    Seems strong to me, the soul fragment cards seem good enough as well so control DH new meta?

    3 mana Duskbreaker?

     

    Edit: on second thought... THIS CARD IS INSANE.

    just being Volcanic Potion is good enough warlock got a TON of control tools this expansion it's currently slightly weaker since the galakround decline but it might be enough to give it new life.

    You definetly can't play alexstraza and zephyrs with those cards though.

    2 mana deal 3 are always playable specially if they come with healing attached, Nether Breath is obviously better when you have a dragon but you don't always have a dragon and more removal.. is great.

    The fragments are really good in warlock, more healling? that's great, they got both synergy and anti synergy with the warlock quest: each fragment is double card draw BUT if you draw a fragment with the reward hero power it ruins the discount.

    Anyway of course this card is AUTO INCLUDE in any fragment warlock deck and it's probably just auto include in every slower warlock (and maybe DH as well) deck that isn't restricted by big demons or something.

    Both classes highly appreciate the healing provided by the fragments

    The Last Kaleidosaur quest requirement for 0 cost card, but it doesn't take a space in hand or makes a card that can be just removed.. yeah basically that but it doesn't suck as much, also you run 2 of him.

    at base cost he is SunwalkerIt's not a that is comsidered playable in standard I will try to calculate/speculate how much a Sunwalker needs to cost to see play:

    Second-Rate Bruiser didn't see a lot of play even in a Patches the Pirate meta, it was almost playable and it was quite close I assume if he always costed 3 he would always see play.. and he didn't come with divine shield..

    the vanilla test (4/5 + effect) says it should cost 4 to see any play, so at 3 cost it's not a "Fair" card anymore so I assume that once you've casted 3 spells on friendly minions this is just great.

    out of the vaccum.. a buff priest is pushed and libram paladin is tier 2/1 currently so it fits there, will need to see if there are more buffs being printed.

    It's a fast card in treant/token druid which can also be slow.. it's better without the quest since sometimes you don't need the rush it's a really nice card.

    It's a strong card but which deck would like to actually play it? Priest? maybe revive it 100000 times (but then you can't really play stolen minions)

    Control mage? maybe..  the opponent cards are 100% good since they choose to put them in their deck (well above a certain rank at least..)

    hmmm if I get it I will test it but it's probably a card which is meta dependant.

    tempo mage doesn't really have good 1 drops.. seems to be the archtype pushed this expansion.. after the death of Mana Wyrm (should be buffed.. :( ) this card actually is pretty good and will probably be the flagship card for tempo mage for the next 1.5 years..

    5/5 easily.

    Better greenskin except it doesn't have the pirate tag.. so if you don't care about that pirate tag it's that.. also goes well with all the new expansion dual class cards so far.

    It's more conditional than Greenskin. If the enemys (likely in Priest or Mage) has no board on T5, then you won't get your weapon buffed. This card can be better than Greenskin, but it's unlikely and most of the time it is like Greenskin with the upside that he has rush.

    Oh yeah.. that's a thing too but 90% of the time people play something on turn 5

    Very skeptical about it. It's not a turn 1 play (unless you run Wisp) and it's a pretty bad topdeck.

    There also isn't a hunter deck that really requires this at the moment (Midrange Hunter is a pipe dream at this point, you can't really rely on the 1 2 3 4 5 curve into Highmane anymore)

     

    There is some interesting synergy with Arcane Fletcher (in case people forgot about that card) because it's a spell that gives you a 1-drop, meaning it kind of cycles itself.

    by top deck you mean when your hand is empty? cause most 1 cost cards are bad when top decked so it's not a factor, this is actually better than most 1 cost cards late game at least you get more flexible mana placement and maybe a better trade..

    there are 2 other druid/hunter cards we didn't see yet so maybe this have a lot of synergy

    1 mana for 2/2 stats 1/1 being fast and also gives you a little curve filler.. Adorable.. Seems like firefly but can't be played on turn 1.

    1/1 ds is just 1 mana (Argent squire) give a minion ds is also 1 mana (hand of protection) those 2 combined might be good enough for this to work.. But you probably want something relevant to copy (like an infiltrator or the 2 mana spell dude.

    Idk what Turalyon suppose to do in the lore, but yes this is kinda slow. Or maybe we will see card like Duel! which utilize minion to attack, but probably no.

    Yeah I guess it's a push for that archetype togheter with nozdormu, been trying to push that archetype for a while now..

    Quote From Grumpy000

    If I understand well the effect is BEFORE the attack. So, when played, it kills a minion and leaves a 3/9 body in the field. Not so bad after all ...

    Otherwise it would be extremely lame.

    Seems bad to me, damn too slow and also competes with Tirion Fordring as a late game minion (which is just better) and single card removal? at 8? seline is already quite mediocre itself dunno at least not all legendaries are good which is.. great since you need to craft less of them.

    hoping for good dual class paladin legendaries then..

    This card can totally lock you out of a game.. Just like despicable dreadlord locked out odd paladin.. You get some spells damage and you could basically win against aggro.

    The problem is not - how are we gonna meet the condition and get the sweet heal. The problem is - are we gonna have a free slot to include this one? I think if not now, then by the time next rotation hits this will find a place in some deck for sure. 

    Why not? Seems like a strong card.. Maybe make a new deck..

    Secret Passage is probably average in quality. There may be some ways to build your deck around it, and getting five cards for 1 mana is nuts, but you also have to be able to play those cards, so it's only going to fit in a particular (probably aggressive/tempoy) deck.

    Which is what rogue does 90% of the time anyway.

    This card is gonna be nuts you can run now much cheaper rogue deck and run 2 of this like you used to run myra's there's no leeroy now at least..

    People calling this card bad- people have been playing Dragonqueen Alexstrasza for the same cost for unknown results, this card has known results (deck building) there are currently 2 demons with taunt that are great to play with this card (Enhanced Dreadlord and Aranasi Broodmother) I doubt we will see 0 good big demons that are bad to summon with this card this expansion.

    Although I am warlock main I hope they are at least a bit weaker than Voidlord but around that level of impact so you can get rewarded fro playing big demons again it's fun as long as it's not obnoxiously early and it's a reward for controlling the game for so long or it's the stabilizer card.
