Now that all card are revealed, this expansion will bring us just one Pirate (or did I miss any?): too bad, I was really hoping to play some good Captain Hooktusk decks.
I'm living for this new expansion. I wished for more related things to the Old Gods from Lazul, but she's a really mysterious character so who knows what the other expansions will bring.
Also, one epic card wasn't announced...
Yeah, seems it fixed now.
135/135 baby
Am I crazy or are we missing 1 epic neutral card?
We don't have the legendary cloak? The one we get by finishing the adventure?
I mean that's good, there's no chance this way that you get it from packs too.
So:
Aggro: - Secret paladin - Army Mage - Token Druid - Murloc Shaman
Control: - Mech Warrior - ????
Thank you Bli$$ard for listening only to the casual f2p aggro face players and cancering more the game
Ok, so let's imagine this control meta:
You are a control, then probably you have Archivist Elysiana into your deck, because it's a must in a meta like that since it can make you win in a control vs control match, then probably also your opponents have it. With other cards that shuffle minions in your deck (e.g. Togwaggle's Scheme or Baleful Banker) and cards that returns minion in your hand (e.g. Youthful Brewmaster), you can play another Archivist Elysiana when your deck is empty... 40 min of game and still you are not sure of who will win. Seems fun...
Won't combo decks beat a control meta or are all combo decks now unplayable due to rotation?
Yes there could be some combo deck to counter a control meta, but in response control decks could add some tech card like Hecklebot or/and Unseen Saboteur depending on the type of combo they want to break, and Archivist Elysiana is already a combo breaker for cards like Hakkar, the Soulflayer that shuffle cards in oppenent's deck to win
Interesting...
live stream?
Hey
really powerfull cards

Unleash+buzzard, the nightmares.
You forgot about Zayle, Shadow Cloak card.
That card doesn't belongs to Rise of Shadows expansion, it belongs to the new Adventure that we will get one month later that RoS goes live.
I still want to see new mechs with "magnetism" tag...
