    I mean if you want deathrattle DH to work this sort of powerful consistency boost is what you need. That said if the deathrattle idea is a flop then so is this.

    I like the idea a lot. That said I'm not sure it will be competitive but I still think its an interesting direction to send rogue in. If this does see play though I worry it will just be the same way that other weapons have been seen in Rogue. Just as ways to hit face.

    Hard to assess this spell. Since DH is losing the 1 mana silence that cycles itself this might see use if silence is really important. A lot of the time I think the 3 mana rush minion that silences is usually going to be better due to its utility though.

    This guy seems really strong. It sort of depends though. Is lightening bloom going to be a nature spell? What spells will be? If this has the right collection of spells in the nature category then I can see this almost being broken.

    Seems neat. In wild of course this is strong. In standard....not sure what to think of this as much. There are some decent high durability weapons but most of them have been used to hit face. So if that trend continues then this won't be amazing.

    I mean it might be fine. At worst it is a minion with solid stats and in a 1 drop that might be enough. It has some small chance of being more than that but usually you will have to trigger this frenzy because the enemy has no reason to do it for you.

    Not likely to be played for its beast tag but might be played as what is almost a strictly better Vulpera Scoundrel. I suppose it isn't impossible for this to be good in hunter but so long as they lack late game removal control hunter is a dream.

    Seems a little too gimmicky. I feel like this is the sort of card they print when they don't want to support the classes current archetype too much. They try to push a weird new game plan that usually doesn't work.

    Not super excited about this. It isn't awful or anything, its playable, but I don't think it will ever be a card that gets into a deck unless its like the 30th card just as a mediocre 5 drop to fill in a curve that can sometimes be more than that.

    Not very exciting, but its not awful. That said I think this is too weak unless there is a taunt you really want multiple copies of. I suppose if you can get this effect consistently though then its sort of like Hand of Adal in a way.

    I mean it might see use as a solid stat murloc that just does some powerful stuff when it needs to, but that is about it. Its an okay card in a deck if that deck is already strong.

    I mean its sorta insane having what can in many cases be a full board freeze for 0 mana in the late game. The other two forms are less insane but they are still fine in a pinch if you just need to keep the enemy off your ass. On top of that this has synergy with the Mage Legendary from Scholomance Academy and any other effects that are spell burst or spell cast dependant.

    Its hard to assess this card in any way until we've seen what it coming. We are going to need to see some solid beasts for this to see use, and they will usually need to have rush. For now we don't really have any that fit the bill on that front.

    Not much needs to be said here. Its an insanely good card because its frost nova when mage has lost frost nova. Will it be played everywhere? No. Will it be played? Yes.

    I mean its fine. It won't be broken it won't be bad really. I think if you run a beast in your deck that is decently impactful then you will consider this an option. Otherwise you won't I feel. Not a ton left to say.

    I mean I appreciate that they seem to be rather aggressively pushing the theme for hunter, that said these sort of decks either need to be hitting face a lot with spells or needs to have some full on board clears to further support a control game plan. I very much doubt we will be getting the latter and for now at least we have limited options for powerful cheap face damage. So with what we've seen I'm not all that convinced.

    Seems very strong with bounce effects. It could help rogue do even more damage to face, and control the board in the rare moments that it needs to control the board.

    Not a ton to say here. If a murloc deck comes about then we could use this as a strong finisher. If they don't release another strong aoe the late game will be a tough thing for Shaman to pull off so in that case I can see Shaman going for something more aggro and maybe murlocs will be the key way for them to achieve that.

    Its cute, and it might even be decent sometimes...but unless you get like....warlock and pretty much nothing else I don't see why you'd want this that much.

    Seems pretty good. Its sorta like mini shadowflame but it will always do 2 damage rather than being based on the power of the unit.
