Tempo DH will be absolutely out of control with this one. And don’t forget the Hunter applications! Easy five stars, this is obscene.
Guys, this is a hunter card too.
DH identity: breaking game mechanics. 🙂
Yeah, I play DH. The class’ identity? Getting away with everything.
Welp. Tempo / Big Demon Demon Hunter is back again. 5 Stars.
Will get nerfed. 5 stars
OH MY LORD, WHY BLIZZARD? This card is so insanely strong, especially for DH. It’s so powerful to drop on turn 3 and have your early aggro threats clear the opposition and get a stranglehold on the board. This is nuts.
It’s also insane to play later with a rush minion.
Or with a weapon, which both DH and H have plenty of.
WHY
A better version of Deathspeaker. Yes plz.
Will hate this card, aggro DH was a pain in the neck all the expansion till 5th wave of nerfs!
Don’t worry the class will get nerfed like 3-5 more times this expansion
I think this might not be as good as people expect (4.8/5 Stars). In Arena: Yes but in Standart…meh.
Demon Hunter would love this with Warglavies, but they got nerfed. Otherwise, Demon Hunter usually trades with face and doesnt mind taking damage since you either win before you die or run out of gas anyway. Also, the statline is terrible for an Aggro Deck. Frozen Shadoweaver is MUCH better. 2/5 Stars.
For Hunter, this might be a little bit better. I think this might see play in Highlander Hunter along the Rush Package (Diving Gryphon, Faceless Corruptor, ectr.). To me this looks similar to Houndmaster Shaw (Witchwood, 4 Mana 3/6, Your other minions have Rush) who was played in Highlander. In the end, due to lack of draw in Hunter, this might be cut for something more impactful. 3/5 Stars.
But the fact that this card effectively protects ALL your minions from taking any damage at all is still quite insane, and should not be underestimated.
Demon hunters can trade their normally squishy Satyr Overseers and Felwings into big taunt bodies with no worries of weakening their board. And next turn if your opponent plays another big taunt body, you literally just repeat.
If your opponent doesn’t have a rush minion or an instant removal spell to take care of Kreen, your opponent can literally run through their entire deck full of big taunts and still not be able to remove your board.
It sure has snowball potential! But I think most classes can do more than Taunts in the early game. Warrior has Risky Skipper, Rogue has Blackjack Stunner, Priest/Mage/Warlock have removal, Hunter has Rush, ectr.
But if Kreen snowballs, it is really huge! Similar to Ras Frostwhisper. I just dont see that happen often enough to use Kreen in the majority of decks.
I like the shoutout to Hunter Ace. The best player in HS deserves a 5 star card.
It’s Deathspeaker on steroids. Deathspeaker was an OG arena card and saw some experimentation in Constructed. If the meta has a lot of minion combat he could be a lynchpin card.
What a disgusting card… Crazy powerful, I wouldn’t be surprised if this gets nerfed to 4 mana at some point, it’s a bit too strong on curve if you’re playing against another aggro or midrange deck cause the amount of board control this card offers is astounding.
This is actually a rather needed card for early aggro DH since it allows you to knock off say a big taunt without losing minions. It also combos really well with the one weapon since you could make several attacks with face and not take dmg.
If this gets nerfed it’ll either be cost stats or only your minions.
Good, especially if meta is Aggressive (it mostly do..).
Yeah, because odd Demon Hunter is not strong enough
Warglaives and warblades keeps the deck alive, the deck already lost a huge point of power. This will probably lead to a tempo/token wild DH instead.
This is a dual class card, demon hunter and hunter.
Interesting card but I don’t think this will see much play.
Just demon hunter
Ah, my bad, I thought the description only read demon hunter at first
Wow your imagination is not working properly or are you joking? The hero and all minions won’t die this turn… How can this not be a 5 Star card? Nerf incoming if not all cards in this expansion are op! 🙂
ok sorry, while attacking is making it not too op, so minions can die. But still 5 Stars!
Something overpowered like this has never been in Hearthstone…preventing minion deaths…
*looks at Commanding Shout and Beastial Wrath*
Honestly: What might sound strong doesnt have to be all that great. You need to be ahead in order to get value out of this and when you are ahead as Demon Hunter and Hunter, you dont need a defensive card. Paladin had Time Out! and it wasnt played. Despite it being in the perfect class for this effect. This is only really useful to protect your Rush minions and, outside of Highlander Hunter, this can never be good enough to make it into a deck.
Yeah, just like comnandig shout… exept this is also a body that helps to develop your board, the effect continues until this card is dealt with, can completely neglect all damage to your face and minions the turn it gets deployed, and has pretty good health for a 3 drop, making thus difficult to deal with since in most cases your other minions or face will clear the board the turn it comes down, or necessitates resources from the opponent’s hand, which will consume their mana, leaving them unable to deal with other minions or develop the board.
In short yup, a worse commanding shout, doesn’t draw a card.
