I'm stoked! I love using Rag and Nzoth in my wild decks. Using them in standard will be a sweet change of pace. Not to mention Rag is my tied all time favorite legendary (he's tied in first place with Yogg as my all-time fav legendarys)
But here's my question: If we already own both regular and golden copies of these cards we're getting for free, can we disenchant the extra copies we get give to us for extra dust? I know we can't craft them during the event I'm just curious as to how this will effect us players who already have them.
It doesnt matter if you have these cards already. If you have classic Rag, you will still get the event Rag. My guess is that you can only use the event Rag in standard. My other guess is that all of the event cards will be golden.
Yeah, I was thinking most likely the copies we all get will be listed under a "Promotional" set or something. So they will be the same card to prevent you from putting two copies in a Wild deck, BUT the only copies you could disenchant would be your natural copies, not the event copies. And since the event copies are only going to be there for a few weeks, d/e your natural copies would just mean they are now gone from your collection after this event.
Interesting. No so thrilled about Kun or Call of the Wild, as Kun will just encourage OTK builds and COW is always hunter smorc related.
But the rest of the list is pretty sweet. I'm looking forward to mage especially, book will make for some interesting meme moments and flamewaker will get spell mages a power boost.
There is not much N'Zoth can do with Standard pool unless Belcher and Sylvanas come back too.
Khartut Defender will be really sweet with N'Zoth. Each half which dies gets resummoned as a Reborn-intact version. That'll lead to a lot of sticky taunts which also heal you.
Maybe Anka Rogue becomes viable , imagine Anka , then N'Zoth for 1 mana and scheme the N'Zoth. I will definitely try it
If the leaked cards are real i can see secret pally coming back, as well n'zoth and silvanas(BFA anyone?) making a deathrattle heavy decks even better, Kun and thaurisan can make combo decks even better and quest rogue could become real for a while.
LOL poor Warlocks. Imp Gang Boss is great, but Renounce Darkness? Really?
I'm really not convinced this is going to make Standard more fun. It will be interesting for about a week, maybe, but then these cards will become every bit as annoying as they were before they were retired.

Not confirmed, but believed to be pretty accurate!
If that list is real, I can only say congratulations hearthstone. How can you ruin standard format for f2p players, bring back a bunch of old legendary minions that most players would need to craft if they want to be competetive in standard... I play wild myself, so I still have a lot of these cards, but a lot of players disenchanted their cards that rotated out, and now they would need to craft them again?
If they really bring back so many legendary minions it would be one of the worst changes they ever made, in my opinion at least. Don't misunderstand me, I think the idea of bringing back wild cards is great, but not if almost half of the cards are going to be legendary minions. And yes, of course you don't need all of them, but I think you will need at least two or three of them and thats just 3-5k dust in the middle of an expansion.
Woah, easy there fella. I read that Blizz will give everyone copies of these cards for the limited time that they're added to Standard so everyone will be able to enjoy them. When the event is over the cards will be removed from players' collections. It's a really great move and a perfect way to shake things up when we're a few months out from the next expansion and the meta is a little stale.

How are you getting a 1 mana N’Zoth? It is a battlecry minion.
I been doing simulations in my head and i have come to a conclusion about the "leak". If the leak is true we will be seeing alot of plot twist warlocks in the meta. N'zoth and Sylvanas should not be put into standard at the same time for it will bring great unballance. Note Dr. Morrigan and other good deathrattles that warlock can play in quest and plot twist. Rafaam may give copies of n'zoth and sylvanas. If this leak is true... blizzard done fu*ked up. But even without sylvanas it will be powerfull and Anka rogue will be viable too and that is cool.

Heh. I already run plot twist decks in wild, Kibler gave me the idea for a few variations myself. Currently I'm using a dragon warlock plot twist deck that's been super fun to play.
But yeah, I'm down for more plot twist fun in standard too. Anything to stray warlock away from agro/zoo playstyles is fine by me,
putting all these cards back into standard is cool in theory but in reality, 99% of games are going to be big priest now and take forever. Theres not even any good counter to big priest now

Maybe N'zoth can do Quest Paladin a little stronger now

Do we have any idea how long the event will be?
Hoping at least a month!

Seems like a nice list, but some of the cards seem off somehow... well we will know for sure wich cards it will be in two days from now. :)
I really like that they are bringing old cards back and hope they maybe rotate some off this with the classic set.

returning these cards to standard was a terrible idea
unless you like playing one hour match ups every single game.
yes shaman can sometimes beat big priest....but the match ups still take forever now.
