I won't be surprised, if Hot Air Balloon will be in Battlegrounds.
A few good cards here. I could see the hunter one pairing really well with unleash the hounds.
Oh I see the themes are Dragons and Mechs
Kronx is an insta-craft.
Kronx Dragonhoof - Reno decks have Kazakus (and Zephrys the Great), C'Thun decks have Twin Emperor Vek'lor and Galakrond decks have this bad boy: this is how good Kronx Dragonhoof is. If you're playing Tempo/Aggro and you want to capitalize your Invokes on curve there you go, 6 into 7; if you want to go Control or you're in the late game then this card allows you remarkable flexibility: board presence, removal, reach or buff. This will be one of the must have cards in the next expansion and, of course, most of Galakrond's success will come from Kronx. Meta Defining 5/5
Veranus - considering Boulderfist Ogre as comparison, it's quite aggressively statted. The synergy with Unleash the Hounds (and Explosive Trap to a minor extent) is pretty obvious. There might even be a neat combo with Dragonmaw Scorcher if a Dragon Galvanizer will be printed, but we don't know yet. The card is not bad, but what does it provide for Hunter? It clearly encourages some for of Control/Midrange deck, but will there be enough support for this effect to be worth including? Let's see ?/5
Camouflaged Dirigible - Neat effect: looks like Team 5 prefers to play with Stealth instead of giving it eternally to new minions (Coppertail Imposter, Spirit of the Dead). 6 mana is a lot for Mech Hunter: if you want to set up lethal you may as well use those crystals to HP your opponent or to play other mechs. I think this cards will be nice if generated from random effects, but it seems too expensive to be included in an actual list. Someone highlighted the stupid synergy with Sniplock, but let's say we leave Wild alone crying in a corner while we tend our own wounds, am I right? On a side note, I love the art. 2,5/5
Hot Air Balloon - Nice 1 drop, will grow if left by itself and therefore will provide more than one value trade. It's a mech, so Glow-Tron is a good followup and it is a worthy target for Micro Mummy's buffs. It has synergy with Magic Carpet, but I guess we can say it about any 1 drop that looks at least decent. Will see play and, how knows, maybe we'll grow up hating it. Interesting Battlegrounds 1 star card by the way. 3/5
Edit: I just ended writing my comment and I started scrolling down to read what the other users had to say about these reveals. I find it funny that another guy took C'Thun as a comparison. Well played my friend!
I had to chuckle :D Fixed it for you :D
Oh shoot: I guess I typed too fast and I clicked on the wrong box.
Thanks for the quick fix sinti ;)
Chad, my dude, you seem like a cool guy, but that hairdo isn't doing you any favours
Oh thank god I thought I was the only one who hated his hair.
he just makes me think of that "when your custom character is in a cutscene" meme
Kronx is amazing for Galakrond decks (obviously). But his success depends on how Galakrond performs. Meta defining if any Galakrond succeeds, trash if all Galakronds fail. It's extremely likely that at least one Galakrond becomes viable so this will be a very important card most likely. Even if the worst case scenario happens, i think this is still a good craft. It's a lot more flexible than Twin Emperor Vek'lor for C'Thun.
Nah dude, it’s one of the reasons, galakron decks will be good in the first place. This card is allmost zephrys level of good.
wouldn't overestimate it. Having to wait to use it until after you've played Galakrond, meaning the soonest you'll get it out is at turn 8 and that would usually mean playing Galakrond at a weaker state.
Zephrys can be played at any stage and gives you incredible reach or recovery.
This on the other hand is much easier to play around (except when you're against Rogue where they can just Galakrond into this and fuck your day up)
Sure, nothing matches Zephrys. But drawing Galakron with this is still good - very good! So the only Moment, this is a useless card is when you have galakron in your hand. And at this Stage, you simply play galakron anyways
Huh... I thought Alexstrasza was gonna be the Hunter-Legendary.
But that other one seems pretty good! Board clear with Unleash the Hounds or rush Minions
Red dragons aren't hunter-like tho. And Alexstrazsa (and her flight) should be neutral since she brings life and hope to everyone LOL.
nah, thankfully they went with Primordial Drakes,, which is a much cooler theme. Looks to be a neutral, and we'll see her in the next few days if I interpret the reveal images correctly.
Maybe she's the opposite of Kronx where she'll interact with the Hero-specific Sidequests....or she'll just be a really strong independent card
I hope it's some good Dragon-Synergy stuff.
Anyways, im hyped for Dragon-Hunter! Crafting Emeriss back in Witchwood will finally pay off :)
I mean the corrosive breath that was revealed before implied Hunter wouldn’t be getting Alex
I was thinking that Hunter would get Alex because of the other Good-Guy-Classes getting the other Aspects (Deathwing being the exaption of course).
But, yeah you're right about corosive
