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 …

New Death Knight Minion - Corpse Bride

That corpse requirement is the biggest problem here. Spending so many corpses to build up a board that will likely simply be removed by 1 card from your opponent. Perhaps in unholy decks this card can see some play in …

New Death Knight Spell - Anti-Magic Shell

The +1+1 buff is minute, and this card costs 3. Forget about the 'elusive' keyword because if ever you're playing a card like this then youre likely an aggro deck where this keyword matters very little.

Would likely see …

New Death Knight Weapon - Frostmourne

Its [card]frostmourne[/card]. Basically the least desirable card from the lich king set of cards.

Too expensive on 7, and still a doubt on 6 with [card]runeforging[/card]. Reminds me of cards like [card]flamereaper[/card] and the now neverplayed [card]gorehowl[/card]. Fact is …

Blizzard's Battle.Net Twitter Tweets Fake Hearthstone Card Reveals For Death Knight's Core Set

Such a weird article to wake up to honestly.

Blizz, in their official capacity, should not have attempted it, but its really just an honest joke. The bombast effect of the cards alone should be informative in of itself. …

New Death Knight Minion - Skeletal Sidekick

Only for aggro but in most cases you'd rather just play [card]beaming sidekick[/card] because 2 extra health is worth more than 2 extra attack.

But DK does come with plenty of reborn minions meaning this card is never really …

Frostmourne is a New Legendary Death Knight Weapon for Path of Arthas Revealed by IGN + Anti-Magic Shell

Funny thing is that [card]frostmourne[/card] used to be the worst DK card you can get off lich king, and right now it's here again completely unaltered. I dont rate its chances to be honest. 15 damage to the face is …
