I'm officially hyped. There's some awesome-looking Priest cards in there, lots of interesting design, and Kazakus may well be the best use of design space for a digital card game I've ever seen. Release date hasn't been revealed yet, right?

[Shradow]

I love the mechanic of cards being able to be played by multiple classes.

ohoho this is looking great.....

 

Shaman, Rogue, and Druid in same faction? i'm officially sided with Jade Lotus

[Shradow]

Currently up to 1780 gold, hoping to get to at least 3000 before the expansion hits. How's the gold hoarding going for everyone else?

[Dokutah]

and now im slightly regretting spending gold for some random WTOG packs.... but for now its clocking at 1390

 

that reddit link...is it the card leak thread? my local browser unable to open it for certain ridiculous-national-security-related issue (if you asking its indonesian). so i get my leak from here:

[Shradow]

2.7k gold, gonna try and go for 3.5-4k by next month, all dependent on if the arena gods are favoring me.

Also got 8k dust and a dupe golden ysera on standby.

 

I've been around for every single hs expansion to date and so far this one seems to be the most promising one.

 

I was watching the reveal live with my girlfriend and I literally squealed like a jabroni when they showed off the tri-class concept. Genuinely did not see blizzard taking such a massive leap and introducing something that potentially game changing, it also shows a bit of growth and hopefully more comfortably on the devs part. The only downside being that there are only 9 funking cards. Thing is, everyone and their mom is jabroniing that 9 cards for a new mechanic is way too low, and although I get why they needed to do it this way for balance reasons I still find myself agreeing with the kids jabroniing. They essentially introduced this mechanic in the best possible way I feel, with a genuinely cool theme and back-story yet it only makes up for 7% of the actual set. 

 

Overall though I'm just glad they're even introducing tri-class cards and if my only complaint about something is that I wish there was more of it, then clearly they're doing something right.

I think this is my favorite card revealed so far. 7 mana 6/6 with Taunt on its own isn't that bad, and with the Battlecry this card looks really solid. I love the art for it, too. Awesome Paladin card.

Doppel looks pretty neato. That could potentially be huge with some Grimy Goons buffs. ODK if it's gonna be good per se, but it'll be fun.

[Shradow]

I wonder what the other two factions' card theme are gonna be. I like the Goons' buffing cards in the hand, so hopefully the other two are cool as well.

[Brinolovania]

Just going by Kazacus, I bet the Kabal has something to do with spells. My first guess for Jade Lotus would be stealth, but I'm not sure what Blizz would do with that.

If the face plays taunt, me still go face.

[Dokutah]

so its basically Piercing...oops wrong term, i mean...reverse Ram Bolfshield?

[Miror B]

so its basically Piercing...oops wrong term, i mean...reverse Ram Bolfshield?

It actually hits both, so it's better than a revers Bolf. (Reverse Bolf implying that the hero takes the damage INSTEAD of the minion)

[Shradow]

 

Not as flashy as Kazakus, but damn if that's not a powerful-looking card. Imagine getting its effect on something like Dopplegangster, or using it with Brann. Even without a super synergistic interaction, 10/11 worth of stats for 7 is pretty darn good.

[Shradow]

Wow Warlock got a damn good card.

 

 

It's Hellfire with a 6/6 body that's a Demon for 3 mana, hot damn. And for the sake of Arena, it's a Common!

[Dokutah]

i mean nobody mention it:

 

[Shradow]

Kod mindin Kazakus. Pruzah!

 

[use this after Kazakus, the value!]

[Shradow]

RENO SHADOW PRIEST HERE I COME.

 

 

Use Kabal Courier to get a Coldarra Drake and you've just won the game if you have Shadowform active, or maybe have Finley turn your hero power into something like Mage's or Hunter's. Infinite Armor would be hilarious, too.
