4 mana 6/6, not bad. But aggro decks want to play something more impactful on turn 4. It's more of an arena card which is fine but nobody wants to play this guy without triggering the battlecry.
Pretty nice tutor for freeze shaman and control warrior but if those 2 decks suck, this won't see much play. Mage and Hunter could also run this card if they desperately needed draw.
So being neutral, it can fit in many decks like token DH/druid, rush warrior and maybe zoolock. It's not the best card in the world, but past experience has told us that effects like these see play.
I'm sure there's a way we can abuse this minion down the line. Reminiscent of Swamp King Dred but being a low cost, there's spells you can use to make this a scary threat.
Maybe a Nazmani Bloodweaver miracle priest will try use this card? Only real hand buff classes atm are Paladin and Warrior, the other classes don't really care much about hand buffs. I guess the existing hand buff paladin can use it, if they add more spells.
Well it summons a beast so might work in the new beast druid but will probably be one of the weaker cards. I'm sure druid will have a class achievement where you have to summon a certain number of 2/2 wolves.
This is just nuts and will continue to be when new choose one spells get printed out. Blizzard best remember that. It's more value in standard atm with Nourish and it specifically says card which means this applies to minions and Malfurion the Pestilent in wild too.
Well it's a good board buff for even a token druid that runs a few beasts. It's even better than Blessing of the Ancients and looks like blizzard is really trying to push this midrange beast archetype. We might get there this expansion. It'll definitely be tested out
Stats aren't premium so there's that. The mana cheat for hunter seems awkward, but guess that's the only way to play big stuff in this game now. It has potential if the big beast stuff works out in standard, but it'll probably end up being used in a wild meme OTK King Krush deck instead.
Well, this card makes Frozen Buckler much better now. You'd ideally want to play this board clear when you're behind or have no minions on board, which as control warrior, seems likely to happen. Not sure why you wouldn't pick Brawl instead though, unless you only have 2 mana to play the Frozen Buckler then this.
At first I was like: "Holy shit! This card is busted against aggro! 5 Stars!"
Think I was a bit too optimistic there, but the card is still great and there's still self damage synergies we can use. I see this card more in control warrior though, where you might not have a lot of small minions, but a few big ones, so the 1 damage to your minions shouldn't be too much of a downside. It's still good though, a Whirlwind each turn for 3 turns is nothing to scoff at.
Probably one of the worse Honorable Kill effects, seeing as it's a recycled one. Warrior has enough weapon tutor in standard right now, this is also 4 mana and we not sure if the mechanic will be easily achieved or not.
Nice card draw with Scrapsmith but Glory Chaser itself technically has taunt . If the stats were reversed and it was a 3/4, then it would be great, but at 3 health, there's many ways this can be kills with spells, bypassing all the taunts you just played. It's still a card draw engine, which will be good if control/frost/armor warrior takes off.
So basically you need weapon destruction or The Immovable Object gets out of hand...well defensively. Cariel's HP is not bad either, but the weapon is what makes the hero card insane. Also bare in mind, Suckerhook could transform your 6 mana weapon into The Immovable Object as Shaman, so nice buff to that card
Do shaman even have a 6 mana weapon or are we talking about a situation where suckerhook evolves multiple times without you using all the charges on a weapon? I think Cariel is an excellent card, and the weapon is great defensively though
Oh no, I was incorrect about the Suckerhook interaction, seeing as The Immovable Object is not a collectable card by itself. Thought evolve effects would evolve into anything, but past experiences say no.
Wonder what happens when there's a zero attack minion in hand like the eggs or Doomsayer for example. Would they instantly die from in hand? Or only when they hit the board? Will have to test it out. Aside from the question, this card won't see play, unless there's a super ultra mega meme deck that makes trolden.
Could be good in freeze shaman and control warrior, seeing as they got some frost spells too. You won't be playing this minion on turn 4 though, at best it's a turn 5 6/6. It's not bad, but there's more crazy things these days.
Thought it was very good, but now I look at it and it's average. Unless you're against a token druid or DH, the 1 damage won't do much. He might see play if aggro is rampant in the meta, so in essence, a tech card.
Pretty nice heal, especially if you want to make big paladin work. You'd ideally want to draw a 5+ cost minion from this spell to make it worth it but you'd also want to run legendary minions like Saidan the Scarlet so it's a tough call on if you want to cut small minions just for more heal.

Well, it's got deathrattle. Bad stats but deathrattle... nah... won't see play unless spawned off random generation effects or evolve.

Pretty bad honorable kill card overall though.

This is good coz of the rush. Burgle rogue might make a comeback, but you'd need your whole deck dedicated to burgle synergies if you want this gnoll to be zero mana. Not sure if this is all the burgle cards in standard atm, but there's only 9 here: https://outof.cards/hearthstone/cards/rogue?text=class&collectible=yes&standard=yes (Guess we can include Plagiarize, The Lobotomizer and Parrrley to the list too)
We'll probably need a new core set and more support till burgle rogue is seen again.
