    So on an empty board, the 3 damage can at least still go face. While I am intrigued by this spells only DH, I don't think it's gonna be any good coz the payoff it mainly the legendary weapon and you can still technically run the weapon in a normal minion centric deck if you wanted. 

    Basically this spell will only see play in a spells only DH package, even then it may be cut coz the payoff is only 3 damage. Pitiful.

    I really want to make a Lady S'theno OTK viable and this weapon looks quite fun to try that. It may end up being too inconsistent though as you'd need to draw the Bound Soul spells. If that doesn't work then well, it's back to Jace fel shenanigans then and that's boring. 

    Also this spells only DH actually negatively dissuaded you from running Renathal.

    At first I didn't see the poisonous tag and thought this was garbage, but it's instant removal (as long as the minion doesn't have divine shield) with a 2/5 poisonous minion that can be difficult to remove.

    I'd wager this guy would (most times) take out 2 minions before his death, that's pretty good!

    I'm a bit skeptical on this one. It's a collectable Shadow Reflection but stays in your hand. I'm sure there is a combo that would be desperate for this card but rouge has never been my strong suite. This card will either see no play at all or be added to every rogue deck coz it's insane.

    Only noticed now that Risen minions like Risen Footman don't leave corpses behind. That's definitely something I'm gonna forget while playing 😅

    If control shadow priest is a thing, this 1 drop will be right in that deck. Might also see play in the aggro variant but you're contesting with Voidtouched Attendant there. Regardless, I'm keen to dust off my Darkbishop Benedictus again.

    Nice specific card generation and can be combo'd with Brann for extra value and mana cheat. I'm not too sold of the Outcast cards currently in Standard, but this legendary will get better over time when better outcast cards get released.

    Funny how it has the exact same stats as Risky Skipper. Pity it's an epic coz this will be mandatory in the new fire warrior deck. Good for enrage warrior and as a board clear. This minion will most likely be used as a combo with Blazing Power to get those big bois.

    Ok now this spell will make enrage OTK warrior viable. As long as your charge minion got the Sunfire Smithing stat buff, add this spell and a lot of damage can be dealt. It can be +9/+9 if you have a full board of damaged minions but I guess at that point, this spell would be win more. 

    I would think with this spell alone, your opponent can't afford to leave any of your minions alive on the board.

    This is basically Val'anyr in spell form but can't go infinite which is fine. I'd imagine you'd want the buff on a specific minion to finish off the game. Maybe a Mr. Smite or Grommash Hellscream

    TBH, with the number of fire spells Warrior has atm, this legendary doesn't actually need the (Revives 2 times.) text 😏

    It's alright I guess, 12/12 in stats with the only requirement of casting 2 fire spells and in a dedicated fire deck, that should be too difficult. Not sure how good that would be and if it'd really help warrior out. 

    On the flip side, I'll laugh when Rogue and Priest get this legendary but don't have any fire spells to bring it back, so it'll just end up being a permanent dormant minion, taking up a slot of the board 🤣

    Shaman evolving into this would be sweet!

    Would be funny playing this and it discards Soul Barrage for your opponent. Instant concede there. Also, would this minion permanently discard Vision of Darkness? I'd be interested to see that interaction. Aside from that, weird disruption that doesn't really fit anywhere in warrior atm.

    More enrage support it welcome considering that's the only playable archetype in Standard atm and it really needed some draw. Most times this is an Arcane Intellect when your hero is damaged and you have no minions, which isn't bad. It gets better from there so we'll be seeing a lot of this spell if warrior emerges from the dumpster

    I have a sneaky suspicion the BG portraits are not selling as well, hence the limited time sales. Even then I wouldn't buy a specific portrait coz how many times would you end up seeing it in each game anyway?

    As previously mentioned, you could theoretically run Barbaric Sorceress to discount this spell for some shenanigans but not sure if big shaman would go that route or if the deck would work out. Guess you can always add Mailbox Dancer to try guarantee a 0 cost From De Other Side

    I really like the effect, similar to Frostmourne but very expensive. Can be used in conjunction with From De Other Side but still very slow and Shaman doesn't have much stall aside from Snowfall Guardian.

    I really like these cards and effects but I still don't think big shaman would survive in Standard.

    This is definitely the card that will make outcast DH a somewhat playable deck. Although I still feel the archetype would need to be merged with something else like a Jace Darkweaver Fel archetype.

    This is infinite value if left unchecked much like Whirlkick Master and Underbelly Angler and those cards saw a decent amount of play. The current pool of outcast cards in standard though is pretty lackluster but we'll eventually get more and more outcast cards printed and maybe this epic will set play at some point.

    I just really hope that full frost rune decks are not the best DK decks coz I really don't want to buy the Path or Arthas set and be down 20 packs for the expansion :( damn this game is getting expensive.
