Those "corrupted" card are not really interesting to see, it feels like they are lacking severe inspiration to make new cards....
You think? I kinda like it, honestly, it's not creative, but I think it's interesting and fun somehow..
They may have painted themselves into a design corner. With so much removal in the game any large powerful card just becomes a target. Only cheap cards become useful since your opponent will have to think hard before using his removal rather than saving it. But the big killer cards are automatic removes.
The solution would be a new mechanic that can protect a card for at least a turn. But Blizzard, true to form, strives to avoid adding complexity.
I hope another legendaries will be more useful T.T
So, another piece of crap for the epic slot on Hunter and a worse version of troggzor.
and every other card shown until now was garbage non-original downgrades or worse versions of already existing cards.
Clearly no Dr. 8 since it has no immediate impact and can be removed with single target spells. I think it will be just like Foe Reaper - really cool card that sadly is too slow. I'd be happy if I'm wrong, I like the concept.
EVERYONE... *SNORT* HAHAAAAAAA~
Looks like Blizzard got inspired in Hearthcards fan made gallery...
With the amount of fan created cards on the internet, there's never any surprise when something they design comes out like something someone randomly made one day. I'm not saying it's a coincidence, actually, no, that's exactly what I'm saying ;p
Amaz made this card for his Monk concept class way way before GvG came out... Does it sound familiar? :)
Of course Blizzard gets some inspiration form the community... it's a free source of ideas.
Hunter Dr. 8 PogChamp
Call Pet Wild Buff ;P
Cards still all seem very underwhelming at this point. But, at least they finally have shown us a card I'd like to try out.... Giant Sandworm could see some action.
The new Hogger reminds me of Grim Patron. However, with its mana cost and effect, it's not guaranteed so I don't think it's as strong as the old Hogger.
That Giant Sandworm though...wow. That might as well be called Dr. 8.
"New" cards..
***In Thor's voice** I like it, show me another!!
