    So we've got Dun Baldar Bunker, which makes this minion much more consistent. If secret hunter does well next expansion, this minion will definitely be in the deck.

    This minion will be MVP in arena. Really great value and you don't even need to kill the enemy minion, just attack. Only time with will be bad is playing it on an empty board, so definitely more of a savior card that can turn the tide in your favor.

    So this can consistently freeze the board when played against a bunch of big threats, like big demon DH for example. It's not bad, but I'd think Frost Nova is better if you need the freeze, the 1 damage to each minion isn't too great. Can be combined with Cheaty Snobold for 4 damage for 6 mana, not bad but you'll probably end up freezing your Cheaty Snobold too.

    We only have the one frost spell in standard atm (Snowball Fight! at the time of writing) so we'd need to see many more frost spells if Bearon will be any good.

    Really nice value and will probably find a home in big spell mage. The snowman and future snow monsters are elementals, but doesn't have elemental synergy seeing as they summoned from spells. Nice value if one of the spells is cast from Magister Dawngrasp

    When will Blizzard learn to stop printing more mana cheat for mage? Especially for spells. If this reduced the cost of minions only, they sure it would incentivize minion builds for mage again. But nope, more support for Quest Mage/No minion mage, so yay...

    This is 5 mana do nothing, pray you don't die before next turn. I know Skull of the Man'ari costs 1 more and saw plenty of play, but that was a different era and meta. If you really want this sigil to work, you need to play it along with something else in the same turn, so most times, you won't play it on turn 5 which is the best turn to cheat out a Pit Lord or other big demon. I'm fairly certain big demon DH will be viable next expansion, but this sigil is too risky to run

    So I think this legendary is meant for a token druid where you have a wide board. I do feel it's more of a win more card and the effect is kinda lackluster. I'd be surprised if it makes it into a tier 1 token/aggro druid

    Wow, this is a really good deathrattle minion for priest that draws 2 specific spells from different schools. Nothing about this card is bad, and it might see play in a non-deathrattle focused control priest,

    So HP mage support but 2 expansions too late? Not sure where you'd use this card, maybe after you've played Magister Dawngrasp? The more I look at it, the more I think it's not needed. Maybe big spell mage can utilize the card for stalling?

    So Clawfury Adept can be used in 2 archetypes from the looks of it. The new midrange beast (which probably won't be great) and token/aggro druid. You could always pair this with Sow the Soil for a "build your own Savage Roar"

    This card will only be good if the whole token DH archetype is good. The stats are bad for this day and age, so he won't last long and will probably only summon 2 1/1s. Might be good enough? Will have to test it out, but highly doubt the token archetype will be meta.

    So people are comparing this to Restless Mummy, but it's even better coz it's +2 attack more. You'd only ever play this card when you want to deal 8 damage, so 99.999% of the time you're summoning 2 demons.

    So I don't think you'd ever remove shadow or fire spells from your deck, just to make Felfire in the Hole! consistent. I'd think the spell tutor would be the most valuable aspect from this card. The +1 extra damage is just a cherry on top

    Lol, definitely a meme comparison to Chillwind Yeti. Will be good in arena I'm sure, coz that's where he'll be living.

    I really like this card, coz most times, you'll get a good minion with an effect attached to it. You obviously want to trigger the honorable kill effect or this would just be a much worse Holy Smite. This spell might even be good in the new deathrattle priest, as getting a copy of your opponents deathrattle minion would be good on most occasions.

    This card alone gives me hope for deathrattle rogue. Priest and Hunter have some really good deathrattles and the 2 mana discount basically makes Reconnaissance free. Also remember, the Primes are still in standard, so those will be good value to get too.

    Depressing flavor aside, this is a lot of stats in one beast. 9/14 across 3 bodies, and they all have taunt. Pretty crazy power creep when compared to Savannah Highmane. I doubt this card alone will push the big beast hunter, but we do have the new Wing Commander Ichman that can synergize with this beast.

    Well, Odd Taunt warrior in wild is grinning ear to ear. This card alone makes control warriors rejoice and will stop many aggro decks in their tracks. Just remember, this is 6/12 in stats across 3 bodies. Sure, you have to pay the cost of the grunts, which I assume will also be 3 mana, but it's still a lot in just one card.

    At first I thought Kurtrus was mediocre due to the battlecry, but it's the HP that will win games most times. The OTK potential looks promising, but would probably recommend having some sort of silence or removal in case taunts are a thing next expansion.
