All Whizbang's Workshop Day 9 Hearthstone Card Reveals - February 29

Druid cards are fairly inbetween this time. Not obviously toxic, and yet sufficiently strong. We shall have to see whether they can actually survive in a meta without [card]nourish[/card] in it.

 

[card]owlonius[/card] - Its a win con …

All Whizbang's Workshop Day 8 Hearthstone Card Reveals - February 28

[card]Botface[/card] - Its a value card, intended to provide you with stuff to do while you get to your win con. Because realistically, with odyn being the primary win con for most if not all warriors, you dont need a …

All Whizbang's Workshop Day 7 Hearthstone Card Reveals - February 27

My review of the reveals, interesting cards only;

[card]li'na, shop manager[/card] - Its clearly a build around card that's likely more relevant to rogue and druid than any other class. But will it be a good, competitive card? Well, …

All Whizbang's Workshop Day 6 Hearthstone Card Reveals - February 26

Well, here's my opinion on the more interesting cards.

[card]factory assemblybot[/card] - In my opinion, this card will never see play outside of a big deck and even then Id contend this is not good enough. 10 mana cards …

All Whizbang's Workshop Day 5 Hearthstone Card Reveals - February 23

It looks like a bad card.

Team5 is clever. They know very well the average amount of turns games tend to end so they specifically designed this to only really work versus specific kinds of matchup i.e. control decks. …

All Whizbang's Workshop Day 4 Hearthstone Card Reveals - February 22

Its a good card, very nearly guarantees that the damage goes to face and being able to essentially board clear while doing it is just amazing.

The main problem though? Well, the battlecry basically means you'll never want to …

Patch 28.6.2 Launches Today With Changes To Standard And Battlegrounds

One of the weirdest buff patches Ive seen in a while.

Isnt most of those cards that are being buffed rotating away from standard in less than a month? Whats the overall plan here?

All Whizbang's Workshop Day 3 Hearthstone Card Reveals - February 21

Alright, its a hero card so it must be busted as hell. Certainly at 6 mana, remove one minion, and then having a hp that deals 3 damage. What more can you ask for?

Well, having a perfectly reasonable card …

All Whizbang's Workshop Day 2 Hearthstone Card Reveals - February 20

Its definitely one of those cards that can only be judged after playtesting. But from my own impression, it really looks like something that simply cannot be relied on.

So your opponent has two big minions + several smaller …

All Whizbang's Workshop Day 2 Hearthstone Card Reveals - February 20

Is there no more individual card postings in the forum anymore?

 

But the card itself? Well, its fine. Im almost certain this card will see play, and in fact it wouldnt surprise me if all mage archetypes …

Standard and Battlegrounds Changes Announced For Patch 28.6.2 This Thursday

Because brann warrior is not very good.

Sure theres always a chance they trigger brann early but then that's obscuring the fact that most games they dont. And if you face DK then that's usually about it for your …

Patch 28.6 Launches - Preorders Open For Whizbang's Workshop, Several Battlegrounds Changes, Log In Now For New Cards

Having preorder provide an exclusive card, even if on a limited timeframe, is just a poor move in my opinion.

The game itself is already going on a downtrend as it is. If ever these limited cards be part …

Hearthstone's 10th Anniversary Login Rewards Have Been Revealed

Have to say, that a lot of these gifts are just plain bad and its hard for me to imagine them seeing any competitive play outside of highlander.

Nowadays hearthstone tends to be so fast that spending 1 extra …

New Shaman Minion - Needlerock Totem

RIP [card]mana tide totem[/card]

Yes, its basically powercreeping so hard that manatide totem would be nothing more than a meme.

However, this card would likely still never see play because why would it? Drawing a card and gaining …

New Paladin Spell - Shroomscavate

The only card from paladin/shaman related to excavate that's good, and that includes the payoff.

Because this card would find itself into any aggro-based deck never mind the excavate effect, which is a neat bonus. You'd probably try to …

New Shaman Spell - Digging Straight Down

Just a terrible card. But in the end, youre probably forced to play it regardless if you aim to play excavate in shaman, not that Im all that optimistic about that prospect outside of highlander, because if I have to …

New Warrior Spell - Aftershocks

Its gonna see play, but it'll never realistically be a good card that can carry a class the same way cards like [card]bellowing flames[/card] can

As it stands, even [card]immolation aura[/card] sees no play in dhunter even when they …

New Paladin Minion - Fossilized Kaleidosaur

Would have been better if it has rush/taunt, would be better if it was discover a bonus effect.

Instead what we have here is a card thats only really playable should you somehow choose to play excavate cards in …

New Paladin Minion - Sir Finley, the Intrepid

Its playable in shaman because shaman doesnt really have lots of removal options that basically nuke the opponent's board regardless of conditions. In pally however, its a hit and miss simply because I cant see a world where paladin plays …

New Hunter Spell - Shimmer Shot

Its relevant in the current iteration of spell damage hunter but once all those cards rotate, this card would probably be dead.

On its own its just too weak, almost comparable to [card]on the hunt[/card]. Even [card]wound prey[/card] is …
