Interesting brawl today, got a golden Hungry Crab form it 
Btw do you guys know if a nerf hits a card then Blizz always gives a full dust refund? Cause I'm hoping for a Force of Nature nerf which would give me 1600 dust from my golden one  Also might get 400 dust form BGH cause I've got two (his nerf is quite possible) ;P

Since they haven't announced that they will deviate from this policy I guess everyone is assuming a full refund will take place. There will be a ****storm if they don't for sure lol. That 3 free packs is just awesome at the release of Standard ^^
BGH is very high on the list of cards to be nerfed for sure. I don't mind FoN the way it is but for your sake I hope it gets nerfed for that sweet 1600 dust
Edit: I just read hints about the upcoming nerfs. Some Basic Rogue cards will get nerfs (I'd speculate Preparation and Blade Flurry). Ancient of Lore and Keeper of Grove are being looked at. Silence overall is getting nerfed. Big Game Hunter and Giants also. Leper Gnome will be apparently nerfed.
Interesting stuff, but if Knife Juggler stays the same I will weep. And for the love of god Divine Favor has to go

How to win as KT:
1. Play only your OP minions (so basically play any minion that isn't a token generator)
2. Play spells
3. Hero power
How to win as Raffaam
1. Queue up against a complete potato who plays spiders on turn 2
2. Get lucky in getting both pieces of staff before turn 5
3. Congrats you have 10% change to win now
That being said the new creatures make this cool just like in Rag vs Nef.

Agree on KT win. I just played a legendary and ressed him when he died.
With Rafaam I kept the board clear and kept building the staff and then mass summoning legendaries!
I loved it.. KT was the most fun to win as though. Feels more fun to throw the bosses out on the board

Oh, hello there!
Not sure if insanely OP or another Varian... problem is, that he brings back Deathrattle mionions, os even with a boardclear various effects will be triggered (like Sylvanas takeover, or Cairnes "respawn").
Also, nice piece of lore, whispers of this squid had a really huge impact on Azeroth as it seems...

This will be insane in Wild. You know what was weakness of Varian? Lightbomb, Brawl etc. You know what is immune to this? Board full of Deathrattle minions! I will be only playing Standard I think, it will be so imbalanced in Wild. I can't stand Piloted Shredder etc anyways so I won't be playing Wild nevertheless.
In Standard this might be another Varian though. Cool and strong in a way but not "competetive". We will see )

I'm sorry, but wtf is this? Why bother with making unique classes if you design a card like this? I don't like it, but guess I'll have to find out if this is a "fun" card only or sth bigger... (plus, I know which Epic I will be getting the most of in my packs, sigh...)
PS: That N'Zoth makes me wanna craft Cairne I always wanted Cairne

Cairne will be making a comeback anyways, because the 2 cards that pushed Cairne out of the meta by being too good against it were Sludge Belcher and Loatheb, which are both now gone.
That is assuming the meta won't be aggro heavy though, let's hope they honestly don't make it that way!

Deathrattle decks are easily among my favorite and deathrattle Rogue may be the deck I am most looking forward to. Although I suppose Priest would also work. Either way I adore Sylvanas and have always wanted a good reason to use Cairn.

Damn I would craft Cairne if not for those damn new Legendaries from WoG. That N'Zoth might be a good choice, his a neutral and seems quite fun. And knowing me if I craft one Old God I will want to craft the other three (at least not four, cause we're getting C'Thun for free). Nevertheless, gotta save dust for them Let's hope I'll get Cairne from a Tavern Brawl pack...
And I'm looking forward to try a Deathrattle Priest for one, cause I find this class a bit boring nowadays with almost all his decks based on the same mechanics...
@Raenus:
Yeah, Raptor/Deathrattle Rouge is still one of my favs, and the deck always suffered in late game (well every Rouge deck suffers in late game actually). Anub'arak somewhat filled the hole, but N'Zoth my also fit here nicely.

