New Rogue Minion - Vanessa VanCleef

Well, that's basically confirming rogue's legendary, and a fitting one too.

It has good applications, but I'm afraid its always going to be on the fringes. Its just simply not possible for a card to see inclusion into a …

New Shaman Minion - Novice Zapper

Not sure about it but its not completely trash. Its a good 3/2 for 1 on turn 1 but It cripples your 2 mana slot, unlike [card]sludge slurper[/card] which at least gives you an option for turn 2. And in …

New Neutral Minion - Deathwing the Destroyer

Better than the original. But not by much. It still discards your cards, so there's still a give and take which makes this not top of the world. But at the end of the day, its still a 12/12 swing …

New Neutral Minion - Malygos the Spellweaver

Its draws you all the spells you need. That's strong, but unfortunately, its still a 9 mana do nothing most of the time. But there's still more cards to come so there's always hope this one will surpass its predecessor.

New Neutral Minion - Peon

It looks decent, but its probably still arena fodder. No one would include a 2 mana 2/3 that only sometimes have an effect.

Too bad frenzy doesn't trigger more than once, otherwise this would be a legit threat. Oh …

New Neutral Minion - Razormane Raider

Its basically a rush minion which allows your opponent to sometimes decide for it.

Is a 5 mana 5/6 rush good? Probably not in standard. Unfortunately, since frenzy doesn't trigger more than once, I'm hard pressed to see this …

New Neutral Minion - Spirit Healer

There's some kind of inner fire priest potential with this card.

Pretty certain that the description allows her to buff herself when you play holy spells.

New Neutral Minion - Mankrik

The effect, if im not mistaken, is to send his wife into your deck, which on drawing, cast a 3/10 mankrik to kick the opponent's face immediately.

Not bad, but not really that good neither unless you draw this …

New Neutral Minion - Blademaster Samuro

If you can somehow buff this then this card is straightup insane. But that's probably the biggest problem with this card. The two classes that can easily buff its attack, warrior and paladin, already have another swing option in [card]lord …

New Neutral Minion - Shadow Hunter Vol'jin

A strong tech card. And perhaps in time it will prove too strong. Most decks would want this if only because its basically a better silence card, or a backup removal option. In some cases, it even enables a second …

New Warlock Spell - Imp Swarm (Rank 1)

Probably not good. No control deck wants this, so the upgrade is pretty moot. Its viability is solely then on the fact that its a fel spell, and even then Im sure there's simply better spells. If only it made …

New Shaman Spell - Chain Lightning (Rank 1)

It has potential certainly. Combined with [card]imprisoned phoenix[/card], this is just a 2 mana remove 2 minions in most cases, which also incidentally gets better with time.

But theres something inside me that says [card]landslide[/card] is a better card …

New Shaman Minion - Bru'kan

Until we start seeing more nature spells (my guess is that [card]lightning bolt[/card] would be one of them), this card is only a 4 mana 5/4 that only bares its rubber teeth.

Is there any reason to prefer this …

New Priest Spell - Desperate Prayer

I like that its a 0 mana spell. And that's all I will like about it until I start seeing [card]auchenai soulpriest[/card] back in standard. But because its a 0 mana spell I'm almost certain team5 would never bring it …

New Hunter Minion - Sunscale Raptor

The best thing about this card is that its a 1 mana 1/3 beast. And that alone makes it worthy of inclusion into most face hunters, let alone a more tempo beast build. The fact that this one can get …

New Druid Minion - Druid of the Plains

Its a decent card on its own, but the problem is exactly that. Druid typically plays broken cards + ramp for the win, and I'm having difficulty imagining this being part of anything druid would want to do, now that …

Our Initial Thoughts on The Three New Dragon Aspects Coming to Hearthstone's Core Set in Year of the Gryphon

Ysera is still powerful despite the 1 mana change to dream. Even if you can't cast ysera awakens on 10 in the same turn, it still more or less send a signal to your opponent that any board they build …

High Abbess Alura Is Being Nerfed - Here Are Our Thoughts on The Change to Our Priest and Paladin Friend

Probably relegate ramp paladin a great deal now that its one additional turn to bear before Alura, assuming you'd even have that card in hand, devastate the board with murlocs. To me it was an unexpected nerf, given that most …

Hearthstone Patch 19.6 - High Abbess Alura Nerfed, Barrens Pre-Order, Darkmoon Prizes is Over, Duels Balance, and More!

Its power cards are practically rotating in 1 month, which is why I thought it was unexpected. Im not denying that its bs practically wins games on 4, its just that prismatic lens used to do the same thing. What …

New Neutral Minion - Ysera the Dreamer

This one can be potentially dangerous. One of the main reasons for playing ysera at all was always to get the better dream card like [card]dream[/card], or [card]ysera awakens[/card]. Now this straight up guarantee it. If there's even a single …
