That 9 mana 2/4 says hi IMO

I dunno, if spell hunter is a thing, this card seems totally fine. It’s obv a huge IF. But animal companion is a very good card, getting 2 for 2x doesn’t seem terrible to me.

To be clear, I’m not suggesting this card will see any play, or is even good - just that it doesn’t deserve the reddit meme freak out it’s currently getting.

This set seems like it has a lot of really strong cards. Probably the strongest set of the year imo.

I watched an interview with mike donais about a year ago and he said when they make new cards they put almost zero consideration into this 'card nerf' type impact.

Void Ripper is a very very good card, competitively statted, non RNG, allows for set up and activation. Well done Blizzard.

Twilight Acolyte is a truly nuts card. Voljin got sent to HoF, so they re-print it as a rare? As a card it's pretty amazing. Acolyte + Cabal is super OP when you consider cards like Tirion.

Dragon Priest gonna crush this expansion by the look of it.

I wonder how much dust I'd need for a half-decent list.

Acolyte + Potion of Madness/SW:P/Book Wyrm/Cabal all look like solid combos.

Priest might end up with 3 tier 1 archetypes this expansion.

Holy **** just won the most fulfilling game of HS in ages with my DK Handlock against a weird Buffadin/Marin deck.

Got ahead on board a bit before he dropped Marin, was comfortably ahead by the time he cashed the chest and got the goblet thing that fills your hand with one card.

He drew eight goddamn Tirions. I had to kill five of them (one twice) to skank a win by using my 1x Hellfire to deal the 2 face damage I needed when he had lethal on board next turn.

yeeeeeeah

how the hell are you supposed to make a deck with no minions. Play a bunch of secrets for early game, but dont include any of the secret synergizers like cloaked huntress or putricide....ya ok. =\

Some cool cards in the Day9 and Brode final reveal. Though watching Day9 gives me AIDS.

lol this expansion has solidified my belief that the dev team has no idea how this game really works. why try to start a doomed archetype like spell hunter for a class that needs major help with just a few easy adjustments. just reeks of "we have no idea what we're doing."
