I could swear the card art for Scrapsmith featured an orc instead of a dwarf during the reveal stream. The scrappy grunt token cards shown on the website are also orcs.
This could finally make token DH a thing. I'm curious how your hero attacks affect the summoned demons, I'm guessing their attack scales with the number of times you attacked?
Freeze is a strong mechanic and should not be underestimated. I don't think we had neutral cards that can freeze more than one target before. Many classes already have deathrattle support cards so this can be copied, revived or triggered multiple times to freeze even more times than mage can. This could very well be a sleeper card of the set.
Lifesteal DH was a dumb and broken thing before this expansion, now they add a questline designed to reduce the cost of your combo cards (I don't see any other viable reasons to play the quest), only to be forced to nerf the combo pieces by increasing their cost so your cost reduction sets them at their pre-nerf cost. This would only limit the use of these cards to a specific deck and make them unplayable outside of combo. What a joke.
Darkglare and Stealer of souls are very problematic and I'm not sure how to handle them without making them irrelevant.
I'm more concerned about the mentioned solitaire style of play where a majority of questline decks just race to complete their conditions without much interactions, not even wanting to play minions so your opponent cannot play spells on them. It gets old very quickly and there is little to none disruption in standard to help you somewhat counter those strategies.
Of course, you utter 'for the alliance' like a gentleman.
If this ever becomes meta, you can counter it with the same card. Cool effect!
This has to have a way of being abused in wild

Also, there is the Felfire Deadeye + Expendable Performers dream with the upgraded hero power.
Edit: ok wow three people already beat me to it lol
Oh hell yes!

What Jumbo Imp should have been.
I'm down for freeze deathrattle rogue
Zilliax on steroids
Edit: I totally spaced out on the fact this doesn't have lifesteal
I wouldn't be surprised if Crystallizer was banned from wild

You don't include this in your deck, but you can discover it with Primordial Studies and then trade it for something else in your deck.
What do you think of Northshire Farmer? It might be too slow for this list.
Paladin got a better Spirit Lash? I'm shocked
Thanks! Now I'm only curious about the rogue Gizmos and the warrior Juggernaut rewards :D
EDIT: I love you
hello Elwynn Boar
LOVE IT
Where can we see the rest of the cards that are generated from questlines?
Does trading count as drawing?
