Of course a Santa legendary should give out presents, so Sir Kringle gives both players one of Marin the Fox's legendary treasures. It also gives the opposing player a dilemma; do they destroy it and deny their opponent a treasure, or leave it alive and get a treasure for themselves?
Next up: an epic Neutral that has Windfury synergy
New cards! I decided to go all in on the Dragon support for Descent, as well as a a lot of card generation through Invoking. I'll probably go for more classic Tactician cards (and bring back the Pandarens) for the next expansion depending on what the next expansion is, but it's been fun getting to introduce new archtypes for Tactician with Spell and Dragon Tacticians.
Check out the rest under the spoiler tag or in the main post!

Ancient powers awaken! In Descent of Dragons, Tacticians gain a whole host of Dragon minions, as well as the power to invoke Galakrond, the Ancient and summon power from the past. Nefarian, the Abomination will help you construct the perfect Dragon, while Rend, Dark Warchief will destroy any Legends that get in his way.
A (small) update! Because of finals I haven't been able to work much on the Tactician cards for Descent of Dragons, but hopefully I can release the cards this weekend. I figured I'd at least show off the Legendary Dragon for the class. Introducing Nefarian, the Abomination.
Nefarian works similar to Kazakus. You'll Discover twice from six "Aspects" based on the different Dragonflights (you can't pick the same aspect twice). The two aspects chosen will be fused into your Chromatic Dragon.

For example, if you choose the Black and Green Aspects, your Chromatic Dragon will look like this:
Because there are only six options to choose from, you can plan for certain abilities and play Nefarian accordingly.
Update! I figure it's time for Tacticians to enter the Battlegrounds.
Excuse the wonkiness of the golden card text, Hearthcards woudn't let me print it the same as the standard cards. I've started planning out cards for Descent of Dragons, but I'll wait for the full set to reveal so that I don't make any duplicates of real cards.
I figure a djinn Archimonde would grant you a wish, but in more of a Monkey's Paw kind of way. It gives you the card that Zephrys would recommend highest without having to play Highlander, but in exchange your opponent also gets a card perfect for them. Be careful what you wish for...
I'm sure there's some marketing reason for it, but I've never understood why they don't start reveal season right after the announcement and capitalize on the hype. Instead they wait three weeks before they're willing to say anything else about it.
A Loa Legendary that rewards large boards.
Next up, a Legendary elemental.
"One warlock's discard is another kobold's shiny"
Next up, a Descent of Dragons card.
"In the Untitled game, you win or you honk"
Next up, a neutral Mech.
Note that it 'Stealth until your next turn' doesn't apply until you play the Dragon.
Next up, a Murloc with spell synergy.

A variation on Dark Arakkoa, but a friendly one this time.
Next up: a Warlock minion with Overkill.
Embiggen is a great reference I wouldn't have expected.
The left-most one.
An okay Lightning Storm without a Dragon, but a better Frost Nova with one.
Next up, a Paladin minion that synergizes with Divine Shield.
If only Hobgoblin triggered on summoned minions instead of played, this would be maximum meme potential.
A combo piece that gets you an extra Elemental and triggers its synergy for next turn.
Next up, a Warlock Beast minion.

Next up:
Of course you have to have Galakrond in your deck for the Invoke to trigger, but if you do they're actually pretty good.
A mini Nozdormu to break out whenever you need it. Not too powerful, but could tech against certain combo decks.
Next up: in honor of Descent of Dragons, make your own Galakrond for one of the non-E.V.I.L. classes.
