Three New Rogue Cards Revealed For Hearthstone's Throne of the Tides Mini-Set

[card]Jackpot![/card] - Fodder for [card]wildpaw gnoll[/card] and nothing else, at the moment anyway. But I suspect it'll never see any play past meme decks regardless. Rogue simply does not have the sustain for long value games.

[card]Inkveil ambusher[/card] - …

New Warrior Spell - Clash of the Colossals

There is a world where this card isn't completely trash. Since you'll be playing your colossal first you have the inherent advantage, and most warrior decks that play this probably have answers to an opposing colossal minion anyway.

But the …

New Warrior Minion - Tidal Revenant

Arena monster, standard minnow.

Basically if this is in your warrior deck I dont think you'll be winning many games. The ability to deal 5 damage, gain 8 armor is good, but if this is your response on turn …

New Warrior Minion - Igneous Lavagorger

Its really suffering from competition right now. [card]Onyxian drake[/card] is the better 4 mana taunt, and this card doesn't remove a threat.

But essentially, its not a bad card. Being able to dredge, gain armor and a 3/5 taunt …

New Druid Minion - Herald of Nature

Yeah, team5 just cant help themselves. Remove [card]savage roar[/card], introduce [card]arbor up[/card]. Then remove arbor up and then this card comes along. Will we ever have a year where druids aren't just killing you because you have the temerity of …

New Druid Spell - Moonbeam

This card allows druid to have a gameplan that's not ramp to 20 and win. And because its much more flexible than most other cards its not entirely useless against aggro neither, unlike the alex+brann deal.

Just one of …

New Druid Minion - Spirit of the Tides

It has to be respected, that's about the only praise I'll ever be affording this card. If its on board you'll kill it, rather than ignore it.

Any druid deck that plays this is inherently playing aggro, so in …

New Shaman Spell - Command of Neptulon

The card on its own merits is good if not great. Its not only board but also answers, and if you value trade its just nuts on 5.

The problem is really just the case of whether you really …

New Shaman Minion - Clownfish

If there was a card that would elevate this archetype its this card. Basically you'll dump your hand with this card alone, or cheapen [card]gorloc ravager[/card] for turn 4. Its just flexible enough that it'll make just about anything possible …

New Shaman Minion - Tidelost Burrower

6/6 on 4 is already decent. Being able to dredge, and load up the board is even better.

Just a good murloc on 4. For murloc shaman, which features bloodlust as a win con, that's really enough. Certainly I …

New Warlock Minion - Herald of Shadows

Its not a bad card but current in warlock there's really very little proactive shadow spells around, so even triggering this card's effect is tricky, let alone doing it on curve.

And then there's the fact that any deck …

New Warlock Minion - Commander Ulthok

Its just bad. There's plenty of memes up in reddit faceswapping this card with [card]millhouse manastorm[/card] and that's an apt comparison. Because for the price of infinite mana to your opponent you put up a good stated minion on turn …

Three New Warlock Cards Revealed For Hearthstone's Throne of the Tides Mini-Set

The card will likely suffer the same fate. Because strictly on its viability its really just a tech card which I suspect is designed to prevent curselock mirrors from camping to fatigue.

I call it the new glide because …

Three New Shaman Cards Revealed For Hearthstone's Throne of the Tides Mini-Set

Im a bit doubtful, but I haven't actually play murloc shaman this meta yet. You play this on turn 3 along with another murloc so your ravager cost 3 on turn 4, but is that really a scary enough play? …

New Warlock Spell - Immolate

Its hard counter against combo and control. In fact its so hard that I feel that only reason for justifying its design is because team5 reckons that warlock usually never have trouble against these archetypes with or without this card. …

Three New Shaman Cards Revealed For Hearthstone's Throne of the Tides Mini-Set

[card]Tidelost burrower[/card] - A strong murloc option. That is to say, if its ever going to be viable at all. Currently murloc shaman isn't all that popular but according to hsreplay is holding its own. Unfortunately, in standard right now, …

Three New Druid Cards Revealed For Hearthstone's Throne of the Tides Mini-Set + Watch Feno & Crew's Live Review

[card]spirit of the tides[/card] - Probably never played. The last thing an aggressive druid needs is to skip curve just so this card can elevate itself once.

[card]herald of nature[/card] - Team5 removes [card]savage roar[/card], prints [card]arbor up[/card]. Then …

Three New Warlock Cards Revealed For Hearthstone's Throne of the Tides Mini-Set

[card]immolate[/card] is the new glide. Basically someone at team5 got dumped by his childhood sweetheart one day and swears revenge on the world of hearthstone. Its not about the viability of the card, which to be frank, isn't going to …

Three New Warrior Cards Revealed For Hearthstone's Throne of the Tides Mini-Set

[card]igneous Lavagorger[/card] - Not too bad as a defensive card. [card]From the depths[/card] may be the go to option for control warrior right now, but I still think you can run both. Just remove something like heavy plate for it, …

Throne of the Tides is the Voyage to the Sunken City Mini-Set! Releases June 1, See the First New Card Reveals

Aggro decks would love it because its basically delaying an answer from the opponent. And because aggro decks tend to pressure face most of the time, delaying a card for one turn may prove decisive.

But if youre not …
