Where is the hero power hero cards suppose to give you a different hero power + This card is just a trash.
If this is real I hope I don't get this.
You have noted yourself that, supposing it is real, we don't have all of the information. So what are you basing your opinion of it being "trash" on?
Besides, Un'Goro showed very well that the community's ability to assess cards before playing with them, especially before seeing the entire set, is pretty poor. So I wouldn't bother knocking (or praising) cards yet
Those effects are just trash you need an incredible hero power to make this card work
Being voted most gullible in high school, I totally believe this is the real deal. Decent card that pushes different cards to be played. The Magma Rager family still won't see any love.
9 cost? Need an OP Hero Power to balance it. Elementals? Probably fake, the art of this card have low resolution and is very ugly. Bad card, VERY bad card.

They are not 9 mana worth of effects no, but nor is Jaraxxus' weapon (granted he has a pretty good hero power).
Mage is well established to be able to play slow decks so don't assume it is unplayable until you see its hero power. If the rogue one is 9 mana with a 'trash' battlecry then go ahead, but not mage, pally or warlock.
How can you vote on this without knowing the hero power?
If it has anything to do with discovering a spell or adding a random spell to your hand, I will hate it. Knowing Blizzard, this is probably what its going to be.

Life before death. Strength before weakness. Journey before destination.
It's slow, but it could work in a control mage build. Mage has plenty of ways of generating elementals (Flame Geyser, Pyros, Molten Reflection) in addition to the neutral cards of Servant of Kalimos, Igneous Elemental and Fire Fly (I'm sure I'm missing others). Also, you are going to have to kill Ragnaros so fast in wild. Deal 8, heal for 8. Makes me even happier that he's off to wild.
When you compare the card art for Deathstalker Rexxar to the art in the reveal trailer, the two are identical. However, when you compare the art for Jaina, Frost Lich to the art in the trailer, they are incredibly inconsistent. Based on the card art alone, I'm certain that this "leak" is a fake. If this is the actual art for the card (forget about the effect/name), I will be extremely disappointed with Blizzard.

I think it's going to be "Add a random elemental to your hand" or "Discover an elemental" given the text of the hero itself
Personally I think jaina the frost bitch is going to be really bad, it doesn't matter how powerful the hero power will be. (If this is real)
It's just too much loss of tempo to recover from. The fact that you can't even hero power the same turn hurts even more.
It reminds me of the time warp quest, which also had a very powerful effect but never saw much play because of overly steep requirements. And at least the quest starts in your opening hand; you still have to be lucky enough to draw the new hero cards.
Tl;Dr: Blizzard loves to print really powerful cards that never see play because they are too costly.
So my first question is, How does this work with Rag, Anomalus and Baron Geddon? You pop everyone on the board and get life? Anomalus could become playable? I mean a Flamestrike costs 7 and does 4 damage. An 8 cost 8/6 body that clears the board and pulls what amounts to a Reno Jackson on you??? It's like Deathwing without the hand loss, super Flamestrike and Reno in one card. For Mages only! Holy crap! It can't possibly work that way right? Does lifesteal go off whenever you do actual damage or when an text on the card does damage? It seemed from the Priest reveal that it goes off the text. Cause you could basically freeze mage with elementals if that's how it works. OP.

Perhaps you're unaware that Quest Mage now has a >50% win rate after the Caverns nerf, and is starting to reappear in the meta.
Think about Reno decks for a moment -- they don't need to draw Reno, but he often ensures a win if they do. DK cards don't even have deckbuilding restrictions like Reno does.

This is most likely fake. All heroes face forward; they always have.
It's slow, but it could work in a control mage build.

Seems more likely that this card has been made with the idea that Ice Block will go Hall of Fame next time they move cards to HOF imo.

This card looks decent to me. If the hero power is summon a 3/6 elemental it would be crazy good.
I dont see how this is 100% fake?

I... I love him.
Mage can extend the game long enough for this to work, BUT will the lifesteal effect work with Baron Geddon and Blazecallers 5 dmg?

The art is really terrible. The main feature of Deathstalker Rexxar is that it's still Rexxar. This art doesn't have anything to do with Jaina.
wonder what hero power will look like
