I wonder if they are thinking about a nerf to Cabal Shadow Priest? That 2/8 Dragon, that 0/7 Doomsayer that becomes a 7/7 next turn and now this 1/1 are all game breakingly bad when Cabaled.

Don't forget the new Paladin minion which gives DS to 1 h drops, Hobgoblin & Sword of Justice 
@Minion
Cabal will always be irritating, but it can't be played around. Besides I doubt the new Doomsayer will be played that much and I don't think Scaled Nightmare will be played without buffing him the same turn...
HOLY F*CK!
Deathwing -> Deathwing combo!
While the card is good in any Dragon deck I think it shines the most comboed with Classic Deathwing. Plus dat N'Zoth synergy! I know what I'll be crafting...

Damn and I really wanted that N'Zoth + Volazj combo But how can I turn a blind eye to the Dragonlord? I mean even if he will not turn out that good I need to have him just for his bad-assery 
PS: For those of you who wonder, this is the version of Deathwing when Old Gods corrupted him and he used the Dragon Soul to overwhelm other dragons and thus 'Dragonlord'...
PS 2: When you think about it, this marks the first time ever a character is represented two times in Heartshtone. We are getting yet closer to MtG

You mean this expansion, or Deathwing in particular? Because if you meant the latter, need I remind you of Hogger, Mukla or Ragnaros?
Btw, the new card is absolutely badash.

Those are corrupted/alternative versions made for fun (made especially for Hearthstone, they don't exist in the lore), whereas in case of Deathwing we see him in two points of his life. Kinda like with him:
They might even make Neltahrion in the future I think.

The new Deathwing card is just ... how awesome all the old gods should have been
He is hopefully going to be everywhere in the meta. Oh my oh my! N'zoth decks is a thing now..
The new priest card? Meeh..

That is till you realise it can be combo-ed with Prophet Velen for a 8 dmg board clear for 9 mana, a combo that was not possible with Auchenai (7+4=11 mana)...
Also, it's a 2 mana board clear with Circle. Without a damaged Auchenai left on board in the aftermath...
New Deathwing is cool, but with a Priest he will be a nightmare to play (Mind Control comeback?). Also Warriors Execute + Brawl combo will be rage inducing...
EDIT: WotoG card dump incoming on April 21st.

Plus the Mage card is a common. I don't play Arena but this seems to make an OP class even more OP in it...
Seriously sometimes I don't think they care about balance, look on the new Warlock cards, either unplayable all meh...
EDIT: A second Mage minion came out courtesy of Trump. Might be interesting, but stats and randomness might make it rather tricky... hmm I wonder if it suggests Yogg-Saron decks will be Mages by default.

Faceless summoner....same value as piloted shredder without being able to silence it. Sure, a bit more vulnerable to AOE but a flamestrike still leaves a 5/1....
Latest releases have been pretty solid!

This is probably one of the if not the single best card in this entire expansion! The potential is incredible, and it's a Rouge card so combo synergy. Not counting things like Thaurissan, Malygos (!) or Ysera, you can even copy a simple Nerubian Egg (or Anub'Arak ) and it will still be worth it. Stats could've been better, but for 5 mana 4/4 is not that bad. Blizzard has probably made Rouge viable with one single card...
PS: Art is badass too.
PS 2: This whole thing with Khadgar portrait will probably bring more loss then gain for Blizzard...

That shadowcaster is insane. It is pretty game changing.. Lots of potential
The new Khadgar hero is .. Good marketing.. But .. also pretty pointless for the user.

Well Malygos already wins you the game once you play him if he isn't removed immediately. I think same goes for most 9 drops.
But think about 1 mana Edwin or Xaril Or Just with Brann Bronzebeard for some value Eggs for example (in Wild of course). Works awesomely with Shadowstep ^^
I really want this card

But looking from a different perspective, with the game definately going more into fatigue/control and if Blizzard suggests a control Rouge (which could be a thing actually), a 9-drop will probably survive till next turn so Shadowcaster might give you the steam you need - another Ysera = another card or second Malygos if one is not enough to finish dat Armored Warrior with busrt. It might seem too slow now, but Blizzard might really make it work with this whole control heavy meta. Also Anub'Arak
I don't like cards like this. I wanted to craft as much Legendaries as possible, but cards like Shadowcaster bring too much confusion for me I won't get her in a pack probably and I want to try her in my Deathrattle Rouge. What do?

Blob you need to start crafting them epics dude Sometimes an epic is better than a legendary 
New hunter card
Forlorn Stalker
It has potential, and I really wanna make it work, but I am fearing that it is going to be a little unplayable .. But if you play it before a savanna highmane it might be worth it..

Silly question ...
How many times can I play a game against a friend of mine ( from my friends list ) ? I am asking because I have heard that you or both players can be banned if playing too many, is that true ?

@emilsn91
I would play Stalker, if only for the great art it sports. Additionally Deathrattle Hunter might make a comeback, remember Feign Death? And finally more Worgens! I wonder when we will see Genn Greymane
It's not that I don't craft Epics. More even, recently I've only crafted Epics: Brawl or Coldarra Drake for instance. But I always take priority with Legendaries, at least until I have most of the ones I wanted from the start...
For now I'm probably going for N'Zoth and Dragonlord (I have enough dust for two), Volazj comes next, that is if there won't be anymore interesting Legendaries. They might still drop a bomb afterall...
PS: I really hope BGH will be nerfed cause recently I've unpacked another one so that makes three (and 4 or even 5 in total through my entire career with this game ). Thats 800 dust, cause I'll leave one for the collection (I doubt the nerf will be mild, it'll probably destroy the card and it'll be useless ).
@sphere
I didn't hear about that. Where did you get that assumption? Why would Blizzard ban something that can't be exploited (dailies for instance)?

Damn, we'll have to wait the entire weekend for Princess Huhuran reveal cause that meh Priest card won...
She's very sad:
EDIT: Turns out they've revealed her a bit earlier then Monday. And she's very good:
Remember what I said about Feign Deaths comeback? They're really pushing for a Deathrattle Hunter (actually Deathrattle is so all-over-the-place in this expansion that it's not even funny ). Another Legendary that I wouldn't mind to have in my collection. No one knows how Deathrattle Hunter will turn out cause this class is tricky, but she might be worthy of crafting. All those combos seem interesting: Sylvanas, Highmane or the new Twilight Summoner (optimal curve) are perfect targets. Plus Brann might also have something to say here. I will definately keep her on my radar
PS: Oh and she's a Beast to boot...
