Is it bad that I wish this guy had a different portrait for whenever he's "awake"? Just a big wide-eyed version looking up from otherwise the same pose.
Not worth building a deck around, but a card that could snowball if buffed correctly without an answer. I look forward to seeing some priest or paladin make this work in a crazy gimmick, but yeah otherwise this is mostly there for Hunter Beast chaos and being a disappointing random card in brawls and other RNG times.
Neither of those are viable for Arena drafts (unless they literally show up in your first few buckets), and Baku is only popular for certain hero powers. Plenty of room for this guy to fill in the deck archetype cracks or hang out in Even decks. Plus Prince Keleseth is cycling out of Standard in a few months.
Can't wait to see infinite copies of High Priestess Jeklik and her identical sisters. Thankfully no deathrattle and not being a demon still make her less annoying than Voidlord.
Play this on turn 2 with Daring Fire-Eater+ hero power turn 3 and rage face on aggro decks and wide boards. Only drawback is the stealth means they should know better than to play into it, but getting an aggro deck to hesitate their board development might still be worth it.
You're never gonna build a deck exclusively around this guy, but he seems like he could be a surprisingly versatile 2-drop, especially if we keep seeing cards that want you to spam your hero power a lot. I bet we see more of this guy than people are expecting, and a LOT of this guy in Arena.
This is a Battlecry effect. Can't wait to see all the insane exploits people are going to come up with to make this trigger multiple times, especially in Wild. Might be too slow to be meta-definining but the chaos when it actually works might be worth rollin' Big Mage for a while.
Found this to be real inconsistent. If they get the coin you're dead on turn 3, and if they're using Gorillabot A-3 instead of Metaltooth Leaper, this deck doesn't even counter it correctly as it leaves the Gorillabots and anything else they summoned completely in tact. Deck is just a bit too slow in most circumstances, but when it works and you get to wipe their board on turn 3 with a coin it's probably pretty satisfying.
Gone 100% with this deck so far! I don't know how useful the Mana Addict is (her 3 health makes her a really easy target for most of the spells that can pop up, and she's a high priority target), but Questing Adventurer is a monster and the rogue combo minions clean up most people's early boards really nicely. Troggzor the Earthinator is an amazing finisher in this play mode (most people seem to concede as soon as he drops). It might even be worth trying a variant that runs Stonesplinter Trogg or Burly Rockjaw Trogg just to keep the pressure on your opponent's spells.

Yeah I don't think any of it has been added in-game yet.

The most important change is here: If you type "Golden" into the search field it now shows you all your gold cards.

I think the preorders are supposed to go live on the 15th, so sometime tomorrow?

This is great news! For World of Warcraft players! Probably not for Hearthstone players, though!
