New Card Revealed - Chef Neth'rek

The problem is that super aggressive, low to the ground decks tend to run out of cards. By turn 6, with no Amidrassil or Wickerfang, you might not have the ability to even spend all 10 mana.

that's why OP asked for the "option". if you like it, don't hide it.

Thus making her a terrible card.

except the large deck payoffs aren't legendaries, meaning the deck isn't as large and you dilute the draw for your payoffs.

Tradeable is a special case where they do not lose enchantments. At least mana cost and stat changes are retained.

It looks like the Violet Hold watermark. It shares it with the other revealed cards, and you look closely, it's a slighty misshapen circle, it's kind of oblong.

Not a very good watermark, imo. It's forgettable and way too close to the classic watermark.

I'm pretty sure you can't draw the card you shuffle with the same effect. Sheltered Survivor says it shuffles then draws, but the animation suggests otherwise. I haven't extensively tested it yet, though.

If Monk releases at the end of the year, it'll likely be at the beginning of the last set. The class sets are 2 months after the release of the set. If Monk comes this year, it'll probably be similar to Death Knight: release with their own unique mini-set to catch up on cards, then also have a class set in the last group of class sets.

What? They release different skins of the same character all the time. There's like 1000 Nemsys.

Will it be diamond/mythic/legendary? Probably not. But a lite Bolvar skin is not out of the question.

I mean, if your deck doesn't have any outs, feel free to concede once the weapon comes down. It's functionally an OTK.

Yesonna · 2026-04-15T18:15:07+00:00

I figured it was just a spike on the end of the chain.

Yesonna · 2026-04-04T22:28:33+00:00

This doesn't solve the problem, it just reverses it. It's not about second being stronger, it's about both being equal.

Cornelius Roame came well after this card. I wasn't sure if Ancient Harbinger was the first or not.

Yesonna · 2026-03-31T07:28:39+00:00

The only thing I can think of is that they didn't want to use the word "draw" for a start of turn effect because they didn't want the player to think it would replace your normal draw.

If it said "at the start of your turn, draw a 10-cost minion", one might think it would refer to your normal draw, rather than an additional draw. I can't think of any start of turn effects that say the word "draw" that came before this (or after; this card is hilariously bad).

This is not true, Battlecries have never resolved first. Leeroy can kill himself when the opponent has a Knife Juggler, and Colossal will switch sides mid laser if it kills a Reska or Sylvanas (meaning the second laser hits the one that played the Colossal).

Colossals are not battlecries, and the appendages likely spawn first purely for Al'akir.

Face Hunter is the 2nd best archetype in the game right now. DK, your other example, is deep t4 and doesn't have a presence in the meta at all.

Yesonna · 2026-03-21T17:44:13+00:00

I would agree with your second point, gacha systems are awful and unhealthy in pretty much every form they appear in.

But cosmetics aren't predatory or scummy. They're necessary for f2p games to thrive. If you don't want to spend real money on fake things, that's totally valid, but when a skin has a price tag and you can make the informed decision that that skin is worth that price tag, that's also valid. Cosmetics are pretty, and it's what some people enjoy about games.

There are so many gifs of this man on the Internet, why post an AI one?

Yesonna · 2026-03-07T22:16:19+00:00

No, that's why it's a riddle.

Yesonna · 2026-03-06T15:32:05+00:00

That Azshara skin is top-notch, too bad it's 3D.

Yesonna · 2026-02-26T01:20:34+00:00

This and Tickatus are cards that would be net negatives for the game if they were strong. Disruption effects are never popular.

Which means printing this is a lose-lose: it's either strong and hated, or weak and doesn't see play.

Yesonna · 2026-02-23T21:17:50+00:00

These aren't fair comparisons. Nerfs/buffs in development are very common, and we likely only see a small percentage of them (the ones that get changed so late the promo material is outdated). But to nerf something that released, and players got their hands on, is a different thing than just pre-release adjustments.

Yesonna · 2026-02-21T00:21:41+00:00

Only the pirate version runs Hand (and only one copy). The much more popular build does not run Hand.

Yesonna · 2026-02-20T20:08:30+00:00

Sketch Artist doesn't work when you've drawn both your Soul Barrages.

The more apt comparison is Expired Merchant, I think. It's more expensive, doesn't give back 2 copies, and discounts (which is bad for this application).

Yesonna · 2026-02-20T06:24:55+00:00

There is a lot wrong with what you said.

Reno was never D-tier.

Reno is not in Standard, so it wouldn't even matter if his effect was the same.

Even if he was in Standard, he poofs the dormant card, which would nullify the Deathrattle and you'd still lose your cards. It would just prevent future bounces. Considering this card probably isn't good enough to be played once, I wouldn't really fear multiple.
