  Hey WILD guys. One of you could write an article analysing Onyxia’s Lair impact (or lack thereof) on Wild. 
  I’m particularly not optimistic regarding the legendaries (maybe the priest one in Reno Priest?), just a couple commons for QL hunter. Anyway, it doesn’t seem to be worth the gold price. Whaddya think?

  • Demon Hunter - Nothing's to change the class, but Razorglaive Sentinel could be relevant in the future, as it's Stargazer Luna on steroids.
  • Druid - I don't think these cards add anything to current Druid archetypes that make the class stand on its feet. MAYBE Boomkin in a more aggro Druid deck, but most aggro tools they have are token based, and Untapped Potential is too risky.
  • Hunter - Absolutely Dragonbane Shot in QL Hunter. Even-costed, but gives you a damaging spells that can refill itself akin to nerfed Rapid Fire. Furious Howl is some card draw, and Pet Collector... I am not sure if she fits Wild.
  • Mage - Drakefire Amulet is lowkey my guilty pleasure as one of the most meta-changing cards from this mini-set in Wild. With Dragoncaster, you can get a massive tempo swing of stats on board on turn 6, and while that is also when Snowfall Guardian comes online, Living Dragonbreath exists too. Then slap in Battleground Battlemaster and there you go. Rest is filler.
  • Paladin - Some OK tools for Aggro Paladin. Stormwind Avenger has the most potential, as she's sticky and scales with buffs on her, so she may help you push damage.
  • Priest - A tutor, Duskbreaker 2.0 and a new minion for Big/Quest/Reno Priest. Not bad, but we'll see if they can bring alternatives to Priest in Wild.
  • Rogue - Trash. MAYBE Tooth of Nefarian in fringe burn decks, since it can target face.
  • Shaman - They can already halt any board-based aggression with current cards at their disposal, but perhaps Bracing Cold in Big Shaman and Don't Stand in the Fire! in QL Shaman.
  • Warlock - Another class that won't benefit from new cards, maybe aside from Renolock and sometimes Evenlock with Impfestation as a control tool.
  • Warrior - Shoulder Check should be interesting, maybe even in PIrate Warrior for some oomph or better trading?
  • Neutral - Raid Boss Onyxia is too slow, but makes Amulet's pool better thanks to her having Rush. Kazakusan is also in a weird spot in Wild, but it's a dazzling card to play and experiment with in Reno decks and DMH Warrior. Rest is irrelevant.
