Go go control rogue. It could shuffle them at the bottom of your enemies deck but for 3 mana... not terrible. Then you make it to turn 9 and play your Anub'arak and get all sorts of Nerubian procs!

that card has sick potential value. 3 of them too. definitely a card for the RNG-favored.

So of the new legendaries released today I'd want/craft the Shaman one and... possibly Dreadscale (Hunter baby legendary). Problem with Shaman one is that I should probably craft Al'Akir first. Funny enough I have the other two hunter legendaries from vanilla and GvG so I'm all set for control hunter!

I hope Dragon still doesn't become a thing because I'd have to get the rest of BRM just for two or three fucking cards.

If this card were a 2/3 instead, I could see a deck that revolves around discarding cards. With that stat line it just sucks.

Trades with shredder, RIP aggro meta?

Interesting. It would obviously be strongest in mill Rogue, but it goes against their gameplan. On the other hand, 3 mana for 3 4/4s may be good enough to slow down the time until the enemy is fatigued.

Very little RNG involved when a mill rogue plays this. They will almost always get these things out if they don't get run overy.

I think the 24th was datamined somewhere.

Not really, that's the placeholder date for the preorder cards to be unlocked within the client - problem is even after setting your computer's date to that they don't unlock.

It could end up being the 24th, but there's no guarantee.

The children's card game experts crying about power creep for two shitty cards is hilarious. There's at least half a dozen threads on the forum.

They aren't wrong though. It's bad business for a virtual product that doesn't even have a standard/legacy style restriction between card sets.

Legendary ranking that children's card game expert Phage will agree with I'm sure:

Great: Varian, Mistcaller

Good: Darkbane/Lightbane

Good but conditional: Aviana, Trueheart, Anub'arak, Rhonin, Dreadscale

Mediocre: Eadric, Saraad, Paletress

Poor: Gormok, Icehowl, Acidmaw, Fizzlebang, Chillmaw

Unplayable: Skeleton Knight, Bolf Ramshield, Kragg.

Normally health >> than attack, unless in charge minions, but I would still say this card is better than goldshire:

Thoughts?

Avianna is unplayable garbage. You kids are delusional.

Anyways, tournament attendee is boring as fuck, as I explained earlier. There's nothing to say really. There's no real point in playing the card because it's so unimpactful. Aggro decks will use a stickier minion, or something that is guarenteed to deal damage (leper gnome / usually worgen), and control decks will just use Zombie Chow.

Fearsome Doomguard buff to Bane of Doom... but Dreadsteed.
I think they're adding underwhelming common high cost cards to give noobs a way to play big cards. ATM most big cards are also legendary, so noobs can't play them.
