Hope DK gets the second Tourist card, - my 2 favorite classes
get access to the worst class of the set!
That's why you should always run Devolve, almost instantly destroys pirate rogues, even Shamans, pirate demon hunters, shadow priest, boar priest, automaton priest, etc. Devolving missiles is now very legit to run, since you can repeat that with the pet parrot. I always run Reno decks, and it's quite easy to stall until you're able to play Reno or Zephrys until you start to overwhelm your opponent. Currently I don't have any issues with aggro at all.
Of course I run evolve, only one copy though. I am not saying Reno shaman is not able to beat those decks. What I am saying is that none of these hunter cards will be able to improve that gameplay. Also because you will have to cut other precious cards. Are any of these better than the cards usually run in Reno shaman? No
Birdwatching is 100% making the cut, so is the location. And I will try pet parrot too since it can repeat devolving missiles. Time will tell when Turbulus comes out how effective they'll be. But honestly with Reno Shaman you can allow these things. I managed to get Legend with Wrathspine Enchanter and Incindius included, without Grumble, Worldshaker. It's just a matter of adaptability to the meta.
I seen an error message that said "you have too many tourists" in the game log, I believe only one tourist a deck.
Turbulus itself looks pretty good in elemental Shaman
Besides that don't see a lot of sinergy in standard with hunter cards other that Trusty Fishing Rod
It can be helpful to get Novice Zapper in decks that need it also if both tourists are possible other option would be to also focus on the DH pirate package and fetch Treasure Distributor
Wow. A snapdragon.
Primarily Wild player here: I think this one is really exciting. For Wild Shaman, I primarily play a value-oriented Reno Shudderwock Battlecry Shaman, Big Shaman, and Evolve Shaman, and this slots comfortably into both Battlecry and Evolve shaman. Perhaps not meta-defining, but gives exciting new options for Wild Shaman decks even just based on the hunter cards we know of. Plus it makes sense, based on the sorta weird battlecry support hunter has been getting this expansion.
Parrot Sanctuary could be good for cheating mana curves a bit in Reno Shaman. Any number of cards in that deck could be life or death to come down just one turn earlier.
Pet Parrot has several possible targets, but in my mind it's a potential evolve duplicator, with an attached body! Not bad at all.
Birdwatching is always good as a way to discover a minion in your deck.
Chatty Macaw would now have access to Shaman's full suite of removal tools to duplicate. Dupe a Lightning Storm, Elemental Destruction, Baking Soda Volcano... A card I definitely see as potentially much more powerful in Shaman than in Hunter, honestly. Plus, as an evolve shaman fan, there's potential there, too.
And finally, Sasquawk. I can't even begin to think of the possibilities here. Sasquawk doesn't activate the battlecries of minions it plays, but it is A battlecry. Played intelligently, I imagine it could have a very comfortable home in Shudderwock Shaman and will lead to some crazy combos and scenarios, and is another Evolve-on-a-stick for Shaman, though the question will be if it is better than Cookie for Evolve Shaman given Cookie is already good for evolve (and if we can't use two tourists at once)
Hey fellow Shudder enjoyer! I did some testing the moment I saw this tourist. Chatty macaw does NOT repeat spells without targets, so there's only a handful of spells you can repeat sadly. Deathroll being the best one in my findings, unless you somehow get a pyroblast from Zephrys, which is possible. Combine both battlecry locations (draw and hunter reduction) with Dorian and birdwatching(it DRAWS the minion, so you get a 1/1) and you can play two potentially big battlecries for 0 mana, since the hunter location opens up after playing the first 1/1 for 0 mana.
Next up, pet parrot is potential to summon Elwynn Boar, devolving missiles, Griftah reduce hand amulet. It's insane. Griftah's reduce hand amulet can completely break the game. Play it once, shudderblock into pet parrot and your hand is reduced by 4 mana. After you play shudder(copy of this, grumble), your hand gets 0 mana shudders to go full APM.
This tourist addition is way way way more powerful than you might expect. I think Sasquak is hard to combine though, I believe if you play evolve, it could be really good. Maybe if you play totemic evidence infused + Wave of nostalgia, and repeat that with sasquak. Or if you go a big deck, play cost reduced Zilliaxes, Moarg Forgefiends, board gets cleared. Double batlecry the sasquak to summon a full board. Play n'zoth later.
To be honest none of these is amazing in Wild shaman apart maybe from evolve which I dont play much. With the fast paced aggro everything you said sounds just too slow and yeah AoE spells are not repeated
Ooooooooo, these are all awesome ideas! And good catch with Chatty Macaw, I unpacked two but haven't ever used them so that slipped past me. But pet parrot is such a great point! I can't wait to annoy my friends with the new and improved Elwynn Boar Shaman
You: The Mistcaller
The guy she tells you to don't be worry about:
I like the card tho. Kinda. Is like a...sligly better Snapdragon , and I play a lot of that card, so I'm good with it. Sligly better because is a class Legendary, that kinda does the same thing that a rare neutral, so the extra buffs in hand and board are nice, but dosn't drives me crazy.
It has the plus of the Tourist Keyword. I said it before, and I'm going to said it again, not in love with that Keyword. But its kinda...sad that some classes arbitrary got more of the main gimmick of the expansion than others. If I had to ask for the other Tourist I would say that it could be for DK, just for the sake of make the whole "Play spells from different schools" archetype not related in just and specifically Shaman cards.
I wasn't expecting more Tourist cards tbh. Will the last legendary be a tourist as well?
Yes. In the initial reveal it said two more Tourists were arriving.
My jaws that bite my claws that catch
Well handbuff shaman might become a thing...some other time, not this expansion
Don't you mean revealed on X? :)
We'll have to see the miniset hunter cards. Right now, PiP hunter cards are ok, but not amazing.
The only one that would make sense so far for this card would be parrot sanctuary. I also wonder if Demon Hunter will get some battle cry cards this set, and the intent is for you to run a double tourist deck.
Who knows. I wish they would just card dump the whole mini set.
