Everyone who doesn't have The Lich King and who doesn't have enough dust for him will craft Stonehill Defender.

Through the first month of release, Stonehill Defender will be the most seen minion on Boards I guess.

Also The Lich King makes Stonehill Defender more valuable for arena I guess.

Although the play animation is amazing, card art looks somewhat lame.

Great Card for Priest

-Priest can steal it with Mindcontrol or Embrace the Darkness, even kill him easily with SWD

-Can resummon it with Eternal Servitude

-Can be discovered by Free from Amber

-The Death Knight Spells have great synergy with Medivh

-Cause of Obsidian Statue, Priest will play more Stonehill Defender ->  dicscover Lich King

it seems that Stonehill Defender just got a new friend for all classes now. don't know how to feel about that, i'm still a  bit salty since the last time my opponent discovered a White Eyes in Arena into a The Storm Guardian 2 turns later, winning a game he would have lost otherwise. This without talking about the Tirions, Primordial drakes sunkeepers Tarim and many others. well, that's RNG stone, gotta get used to it i guess =P

Can we take a moment to talk about the stupid power level disparity of these death knight cards?  Frostmourne = incredible, Death Coil = 2 mana holy fire but better (can heal minions) which is incredible, Death Grip = 2 mana..........wait for it.........mind vision.  Wtf Blizzard?  You can't tell me your entire developent team thought "Death Grip deserves to be included among these godly cards." You literally could have released Death Grip as a class common and it wouldn't even see play!  Again, wtf?

Can you hit your own minions with a weapon? ( i never asked myself the question actually xD)if so, could be fun to play frostmourne on the frozen champion of sindragosa. Probably not the best play in the world, but can be fun if you are in a good position ^^

An unchecked Ysera wins games, and this is one mana cheaper.  And some of those card effects are insane.

What if you get it from Barnes?  Oh god.

i must have it. 

1. turn 8 this

2. turn 9 rogue dk

3. turn 10 double Faceless Manipulator

4 profit

It seemed like Druid is the best with this card synergy than other classes. Paladin is so close. That's my guess.

I predict now that there will be videos made about how broken Death Coil is. Frostmourne is not as broken as it looks (except maybe in Rogue?), but it'll still provide unexpected burst. The other six cards are pretty nuts, but are very situational.

Surprised by Death Grip, since Mind Vision was nerfed because Ben Brode didn't like the idea of physically stealing someone's card for yourself. 

But in any case, I really like this card. 

Auto-include in every value deck. It's even decent against aggro since it has taunt.

Every Death Knight card is really good, aside from Army of the Dead which will be horrible in many matchups.

The only way this doesn't see play is if the meta is so absurdly aggressive that you're almost always dead by turn 8, or if no value deck is viable at all.

I cannot wait for the Turn 8's - mandatory The Lich King - meta 
KotFT equivalent of Doctor 7 ^^

That feel when you see the golden aura, hope for The Lich King but you find Prince Valanar

Its like ysera and it has taunt against aggro so actually better than ysera .

Safe craft.

Dr. 7 make all decks run BGH, this one will do the same with The Black Knight?

Not even taunt (Quest) warrior being T1 for a while made The Black Knight a viable choice, let's be honest no one will ever sacrifice a card slot just to destroy a taunt minion

 

The new Dr. Boom.  Only cooler and more skill dependent!
