They don't seem to be collectible. Do they count for the total?

Naralex is pretty pretty good for the value game. It's a do nothing turn 3 so the downside can be fairly big against more aggressive decks but the upside of being relevant the whole game is nice. It's not a card a control deck would be sad to fit in a later turn at all.

Probably pretty good with rogue too, can get a bunch of value from bounces.

Also im super happy that keywords aren't being limited to single expansions!

Dormant is one keyword that I'd be happy with them leaving behind, but I get why it fits too well flavor-wise to not use here.

all cards released

https://playhearthstone.com/en-us/news/23676206/prepare-yourself-adventurer-the-wailing-caverns-mini-set-is-here

great cards from first look:





lots of trash imo, and i don't think warrior got what it needed, unless the turtle spike has an effect (it might?). the handbuff card is just awful i think?

man that shaman card is good.

Well, there's the extremely situational Priest spell to hit their discover pool.

e: this has some potential, though maybe only in wild right now. Interesting combo potential with the new Paladin shield but probably not worth using.

Neutral weapon tutor is pretty interesting.

New Paladin secret is top-tier jerkery.

Rogue gets even more draw, and it tutors.

it looks like all previously weekly heroes are permanently in shop, as well as 96 monthly card backs.

Hunter got nothing of value. The frenzy: summon 4 hyenas is the only thing close to playable.
Deathrattle DH got couple good options between Felrattler and the Ooze. The new sigil is ok value but doesn't fit into their decks right now.
Mage got trash trying to make freeze decks a thing, it won't work and I'll stop playing standard if it does.
New Paladin secret is pretty good, I think its definitely gonna take a spot.
Priest got their discover pool nerfed and a couple of new draws to compensate.
Rogue gets support for a stealth deck that doesn't run stealth minions? I don't get it.
Shaman gets good cards that don't fix their fundamental problems but might pull them out of bottom tier.
Warlock gets to hit themselves really hard.
Nice aggro Warrior stuff, and a good frenzy card to hopefully make a Saurfang package good.

Give a beast poison, bout fuckin' time. And for 0 mana?! Dreadscale lookin crazy in wild. Acidmaw found dead.

Poison weapon too. Finally they're leaning into a strong vanilla mechanic like poison as a hunter specialty.

Chernabog posted:

No, but 2/5 neutrals and 2 class cards involve them for what seems too niche to be useful. At least one of the classes is paladin.

Definition of orange:

Any of a group of colors that are between red and yellow in hue. Middle English, from Anglo-French, from Old Occitan, from Arabic, from Persian, from Sanskrit.

Definition of lex:

Law. Latin.
Priest’s toys are pretty mediocre. The 1/2 feels like the latest iteration of “on-paper good, in-practice lovely” 1-drops for the class. Against All Pdds has some cheeky combo potential with the 1-cost spell that sets attack to 1, but I’m still a bit skeptical that it makes the cut with the current deck shells.

God Wild Painlock is going to get even more oppressive, right

I want to know how that card works with plot twist as well, that could enable some new, exciting mechathun bullshit

The warlock demon is the most interesting to me, paying hp instead of mana can set up really disgusting tempo swings but 4 mana 2/6 is…..not great

Serpentbloom is stronger than people think (it’s pretty disgusting with the kolkar guy) but I’m skeptical of the other two cards

With Darkglare you usually try to drop Giants on 4 or set up for a t5 Loatheb + Giants, not sure if this guy fits.

Serpentbloom is nearly as good as the old 0 mana Hunter's Mark, with some bonus, though unlikely, synergies (i.e. cleave and Augmented Porcupine). Whether 0 mana Hunter's Mark would be good enough for today's standards is another story.

First draft of new Pirate warrior:

I'm cooking up some other decks too, also something i just thought: the new Shaman spell + Magtheridon is a 5 mana Deathwing that overloads instead of discarding. Very unreliable, but still.

E: Here's kind of a weird Big Spell Paladin deck I'm trying to turn into something playable. It's using Scorpids, Naralax, and Wandmakers to hopefully get a cheap spell to activate High Abbess Alura.
