New Mage Spell - Elemental Companion

Another card thats mostly strong out of a discover option rather than outright inclusion

Its mad to think that [card]animal companion[/card] was once the premier 3 drop card that's played in just about any hunter deck. Nowadays, hunter just …

New Death Knight Minion - Prosthetic Hand

Its yet more mechs for paladin (yay) I guess that means it might see some play in some capacity assuming that people even still want to play mech pally at all.

The few niches it has outside of a …

New Priest Spell - Pendant of Earth

Potential to be one of the most disgusting normal cards ever printed in a set.

Imagine gaining anywhere from 6-8 armor and drawing a card for three mana. And for two of the most toxic classes available too.

New Druid Minion - Trogg Gemtosser

Its probably not a good card, but this is one of those that needs to be tested.

Because three mana to do 10 damage cant be all that bad. But it is very slow and its random, meaning it …

New Warlock Spell - Chaos Creation

Only ever relevant to warlock. No priest deck will play this.

Nuff said really. Its not even a good card for warlock as it is.

 

Edit: seems that Ive mistaken it for a priest card. Oh …

New Druid Spell - Crystal Cluster

Only good thing here is I dont think this will ever replace [card]nourish[/card] because its just too slow

Bad thing is that if this works it'll be one of the most toxic cards ever conceived by team5 and will …

New Warlock Spell - Soulfreeze

Broken as hell, and would at some point be nerfed.

Because really, you cant grant mage more freeze effects without it being toxic and granting warlock freeze effects will almost certainly cause a ruckus with so many combo decks …

New Warlock Minion - Elementium Geode

Decent draw option but perhaps a bit redundant. Because hp on 2 is basically the same net of cards as this card would bring, but you take two extra damage.

Perhaps a little too much, but then again even …

New Druid Minion - Gloomstone Guardian

This is where we'd look at team5 and start asking questions because what the fuck is this.

4 mana 6/8 taunt? Is this what hearthstone is today? I guess team5 looked at [card]anubisath defender[/card] and thought this would be …

New Priest Minion - Glowstone Gyreworm

Want to like a card like this but I cant.

If sunspot dragon didnt get a look, whyd this card would? Id give this respect simply because of lifesteal but not any further than that because I dont think …

New Priest Spell - Shattered Reflections

Immediately that comes to mind is that this card is not great.

But yet somehow Im concerned because druid has shown time and time again that cards that copy, reduces mana, or in some cases both is and can …

New Priest Minion - Hidden Gem

I'll respect it because it has stealth. Apart of that, this card is just the kind of thing you get out of discovers and feel happy for yourself because I cant see any deck including this in it on purpose.

New Rogue Spell - Fool's Gold

I cannot for the life of me understand whyd anyone would want to play this card unless its to grind out achievements.

Practically unplayable simply because the pool is massive and the minions arent great. Even as an option …

New Priest Spell - Shadow Word: Steal

Look broken until you realise that 90% of the time this is just a 5 mana to remove one minion, which makes it actually worse than [card]assassinate[/card]

So, this card gives you the option to steal a minion off …

New Warrior Spell - Burning Heart

Its 1 mana deal 3 damage to face.

Most of the time its single most utility is indeed to do just that. As to whether it'll see play outside highlander, probably not. Best chance is in dhunter where dealing …

New Rogue Weapon - Quick Pick

Its a fine card for what it is.

Probably more relevant to rogue that dhunter since rogue needs the draw more urgently than dhunter and a 2 mana draw 2 is handy.

New Warrior Location - Crimson Expanse

This card is basically here to save a minion from being removed.

So cards like [card]illidari inquisitor[/card] can be saved for the next turn and lose absolutely nothing in initiative.

But of course, the real power of this …

New Neutral Minion - Stone Drake

I love this card.

But hearthstone has moved beyond these things. Still, it is a taunt minion that cant be interacted with.

Dont think it'll make much impact but you got to respect the taunt and lifesteal at …

New Demon Hunter Minion - Shadestone Skulker

Its more relevant to rogue, since it allows poison rogue to essentially remove minions without sacrificing weapon swings. Plus, with enough durability you might scupper your opponent's plans to viper it, since they now have to get rid of this …

New Neutral Minion - Shale Spider

If youre playing an elemental deck this card is a shoo-in.

If youre not, then this card is trash.

So is viability is stuck to elemental decks. Have to respect it, but I dont think I'll be seeing …
