  • A fun legendary to put into your secret Pally, for sure. After I got to know that they can be silenced though, I got quite disappointed.

    Also, the only secret you can reliably expect to stay around for more than one turn is the new one that gives you a taunty horse.

    Overall, interesting, but somewhat weak and vunerable.

  • Fun fact, in WoW this character is bald: https://www.wowhead.com/npc=3454/cannoneer-smythe

  • Finally secret paladin might be playable again!

  • The text doesn't make it really clear if it changes in your hand too or not, i assume not 

  • I can't wait to see secret pally back

  • This needs a lot of support, and as a one-of, it probably won't see much play. Unless there's a lot of secret support, then this is just a win-mire card. Either way, meh.

  • At least the effect is really unusual and cool

  • The 2nd rise of Secret Pally?

     

  • Mysterious Challenger, is that you?

    Joking aside, I definitely don't think this will be as strong as our mysterious friend, but it might be a fun to try out secret paladin for a bit again.  I'm most curious to see what other potential interactions there will be, such as if you can silence the soldiers to prevent it from returning as a secret, or if you can play a secret while the same secret is currently a soldier (I would assume yes, but you know what they say about assuming).

  • I dont think this is a very good card. Maybe it'll work in some slow decks but playing secrets just to hide them seems counter intuitive. 

  • So if your opponent steal one of the soldiers and it dies on the opponents turn, do they get the secret?

  • The effect is really awesome.  5 mana for a 4/4 body that could fill your board with 3/3s that even if your opponent does something like Flamestrike, now they have secrets to deal with again.  I see this being fun, and a good addition to paladin, but not necessary better than Dude Paladin builds. 

    Friendly

  • Avenge + Cannonmaster Smythe = I predict tempo/secret paladin will be at least tier 2.

  • I'll be optimistic and say this seems alright, especially with improved secrets pool
