We'll have to see if there's anything else coming in for deathrattle rogue. At the moment its staying alive and getting [card]ticket master[/card] to die thats the problem. The weapon helps, but more is needed to make it at least tier 2.

1 star for being bad. 5 stars for the humor.

Its an ogre card. Not since [card]ogre brute[/card] has any of them actually seen ranked play. This one will continue that trend.

Its weird, because the risk and rewards are basically at polar opposites to one another.

Unfortunately, this is a card more for streamers to scream about to their fans. Far as competitive is concerned, it can easily give you a massive advantage on top of being a soft taunt, or it can make you curse at your screen and …

It doesnt look all that good now, but no doubt further reveals will show why this card was printed at all.

On its own as a 4 drop weapon its fairly expensive as a value card but it still does hit face for 8 and that has got to count for something. The extra deathrattle value may be what …

Its so baffling how weak this card actually appears that Im doubting myself for giving this a bad rating.

Maybe its the presumptive winner of this expansions 'Lady Liadrin' Award.

Or maybe its exactly what it looks like: shite on a stick.

Just no. Paladin isn't exactly hurting for heals and aside from the fact that this cant even kill your opponent, there's certainly better weapons than this one like [card]underlight angling rod[/card] and [card]sword of the fallen[/card]. Even [card]truesilver champion[/card] essentially does the job better.

What signals are team5 sending us? Is this card really so OP if it could …

My favourite archetype for rogue has practically been signalled.

So what's in it for rogue? At the moment not much. There's simply not many good deathrattles around for rogue unless you like to shuffle more pushies into your deck. But I remain optimistic that a card like this cannot exist without a few better deathrattles being printed for the …

If youre right, then that's more the pity for this card.

Oh well, going for value it shall be then.

Its certainly very strong, close to broken. But in the wrong class, because shaman can't draw much that isn't an elemental and they certainly don't play for value right now. Basically you'll never want this in your hand during the first 6 turns and then when it does show up its only true function would be to reload your hand.

Its certainly a different [card]brann bronzebeard[/card], perhaps broken even.

You can play a bunch of smaller battlecries to repeat the essential first one. Like reloading your hand with [card]primal dungeoneer[/card]'s battlecry or [card]venomous scorpid[/card]'s. Or somehow attain lethal with [card]mistrunner[/card]'s, [card]fire elemental[/card] or [card]circus medic[/card]. Maybe we'll be hearing more from [card]pen flinger[/card] sooner than we think.

It …

Its actually not really as good as it seems. The first problem with this card is that its a 6 mana card with no taunt or rush. The second problem is that its a low stated card for a 6 drop. So essentially its too slow for aggro decks and a bit too small for midrange. The only way you'd …

Demonlock is not very far off from being viable, but the fact that this card is not a demon himself really pulls the power level of this card slightly. One of the reasons why [card]crystalweaver[/card] was a playable card was because it comes on turn 4 and is a decent stated minion himself. And that was a different time in …

Honestly, had the reward ended with the upgraded hp, it would still be one of the best revealed quests so far.

The point is that the quest is very easy to complete. First day of school already completes the first tier and you only need another 3 more 1 costed cards to do the next. The fact that the …

It could be better, and could actually get better as dhunters get more fel spells worth casting.

At the moment, the only thing this card can do is to finish games, and dhunters have plenty of those already - not to mention that this one comes with a condition that you need to actually draw and play those spells …

On paper it looks powerful. Being able to essentially hit for at least 6 damage from the double [card]fury (rank 2)[/card] at minimum is fairly respectable. But the most you can ever manage would be 2x fury and 2x [card]chaos strike[/card], with maybe 2x [card]eye beam[/card] and that's about it. And note you really got to play those spells before …

[quote from="Iksar"]I think the main takeaway is that if I were to make a list of all Hearthstone cards in standard and ask players to pick their favorite one. I imagine Illucia would be high on the list. That has to count for something.[/quote]

Really? Is there really a big illucia following in hearthstone? Far as I know, its …

Oh this is just amazing. No, not the reward. The fact that the second prize is to basically allow you to play odd paladin in standard. And what do we have to do to claim this prize? Play six 1 mana cost card. That's it?

So basically you fill your deck with fifteen 1 cost card/minions, get the upgraded …

I was wondering if outofcards would actually feature this in an article, given the busy schedule and all that.

Guldan's story has got to be one of the best if not straight up the best of the lot. That says alot for a character that was killed off in warcraft 2. Other characters may have longer stories, but only …

Its important that this card has the tradeable keyword because otherwise its really so niche in standard that I cant really see anyone playing it.

There is a possibility of a demonlock somewhere in standard right now, and since that deck is midrange this card can slot in easily. But not being a demon itself really makes it less …

Deathrattle dhunter or spell mage works pretty well. Basically able to guarantee weapon on 1, boar on 2, skull on 6, deathspeaker on 7 is pretty nuts.

For mage, its basically incanter's flow on 2 everytime all the time.
