Big Demon DH is inferior to Big DH using Masked Reveler or even Vanndar Stormpike to get colossal minions and Stoneborn General out.
If Demons had Fel synergy, small minion synergy (with, y'know, the infuse mechanic they just introduced and/or with the terrible weenie DH concept they shoved into core), Deathrattle synergy (the anti-thematic mechanic they hoisted onto DH in the most anti-thematically way possible via Beasts and Quillboars instead of Demons), or even had Demons work with Nagas somehow from the earlier set, maybe these Answers to the Question No One Asked would be useful for something.
I left Relics out because those have nothing to do with anything thematically and mechanically, Team 5 seemed extremely concerned with them being overly-strong despite the facts on the ground, so any Relic synergy (much like giving Jace more effective Fel spells) is something they'd avoid doing.
Also, Brutal Annihilan will also be lackluster in Arena, as if it hadn't taken enough hits.
This is just going to be one of the random high roll cards that your opponent (and you) randomly summons and ruins your day with.
This is awesome but i think Big DH needs some form of way to cheat out the big boys. every other Big archetype has a handful except DH who has some mana discount at best. Something along the lines of Summoning Ritual from Duels would be very fun i think.
Raging Felscreamer and Sigil of Reckoning are currently in standard
Neither are any good with the cards DH have been given; both are slower than Big Rogue and Big Priest and waaaaaaay less reliable than Druid (and less big and less safe). This new card has no place in an archetype that already has no real support.
Classic Big Demon DH support. Shows up at the end of the year and does nothing to actually help the archetype.
Absolute king.
Big cards are fun but they are normally weak. It is fun to play big minons but other than Sire Dire it is hard to find a good one.
It bothers me that the keywords are in the wrong order.
Hippogryph, Amani War Bear, Fizzy Elemental
UPD: the reveal source is japanese, so maybe the order is alphabetized based on localization?

Consistency is key ^^
Ruststeed Raider does the same thing; you know the difference between them and the three mentioned above? Taunt and Rush are on one line. It's fairly consistent with how Blizzard operates, see: High Priestess Jeklik, Winged Guardian, Obsidian Statue, Taelan Fordring, Khartut Defender. The Taunt comes first.
Now, you can argue "what about Al'Akir the Windlord or Zilliax? Taunt doesn't come first on them!" and I would say "Those are less about the order, and more about fitting all the keywords neatly in the text box."
TL;DR: If anything, the aforementioned Rush+Taunt cards are the ones with their keywords in "the wrong order".
Fair enough, thank you for proving me wrong and providing examples!
