That would actually be a GREAT idea! I main wild and could use those rares. For people who don´t care about the format, a wild-only rare is at worst the same as a dupe.
Well, I faced a sitiation with Renohunter in wil this morning, where I was playing a mage with 2 secrets up and 3 HP. I had a weapon and my hero power, so I could kill him if I got Flare, but the fucker gave me the new 5/4 that destroys ONE secret and two damage spells I didn´t need.
I didn´t have any cards in hand I could have played to reduce the amount of mana and ensure Flare. Good thing the guy destroyed the right secret (Ice Block) and I got a win, but not thanks to Zephyrs. I think in that situation, he could have offered the two secret-destroying options (for the player to know if he wanted to play around counterspell or not) and any 3rd card.
There´s some support to treants, but not that much. This is too high variance of a card, depending on how early you draw this legendary (after T7 or 7 mana)
If you draw a card that costs 7 or more, its a free 5 armor and hero power improvement, even without any invoking. I think the rogue gallakrond will be the most consistent gallakrond deck in the first days.
I am most excited for a dragon priest in Wild,with the mana reducing guy, which implies having Gallakrond in the deck. The battlecry will be at least one more priest board clear.
The battlecry has too high of a variance, especially in wild where you can get two 5 attack chargers. Anyway, as always, Zoo will be a thing in standard at least for the first few days, so if I open this guy, I´ll play it.
Yep, I think Kripp has some good content, at least in his Youtube, I´ve only watched a couple of live streams during large pack oppenings and expansion releases.
I wish Kibler were revealing the dragons expansion, but it will still take a while for the Honk Kong wound to heal between him and Blizz. I am 100% behind what he wrote and the way he did it, but I still think its a loss for us, the community.
Anyways, as a mostly wild player, end-of-year expansions always hype me more, due to the blatant powercreep. That and the fact that they are pushing dragon trybe synergy (and some singleton), which have more options in Wild.
The only deck this is great against in Wild is kingsbane. Against all others, other decks can´t use weapons as efficiently as the opponent and you´d rather it is destroyed cheaply (Ooze) or get some other thing in exchange (armor for Ooze3 and cards for Jones). Since the recent nerfs to Kingsbane rogue, I don´t think we will see this pirate guy anytime soon.
This may see play in Dragon Reno (Dreno? DR. Eno?), as an anty-aggro tool. It competes with spirit lash, that does less damage, but has the heal and costs one mana less. Maybe there´s room for both, if the meta is aggro enough.
It MAY survive play on curve, but I am not sure. As for late game combos, there are better things to build your deck around, such as big spell mage with the dragon lady that summons 5/5s. It remains to be seen if there will be more support for small mage this expansion.
I think Reno dragon priest might be a thing in wild, with the new discount guy to allow more bronken combos. This is a very nice value tool for that deck.
In standard, she will be a staple in every deck that wants to wish for better cards.

Let´s see if his smarts keep improving with time.
I think they were trying to avoid some exploits that caused a little too many overflows. Last time we got a similar braw, kripp did that to stormwind:

I know you can still go infinite on shudders, jades and all kinds of shenanigans, but this may be too easy and too disruptive on the server´s side.
I´m not sold on the ZOOant deck yet, but I may be wrong.
I am not sold on the "ZOOant" deck yet, but I may be wrong.
I don´t think it will play as kaleseth, due to mana increase. But its a high varience card, depending if it is on your oppening hand.
The only use for this is a gadgetzan auctioneer turn, but even that is too much of a streach

The rushing guys will provide a very nice board control.
I don´t think there´s enough support for a gallakrond tempo deck in warrior.
If you draw a card that costs 7 or more, its a free 5 armor and hero power improvement, even without any invoking. I think the rogue gallakrond will be the most consistent gallakrond deck in the first days.

Yep, this looks just like a Battlegrounds card for me. It has zero constructed viability and will see play in arena for its vanilla stats.

It helps with the whole sidequest thing, but I don´t think this "rush" package will make it in hunter.
