The Forest's Aid
I think this is underrated, this demands an answer immediately, 10/10 stats for 8, and it gives you reload if this wave is cleared. Obviously it’s weak to aoe, but the deck you’re playing this in has other threats too that also demand aoe answers. The threat of of savage roar plus the fact that these are treats to the 5 mana card can make them 5/5s on the next turn. This is at least a 4/5
Plot Twist
This exactly. Control warlock needs the tools they are losing to be good, this card alone will not help them because they will die before fatigue becomes relevant. We saw this last year when they lost Reno to rotation, had no healing, and were the worst class in the game during the Un’Goro meta. They’re gonna need new lifesteal/healing cards, we’ll see what they get.
Plot Twist
Yeah, I haven’t played the yugioh equivalent of this, but this doesn’t seem good at all, SUPER overrated atm. Even the combo with the legendary isn’t that great cause all the minions you summon die at the end of the turn, and there’s no Gul’dan to bring back demons. I can’t see any serious deck using a slot for this once the initial meme period at the start of every expansion is over.
Bronze Herald
This is good and important not because of this card itself, although it’s pretty solid, but because of cathedral gargoyle, a card that’s been lying dormant for an entire year waiting for support with the potential to be super strong with support. Support has arrived, prepare to see a ton of 2 mana 2/2 taunt divine shield on turn two
Farraki Battleaxe
So far this Overkill keyword has not been it for any of the cards chief. You’re overpaying for a card, then you have to use said card inefficiently for a meh-to-okay effect.
Nerubian Unraveler
I think this card is good, definitely better than 2.9 out of 5 stars good.

However, I believe the minions that Living Mana creates DO have Deathrattle: Gain an Empty Mana Crystal. I didn’t look before responding, but I’m almost certain that’s the case.

-1 Mana Tide, +1 Bloodlust. Works great so far, I’ve had multiple games end with Bloodlust lethal because of how easily the deck can populate the board.
Peter Whalen just confirmed on Twitter that if you hit the second half of a reborn minion with this, you get the original minion back at full health with reborn. So this card is even stronger than I thought
