Curves perfectly from Howling Commander to Bolvar Fireblood. This will see lots of play, it’s only weakness is spells.

I’ve always been against cards like this that draw your win condition *cough* Cavern Shinyfinder *cough*
I believe one of the unique things about Hearthstone over other card games is your deck needs to be good even if you don’t draw your win condition. However, Warrior is in a bad spot right now.
This isn’t the card Hearthstone deserves, but it’s the card warrior needs.

First thought was more support for even Paladin, but secrets are odd…
My biggest hope is that this means they’re finally adding more Paladin secrets. Been wanting something that reads “when one of your minions is attacked by another minion, give it divine shield” or something. Might be too good, but Divine Paladin needs something like that.
Doesn’t anybody know why they’ve stopped making Paladin secrets?

Takes Coldlight Oracle away from Standard due to it harming class identity.
Proceeds to add minion removal to every class.
Great card, obviously much better in some classes than others (as are all neutral cards). Will be excited to see how this fits into current archetypes.

Dude yeah people like that are dumb. The list of cards that had bad rating and end up being good is just as long as the contrary, and people throwing cards like this out before seeing the rest of the set are no doubt going to be the ones crawling back when they see what the meta actually is.
Even elemental decks don’t work just because you have to keep playing an elemental every turn, and you likely don’t have enough options in that case. Tar Creeper, Wax Elemental, Servant of Kalimos, Fire Fly, Igneous Elemental, Stone Sentinel, Glacial Shard, Air Elemental, Hot Spring Guardian, Thunder Lizard, Blazecaller and more are all unavailable. You only keep Tol’vir Stoneshaper, Kalimos, Fire Elemental, Frozen Crusher, Frost Elemental, Fire Plume Phoenix, Volatile Elemental, Grumble, and Al’Akir.
Out of the good elementals, you’re losing 8 of the 11. Of course there are more to come, and others can maybe fill the void, but it’s unlikely that elementals can work in an even cost deck.