That's how it always was...
Hmm, they've revealed another Legendary 'The Boogeymonster', but it's such a joke, that I don't even wanna bring it up here (or maybe there's a mistake in it's abilities translation?). Nice job Blizzard giving us such a cr@p card after N'Zoth...
PS: Only a month and Secret Paladin will be blown into nothingness. Can't wait...
EDIT: Quite a nice way to present a new card.
I don't know about this. For one, I like the design (insectoid hero seems kinda cool). 3/2 for four mana is a bit weak, so it's not about the body. Those 1 mana toxins fit Rouge, cause you know - Miracle, but we already had mechs with spare parts and they did so so. He has a deathrattle so another potentially good card for Raptor Rouge and N'Zoth. And cheaper minions are always easier to fit in a deck. All in all a good design, but he should've gotten at least 4/3 in stats cause his a Legendary and a little bit of powercreep is always in place Btw, Blizzard seems to be really pushing for deathrattle in this expansion...
Dat revealed Warrior weapon on the other hand (pun intended), what a joke...

Clever.
I am actually a little worried about the amount of Deathrattle minions they are adding. I don't want Raptor N'zoth Rogue to become the new secret Pally.

The problem is that for each creative or interesting card they release, they reveal s*it that they themselves probably don't even know how to use. True, previously cr@p cards can get a second life with an addition of some new cards or deck types, but let's face it, there are some cards which simply won't be played, ever. I myself have some of those cards (like Icehowl for instance). I tried to use them here and there, but ultimately, after a few uses, they just sit there in my collection. And most of those are cards which the community correctly deemed unplayable from the start (there are only a few exceptions). It's not nice if a cards only distinctive feature is 'I just hope I don't get it in a pack...' like with my third 'Enter the Coliseum' which I got yesterday (and yes, I tried to make it work)...
You see (probably) from the start Hearthstone was a game about optimization. In the first couple of the games lifecycle you could win with any deck. Now some cards/decks won't be played simply because they will be outvalued. Why try this and that if card X/deck X does it better? That's why netdecking has become so dreadful. Sure, you can play for fun not for gain, but nobody likes to loose every match, and ultimately each of my "for fun" decks will be discarded, cause they won't keep up with the meta (only my Dragon Paladin seems to hold up)... maybe Wild will change things, but I doubt it.
I bet the first Legedary from WoG I'll get from a pack (not counting C'Thun of course) will be Skeleton Knight The Boogeymonster.
PS: To give some optimism to my little rant, one guy on a forum said "If all epic/legendary cards were awesome then only players who invest hundreds of dollars in the game would be able to play this game", so there's that

The warrior card is really lame, had it been 4 mana maybe? Just thinking.. But you are right for every good card there is a bad card. Intentional? no I just think they are making a lot of cards and some of them are cool in concept but not in real life..
Have you seen the new rouge Klaxxi card? I love that one, might need 1 more health, but it is damn cool imo. :=

Thinking about it they have to include snowy cards.
If they were to introduce 134 new, useful cards that would be all that people use. I can see no way that they could create that many cards and have them all be perfectly balanced and interesting. So in the end you need some chaff to sort through to get the wheat. Also keep in mind that every card will become available to be pulled from the random minion pool, it would dilute the system (flawed as it may be) to make every card good.
Plus it will make opening new card packs interesting, you will always be hoping to receive the cards you want and dreading the boogeyman, and isn't that fitting? Always fear the boogeyman.

@emilsn91
I've talked about it a few posts up. Interesting and full of flavor, but stats could've been a bit better like 4/3 (though Rouge does not care about minion stats, the class is about combos and dmg output not stickyness).
@Raenus
We're not talking about some cards that are better then others. We're talking about cards that are utterly useless. Looking on cards like 'Tentacles for Arms' makes you wonder if Blizzard is really playing their game/reading through forums, cause trying to figure out what is the idea behind some of them leaves you scratching your head. Even with the shifting meta underwhelming stat distribution/mana cost/tempo loss will simply discard a card from the get go...

I see your point. But what if you had it in your raptor deck? 
(I hate these quests.. Three wins with druid and warrior - the two classes that I have the least cards with)
EDIT: New Hunter card out! Infest. best card so far Infest - I love it as a hunter player it has a lot of potential and is really low cost.. If you manage to have a lot of minions on the board this is crazy.
Something else got my Lady Liadrin hero from playing WoW. Nice way to receive a new character.
