  • Its a cycle card. Decent since Master's Call and Dire Frenzy are both leaving. But if beast hunter's gonna be a thing there's got to be better ways to reload. Otherwise it just gets out tempoed by both rogue and dhunter.

    Of course, it supports Scarlet Webweaver + Hunting Party builds. Maybe that's where it will end up in

  • The power level of this card convinces me that whatever secrets for rogue this expansion will almost certainly be easy to proct, and therefore making this a 3 mana play instead of 1.

  • Well timed. Had this news came before we knew of the changes there's gonna be a lot of pissed out players.

    As it stands, Im more upset over how underpowered Zayle, Shadow Cloak was, considering that I actually paid real money to get it.

  • Card just keep streaming down.

    Really interesting where they're trying to push shaman. Its a bit slow, so you've got to expect a big minion play and play a spell prior so you get the mana cost reduction.

    But 5 mana remove a minion is still decent I guess.

  • Good lord. Well, embiggen druid, your rogue menacing days are...OVER!

  • "Move over Illidan, you've held on to that seat long enough" said a menacing Xavius, either unmoved or unaware of Illidan's long, wide smirk. As Xavius takes the demon hunter's place, he wonders in his mind "why is everyone around me grinning and hiding laughter?

    Maybe there's a part in the story where team5 reveals a Xavius that doesnt suck.

  • Insane in rogue, mage, and very interesting in warlock

    Not so good for dhunters, priest, and paladin.

    Its statline is very good, above average. But since it works both ways, its kinda like a coin toss on whether its good. And if you play this against warlock...well, just be sure you know what you're doing

  • Its only easy to activate if its in a cheap aggro deck, but if you're running an aggro deck , playing three cards per turn at turn 5 is probably not really all that scary.

    In control-midrange decks, the card will be blocked by high cost cards.

    But hey there's always a chance of top decking this.

  • It will be there, but I dont think its playable until the expansion starts.

    In reply to Demon hunter release
  • I think the intention is to take cards from here and there for dhunter and make it part of classic. So chances are you will already have the card.

  • Not only too slow, not reliable

    Its effect is not immediate, so you can get screwed by drawing minions you cant play/cant play fast enough

    There's still hope for maly druid since Dreampetal Florist is rotating but definitely need more support

    Otherwise, this can help get big minions out early, maybe in embiggen druid. Its not a battlecry, so it still works with Strength in Numbers

  • Yet another leak?

    Well, even if it ignores taunt, that shouldnt have anything to do with Leeroy, since the old guy cant ignore taunt.

    A charge minion that can ignore taunt is quite OP, but there has to be some mitigating factor (low health, dies on the same turn, discards, overload, etc.). Since we dont know what the card is yet, its all speculation from here.

  • Not sure if the ambusher actually have stealth, but likely not.

    Its still a 2 mana cobra, and very similar to Venomstrike Trap. The nature of this trap is your opponent will likely spend all their mana getting minions in play and therefore cant respond to a 2/3 poisonous minion. Very nice indeed.

    I expect to see more secrets from rogue. Otherwise this would be too obvious to be a secret.

  • That's probably why Leeroy got HoF. But it still works well with charge and rush minions. Yeah, that's a real flexible legendary. Gonna see how many decks will try to get this in.

  • Nice to see that's its free. That's literally the first thing I saw and the best thing about the whole announcement.

    At least we dont have to get the cards from classic packs. And with the new changes to how packs work we dont get duplicates neither. Good.

  • I was expecting a 5 minute song of vengeance and lost love. Oh well.

  • You and me both. One day, one day...

  • Of course, it can be silenced, but it has rush so the deathrattle is guaranteed-ish.

    Pretty strong inclusion in just about any warrior, but perhaps too slow in aggro builds.

  • Potential turn 6 Mind Control

  • If you cant get the perks for battlegrounds by buying packs,

    well there goes my battlegrounds experience. I dont think its remotely possible to be engaged to both standard and battlegrounds. Just too expensive.
