This has been the best expansion in terms of pack filler cards. I havent seen a single card without an interesting ability like Deathspeaker. The only card that is just vanilla as a neutral is Snowflipper Penguin and we all know that card is meta-defining
Edit:
Righteous protector is pretty boring, but it is still a good card.
Acolyte of Agony is the only boring AND bad card in the set
except acolyte of agony is not bad
compared to kabal talonpriest
But the acolyte is good right?
It's only 1/1 and taunt less from a legendary status! Amazing amiright guys. Totally the best legendary btw, that prince of theirs.
They are not. They are going to rotate when the first set of next year releases
AFAIK they only remove cards from standard at the start of each year, or more accurately at the start of each 'Hearthstone year' which is after the first set of the year is released.
To be honest, this is the least excited I've ever been about a new expansion. Yeah the mechanics and stuff is cool, but it just seems like most of it is either powercreep or just bland in general. Did they really need to make another 0 mana 1/1? I understand that it is filler but something there are many better ways than just the same thing again. Maybe it will turn out better, but for now, I'm kinda disappointed.
HOW DARE YOU CALL SNOWFLIPPER PENGUIN A PACK FILLER
Every card has it purpose. Snowflipper Penguin might be created so you can play Beast-synergy card without spending extra mana (for example when you only has 3 mana left and need to play Kill Command). It certainly is not a staple for every deck, but I think somebody will use it somewhere
I wish they would show more deathrattle minions, since there's only 9 of them.
One thing I haven't seen discussed anywhere (might have missed it?)
Will the upcoming DK heroes have new/separate emotes/voices/hero power animations?
Yes, they will. It was shown in a card reveal stream.
Yes they will, They played a short clip of the Priest one on the Omnislash stream w/ Mike Donais.
