…and I’d argue that you’d run both.

Yeah, they are a bit tacky.

This is basically a slower eviscerate reprint. It might not be quite as good as evis as a result, particularly in aggressive decks, so 4/5

may see play in even mage, might be slightly too slow.

Can confirm this, one thing I’ve learnt from playing HS is that 10am PT is 6pm here in GB.

If secret paladin works, this’ll be the reason.

Although the flipside would be that such a package would make it harder to empty your deck, so we may see to what extent it would be worthwhile.

I reckon the new Core 5-drop that tutors your highest-cost card could be important for this sort of deck, and running an extensive Soul package should reduce to chance of milling the wrong cards.

Actually turs out it’s only end-of turn (you can check it on playhearthstone.com)

I don’t honestly see it being viable with just the cards we’ve seen so far. It realistically still needs another wincon imo, and possibly more even than that.

How so?

Both going by analogy with Gruul

I expect so, especially given the nature of the discussions re stonetusk boar and bluegill warrior.

Essentially because “poisons” and “librams” would be far too narrow to bother with, both in terms of the number of synergies and the number of cards. Additionally, such cards already fall into the established spell schools anyway.

There’ll still be Rustwix, but that might be it. I’m still concerned at the consistency of this deck, although a soul fragment package should help for a few reasons.

A “portal” is not a new concept – the un’goro quest reward is the best example of when one was used before.
The card states clearly that the wimps are summoned “every turn”. This means they will essentially be summoned between turns, in other words at the start and end of your turn, just like Gruul’s effect.

The cards will count as versions of the same card (similar to golden vs regular), so you’ll only be able to use a normal playset in a deck (i.e. 2, or 1 if legendary)

This is probably a pretty damn good win wincon, but as always, we need to see what it actually summons, and we need to be able to run enough good deathrattles for this to trigger consistently. Probably 4/5, but possibly not immediately. We may need to wait an expansion or two for it to work fully.

Cant really be judged until we see what its drawing.

I reckon we can take a conditional 0-mana 2/3. They’re usually decent. 3/5
