Fight Over Me
Seems like a really good card, similar to Hysteria but with less rng which is good and with extra value generation, you can even play cathedral of atonement to buff an enemy minion to ensure it get destroyed in the trade.
Tight-Lipped Witness
Might see play in wild since it’s cheaper than eater of secrets. 3.5/5

Seems like a good card BUT, combo decks man, Priest doesn’t struggle at staying above 20 health in most matches, except against aggro archetypes and this card is too slow to do something against them.

This is the first card in HS history that requires to be holding 2 (specific) cards at the same time to trigger it’s effect, it isn’t very good against combo/control and against aggro, you are pretty much using the required spells to clear the board so yeah, I don’t want to say it’s terrible but it’s really hard to me to consider this any good.

Illucia is dead!
She should have kept some disruption effect and instead of that they made her a random value card and still 3 mana? sure might be usefull sometimes in control games but I don’t see it possible in the current meta where everyone is rushing their own winconditions.
Balance Changes Will Be Discussed Next Week After Masters Tour, Coming The Week After
Hopefully we will see not only nerfs but buff as well.
Iksar was asked about why Dark Inquisitor Xanesh didn’t reduced the cost of already corrupted cards and his response was that they will be looking at it, and honestly the card could receive a buff since it’s mediocre and it’s at it peak performance, it’s unlikely that more corrupt cards will be ever printed.
Primordial Protector
Good on paper but noone will play a 8 mana tutor with no real impact on the board.

The winner is absolutely gorgeous but it’s the snake the one that really caught my attention, it’s pretty simple yet filled with details, the color palette is quite simple too using only charcoal, orange fire and an ambar snake as gradient.
Solid, sober, elegant.

I see it otherwise, “on attack” mechanic has been barely explored and this could’ve open new design for future archetypes on both classes, the only way I see this could’ve broken the game is with effect that directly damage the enemy (like tiller did) or protecting yours (maybe getting bizzarre amounts of armor).
I don’t want to sound harsh but we’ve seen these kind of “design limitations” excuses before, one year after Prophet Velen was HoF for this reason we haven’t got a card that could’ve broken it on standard.

Idk, I’m not designer nor developer but maybe doing some balances to stop the combo without killing the card and withouth nerfing both classes that are doing terrible in the current meta would have been nicer, maybe making hysteria unable to target Immune minions or giving Hysteria a DW Mad aspect effect like where it can attack all minions but only once or until it dies would have been way better.
But what do I know, I’m not the one getting paid shit ton of money to develop a game with a balanced content.

The nerf to hysteria feels like punishing the gun for killing a person instead punishing who pulled the trigger.
Dark Inquisitor Xanesh
This card doesn’t make any sense in Priest, the effect is similar to Frizz Kindleroost and yet that card never saw any play, this is more expensive and worse stated.
1/5
Rally!
This card alongside Psychopomp is great for a tempo ressurrect deck, using Injured Tol’vir, Injured Blademaster,
