After watching a few streams, my own observations of sunken city's cards; Click on your own discretion

[spoiler]

- Murlock is looking decently strong, even against classes with plenty of board clears. [card]Chum bucket[/card] and [card]rock bottom[/card] are …

New Neutral Minion - Click-Clocker

Basically if this card and [card]security automaton[/card] didn't exist mechs wouldn't even be remotely viable, never mind see any play.

But happily it does, with a very powerful upside given to the right mech. If the buff hits security …

New Neutral Minion - Security Automaton

One of two good mechs in neutrals.

And this one is good. But perhaps because it costs 1 more it isn't as meta defining as stuff like [card]irondeep trogg[/card] was. Nearly every class can deal with stuff like this …

New Neutral Minion - Naval Mine

Only playable in owlock, and even then Im not optimistic because there's a reasonable ceiling to the damage possible. In nearly everywhere else its just bad.

Too bad, if magnetic came back then it has a niche in being …

New Neutral Minion - Rainbow Glowscale

Run of the mill card that does exactly what its written.

Unless you need more nagas, this card is just not going to accomplish much.

New Neutral Minion - Murkwater Scribe

Scratching my head on what this card is supposed to accomplish. Maybe naga priest? because that deck needs nagas and this card somewhat does well with [card]serpent wig[/card].

But I cant seem to see what game winning plays this …

New Neutral Minion - Reefwalker

For when you're desperate for elementals.

Because if you're not then this card is just garbage, not of the good kind.

But hey, at least it'll leave you with a 1/1 when it dies. That's how hearthstone games …

New Neutral Minion - Seascout Operator

It'll see play because there's just not enough mech synergy to go round.

Does curve well from [card]security automaton[/card] on 2. Other than that, not being a mech itself, this card is just grasping for even a shred of …

New Neutral Minion - Treasure Guard

Just play [card]acolyte of pain[/card] if you need card draw, or [card]death's head cultist[/card] if you need taunts. Trying to do both will only lead you to having none at all in the end.

1 attack means everything will …

New Neutral Minion - Pufferfist

Its likely more useful in pirate rogue than quest warrior, for the reasons that quest warrior prefers cheaper pirates and this card still costs 3 at the end. Besides, [card]defias cannoneer[/card] does the job pretty well on its own anyway.

New Neutral Minion - Gorloc Ravager

It'll only be playable if you want to play murlocs and control is everywhere, or if you can drastically reduce murlocs' costs.

If you're running for tempo, then the last thing you need is to drop a card like …

New Neutral Minion - Helmet Hermit

Its just bad, even in silence priest.

You don't want to waste your limited silence cards on stuff like these, and certainly this is not a card you want to see on your topdeck. Basically its so bad that …

New Neutral Minion - Vicious Slitherspear

Its a 1 mana naga, its a 1 mana 1/3, what more can you ask for.

If you're running aggro or nagas then this card is just a solid 1 drop with a slight upside. Only in priest can …

New Neutral Minion - Twin-fin Fin Twin

The key word here is that it summons another copy, which means you can buff this to ridiculous heights and have him swing the board for you.

Probably still see some play in paladin, outside of obvious murloc decks. …

New Neutral Minion - Mothership

Its [card]piloted sky golem[/card], a card that I dont remember ever seeing much play. And why? Costs an eye watering 6 mana. At least this card has rush so you're not hanging by your little baby carrot on 6.

New Warrior Spell - Guard the City

Why'd warrior ever play this card is beyond me. The 3 health gain for a vanilla 2/3 taunt is kinda weak considering that [card]bash[/card] is back in standard. Unless warrior goes big recruit again, this card will simply never see …

New Warrior Minion - Obsidiansmith

Apparently if you put a captain's hat on something then they're a pirate. Like, why would pirates even need a blacksmith anyway?

Well, this card nearly guarantees another pirate next turn with a small buff, and that might just …

New Warlock Minion - Sira'kess Cultist

Its a darn shame, because if team5 wanted to push curselock then this had to be a 3/4 for 3 at least. But with its stats lowered there's really not many reasons why you'd gimp your turn just to put …

New Warlock Spell - Dragged Below

Im just not optimistic that the curses are worth the trouble.

But if nothing else, this card will remove tempo and put a 2 mana tax on your opponent's hand, and if you have a board prior they may …

New Warlock Spell - Rock Bottom

Put a couple of 1/1 murlocs and then dredge for a curve on 2. That's pretty neat. Besides, since we're 100% certain a murlock deck will play [card]azsharan scavenger[/card], the value of dredge is drastically increased.

Just a decent …
