There's always cult master but I don't really see this guy much in constructed as is.
That's the best news. I doubt control hunter will become viable anytime soon unless we see nerfs to aggro hunter cards, especially Kill Command.
There had to be a reason they decided on Buzzard costing 5 mana. Even cult master is better and costs 1 less. Maybe if we get another spell similar to Call Pet, Buzzard might finally be viable if it can reliably be played for 3 or less mana.
Druids very rarely use Nourish when they have Ancient of Lore. Beast hunter died with the Buzzard overnerf.
I played Control Hunter exclusively, and I don't see this card playable.
Now, we have Emperor Thaurissan....

it's 6 mana, play 3 Webspinners and an Arcane Intellect. Very efficient, high value card. Better than Sprint, except of course Rogues can prep + sprint and Hunters can't, which is why this probably won't be playable in constructed.
In arena on the other hand, the only rare I'd take over it is Highmane. I think this is the mid-game card "draw" hunter was often lacking in arena.
If it would be 4 mana it still wouldn't be added in most midrange hunter decks. In this version it is probably the worst card in the expansion. Probably they just add bad spells to make all the "get random spells" cards a bit worse?

Stomp it down for you?
Shake the plastic bag
and do the twisty thingy, too?
That image doesn't really look legit. The Mana crystal looks incredibly wonky.

PremiumIt was taken from the stream, they cant datamine the proper artwork yet
Frankly, I dont see the problem if this was costed at 5 and had synergy with Buzzard.
Nobody even uses buzzard anymore.
Sprint uses 7 for 4 draw
Lay on Hands 8 for 3 draw + heal
2 cards 10 mana for 6/5+ 3 draw, + 3 RNG draws
im not an expert tbh but I just dont see that being too OP to happen. If it is slightly OP, heck give it a go if people would even consider playing that over smorc hunter 100% of the time.
It will be much better in Arena...Honestly if it's a top deck war or the board is clear this card is a wet dream...Also has anyone even thought about Feign Death??? The card draw would be ape shit...Would probably nail a Highmane and a Beast legendary. ..Who knows...It's very good card in right situation.
The person who was able to obtain the "Poisoned Blade" also pulled it from a stream (Brazilian) and the image looked flawless.
That said, I have now seen the Ball of Spiders outside of this image and feel more confident that this is a legit card.
In a topdeck war I would prefer a Boulderfist Oger over this stupidly overprized card.

How do you figure this??? In a top deck war if you draw 3 cards plus the spinners it's GG...A Boulderfist Ogre is better then a Nourish and 3 1/1's in this situation? Don't think so buddy....Top decking a Nourish when you both have no cards is the dream.
The card feels really meh. If it is a 4 mana for 2 spiders, that's kinda playable. 3 spiders, of which you have no idea what you are getting, that's too much RNG to be a reliable card.
And the artwork. Ugh. What are they thinking?

Nourish is way better than this new card. You can't just throw in a better card to defend this shitty card. This spider cards gives you 3 1/1. Afterwards you can sack all 3 in the Boulderfist and play the 3 new beasts (which are in average around 3 attack and 3 health).. In the same time Boulderfist allready did 12 damge and dealt with most of the beast.. After trading in him you have probably one average beast left..
Nah this card is in nearly every situation shitty.
Still think that they just want to add shitty spells to even out the "random spell" abilities. The hunter theme in this expansion seems to be "war of attrition" cards.. Both cards give hunter free cards which aren't from their deck. Will we see successfull fatigue hunters?^^ I don't think so but maybe Blizzard wants us to try them. We will see

I like this card. It's interesting and might be great in some more controlled Hunter Decks I am playing. It's basically makes your deck containing 35 cards instead of 30 with 6 more cards being beasts. Wish it would be 5 mana to combo with King of Beast, Rhino and Buzzard but it still combos with Knife Juggler.
Fun card, but overcosted by at least 1 mana. This is not what you want to be playing on turn 6.
The only cancer in Hearthstone is its community.
I guess hunter doesn't really need any more good cards does it? He's powerful enough already don't you think?
6 mana seems a little steep at first, but look at it this way: you play 3/3 of stats and delayed draw 3 cards. Essentially, you play a 3/3 and a bad nourish. That's at least 7 mana of value (3/3 body is worth just under 3 mana, 3 cards drawn but delayed and not from your deck is about 4 mana). It's like a mini Ancient of Lore in Hunter. I like it.
Hearthstone is a math game. If you think it's overpowered, do the math, compare it to other similar cards, and then if it doesn't all add up, complain about it being overpowered.
Plenty of better uses for 6 mana.
Maybe if the Spiders had charge...

I like the concept, but I don't think any current Hunter decks would even look at the card. Also, judging from the scrubs who usually play Hunter I don't think it will be played in future decks either.
(If they made it a 0/1 beast that summoned 3 Webspinners as a Battlecry it would have pretty neat synergy with Call Pet sometimes).
I see quite a few replies reflecting my view of the card: it would be better balanced at 5 mana rather than 6.
Now I'm curious why it actually costs 6. Blizzard were testing the card for sure and it quite likely was 5 mana at first. Maybe we underestimate the card a bit. Maybe there are other cards in the set supporting beast / late game hunter, which raise the power level of Ball of Spiders and make it playable at 6 in constructed. In arena, the card is already perfectly fine as is.
