Is this real? Seems fake, since there's no hero power. If that is real it seems like a fairly bad effect, perminant healing that late in the game dosent seem very usefull
(Note: Written before the hero power was revealed. The opinion below is probably outdated)
Really really slow, but that effect will be good long-term against midrange decks. Lifesteal on Blazecaller or Ragnaros the Firelord is really solid.
I honestly can't see this being playable. It's way too slow so it's useless against aggro, and you can't heal over 30, so it's pretty useless against control.
Honestly, this card is interesting. My guess is that all the hero cards in this expansion will give you an extra 5 Armor. This card is obviously way too slow to see any play whatsoever in Standard, however it truly has a chance to shine in Wild where the meta is significantly slower.
3/5 - Playable. Seems strong in Wild, Trash-Tier in Standard.
Guess the hero power has something to do with elementals. Summon a Radiant Elemental? Give an elemental +3/+3? I was hoping Warlock got the lifesteal buff, like give your demons in your hand and deck lifesteal. Probably too similar now for that to happen.
Being on the Homepage doesn't mean it's real. I read the post, it's not a leak from Blizzard, it's a post from someone who has it on their phone or something. We will see if it is real.
In the case it is real, I guess I'm not creating Golden Mage Hero card after all, the card is incredibly bad. Hunter gets a 6 Mana Consecration, Mage gets a 9 Mana Water Elemental and Life Steal. It would need to be an insane Hero Power for this to ever be worth it...
I'd wager the hero power is something along the lines of dealing 1-2 damage and summoning a 1/1-2/2 elemental with life steal. However, this is a 9 mana card, so you can't hero power the same turn and this is basically a 9 mana "gain 5 amor and summon a water elemental"... kinda meh.
I'm sad the warlock one is 10 mana. We already have Jaraxxus to cover the late game. Would have hoped he would get something like Hunter in the mid-range. Oh well, maybe he will wipe the board or something.
Alone, it looks EXTREMELY terrible (like Acidmaw levels of terrible). The Hero Power needs to summon a really strong Elemental, or have some of weapon that does that for immediate impact. Would be exponentially better if it was 8 mana so you could Hero Power in the same turn, but even then, we'll need a strong Hero Power to see.

this seems fake, i still dont understand where they got this from and how it was confirmed real? source?
Check the front page news for the source. We haven't confirmed it as real, but believe it to be a good enough chance of being real that we felt it should be shared.
If you play this card with a board of elementals, you can trade your minions and heal yourself. This might seem a win-more card at first glance, but the possibility of playing this card might force your opponent to clear your board every turn. Of course the mana cost is high and aggro will still try to kill you asap.
We haven't seen the Hero Power and any other cards of the expansion. I'd be more suspicious about the power of this card.

Don't think this has any chance of working unless the Meta drastically slows down, but this will be interesting and fun in a Wild Reno deck.
PS - I guess the reason this looks so bad is because the new hero power is not shown..Just noticed. Were only getting half the picture.
Fake. Nice try.

You should try harder. The picture has zero resemblance with the art of the expansion.
