u need to add the "hunter mastiff" token card.
Ehm, no it's not, it very clearly had different artwork.
Goodbye Rogue, my old friend. It was nice to have known you.
Corrupted Seer is missing the rare symbol in the list
Need to add the Ooze and Slime tokens, then I'll need to figure out how to link to them instead of
Oozeand SlimeEDIT: looks like there isn't already a vanilla Ooze, lucky lucky.
Also a Mastiff token.
Also tentacle token is missing.
After seeing all the class cards revealed, I'd say that the biggest winner is Shaman, followed by Mage. The biggest loser is Priest, followed by Warlock.
In terms of class specific stuff that we got, I agree that Priest's cards are underwhelming. However, I beleive that a shift into a control met bodes well for priest and we'll have some of the best C'Thun decks.
So... How many weeks for the new adventure?
If on the same marginal time frame as the other ones, around September-november

or 27 for EU
I was joking xp after TGT came out it only took 3 months or so for LoE to come out. So that's what my joke is about. I'm asking how many weeks because I was honestly expecting a bit more of some cards...
So the idea for Blade Flurry nerf was to give Rogues better weapons. Then the nerf happens and expansion comes out with 134 new cards where Paladin, Warrior and Shaman get a weapon each, but Rogue doesn't. Then there is a card called Blackwater Pirate that interacts with weapons and is a pirate, but it's of little use to Rogue. It can be combined with Perdition's Blade, but other than that it useless. I am still trying to understand the increase from 2 to 4 mana. With the text change 2 would still be reasonable. Maybe even 3 mana. But 4? Damn, this just doesn't make any sense right now.
You've forgotten the most overpowered weapon Rogue and only Rogue can play..
...Poison Blade
Designing a new set takes months, they finalized the nerfs somewhere within the past few weeks...
With a little bit of math we can conclude they could not design this set with the nerfs in mind.
I feel your pain, but please don't count Tentacles for Arms as a real warrior weapon. T^T
