  • Too slow for Face Hunter, too weak for Deathrattle Hunter. Looks like dusting material unless there is a way to stack a lot of hero powers. It doesn't even seem decent for Arena.

    • I agree, I think this is one of those cards, where you just discuss the art - which is good fun!

  • It seems too slow to work for Facehunter - you have to draw this and wait 3 turns for it to activate. 

  • I feel like this is too slow for a burn deck to work, then again, nechromechanic exists so maybe I'll be wrong.

  • More support for face hunter, seems decent

  • I can imagine this can be really strong, as well as it can be absolute trash. Meta will decide whether hyperaggro prevail (and I have strong hunch it will).

  • Definitely don't have high hopes for this card.  Unlike the Mage sidequest, this one must be completed the course of 3 turns minimum and does not have nearly as big of a payoff imo.  A potential 6 face damage could be spooky if you've already hero powered 3 times, but the damage from the quest is slow and might not even go off.

  • I feel like this one may be a bit underrated by the community. It´s really hard to evaluate this till we see the whole set and the meta shaping. Maybe it´s gonna be terrific, maybe not.... but love this one for the flavor and the new mechanic :) 

  • In a world where you would have to first draw this card, play it, then wait three turns and lose 2 mana each turn. Yeah, no.

    Its too slow, and the rewards not too good.

  • Very aggressive, face hunter for the win!

  • i just don't see this being good. you do not want to use your heropower early so it does nothing for the board. in the lategame it is just not powerful enough and with hunters generally having bad card draw this does not look appealing

  • Could work in an extremely face-based hunter with [Hearthstone Card (Feign Death/card].

    ) Not Found]

  • Man this card just reads "Deal 6 damage to your opponent. reward: deal 6 more damage"

     

  • Feign Death

  • ah yes, the classic hunter gets shitty epics thing

  • Wild might see some play with some old deathrattle cards but overall...just 1/5

  • i hope hero power hunter wont flop like mage in rasthakhan

  • Do we know what the sidequest animation/UI is going to be like?

    And will they work just like quests (you can have multiple different ones, but not duplicates)?

  • Dragonblight synergy with the sidequest is interesting, but we'll see how viable this is. Seems fine even standalone; hunter loves to go face

  • Pro

    This card gets A+ for flavor! Firing Leper Gnomes at your opponent? Yes please! How good is it? Probably playable. Need to see more cards to get a feel for how well this new hero power based hunter will fare.
