    I skimmed a lot of the article so sorry if I missed it, but is there a list somewhere with ALL the new quests listed out?!  Mostly I'm just curious as to if there will be a Challenge a Friend quest in the new system that has equivalent rewards to the current 80 gold quest.

    Dean Ayala’s favorite Wild deck is Odd Paladin!  I have no proof of this claim, but... c’mon!

    I see!  Read that wrong.  Carry on.  :)

    First, Bomb spells cost 5 mana, and Corrupted Blood costs 1.  And the way I read this, they become random spells that would normally cost 3 or more.  But they maintain the cost of what you transformed.  So one example, you could turn a Corrupted Blood into a 1 mana Pyroblast.

    Maybe I'm reading your comment wrong but it seems like you thought those spells cost 8 and 4, and would transform into spells of equal cost.  But again, not how I read it.


    Never mind, I misread.

    Um... WHAT?!?!

    First thought, why is it Odd cost?  Second thought, making it Even cost might have been more powerful as I believe Even Paladin is more control based, or used to be.

    Either way, making Dudes stickier is usually a pretty strong tool for Paladins if your strategy is to flood the board, or to buff it.

    I think I did too, but not day one.  It was for a specific deck I wanted to try and I had the dust.

    Is there a crafting regret forum?!  Maybe there should be.

    The real shame is that I crafted Tak on day 1 assuming he'd be good... *sigh*

    This could bring Playmaker into the meta.

    First thing I thought as I've been playing a lot more Wild lately, "Hello, Pogos!"

    I know it'll be inconsistent, but still... very fun shenanigans indeed!

    Well it’s a Mage card that synergizes with secrets so the 3 mana secret into this is a likely curve.  And the lower cost makes it more likely to get an early big tempo play from this than the Substitute

    Feel like this is what Hidden Wisdom should have been...

    The thing I'm surprised about is that they are adding Pure Pally support now when the other Pure cards will rotate out before this.  So unless there are more Pure cards planned this minion might be the only Pure card in standard for all next Hearthstone year.

    Looking forward to trying this out in an Even Paladin build.

    In that case this card is pretty sick!  It'd be a late game play, but paired with Wrathscale Naga it could be better than when paired with Juggler, and only one more mana!

    I pray for the Face of whatever Mage or Shaman devolves their Demon Hunter opponents’ minion into this!  Especially if they can then play Expendable Performers, or whatever!  That “fill the board with Illidari, if they die this turn do it again” card.

    I fully expect Mark to play a combo deck around getting Cable Rat into a Faceless lackey to summon this 2 drop playing DH for the memes (and the Vengeance!)

    I don’t see prize ticket.  And ride ticket is already crossed off for a card featuring a game or ride.

     

    EDIT: Oh I see it now.  Yeah, should count!  If not, set call back for shuffling three cast when drawn minion spells like Faldorei Strider also fits.

    Right.  I was also thinking in Wild you could do something like play this on a friendly Ragnaros.  The silenced 8/8 could then attack as normal and the 4/4 copy gets the Rag shot off.

    Just like when the Ancient One was printed.  But... he was brand new!
