Don't worry, Paladin will get their own cards, it's probably more on the Goblin side. We've seen 3 each from Mage and Priest already, so there's every reason to believe Pally gets 3+ as well.
Don't forget the legendary leaks. I think it's safe to say, that those are true. Which means (at least) 1 new class legendary, too! In addition to a minion and 2 spells (if they have the same plan for all classes), then we'll get 4 new cards including a (hopefully) more midgame-ish legendary
Hey,hey,remember those guys saying those cards were fake?
i play pali on ladder, i mean granted im only rank 14 but i only play a few games a day really.. ive been playing the game for over a year and pali is really the only class i enjoy playing to be honest
i can only hope that blizzard will do right by the paladin and make some cards synergize with its hero power a little better or atleast get a solid early/midgame creature or a better form of early game removal
Of the current cards. The only thing a Paladin would enjoy is Explosive sheep. To not just get facerolled by aggro like it currently is. The possible plays with acolyte is nice too. But I get the feeling it will perform poorly like unstable ghoul. Problem being you yourself cannot easily trigger it when you want.
Looks average for Paladin. Great for Mage or Warrior.
I think Goblin Sapper will be a staple in Paladin if there are a few more miller cards that actually do the mill.
A 2/4 for 3 itself isn't bad at all. But the bonus will make it a really good card in constructed if you can make the opponent Draw some cards.
Not sure how much more favored it will be over Spider Tank. Spider tank will be better vs Huntard and Zoo. Sapper would be amazing vs other control and miracle. Lol, I may just try to run both.

It would be nice to see Paladin receive some love. I used to like playing paladin the most, until I decided to actually try to grind the ladder ranks haha. Goblin Sapper will help aggro paladin for sure, when mixed with Dancing Swords and whatever else. However, it's unfortunate that it helps another aggro archetype so far haha. I prefer the slower midrange/control matchups.

hence maybe why people are hoping for some cards that actually make paladin viable to climb with
Pally just needs better early game removal. I'm hoping for something similar to Warrior's Fiery War Axe... that weapon is such a great answer to early aggro minions like Undertaker.
Maybe they could have like a Sword and Shield kinda thing, something like 3 mana 3/2, with "Take one less damage while attacking" or something. I donno. Maybe it would be fine as 2 mana 2/2. or 3 mana 2/3. If it only has 2 attack though, then it doesn't help too much with killing early undertakers since they're so easy to buff haha.

This.
I really hope we get some useful cards. Naxx made everyone else stronger, but pally actually got weaker because our board clears are now less effective vs. all the deathrattle. Surely Blizzard can see that it's the least used class on the ladder and needs a boost. Yes, there are the aggro/secret pally decks, but those really aren't that effective with all the mindless hunters running around.
I mean really: Priest were bottom because of lack of early game. Now Paladin is bottom because of lack of early game... If they dont give paladin a early weapon/ spell then I'm really disappointed.

My Deck holds up slightly against Huntards. Depends on who get's undertaker in the start.
Interesting list. What rank did/have you got to with it? I'm short Knife Juggler x1, 2x Divine Favor and Sword of Justice x 1. I have enough dust to make all of them, but I REALLY want to save dust for next month/exp.

As of now, we don't know what Class Specific cards the Paladin will get, if any, in the Goblins vs Gnomes expansion.
We know of some Mage, Priest, and Warrior cards at the moment.
However, what do Paladin players think of the cards? Will you incorporate any of the new cards in your decks?

Good times...
I imagine deatha-mecha-din will be a thing after the release but im mostly hoping for more early to mid game stuff to help with control paladin.
paladin? do people even play this class at all,coz i haven seen anyone playing this class on the ladder,that counts me as well :)

I ground my Pally to gold on ranked in season 4, but wouldn't want to do that again!
The class is good at everything but great at nothing, and Avenge was nothing compared to some of the other Naxx class cards.
Still my favorite class but not good on the ladder and with all classes getting new GvG cards hard to see him ever catching up.
Do you think Illuminator will be a must have card in Secret Paladin? I believe so. And it would make Aggro Pally a bit more durable.
