Voyage to the Sunken City Rewards Track Refresh Details
One big question that I have is whether or not the class skins for characters like Aranna and Sylvanas retain the “premium” qualities of the OGs, such as their special visual effects on HP, entrance, etc.

I’d rather keep the W and replace the I with an A, seems more fitting.

Diamond Drek’thar feels like Blizz’s April Fools for how overpriced it is. I genuinely wonder what player is willing to pay so much for a skin of a somewhat lackluster card on top of it.
Bone Glaive
This screams underwhelming. It’s Arcanite Reaper with TINY upside. Arcanite Reaper has not been strong enough to see play in Standard for years; you can’t afford to pay 5 mana for this, especially as its lack of any real synergy makes it underwhelming both as a weapon and a Dredging tool. 2/5 at most.

3000 gold or 25$ for a SINGLE card? (not an amazing one at that?) I don’t know what the guy who priced had this morning, but I want some.

I can’t believe it took me like 30 seconds to process “Priest class has been removed” before understanding what that was about. I’m a friggin idiot LMAO

Agreed, Mechs have sort been a dead tribe since Boomsday, now seems like a good time for a comeback.
Abyssal Wave
The official English version has been released and it says about the exact same thing, the wording isn’t particularly clearer. I think it works a little like the old Warlock curse card. While this is in your hand it deals damage at the start of your turn, which increases by 1 each time (so 0 the first time), and if you don’t play it it goes away on its own after 2 turns. I also believe that if you get another Abyssal Curse in your opponent’s hand the damage upgrades stack overall, so that one wouldn’t start at 0 damage, cause otherwise we’d be looking at maximum 3 damage per Curse, which is pretty irrelevant.
Shop Update: Vengeant Kurtrus & Shadow-Touched Xyrella Bundles (Hero Portrait + 5x Class Pack)
Honestly the biggest value in these small bundles are the class packs. The skins are ok but we live in a time and age where there are literal sh1tloads of skins like that, so they aren’t all that valuable in the end compared to “full” premium skins or 1000 wins portraits. Getting class packs however is ALWAYS a pretty sweet deal, so I think paying double price to ensure you get cards for your class is still pretty decent.

Now imagine if it also gave LIFESTEAL. Zilliax maker. Would have been poggers. Clearly good enough as it is though, with adequate Mechs that is.
Smothering Starfish
Feels a bit on the (too) strong side for a neutral card, as Silence effects were traditionally rare. This feels maybe a bit too accessible and with a range across the board for a 3 mana card available to all classes? I dunno.
Lady Ashvane
I just double checked and you are right, but perhaps most surprisingly, he only affected weapons in your DECK, not board and not even hand so whatever little reward you could get out of him was even further delayed by that and would most likely have zero impact. Really weird card.

Ayo, now THIS is a Demon Hunter card I like. At 4 mana it’s a decent Consecration on a stick, and it even hits face, this being Demon Hunter getting a Hero attack is not a big deal, at worst you get to play to this turn 5 and it really isn’t that bad. I think this card has potential, and I like the design : going both face and board seems fitting for DH, a class that’s been flip flopping between being face and control oriented. 4/5 at least
Abyssal Depths
This is so bad it’s confusing. Why on Earth does this cost 4 mana? I feel like even at 3 it wouldnt be anything to write home about, just passable. At 4 it’s down awful. I hope there is something justifying the cost that we don’t know of.
