Lately I've been trying to really pay attention to what happens on the screen when you play a card. Sure, some of them are very plain...the card says its battle cry or makes its sound and just plops down there.
But I'm talking about the ones that give us something extra. Some of the ones I really enjoy are Feral Spirit (the way the wolves fly in from the side) and Brawl (it's just hysterical to listen to). I also laugh every time the Leper Gnome screams "Gimme a big hug!!"
It's the little details like this that show how much effort Blizzard put into this. The game would still be fun to play without these little extras. We wouldn't care if all minions but one simply disappeared without any sound or animation when you play Brawl, but having these extras makes the game that much better.
Any other animations or sounds that you really enjoy?

I love how King Krush enters the battlefield. That's one of my favorite animations for sure.
Here are some of my favorite sounds that I find myself repeating all the time. There are many other good ones though. Too many to really list them all haha. Which is the sign of an excellent game in my opinion.
"You shall pay for your insolence!" -Onyxia
"That belongs in a museum!" -Harrison Jones
"Take heart, young one. The Earthmother is near." "Garrosh! You are not fit to rule the Horde." -Cairne Bloodhoof
And there is something disturbing about the way Mana Addict screams she can taste the mana.
Back in the early days of Hearthstone I played Mana Addict Mage deck (which was doing quite well) and I loved her so much, especially her tremoring and excited voice when she atacks " Whhhat a rrushh"

It always gets me whenever a Doomsayer dies he says "I KNEW IT!" lol
"Put your faith in the Light!"
"You require my assistance?"
Totally love the epic music that follows.
I always think Loot Hoarder is asking if he can roll some weed.
Leeroy Jenkins saying at least he has chicken when he dies.

Twisting Nether has a sick animation as well, and the Knife Juggler telling you to "put an apple on you head" is priceless.
"GIMME A BIG HUG"

YOU FACE JARAXXUS, EREDAR LORD OF THE BURNING LEGION
Best graphic: Twisting Nether for sure. Sometimes when I'm bored, I play my stupid Demon deck just to see its effect. Sadly it's not viable.
Best sound effect would be Leeroy Jenkins. It reminds me of that funny WoW vid from long time ago.

Coolest intro has to be Kel'Tuzad.
i agree that Cult Master is hilarious.

For me the absolute best card animation and sound goes to...
Reliquary of Souls
I had to craft it just for the card animation.
Runner ups...
Deathwing, Mad Aspect after he comes flying in and starts clearing the board.
Dragonbane always makes a grand entrance. Never get tired of that animation.
Rattlegore's shout is one of a kind...where is the silence when you need it!?
Tyrantus, King Krush, Reno the Relicologist, and Patches the Pirate and Deathwing always make a grand entrance too.
Lord Jaraxxus After he dies. One of the best audio deaths.
