New Keyword: Recruit
Cards with the Recruit keyword immediately summon minions from your deck and put them into play. Some cards recruit minions that match certain conditions; others recruit randomly chosen minions.
Spellstones
Spellstones are a new type of card which can be upgraded during play! Once you fulfill a listed condition, such as playing two Elemental minions, the card upgrades into a more powerful version.
Unidentified Items
Unidentified Items are cards which when put into your deck don't have a predetermined effect. When the card is put into your hand, the effect of the card will become known. Each item has its own pool of effects that it can randomly choose from.

Why is Grizzled Guardian awful? Don't Evolve Shamans run many low cost minions? Getting them out for free late game is good. Also it has taunt you failed to mention since you mentioned taunts on all other minions that have it for some reason.
[card]Grand Archivist[/card] also is not that awful, you might get a 2nd evolve at the end of your turn or a free AoE.
Yea, somehow i was thinking Guardian recruiting 8-mana minion. It makes it better, yeah. But still not what you really want. You usually dont want jade spirit or 'how long can this go on' to lose their battlecry, and considering that evolve shaman uses a lot of battlecry with bad stats to evolve it i can be a problem. Sure its good if you get manatide, but you most likely will get it not in your turn and you may not even get a card from it.
Grand Archivist, well, im not sure if you want to use your evolve without control. Maybe sometimes, yeah, but not really. And there other spells you might have like jade lightning, bloodlust, Volcano, hex. Yea, sometimes lightning storm or mealstorm or devolve might be good, but too inconsistent and not reliable, i mean you can just waste it for nothing so i wouldn't say you want to get it from evolve.
If Marin the Fox is merely Bad, it's uncalled for to say Geosculptor Yip is Awful. Same with Curator and Vek'lor being both below Bonemare, who is somehow seen as equal to Cho'Gall and Grimestreet Protector somehow.
This list is a load of bollocks.
are you even playing the same game
Actually I'm excited to play with each class (even meme hunter)!
i don't buy this expansion. i think no balance in this expancion. also i have 7.2k gold.
This is the first expansion in a while that actually doesn't have completely useless cards. It surprises me that even the common, vanilla neutrals are playable, of course, not likely in a competitive format, but definitely in arena. It will be very interesting to see what happens to all aspects of the game, can't wait to play some dungeon runs though, and play a 4 mana 20/20 lul brokeback
I'm somehow most excited about Mage cards :D Don't know why.
To the people who complained about how this expansion will stay shorter in standard than WOTOG and ONIK: i think it's more about the expansion's relevance. Look at MSoG: it will stay short in standard, yet many of its cards are relevant to the current meta: we got Priest's Dragonfire potion, the Kazakus package, the Jade Golems, Pally's small legendary, Warlock's heal minion, etc, etc. Maybe this expansion is as impactful as (or even more than) Gadgetzan. Then again, maybe it is garbage; we have four months to figure it out
Best expansion EVER
Agreed :,c
kobolds>murlocs
no chargers either!
This expansion buffed Molten Blade a lot
Most of the weapons won't be utilisable by warrior so it might actually be a nerf
Mostly meme cards I don't need and can save my gold. Gonna focus on Arena more it seems.
hello look the basic idea of our new cancer

Dire Mole looks like one of the sleeper cards of this expansion. Great in hunter and aggro druid.
love how even the common cards have effects will be really crazy for arena so excited
disappointed how there is no 0/1/1 candle
