If only Enrage was a thing, then i'd consider this card decent. We've seen the power of lackeys which are pretty good so this might make a decent aggro tool, who knows?
Unless Warlock gets more demon synergy Imps will never work, they don't even fit into an aggro or zoo deck because of thier low stats and lack of abilities.
Just to clarify this means that if you discover a Gorehowl you give your opponent 7 armor but if they get a Blood Razor you only get 2 armor. There's also the possibility that this can get broken if you discover Bladed Gauntlet but I don't know.
I like that this gives both you and your opponent options but I don;t know if it's too strong or if the cost is too high.
Fine enough card and good for dealing with taunts or bigger threats when you don;t have an instant death card. Might be good for aggro not having to sacrifice 2-3 small minions for one big minion and someone will pull of combos with this but other than that... it's fine.
Cool name, bad card. Not enough good mechs with deathrattle outside of Spider Bomb that I can think of so combined with high costs and bad stats it doesn't really work for me.
There's a lot of Mid-Range control potential with this card, spells like Bloodlust, Healing Rain, Lightning Storm, The Storm Bringer, and whatever other spells Rise of Shadows is adding could add some crazy potential to this card. I just want to know if the spells you choose effect the cost of the elemental and other than that it should be really fun to see.
We have our spoilers for the Year of The Dragon packs just like we did for last year, so let's get theorizing about what they could possibly be. Obviously, this is just speculation based on the designs and some of my own World of Warcraft knowledge about areas and raids and what popular locations make sense to talk about. Okay, let's go.
1. The first pack has a bright purple design with also some trimming of white and gold. The glow in the center of the pack makes me think of Twisting Nether, I know people predicted The Netherstorm from Burning Crusade last year because of the color and sparkle of purple (and we were partially right) so i'm going to say this has something to do with Kil'Jadeen, Leader of the Blood Elves and Tempest Keep (aka. The Eye of the Netherstorm) or possibly the Sunwell Plateau where they corrupted some blue dragons, summoned an avatar of pure light, and fought Kil'Jadeen in a summoning portal. That sounds like it has enough content to make a full expansion/adventure about.
2. The second one is trickier. the light blue color makes me think of the Monk class and their Chi abilities but the writing on the bottom looks more like the demon language used by the Eredar. It's entirely possible to have an expansion based around Pandaria since there's plenty of lore characters and flavor there for a full expansion. The same thing goes for Demons, there's two expansions based around them and plenty of places like Illidan's Black Temple and The Broken Isles where the demon's run rampant to base cards around but the color of the teaser is what throws me off. Otherwise, the color and the runes underneath it don't make me think of any other stand out locations.
3. Another tricky one. Now this might be a fill-in pack just like last year with Rhastakan's Rumble because the finished product looked much different than the teaser we were shown but if I had to make a guess this has something to do with the deep mines. The color on this card is really dark brown and black and honestly makes me think of The Iron Horde from Warlords of Drae'nor. Getting an expansion based around them and using the different orc generals as class legendary cards does make some sense and that's something I would definitly be interested in seeing but other than that. I have nothing.
Hey man, this is a great post and I really enjoyed it. I agree with most of your post except for Shaman and Warlock; sure Moorabi is a shitty card but it does kind of work with the freeze archetype but I think there are other useless Shaman cards that never see play like Bogshaper, Windshear Stormcaller, and Totem Cruncher that I have literally never seen played before.
For Warlock there's things like Ectomancy, Fiendish Circle, and Hir'eek, the Bat which either never see play or just require too much set up for it to be viable.
While it's probably not about the new expansions (sadly) I really liked your idea OP and I would have loved to see this as expansions, this would be my thoughts on them.
1. The alabaster white and silver detailing makes me think of The Alliance, it could have been about Stormwind City or another alliance controlled city state like Gnomereggan or Ironforge. I'm more of a Hoard guy myself but this could have been cool.
2. The second one is definitely demons, but specifically, it makes me think of The Burning Crusade and just like KOFT was about The Lich King and Icecrown Citadel this could have been about Illidan Stormrage and The Black Temple where he resides in Outworld.
3. The gears are very mech like, but it also makes me think of the forges from the Catclysm expansion where they forged the metal plated armor for Deathwing. If not that then it could have been about those war machines used by The Iron Horde and expansion based around Warlords of Draenor would be very interestig to me.

So basically, you can discover a Gorehowl but give your opponent 7 armor and your opponent can discover a Fiery War Axe and only give you 3 armor.

Good stats, good effect for late game, and they reused the old art for Omega Defender which I was sad they changed. I'm digging this new card.

Oh look, it's the exact same broken aggro decks... but faster.
