1 mana deal 3 has always been good, and this gives a corpse when you kill a minion with it. And early on you can easely use this on a 1 mana 1/3 or 2 mana 2/3 minion. This really reminds me of Holy Smite but with an additional effect on top of it.

This seems really good, i expect this to see a lot of play. 

Fireball that can't go FACE, but has lifesteal. I'm not certain on this card. It seems like a good removal tool, yet it also reminds me of Tidal Surge and Canal Slogger. Tidal Surge is 1 mana cheaper but heals 2 less. And Canal Slogger heals the same amount, but for overloading 1 mana you get a 6/4 minion attached. I don't think this will see play, unless Blood DK is despirate for single target removal. After all, this will probably only see play in Blood DK decks. If it could go FACE though, then that would be a totally different story.

Hmm seems like a decent ping, but the problem is that most minions early game are 1/3s so the breakpoint isn't that good. Also it deals self-damage which might not be decent. This seems like a aggro card honestly, and you probably want to use this for FACE damage. But even then dealing damage to yourself might not be beneficial, considering health is a pretty important resource in a mirror match. Also this existing makes The Scourge worse.

I dont think this will see play in Blood DK decks, and i'm not 100% certain if this sees play in a 2x unholy + 1x blood DK deck. (Mostly because the 3x Unholy rune cards are just incredibly good.)

And here i thought Blood DK was a control archetype deck. But for some reason they give it handbuffs to only attack? Not only that but half of these cards basically are at their best in a aggro deck.. And the handbuffs look like some kind of aggresive handbuff stuff, despite the fact that blood DK is supposed to be the "control" version of Death Knight. I hope the 2+ blood DK runes will be more Control focused, because this honestly feels like their trying to make the 1x blood rune cards compete for the last rune in a 2x Unholy DK deck...

I get that they want the 1x rune cost cards to be good enough to make people think about other options then running a 3x same rune DK deck, but i'm not sure what frost DK wants from these cards. (Besides that weapon, thats decent. But frost has a better weapon) Meanwhile Unholy DK wouldn't mind half of these cards.

Gaining corpses with unholy DK is easy and this attack buff is a great finisher. This is kinda like a Bloodlust, so i think this will make a aggro SMOrc unholy DK viable. The only downside i can see is that you cant run a frost rune for more draw, but i feel like no-rune DK cards like Acolyte of Death will suffice.

The Acolyte has a Frost Rune :P Perhaps you were thinking of Chillfallen Baron?

Whoops, i'm gonna be honest: I forgot about the frost rune. But yeah cards like Chillfallen Baron was what i tried reffering to. Thank you for pointing out my mistake!

Hmm this is a interesting card. This seems nice in a midrange Unholy DK deck, because its a nice reload. And if it gets cleared you get a bunch of corpses. But i'm not convinced about this being a good card in a full-on aggro Unholy DK (Like the triple unholy rune DKs) for one reason: The cost.

It costs 9 mana which is a big deal. This can only be played LATE into the game, and most aggro decks probably dont want to run a 9 cost board refill.... unless Sire Denathrius remains not-nerfed. Actually now i think about it... Sire Denathrius exists, so this is actually a pretty good card. Turn 9 The Scourge into turn 10 Sire Denathrius seems good.

summons minions, gains corpses instantly yeah this will be a BIG reason for running pure Unholy DK. Additionally this helps you setup a Grave Strength turn. Incredible 5/5 star card.

Wow well here is a 5/5 star card. This is a 5 mana 7/7 worth of stats, has immidiate impact on the board and on top of that it will generate a total of 5 corpses after it dies. Oh and even on top of that it only costs 1 unholy rune, which means that 2x blood/frost rune decks can include this as a corpse generator and removal option. This is a very good minion and even if you play this on a empty board it will probably be annoying to remove unless your opponent plays neutral-defile.

2 mana 3/4 seems good. Just costs a single corpse for the buff which is easy during mid/late game, but i do wonder if you can trigger it on turn 2, which is the dream. So far it seems like thats only possible if you play Body Bagger on turn 1. Yeah i think this might see experimentation but i'm not sure if it makes the cut in most refined deck lists.

