Bro... They removed the Enrage keyword only... All the minions that had that abillity will still work on a very similar way, but more consistently. That doesnt mean they won't print new minions with those mechanics.
They wanted to fix the problem with enrage, which buffed the attack only on the ocasion that the minion was damaged, making Humillity effects from Paladin, for example, a complete counter against this mechanic... And so they changed for a perma-buff, as long as the minon's life total is below their max.
Humility will still work as a complete counter... It changes the health, ie it is not damaged. What you are saying make no sense
You are thinking of Equality, that would indeed tranform it's life to 1 and negate the mechanic effect
Humillity changes the attack to 1, and then the minion will get the buff ( I.E. the worgen would be a 1/(damaged value) +1 attack and windfury, becoming a 2/(damage value) with windfury minion for as long as it's health count is below 3).
The thing is. in this exact same example I used of the raging wargen... If the keyword enrage was still beeing used, the minion wouldn't get the +1 attack bonus after the debuff from the Humillity-like effect. And with the new text box, the buff is granted all the time, and not just in the instance of the damage it received for the first time, granting the buff even after Peacekeeper comes down.
This is correct. I think everyone just assumed you were thinking of Equality. Humility will still allow a damaged minion to keep its "enrage" buffs as it does not effect the damaged state.
If I had to guess I would put my money on Lord Godfrey being the reveal on 3/27 at 7AM PDT, which would probably one of the Mage legendaries, and I am fairly certain the reveal on 3/28 at 11PM PDT is Darius Crowley, a warrior legendary. I am hoping we see, though he is not listed yet, Packleader Ivar Bloodfang, as a second warrior legendary in the final reveal stream.
Solid body, and enables everything to hit the field and immediately start wresting control of the board. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a worthwhile include to most midrange hunter decks, as well as "controll" hunter decks.
I don't know how well this is going to mesh with existing Lock archetypes, however I remember Bloodbloom making some splashes all on its own back when it launched. And as others have said this with Arcane Tyrant and Bloodbloom could make for some amazing shenanigans.
There are very few cards that I am genuinely excited to snatch that first day, but this is near, if not at the top of the list. Also, I know they have said this is based on a dragon-like mythological creature from the Phillipines, the Bakunawa; however, as a fan of the mythology behind the Japanese Baku, I'm a little sad they used this name instead of just directly ripping of the Phillipines' moon eating dragon.
Also, excited to hear that there's a little special treatment going Shaman's way (exclusive hero card for this expansion). Thrall has needed a shot in the arm for a while now.
Glad you enjoy it! I know what you mean though, the lack of card draw can be tough, maybe sub -1 chaingang, -1 firefly and +2 Acolytes. The Lich King is just a late game value generator, try another end of turn like Ysera, or maybe a board controller like King Mosh or Deathwing.
In a bizarre turn of events this thread has referenced Alex Jones twice now. If we go any deeper into the conspiratorial we'll find ourselves delving into catacombs best left undisturbed.

Those Cardbacks both look stellar.

I was pleasantly surprised, best pack yet! Thanks Blizz!

I'm thinking it was just meant to be heavy-handed sarcasm. Can't say for sure, though.

I would be very happy to see an elemental shaman like this do well on ladder. Thanks for assembling something for all of us to work with! :)

Has anyone else noticed that the failed reveal features what appears to be a "troll"? Is this a coincidence or something deeper?

The Marsh Queen is the quest in question, it rewards you with Queen Carnassa

That's the thing though, why would they cater to the F2P audience? Think about it from their perspective.
