New Neutral Minion - Mor'shan Watch Post

This is a good anti-aggro tool, but that's just about it I guess. It might not even be that good in that role since it only summons 1 2/2 Grunt, whatever that is.

New Warrior Minion - Overlord Saurfang

Saurfang finally found his way to Hearthstone! Really cool. 

And I never thought I'd see the resurrect mechanic in Warrior. We haven't seen that many Frenzy cards yet so it's hard to gauge the power level of this card, …

New Neutral Minion - Barrens Blacksmith

Has potential as long as [card]Animated Broomstick[/card] and [card]Pen Flinger[/card] are in standard to activate its frenzy effect. That said, this might be too slow especially with classes getting multiple AOEs and board control tools.

New Demon Hunter Spell - Sigil of Silence

I initially thought this was bad, but after thinking about it, this could be a setup for a lethal blow to your opponent the next turn. Play [card]Sigil of Silence[/card], then gear up all your attack and weapon damage for …

New Druid Minion - Razormane Battleguard

Taunt Druid was one of the decks I hated facing the most back then. Thankfully there's no [card]Hadronox[/card]-type card this time around, so maybe this new archetype they're pushing won't be as annoying. 

That said, [card]Razormane Battleguard[/card] is a …

New Druid Minion - Plaguemaw the Rotting

This will be super annoying with [card]Greybough[/card]. Interesting card that's obviously pushing another Taunt Druid archetype, I can't wait to see the rest of the set to see if it will be viable. Druid already has some reliable taunt cards …

New Warrior Minion - Rokara

Pretty good. Looks like they're pushing Tempo Warrior in the next expansion. This could be a strong tool in that deck.

New Demon Hunter Minion - Death Speaker Blackthorn

Yikes, this has the potential to be a problematic card. Thank goodness [card]Coilfang Warlord[/card] is an 8-mana card...

I hope the devs print some playable deathrattle minions for this archetype. Right now, there aren't any good deathrattle minions that …

New Demon Hunter Minion - Vengeful Spirit

I haven't really checked the deathrattle pool, but a fairly-statted body with a tutor effect is nothing to sneeze at. Right now it might not see play, but if DH gets access to some wicked deathrattle cards in the future …

New Neutral Minion - Kargal Battlescar

Eh. Looks like a late-game bomb whose detonation isn't all that worth it, because employing a watch post strategy seems incredibly weird. I'll be pissed off if I unpack this as one of my legendaries.

New Priest Minion - Xyrella

Board clears with a body are almost always good, and Xyrella is a good one despite the healing condition. Priests have lots of cheap heals like [card]Renew[/card], [card]Desperate Prayer[/card], and those 1-mana heal-5 cards whose names I forget. Even playing …

Hearthstone Reveals Details on Forged in the Barrens Rewards Track

Having more rewards on the Tavern Pass is great. I'm thinking of purchasing it again because it seems worth it. I just hope it's the same price as the first one. 

Those Warrior and Demon Hunter skins are meh, …

New Mage Minion - Varden Dawngrasp

This is a great card, synergizes really well with the new 0-mana Mage spell ([card]Flurry (Rank 1)[/card]). That is a massive board clear if the effect can be triggered, and [card]Frost Nova[/card] with a body at the very least.

New Shaman Minion - Firemancer Flurgl

This looks strong. Its effect can hit face, so you can chip away at your opponent's health which is huge for Murloc/aggro decks. Reminds me of [card]Altruis the Outcast[/card].

New Warlock Minion - Blood Shard Bristleback

Not really sure how this can be used, but it's interesting nonetheless. Maybe a fast Warlock deck that draws lots of cards can make full use of it. I'll have to wait and see whether any other Warlock cards can …

New Hunter Minion - Tavish Stormpike

A lot of possibilities with this card. Furthermore, it's an ongoing effect so it warrants instant removal.

New Priest Spell - Condemn (Rank 1)

A good card for slow Priest decks. I'm not impressed by its power level (waiting for 10 mana just to get a 3-damage board clear?), but it will have its uses.

New Demon Hunter Minion - Kurtrus Ashfallen

I'm not sure how this minion works; will it attack the left- and right-most minions simultaneously, or one by one? If it's the latter, this will probably be a bad removal tool unless it gains that outcast effect. Not a …

New Neutral Minion - Kazakus, Golem Shaper

This looks like a fun card. The deck restriction isn't that restrictive like the no-duplicates one, so this will see play in specific decks. Can't wait to see the keywords you can put in the golems; my guess is you …

New Rogue Minion - Oil Rig Ambusher

That is really curious wording, so it probably means the 4-damage can be triggered by simply bouncing this back into your hand. It's like [card]Eviscerate[/card] with a body, except a little harder to pull off. 

My question is, if …
