I think I’ve only ever seen 1 person play Herald Volazj … this “lite” version might see more play with Crystalline Oracle or Tortollan Shellraiser and Awaken the Makers – but I suspect in too many instances it’ll either be a dead card or a really expensive 2/3 to be really useful.
The Caverns Below
Hmmm, though you’d need to cast the Crystal Core, so…
Turn 7: Preparation > Crystal Core > Defias Ringleader x2
The Caverns Below
Turn 7: Deadly Poison (or any other combo activator), Defias Ringleader x2.
If the Tinyfins somehow survived that’s 6x 5/5 on the board right there with mana enough left to Sap a taunt off the board.

Complaining that something based on Warcraft, the game with purple, massive-pointy-eared, elves, spiky Zeppelins, and gnomish robot-tinkerers looks “childish” … seems legit.

Sort of … the score counts from your last attack (or turn – one of the two) so if it’s at 99 and you hit it for 15 you’ll get 114.
Last time around there was no cap and the AI got stuck if you used Kel’Thuzad + Taunt; I managed to get it to 884 then 🙂

Seems to top out at 100 yup – did a Priest with Kel’thuzad (works around Enter the Colosseum as long as he’s your highest attack minion), a couple of Annoy-o-trons, every silence card at my disposal and a Flying Machine plus Divine Spirit and Inner Fire (32 damage a turn).
Basically try and clog his board with 0/x minions by silencing all the taunts and Party Banners, drop Kel’Thuzad and an Annoy-o-Tron and hope that he doesn’t silence it before you can get the Flying Machine combo.
The AI isn’t quite as dumb as it was last time this brawl came around – previously he wouldn’t even attack if you had Kel’Thuzad + a taunt minion.
Sherazin, Corpse Flower
Yeah – it’s a poor replacement for Tomb Pillager in the 4 slot and with Conceal going to wild Xaril actually gains value as there’s a chance of getting the Fadeleaf (conceal) toxin card to hide your Auctioneer.
Sherazin, Corpse Flower
Except Rogue is losing conceal so playing QA is going to be far more risky I think.
Golakka Crawler
Yup – I would actually run this in a Rogue pirate deck…
“Thanks for the card Swashburglar – here’s your reward….”
“AAaaagghOMNOMNOMNOMNOM!”
Lakkari Felhound
It’s not for Zoo decks…
It’s for the new quest-based Discolock archetype with Zavas and Lakkari Sacrifice.
Kalimos, Primal Lord
Speaking of Wild… Neptulon is becoming an Elemental; that’s a 7 cost legendary Elemental which curves nicely into Kalimos AND greatly helps with the Shaman Murloc quest…
… and of the 18 current cards that are joining the Elemental Tribe, 8 of them are Shaman and 6 are neutral so, as it stands, Shaman also has by far the biggest pool of Elementals to draw from.
Kalimos, Primal Lord
Holy crap! You choose the effect?
The stats are in line for a boring 7 cost minion so you’re getting an effect, which you choose the one you need for the given situation, worth ~4 mana… for 1. This is a really good card.
Need an Abyssal Enforcer? “Yeah bud, I’ve got you covered, only I won’t kill your minions. ”
Jinyu Waterspeaker? “Yeah, I can do that too – two of them, at once.”
Hmmmm, could just use a fireball about now for lethal… “Well, now that you mention it.”
Damn, maybe I should call Onyxia? *Ahem*
Ozruk
Except Mulch is TGT and will be rotating out… Naturalize or Adapt > Poisonous will be the main Druid hard removals I think.
Ozruk
I suspect Priest isn’t going to have great Elemental synergy though…
Mind, if you play it against a Priest there’s a chance they can OTK you with your own card – Pint Size Potion > Potion of Madness > Inner Fire.
Swamp King Dred
It’s probably not going to be that good … but I really love the idea of a big giant dinosaur scanning the undergrowth looking for movement and leaping on the first unfortunate creature to appear – even if it is poisonous.
Princess Huhuran only costs 5 mana… so a 5 mana 6/5 that triggers another deathrattle is pretty good.
The problem with Princess Huhuran, and to a certain extent this card, is that there’s no good Hunter Deathrattle archetype to play into: N’Zoth Hunter doesn’t really work well (outside of Wild).
So despite Huhuran being a good card, she’s just not worth the 1600 dust to craft – this guy on the other hand is only rare so he’s much more likely to be packed but even if not, he’s only a 100 dust craft.
