New Priest Minion - Lightshower Elemental

I love everything about this card. It's great for both midrange and control, and I am excited about how hard they are trying to give midrange tools to Priest.

People keep mentioning Rez Priest, but I find that very …

New Neutral Minion - Horde Operative

It's not the death of anything. Secret hate has never been widely played in the past, and this will be no different.

No matter how powerful you make the effect, it's still just a [card]Spider Tank[/card] in more than …

Demon Hunters Get a New Spell Mechanic in Forged in the Barrens - Sigils! Here's How They Work And What They Could Be

These are all just Secrets with the trigger "At the end of your opponent's turn." Of course, they are easier to play around than Secrets because the information isn't hidden, so they are going to be slightly more powerful for …

New Demon Hunter Spell - Sigil of Flame

The end is coming!*

Glad to see they are trying to slow DH down a bit. There may be no direct counterplay, but you can certainly play around it. Would have been better as a Secret, and I suspect …

New Hunter Minion - Barak Kodobane

Everyone complains that Hunter doesn't get enough card draw. They give you very strong targeted card draw and you don't know what to do with it.

This is a great card, and it will definitely see play. You can …

New Warrior Minion - Mor'shan Elite

Almost a copy-paste of [card]Occult Conjurer[/card], which has been extremely strong in Secret Mage, and this guy is arguably better, even considering the cost increase.

It seems a little unfair that this one gives two Taunt minions for just …

New Demon Hunter Minion - Razorfen Beastmaster

Extremely off-base, both thematically and mechanically.

Seems like Team 5 has already run out of DH ideas, so they're just stealing from the Hunter file.

New Demon Hunter Minion - Kurtrus Ashfallen

Team 5 continues to overestimate the difficulty of getting Outcast value. Ugh.

It's going to be very hard to get anything to stick on board against Tempo Mage, and if you do, it will probably just get frozen. (You just know they have more Frost …

New Mage Minion - Mordresh Fire Eye

So many people not paying attention to the card that was revealed at the exact same time.

No, against most decks it will not be hard to meet the condition for this battlecry. Not by a long shot.

Blizzard Reveals Two New Forged in the Barrens Cards for Mage - The Legendary Mordresh Fire Eye & Reckless Apprentice
Quote From aposteljoe

How will Reckless Aprentice work in other classes if they manage to generate that? Ok, Priest will heal all enemies. But apart from that? Hunter deal two to the Hero for each enemy minion? Rogue? …

New Paladin Minion - Cannonmaster Smythe

The secrets we know about are already good enough. All the bad ones are going to Wild and Classic.

That said, all this guy does is create stats on board. In fact, timing this can be fairly awkward if …

How Forged in the Barrens' Kazakus, Golem Shaper's Custom Golems Work

Because golems aren't elementals.

Elementals are sentient spirits of nature animating a portion of the substance they are named for (usually).

Golems are mindless constructs animated by magic or machinery (or both).

New Neutral Minion - Kazakus, Golem Shaper

With all the tutor effect these days, you can even fudge the 4-cost restriction a bit.

Say, for example (don't try this at home), you are a Hunter with [card]Scavenger's Ingenuity[/card], and your only Beast is a [card]Krolusk Barkstripper[/card]. …

How the Forged in the Barrens Card Reveal Season Will Work on Out of Cards