Edit: just saw the 1 mana gain 4 corpses card that costs 3 unholy runes, yeah this might slot into pure unholy decks because it might be reliable enough to trigger the battlecry on turn 2 a bit more consistantly.

Hmmm this doesnt really seem that good to me. Its just a 3 mana 3/3 and do you really want to spend 3 corpses in order to summon another 3/3 with taunt? Sure it seems sticky but honestly out of all the unholy DK cards i've seen so far this seems like the weakest one. And it costs 2 unholy runes as well, which makes it even worse i.m.o.

Auto include 5/5 star. Incredible minion and with all the corpse consuming cards we have seen this seems super easy to reduce to 0 mana. Additionally it says "this game", which means you can top-deck a 0 mana Stitched Giant. And it seems pretty good with cards like Corpse Bride in a aggro Unholy DK deck, if you got plenty of corpses and slam this down alongside the Corpse Bride on turn 5... Just wow the overwhelming amount of stats.

Seems interesting. You can transform some random low statted undead into a big rush, which is nice. This can be seen as a buff, that also had immediate impact on the board thanks to the rush effect. Imagine trading a random undead minion in and it has a summon a undead deathrattle or it has reborn, and you cast Dark Transformation on the token to buff it and remove something on the other side of the board. This looks like a pretty good tempo-swing. And Unholy DK has plenty of undead minions, so that doesn't really limit the amount of minions you can target with this. Yeah i think this will be a solid card in Unholy DK.

Insane card. This seems like a better "how long will this go on?", and its in unholy DK so you also have Anti-Magic Shell in case some of these survive. For 4 mana you also get 3 corpses and their taunts that protect your other minions. This also looks very good for 2x Blood + 1x Unholy DK as it helps with protecting FACE and creating corpses. Just overall a super solid minion that is very sticky and can lead to some strong follow-up.

Ooh a very sticky card, and if you use 4 corpses to get the reborn the card will technically pay itself back in terms of corpse total. This seems pretty good for protecting your other minions, and might help setup a Anti-Magic Shell turn. This seems pretty good.

Nice and probably pretty consistant discover card. But it does cost 2 unholy runes, which is kinda bad considering Unholy DK seems to be this Aggro SMOrc archetype. So unless there will be a more midrangey Unholy DK deck, this probably will see fringe play. But hey maybe im wrong and this card completely blows my expectations.

Hmm, this seems kinda akward because you have no say in which minion gets shredded... BUT this obviously will see play in DK decks that want to SMOrc, and have many corpses. So having a way to get a bunch of corpses instantly will probably be appreciated, additionally this thins out your deck which has always been strong. And shredding a minion is often not bad in a more "vomit out minions and damage" kinda deck.

This also synergises really well with cards like Corpse Bride. So i think this will see play.

Wow, this looks like such a interesting way to fill your board. This seems very good for Unholy DK for creating corpses, and maybe decent for Blood DK as well considering you need to run only 1 blood rune. 

The only problem i see with this card is that you need to have some way to clear the board afterwards, because otherwise this is 3 mana do nothing. On top of that you need to be behind on board to play this, which might be akward for Unholy DK, as it's supposed to be the "board swarm"y DK archetype.

Very solid 4 drop. Frost DK likes it because it deals damage to their opponent and their minions, this way the opponent has lower hp during their combo turn. Unholy DK probably also likes it because it generates a bunch of corpses and deals damage. This just seems very good for frost/unholy DK, but i don't know how much blood DK will like it. This wont be the main reason a blood DK runs a frost rune, but if they do add a frost rune for draw then they probably also include Thassarian into their deck because its just a good minion.

These seem like decent to good cards, but i'm not certain if it will be worth running full frost-DK. Really depends on the 1 rune cost Unholy/Blood rune cards. But if those 1 cost blood/unholy rune cards will anywhere near as good as the 1 cost frost cards, then it will be quite difficult to choose between the full frost package or 2x frost + 1 unholy or blood rune.
