Can be played as top-end for some kind of Aggro deck, but most likely just pack filler.

I already like playing with it, it's a fun card which is decently strong, without being oppressive. Also flexible as heck. I really dig it.

Great control card. Its base form is good enough, and upgrading scales quite nicely with the phase of the game. Also bonus flavor for being one of the most iconic Shaman spells.

Hard to evaluate without seeing all Nature spells, but it can serve as a giant board clear with [card]Lightning Storm[/card] or as a burst engine with [card]Lightning Bolt[/card] (especially with [card]Wandmaker[/card] giving you more [card]Lightning Bolt[/card]s). This flexibility makes me think it will have a very good chance at being a good card.

[card]Dire Mole[/card] with upside, for a class which is really dependant on a good one drop. Especially now that [card]Dwarven Sharpshooter[/card] is going away. I think this will get played in every Hunter deck for the forseeable future.

Decent by itself, absolutely balls to the walls bonkers when combined with Apotheosis, especially since [card]Wild Pyromancer[/card] is leaving. Will see play in every controlling Priest decks as a combined [card]Reno Jackson[/card] and board clear.

Bad card, not worth a slot in your deck for the effect. However, it can be nice off random generation and I can see it being played in some kind of Miracle/[card]Gadgetzan Auctioneer[/card]/[card]Nazmani Bloodweaver[/card] Priest.

Good card, but don't really see it fitting into any existing druid decks. Of course these will change massively, so I do hold out hope for this card. I can really see it taking the Beast spot in some kind of [card]N'zoth, God of the Deep[/card] druid.

While I like the idea, it would kind of delete the core of the deck and make it purely a Malygos OTK deck. In this version, Malygos is one of multiple win conditions (Dragon tempo, Vereesa). I'm looking forward to see your version of a Malygos Vol'jin OTK Hunter though!

This is something I considered, but I figured the tempo from the minions would be necessary to keep the board until the Malygos blow-out, at which point you'll most likely have played all your minions already. However, I guess a small [card]Scavenger's Ingenuity[/card], [card]Phase Stalker[/card] Secret package might work. It's hard to find free space though! What would you cut …

Might be worth updating this with the core set ;)

Aww you featured my deck! Thank you ^^

Excellent article @Avalon. I agree with pretty much all of your points here, especially considering not including too powerful cards. One point of note though: since they explicitly named [card]Shadowform[/card] as the only card returning from the Hall of Fame, it's pretty much 0 chance to see a return of [card]Azure Drake[/card] and other rotated cards.

I think it's …

Some general tips, besides the choice of decks that other have already noted:

- Use a deck tracker. No reason not to, and it gives you a big advantage it also allows you to...

- Review previous matches. Try to spot your own mistakes, both in games you won and games you lost. What choices could you have …

The fact that Season 1 winners are no longer automatically qualified for Worlds is huge. We saw it twice already, with Feno and SilverName. Especially in Europe, where the skill difference between top GMs and bottom GMs is much smaller, there is a very real chance of a rightful winner in S1 getting screwed over by bad luck in S2, …

I love Control Warlock as an archetype (just check my deck history lmao), and I like the direction you took this list in. There are three points in which I see room for improvement:

1. [card]Plague of Flames[/card]. This card is great, but I don't feel like you have enough weenies to sacrifice, and I doubt you need more …

Honorable mention: Whirlkick Rogue, getting it from [card]Jandice Barov[/card] ;) I'd also like to spotlight two decks I made with this card:

[deck]22541[/deck]

[deck]22423[/deck]

Deathwing was in Warcraft 2! Albeit not in the form in which he is a warrior hero

I'm really loving the deck spotlights you've been doing recently. The guides are very well-written and the featured decks are very unique. However, I think it's a missed chance to not take community submitted decks from right here on OutOfCards. I think this would be a nice feature for the following reasons:

1. A lot of them already have …
