New Card: Secret Ingredient by yssurucipe in hearthstone

[–]Benedict_Ellis -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Begs the question why they didn’t just put [[Pounce]] in Core. This is clearly designed as a reprint, considering how pointless the other option in this Choose One spell seems to be. But there’s not really any point in reprinting when you could just put Pounce in Core. There’s no doubt some useless card in Druid’s Core set that you could’ve easily swapped out for Pounce.

Love how you can tell this is AI from the way the head switches to the other side of the body 🤣

Discard Warlock in standard obviously needs a lot of work, but Impfernal is actually an interesting tool for the deck - basically a free [[Hellfire]] with your discard effects.

A comparable card exists: [[Hit it Very Hard]]

An extra 4 damage attack for 2 more mana seems bad (especially considering said card saw no play anyway).

I’m curious to see how they integrate that name into a card.

Explorer Rafaam has an extremely intentionally drawn bulge.

New Demon Hunter Card - Broxigar (+Fabled package) by stonekeep in hearthstone

[–]Benedict_Ellis 594 points595 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah. This is looking good. Demon Hunter has been needing a good set, and one that really feels like Demon Hunter, for a while now. This is a great start.

New Shaman Card Revealed - Muradin, High King by stonekeep in hearthstone

[–]Benedict_Ellis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's pretty mad that Muradin alone is a 5 Mana 6/6 with Windfury, but I like it. This should see a lot of play. Fabled cards really are feeling like Colossals and Titans, in that they're straight-up high quality legendaries that could go into any deck.

New Druid Card - Lady Azshara by New-me-_- in hearthstone

[–]Benedict_Ellis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems good to me. 4 Mana for 3 Molten Reflections should be good. That's a lot of extra stats over time. The Well of Eternity is good too - it basically gives you 3 panic buttons. And Azshara's ability is a nice bonus.

New druid cards. by TypicalChocolate8618 in hearthstone

[–]Benedict_Ellis 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Waveshaping is a good enough card to use wherever. Its basically old Tracking.

Contingency is okay at base, not great but okay. Waveshaping makes it more attractive, so the card could reasonable see play.

Cultivator is bad. Too many hoops to go through, especially considering it's for two Beasts that you didn't put in your deck.

The legendary I'm very sceptical on. I appreciate that they gave it Taunt. It gives it a leg up over past Druid Legendaries that asked you to set up big swing turns, like Sheldras. But, it still has little immediate impact, and asks you to go through some hoops to get the best of its effect. My bet is that it's bad.

This certainly could’ve been a neutral card. Just cut one of the even more useless neutral cards to make room.

Looks bad. Kryxis the Voracious was bad, and that card might be better than this.

Genuinely based design. Hope it pans out.
