    A good 3 drop for arena. Right now i do not see any mechanics to make this card playable on ladder. But Blizzard might have some plans to support this card somehow in this or next expansion so let's see.

    Hah, such a fun card to play) I love it. One more interesting tech card we got this expansion. Does it steal an active weapon from an opponent right? So we can steal Kingsbane from rigue for example? I very like the possibility to make this kind of plays.

    A very good removal card! Volcanic potion was strong previously and this one is even stronger. Priest got a decent early removal against aggro and I'm sure this card will see a lot of play.

    We have no strong pirates right now to make this card worth to include in a deck. So i'm a bit surprised. But in wild Ancharrr can fit really well in a pirate warrior. I guess, we will get some strong pirates in this or next expansion.

    It might fit in zoo and will be strong in arena IMO. SO that's all i guess =) It can't be played in a deck where you have any important cards to lose. Looks like we got a fun filler card)

    So we got 4 damage and draw for 3 mana which is not bad. I personally don't like the card by itself, but can't argue it's srong enough to be played. Hunter gets an option to draw a rush minion directly that you could only do with Countess Ashmore previosly or with a Town Crier if you a warrior. Diving Gryphon gives some support to the new hunter sidequest. And It may be played in a highlander deck as a removal and a way to draw something strong like Zilliax.

    An interesting card to try out =) It gives dragon decks one more way to be strong in late game. On turn 9 we can potentially set up a board with 3 dragons for 9 mana. So the question is how fast will be the new meta and would we be able to survive until we can play this card?

    A one more strong card! Even without the effect its a 2-5 body for 3 mana which is good. Will work like a taunt vs aggro because no one will want to leve this thing on board. Not sure how strong it is without Thaurissan and Flamewaker but i guess Chenvaala will take it's place in some fast cyclone/tempo mage. And this card will become a real threat in Wild, giving a new option for a tempo mage.

    A very strong card for Galakrond warriors. 3-2 with rush for 3 mana is... playable. Three 3-2 bodies with rush - is already a monster card. But if it's getting buffed by Galakrond's battlecry Scion of Ruin will make a strong board by itself. One of the strongest card of the expansion IMO.

    A very good one! A 2-3 body for 2 - is always ok. The battlecry makes this card a very nice and flexible for any dragon deck. Nothing special but it's good. It's definitely will be played a lot IMO.

    Congratulations hero! You got a classical filler for the expansion. Right now i don't see any chanses to see this on ladder. Historically eggs were only played in zoo and aggro decks, but this one is so expensive so there is now way it fits in those archetypes. The 1st 1 star card for me =)

    I like the idea to resurrect the handlock with Valdris Felgorge and Abyssal Summoner. This card will be a part of hand warlock for sure but we don't know if there will be handlock by itself on ladder.

    One more card with an interesting mechanics. Looks strong overall, but it's hard to evaluate the power level right now. I guess Blizz is trying to give us a new handlock with Valdris Felgorge and Abyssal Summoner. It feels like we are getting a very nice expansion this time =)

    I just love this card! There are so many ways you can use it in Wild and Standard. It's a very strong tech card, which will not be played in very fast rogue deck with cheap minions IMO but i might be wrong. One of the favourite cards from the expansion right now! I hope we'll see it on ladder.

    So glad there's something to counter N'zoth Rogue!

    I guess N'Zoth will get out of Standard before the new expansion =) But it might help in Wil

    I like the card! Played early it can force an opponent to somehow hit your face with hero power or spells to prevent a 3-6 taunt, which is good. But if you are already behind on board and have no taunts it might be impossible to complete this quest so it doesn't give you any comeback mechanics. But helps to make early pressure and snowball very hard, or ir can be a defensive option if played very early.

    It's definitely a good card agains any resurrection mechanics, so the question here is will we see many resurrection decks on ladder? It's a very situational tech card, which can only be played in a specific meta IMO. Zul'Drak Ritualist may be good agains aggro if there is a way to kill atleast 1 or better 2 of summoned 1 drops.

    A good removal, but i don't know if hunter needs this kind of card. I never knew how people make use of Cobra Shot, so i feel the same about this card even though Corrosive Breath is stronger if you have some dragons. If you need to clear the board to win - do it, if you need to hit face - so hit the face,  but when i see this mix i'm at a loss =)

    Dragonbane has good stats for the price and the effect is very strong. I don't know if Blizzard is going to give us some more cards to support this "hero power" hunter, but even If they are not - Dragonbane can fit in almost any hunter archetype. And it's going to be even more dangerous in wild.

    The new Yzera is too slow to be effective IMO. But if druid will be able to survive against aggro then we might see Yzera in a Dragon druid or some kind of ramp/big druid decks. So lets see
