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.
To be fair doubling of a minion's baselines stats can be quite good. Draw a Mor'shan Elite with this card, it could be 2 8/8 taunts for little mana. The only downside would be that taunt warrior is worse than enrage warrior in standard and warrior remains dumpster tier for the rest of the year.
I'm sorry but this a 2 star legendary at best. And with warrior being in the dumpster tier since Sunken City, this looks even worse. I doubt there will ever be a meta where you would want to cast the last spell your opponent played. It's like a worse Vanessa VanCleef
In Standard atm there not really that many arcane spells to abuse this legendary so atm it's just the Arcane Bolt OTK and with the infamous Theotar still prevalent, that combo might not see play. It's still a decent affect and can be utilized in the future when new sets come out.
Guess we knew we'd get a spell school specific Sorcerer's Apprentice at some point. Ofc will be a key combo piece in the Arcane Bolt OTK that's already been figured out. Might see play elsewhere though in big spell mage to cast Arcane Defenders
Its not bad. Ofc there will be a new arcane mage archetype and this minion will slot right in there coz it's still decent value. Probably won't see much play if the whole Arcane Bolt OTK doesn't work out.
So exactly as I feared, the Frost rune reigns supreme as the Frost team won the event. Ofc this was only against the other 2 runes but this clearly means that if you want to be competitive while playing DK, you are forced to buy the Path of Arthas set (As it has all the 3x Frost Rune cards), making the game more expensive.
It was a tactical move by Blizzard to get more money out of us 😥
We'd have to evaluate the whole concoction package by itself coz this minion won't see play outside of it. The conception of the concoctions is cool and you'll basically be getting an extra mana if you think about it coz this minion costs 2. The concoction package may see play mainly due to this card, giving the archetype more tempo.
This is a nice draw spell for Big Shaman but we kinda missing a lot of big minions for big shaman to be big again in Standard. If Big Shaman were a thing again at some point, maybe we'll also see more of Criminal Lineup?
The bottom line here is: we need more big stuff for this spell to have a good payoff.
Druid has Underking and other armor gain resources so this taunt will cost 0 most times. Lots of taunt and defensive options in this expansion so I highly doubt aggro will survive at all.
The most ultimate super sticky minion! Glad this wasn't printed for DK coz that'd be 3 corpses in 1 card. Should find a nice place in a token undead druid and maybe even some shenanigans with Drakkari Embalmer
There's a small chance that Roll the Bones makes it's way back into Standard via the core set.
Team 5 really want deathrattle rogue to work and I'm all for it. The mana discount for this rat increases with the more deathrattle minions you add to your deck. Wonder if Bonelord Frostwhisper would be good here...
This is also a deathrattle so maybe can fit into deathrattle priest as well. And also lets remind ppl that Animate Dead exists if you really want to be greedy.
Well, ofc this is a must kill minion due to the free Death Strike at the end of each turn. I'm glad this minion cost 8 mana coz it's definitely more aggro orientated but could also help you stabilized if you're almost dead. Might see play in a control warlock of some sorted, doubt it'll see play in Curse Implock though.
My understanding will be the Vision of Darkness will keep returning to your hand after played. That could be great value but we'd also need to know the effect and mana cost but I have a sneaky suspicion it'll be a Shadow Visions type spell.

Not a bad undead and could see play in an aggro undead druid? Maybe? Will probably be better in arena though.

If it does then that would probably mean playing any hero card would cancel your death timer and I doubt Blizzard would let that fly but who knows!

This is extremely versatile and can go into a variety of decks. Love the artwork too, need to get one of these golden.
Hmmm.... I swear I've already commented on this card... but ok.
Ah yes I'm not going crazy 😅 https://outof.cards/forums/hearthstone/card-discussion/24327-new-druid-minion-lingering-zombie
This is a great refill card for token druid. Also makes Wither and Elder Nadox more viable but even adding this to a nature beast aggro druid is good

More support for thief priest, that's fair.
