for the exact same reason.

    So this seems like a meme card, but i feel like this could be pretty nice to have depending on the meta. Like as long as this exists, warlock will have a way to shut down OTK meta's, and this can just be a tech card in ETC. Wouldn't be surprised if this sees play.

    Just a reminder: People loved playing Tickatus even if it lowered their winrate, so seeing effects like these does make me wonder if this will get the same treatment. (Probably not considering Symphony of Sins has better Tickatus and Rin also affects you.)

    Also in wild i wonder if this sees play in some kind of Discardlock, because this has discard synergy and messes up your opponent more than it messes you up.

    Mini-Imp King Rafaam and could just set him up. And in just a fatigue card package in lets say some kind of midrange or control warlock it might just be good enough as well. This can just summon a lot of stats.

    Insane card for controllocks. This makes your fatigue cards and hero power heal you which is really nice. I feel like this will see quite a bit of play.

    Not sure about this one. It needs a demon package, and the demons need to be alright to summon immediately. Luckely Enhanced Dreadlord among others are in CORE, so it has a little support. But i feel like there still aren't enough BIG demons to cheat out with this, and it costs 6 mana. I don't think this will be good enough for a bit, but might end up pretty good if they print more BIG Demons.

    This seems pretty nice, sticky 1 drop and can make a hero power free AND/OR make it so a fatigue card doesn't deal damage to your hero. This will see a bit of play.

    This seems alright on curve, but this mostly will see play because it powers up the other fatigue cards. So just because of those other fatigue cards, this will see a lot of play.

    Seems alright. I think this is playable for control warlocks that DON'T run a demon package.

    Incredible board clear, and i feel like this will just see play in a bunch of warlock archetypes.

    Okay so i love playing these cards, and i have a lot of experience with these kinds of cards as a result. So, thanks to my experience with cards similar to this one i know that most of these are HOT GARBAGE. And i feel like this one is as well, even with the small card pool. Why? Most cards you can generate are imp-related, not something a control-ish deck want to get. And this is a value card for slower warlock decks. This is just... bad.

    This seems quite good. It's great in overheal decks, because lets be honest spending 2 mana on your hero power is not something you normally want to do. And in shadow priest this is a great weapon as well, especially considering Shadowcloth Needle rotates.

    Incredible card. This will see a ton of play. This fits well into slower priest deck and any overheal deck, and considering overheal is evergreen this will only get more and more support!

    Seance reprint, which is why i think it's a 4/5 star card at least. The Finale can be both an upside and downside depending on who's minion you copy, but you can easely play around it. Like seriously, don't copy last. It's that easy. Seance saw a lot of play when it was in standard, and i bet this will be as well. Just a very flexible card.

    Also i love the name. Each time i read the name i immediately think it's "Shadow word:" instead of Power cord. Yeah reading is a hard thing lol.

    Seems good. 2 mana heal a bunch of minions is nice, can get buffs which is also nice AND it's a NAGA which means that naga priest has a new toy to play with. This will see play.
