It’s Duskfallen Aviana, and no, the card is not fake. It’s listed on the official Hearthstone website.

We had the wrong translation earlier but we fixed it when the official one came out.

IGN Brasil. And yes, it’s off the schedule. We were surprised by that reveal too, but it seems legit.

Hunter’s Mark doesn’t do the same, those are two completely different cards. If Hunter’s Mark was infinite damage, then it would see play in literally every deck ever. Dealing damage is much better than reducing health to 1 in most of the cases, because Hunter’s mark is never a 1 for 1 removal, you always have to invest extra resources (1/1 minion or Candleshot charge at best, but it’s not always that easy) to clear the target. With straight up damage, you don’t.

A very common scenario – your opponent has 2 or more minions on the board, you kill one with Eaglehorn Bow. Using Hunter’s Mark on the second one is pointless, because it’s not removing it.

Hunter’s Mark is best at dealing with single big threats. This is great against boards with multiple Midrange minions, against decks like the current Murloc Paladin, Zoo Warlock, in the Hunter mirrors etc.

To be fair, it might make some sense – it would be really cool! But the thing is, they are known for pushing updates either on Tuesday or on Thursday, so I’m not sure.

Also, releasing it on Friday would mean that devs might need to stay over the weekend in case of some problems with the release, which I don’t think they’d really want to.

Echo cards also don’t carry over. Echo copies disappear at the end of your turn. The mechanic would be completely broken if that wasn’t the case.

The so-called “clarification” was just a misunderstanding. The devs have cleared everything since and repeated what they have been saying from the beginning – Echoed cards disappear at the end of your turn.

Echo cards work EXACTLY like Unstable Evolution does.

It does now, there were some problems with displaying it. Sorry!

Paladin is the best (or maybe second best) class in the current meta, no one is saying “one more easy win” when they see Paladin… Dude Paladin and Murloc Paladin are one of the most powerful meta decks.

Yes, Control Paladin in particular is not great, but the class overall is more than good right now.

It’s Neutral. At first I listed it as Druid by mistake, it just looked so Druid-y for me that I ignored the border for some reason 🙁

I don’t believe it will work with resurrect mechanics. It just applies a buff to each minion, and minions resurrect in their basic form, without any buffs.

I’m assuming that Silence will also work to bring the minions down to their normal attack.

But why? The minions are buffed IN YOUR DECK, which means that e.g. Stonehill Defender lands as a 4/4 on the board.

Using Moth wouldn’t make it an 8/8.

Those two have no synergy, not to mention that Lady in White is even and Glitter Moth requires only-Odd deck.

Because it would be completely broken at 1 mana, that’s why.

But if you play that combo in Control deck, you WILL play other minions too. It means that they could potentially screw with that combo.

I’m not saying that the card is unplayable, it’s just that this combo is a bit unreliable. I mean, Han’Cho activated multiple different combos and yet it never seen play, because it’s so hard to set-up. You need to absolutely isolate the combo minion in your hand, but that’s difficult. Combo decks tend to run lots of cycle like Acolyte of Pain, Novice Engineer etc. and Control decks just run lots of other minions.

Not to mention that opponent HAS to have an empty board for this combo to work. Remember that Bouncing Blade stops once it kills something, meaning that if it kills one of the opponent’s minions first (which will be easier since this will shoot them too), it just stops and the combo is done.

So you need to hit it with Han’Cho, ensure that opponent has an empty board somehow, but without using any mana (you CAN play Doomsayer after a board clear, like the guy above said, but Doomsayer can be cleared AND Han’Cho can hit it), then play this combo. It’s just so unreliable and hard to pull off.

1. Doomsayer doesn’t guarantee empty board. It can, and often will, get removed/Silenced.
2. You can’t guarantee that Han’Cho will hit this card.
3. If you need Emperor and a few more combo pieces on top of that, then it’s going to be even harder to pull off.

There are hundreds of obscure OTK possibilities in Wild. 99% of them don’t see play for one simple reason – they are not consistent enough, good enough or there are just better ways to combo down the opponent. This feels like one of those cases.

Hey, thanks for your comment. Just like you’ve noticed, I’m not a native English speaker (I’m from Poland, not France or Spain, by the way). My English is mostly self-taught (this dash is correct, right?), and even though I think that I’m doing a solid job and I’ve improved over the last few years, there is still lots to work on.

The main issue is that grammar in those two languages (Polish and English) is completely different, and I sometimes tend to translate sentences one to one. Sometimes it works, sometimes Something that works in Polish might not sound well in English.

As for the future tense after conditional statement, I’ve never heard about it and so far no one pointed that mistake to me. I will try to not repeat it in the future.

When it comes to dash in set-up, when I’m not sure if something is right I usually google it. I wasn’t sure how to write it, but google didn’t fix the dash version, and I even found it in the dictionary (https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/set-up), so I thought that it should be okay.

And finally, that bloody “the”. The whole concept behind “the” makes no sense to me at all. And I’m serious, I’ve tried learning where should I exactly use it many times and it appears that I’m still putting it in wrong places. Most of the time I use it when it “sounds” right, but as you probably understand, something that sounds right to me might not necessarily be right.

Thank you. Those reviews are especially prone to mistakes, as I want to get them out as quickly as possible, while the card is still “fresh”. And believe me that I’m doing my best to master the language, but it’s a bit tough without someone to proofread everything I write and point out my mistakes. I can read my article 5 times and I still not realize that something is wrong when I think that it’s in fact correct.

“The rating is ridiculous.” – you mean my rating from the review? Because I rated it 2 out of 10.

The card was recreated using an external tool, because no English version was provided and it needed a translation.

The actual in-game card will obviously look better… We will update with a HD artwork too once the official English version is released by Blizzard.

You’re right, but I don’t think it will be good. You prefer cards that will keep you alive BEFORE playing Bloodreaver Gul’dan. After that, you already summon lots of Taunts and your Hero Power is already good.

A card that works only after you play your other 10 mana card is not really that amazing.

It’s a Robo-Pinocchio, duh.

It’s too expensive, I’m afraid. You can play 2 Hero Powers max without some sort of discount.

Not sure why Vivid Nightmare would be good with this one. I mean, you’d be able to heal for 8 or deal 8 damage with your Hero Power (as Shadowreaper Anduin), but that’s it.
