Audiopocalypse card reveals are officially underway. At the moment, we are currently unaware if there will be any type of pattern to the way the cards are revealed or if it will just be entirely random. We will update this article as the day goes by, so check back when new cards are announced.
Don't forget to talk about the new cards in the comments and if you want to talk about them individually, we've got threads in our Card Discussion forum for every one.
The forms of Remixed Musician are as follows:
Elite Tauren Champion's damage is applied via an uncastable card.

Team5 may be overdoing it with the draw options this time round, and the fear is that it'll get worse, progress the meta unhealthily, or promote more polarization. Because we can see what these cards essentially are; aggro options, so it makes sense to imagine control getting equally as insane options of their own.
Elite Tauren Champion might get nerfed, or everyone would just be playing finley. Not because its overpowered but because this card is just tailor made to punish anything that doesn't play curving minions. Wouldn't be surprising if taking that 8 damage immediately is considered the best decision for certain decks. The only mitigating circumstance is that the player of this card would most likely be at a disadvantage, having practically played a 5 mana do nothing on board, so its almost unplayable against aggro or midrange.
Also, since "Tradeable" became an evergreen keyword, it looks like devs are willing to speed up the game across all classes by cycling/drawing cards as much as they can. I mean, only Tradeable cards being printed was fair for the time being but alongside Magatha, Bane of Music, that looks scary. I wonder if anyone feels the same as me.
Tradeable is fine, and team5 have been pretty selective adding this keyword into certain cards. For the most part, it ends up pasted on tech cards, and not all tech cards are playable.
Besides, you cant really build a deck with too many tradeable cards in it, because it doesn't really draw per say, more like replace. In other words, you'll likely end up drawing a dead card at a later turn anyway.
And it also reads "it explodes", implying that once its used up, it's gone.
The "each turn" is just there so that the damage continues to stack up until it explodes.
I'm disappointed that Elite Tauren Champion is not a Warrior fire spell like I predicted it would be. Pretty neat card, though.
Does Elite Tauren Champion need the "or more" bonus damage? Now we have to learn how it scales up...plus I think a repeatable Ragnaros to the face is plenty enough punishment as it is *shrugs*
Edit: To be fair to myself, the Pick wasn't there when I made the comment.
It appears to be a one time effect. Judging by the way the Molten Pick is written, as soon as a player ends their turn with mana remaining, it disappears from their hand and they take the damage.
