6 New Death Knight Cards Revealed by Blizzard for Hearthstone's Core & Path of Arthas Sets

The only interesting cards here is [card]bone breaker[/card] and [card]howling blast[/card], nearly all others are fairly mundane stuff, aside from [card]remorseless winter[/card] obviously powercreeping [card]consecration[/card], in case anyone needs more evidence of DK having just better stuff at launch.

New Death Knight Spell - Anti-Magic Shell
Quote From Horus

Does that mean that the rest of the OG Lich King's drops are yet to be revealed as collectible, or are they stopping at 2?

Army of the dead got altered, so …

New Death Knight Minion - Overseer Frigidara

If youre running frost this card is just a mandatory inclusion because it basically tutors other overpowered cards like [card]horn of winter[/card], [card]frostwyrm's fury[/card] etc.

The fact that this card comes with a possible AoE effect with a 5/6 …

New Death Knight Spell - Obliterate

A decent removal option but not great because you're essentially still taking damage, which is the main point of a removal option to begin with. And at 2 mana, its no better in comparison with similar removal options available for …

New Death Knight Spell - Horn of Winter

God help us, this card shouldn't be allowed to exist. Fortunately, it is not [card]lightning bloom[/card] all over again.

But Im head scratching as to why team5 even thought such a design choice is fair at all. Reminds me …

New Death Knight Spell - Glacial Advance

Just another in a line of overpowered cards for DK.

Deal 4 damage for 1 mana, no corpse requirement, paltry rune requirement. This is just a dream card for any class never mind DK. Would be nerfed before we …

Blizzard Reveals 5 New Death Knight Cards for March of the Lich King

Pretty sure it'll summon another one with reborn. And all in all it'll leave you with at least 3-4 corpses when dead, so the net spend is really not that much as it looks.

All the requirement does is …

New Death Knight Spell - Graveyard Shift

Its corpse fodder. But the interesting point about this card as the rune requirement. Seems like something that should be available to all, because its really not great, comparable to relic dhunter playing [card]relic of phantasms[/card] on turn 3 with …

New Death Knight Minion - Gnome Muncher

Its basically undead [card]zilliax[/card] but it can't choose its target and cost 1 more.

Just a good but not great card for DK. Not even sure where it fits to be honest. Blood decks would love the lifesteal but …

New Death Knight Spell - Defrost

Sure why not? Just casually draw 2 cards with 2 mana.

Im beginning to think that the class doesn't actually have any weaknesses other than corpse deprivation.

New Death Knight Minion - Battlefield Necromancer

Likely a dangerous early game option, and probably good reasons to never remove that 1 drop played on 1. Fortunately for us, the corpse risen doesn't count as a corpse when dead.

But it does wane in power somewhat …

New Death Knight Spell - Army of the Dead

Not to be confused with the original lich king card with the same name.

Basically this is just good removal. Which is weird because you'd think that unholy decks are good enough on their own without being better at …

New Death Knight Spell - Plague Strike

Just another card that will likely get nerfed because its simply powercreeping all other 2 mana removal cards.

Because if you have a removal option that can clear a total of 5 health and splitted into two parts, that …

New Death Knight Spell - Icy Touch

If there's a list of cards that are in contention for a nerf this card would be top 10. One mana to freeze and deal 2 damage, practically destroying dhunters all on its own. Not surprising that [card]ice revenant[/card] got …

New Death Knight Spell - Frostwyrm's Fury

Like seriously, do we really need to rate this card?

It'll get nerfed at some point. Im already thinking frost decks would be the best DK deck come 6 Dec, and this card just seals the deal. Only the …

New Death Knight Spell - Blood Boil

The only thing bringing this card down a tad is the fact that the damage only happens at the end of the turn. So you can't go through a taunt if there's one, and you cant dictate the board in …

New Death Knight Minion - Body Bagger

In 2016 this card would be unreal. But in 2022 its just a meh. Gain one corpse for 1 mana? The only way this ever sees any play is in a midrange burn frost deck, where even 1 corpse on …

New Death Knight Minion - Chillfallen Baron

Its very likely not good enough unless DK is really struggling for draw. The main problem is the cost. Drawing 2 for 3 is [card]arcane intellect[/card], but unlike that card this one only draws one initially. So you're really paying …

New Death Knight Minion - Malignant Horror

I like this card to be honest. 4 mana for a very sticky minion, with a net spend of 1 corpse. That's fine honestly. If youre looking to flood board this card is solid, and if there are handbuffs this …

New Death Knight Spell - Runeforging

One corpse requirement means you can never play this on 1, and there's a distinct possibility of this failing.

But let's be real here. Even if you double the requirement this card is insane, assuming of course that there …
