    This is very likely going to draw a card, and the 3 Health restored is a nice bonus. Obviously a tool for slower Priest decks to stay alive against aggro while drawing cards. Probably going to see play.

    Very strong for Big Paladin decks, giving them some life back while finding one of their big minions for Cavalry Horn. It might be just enough to stall an aggressive deck, but I'm thinking the deck is probably too slow.

    An OK buff spell, a bit too expensive but it might see play. More likely that it's good for Arena and not for Standard.

    Good for Big Paladin, giving them some initiative and removal while also enabling their expensive minions. This is obviously a staple for Big Paladin regardless of the deck's power level. The more aggressive the meta is, the less viable Big Paladin will be. My guess is that we're looking at a high Tier 3 deck.

    Nice spell for defensive Paladin decks that need to protect their face while getting to their finishers. It's a bit slow, since you probably won't be able to get it on curve most of the time and will instead have to find ways to weave in a Heal spell.

    Very annoying to deal with, will only go away if you get an Honorable Kill, so kill spells and AoEs that deal over damage bring him right back. I think this will be this set's Zilliax (or Mankrik, choose whatever omnipresent Legendary minion you like). To be perfectly honest, if in two weeks we're all complaining about Korrak it's probably because the meta's in a decent place.

    A very defensive Taunt to play early against aggressive decks. If you're a really slow deck and you just need to survive, you could put this in. I'm thinking it might be too weak, but if the meta is aggressive enough it will be worth a look.

    Good for slow Mage and Shaman decks to find a little more survivability against aggressive decks. Maybe it's enough for them to include it, but I'm more thinking that those decks themselves won't be very good.

    Pen Flinger shenanigans, Warrior Whirlwind stuff, there's a few ways to trigger his buff ability. The biggest issue is that it costs 5, which makes it a lot clunkier to trigger in a tempo-positive way. Maybe we'll see it in an OTK deck.

    This could actually be really powerful. Windfury and Rush are a really great combo, and finding a 3-Health minion to hit first shouldn't be too difficult. It's definitely going to be very good in Arena, and I think I wouldn't bet against it finding a home in Standard.

    It's ok. A bit clunky to trigger the HK, and the reward isn't amazing COuld go great in Beast decks like Druid and Hunter. Probably an Arena-exclusive.

    Sticky Magma Rager. Probably goes best in Token decks where they're ok with things dying, because this dies to a stiff breeze (actually, two stiff breezes).

    More handbuff? This time with spells, so it's less about making everything big and more about making one very specific thing big. Probably a meme combo card at best.

    Good for token decks, could also be good for Handbuff decks. I like it in Rush Warrior, especially if you don't have some of the more expensive cards, and I also like it in Token Demon Hunter and Rat King Hunter.

    Well-costed Taunt that also draws two cards when it dies? Sounds pretty good to me. Great way for slower Priest decks to stay alive against aggro, while having enough Attack that it can actually threaten other decks. This is a very good minion for Control Priest, we'll see if the deck can make its presence felt.

    We're probably going to see some kind of combo deck that abuses the Cost reduction with Revive Pet and other stuff. Hunter Combo decks usually aren't much more than memes, but I'm excited to see what people come up with.

    Good Counterspell for Hunter. Doesn't fully deny the spell, but it does waste Mana and wasting your opponent's Mana is usually really good for aggressive decks. Rinling's Rifle is a lot better now (and it was already pretty good).

    Good card draw for Taunt decks. There are a lot of decent Taunt minions that, if Warrior wanted to try it out, I think the archetype could be pretty decent and at the very least could draw lots of cards.

    Very strong AoE for Control Warrior that like to stack up the Armor. It's a 5 Mana combo with Heavy Plate at the very least, so I think there's a real chance for Big Warrior to try it out and be pleased with the result.
