Awesome! The empower keyword looks really cool! Coming up with thematic and unique keywords is tough. I am currently also making a custom death knight class and it is really fun to compare different takes on the same characters and abilities!
Other than ramp shenanigans this comes down turn 6 at it’s earliest, which makes it a lot less problematic than other giants. Not sure how strong this is, good in spell decks that want to go to the late game? Maybe druid but I doubt it’s good enough for any other class.
Great stuff! Tyrande and Malfurion might be my favorite warcraft couple :) I would also love to see some queer representation among major warcraft characters some day.
I’m not so sure about mechanics from earlier expansions returning, I figured they did that in darkmoon because it was the only mini set that year. Barrens and Stormwind already had their mini sets, I don’t think we are getting mechanics from those expansions. I’m happy to be wrong tho, either way we don’t have to wait much longer to know for sure!
I don’t know how to feel about these changes. Battle Totem could certainly be problematic when combined with damage cards (looking at you Mordresh!) but was such a fun treasure otherwise. Totem of the Dead only happened because of Death Games and Deathstrider, just ban it for Slate and let me play deathrattle rogue or priest. Disks was strong before but only felt like a problem because of Vanndar, I don’t like this change. Nerf Vanndar instead.
As for other treasures, I personally hate playing against Flame Waves and even more so Unstable Magic. It’s really not fun to just build a awesome board only for the opponent to cast a bunch of spells and turn my board into a hoard of sheep.
A passive I would like to see buffed is Elixir of Vigor, I don’t understand why they changed it when it got moved to pool 2 it felt fine with 1 costs. It was already really slow, could we at least get a middle ground and make the copies cost 2?
I feel like it can do well with many different pool 2 passives but as with any dragon deck Dragon Affinity is huge, there are some ok options in pool 1 otherwise but not nearly as strong. It was a casual run if that matters.
It feels like the meta is way more diverse at the moment, hope it stays that way (I fear mage will take over in time tho).
While I’ve been mostly farming the hero powers and treasures for the new heroes, I also decided to take a break from that and try dragon priest in the new patch. It went really well, went 12-2! While I didn’t get the new treasure, I got to try a sick combo of Dragon Affinity and Bronze Signet, getting a bunch of cheap dragons!

Great to see these back! Hoping for an exciting new meta with the new expansion and coming update, whatever that ends up being!
Maybe N’zoth will appear in fish form in some way? The N’zoth fish was in the expansion teaser but never appeared in sunken city.
Very good ratings overall! There are a couple cards I don’t see working well tho, namely Spitelash Siren and Whirlpool.
Th strongest cards not highlighted here imo: Click-Clocker, Security Automaton, Vicious Slitherspear, Amalgam of the Deep, Seafloor Savior and Mecha-Shark. (yes I think mechs will be very strong)
Really looking forward to the release to see how wrong I am xD
Yeah thats what I thought, seemed like a weird name :)
Is that the official name?

Well last time around I just got robbed 1 pack, never received it. Sure hope I get them this time.
It feels like you can play Drek’thar in so many ways. Having draw + cost reduction on your hero power is so good, and opens the way for so many decks!

Either way..
Happy Valentine's Day!

Oops that's some solo adventure thing so I have no idea. I was talking about the passive that discounts all your dragons by 2.
Sure! Here's the list I used:

Yes, this is great news!
Ahh, that makes sense! I didn’t really consider the timline of card creation.Thanks for answering!
Maybe I’m a dummy, but why are the files named based on gender and race? Why not just the card or hero names?
Galvangar in the top 10? Very surprising to me!
There will be a new duels season also right? So you can do the same thing with heroic duels?
