A solid card for any Aggro, Midrange and even Budget friendly deck. It will shine mostly versus opposing Control strategies from making weak AoE spells awkward and allowing you to better play around them. I am a hudge advocate for powerful cards that are also budget friendly and look forward to testing Grimestreet Outfitter come December 1st.

As a Hunter player, one of my favorite cards is Rat Pack! It comes in as a cheaper Infested Wolf and can benefit greatly from the Grimy Goons mechanic, buffing cards in hand. The card is already pretty good on its own so it doesn't rely on this to work properly. I will definitely use it in my Midrange Beast Hunter and give a chance to the mechanic. Here is the first thing i'll try with this archetype.

When playing Arena I love drafting common cards that have a big board impact, and this one definitely fits the bill! Any card that can potentially clear the board and kill your opponent all at once deserves your attention. With this expansion Warlock got several good pieces of removal and solid minions that will make it a class to be reckoned with.

Finally! An expansion on Stealth mechanics in Hearthstone. I'm a big fan of old mechanics being brought forward and improved with new cards, so seeing Stealth get its turn is great for me. It also helps that I used to go by ShadowSensei online.

Fight Promoter stood out as a fantastic card to me. It is not bad on it's own, but when you consider the fact it also triggers itself when buffed in-hand, well, that's pretty damn good! I anticipate seeing it frequently in Goon decks, but i love that it's neutral for use in any other deck as well. The first deck i play will be Jade Druid. Mostly because i will thoroughly enjoy Jade Idol, but also to employ Fight Promoter as an additional card draw engine to keep the idols pumping. There will be salt. There will be golems.....In the Mean Streets of Gadgetzan!

Yogg-Saron was given a 47 when the Old Gods compendium came out. It should be interesting to see how things turn out this time.
Nice :)
Something like this should have existed for all expansions before :D
Looking forward to play around with new decks!!
probably because it having stealth makes it suck a little bit less than a regular rager.. :D
Shadow Rager is not that bad. It's really just a 3 mana version of Twisted Worgen for rogues/jade lotus only. I really like the card tbh. Sometimes it's just the cool thing to "bash the rager card" of each expansion, right? No way one of them could end up being somewhat viable. Absurd!
I used to play magma and ice ragers in brawl that had dorothee. Haste is what ragers miss i think. They could be like spark trooper/spark elemental from mtg, those have x/1 stats and die (are sacrificed) at the end of turn. Basically, a Power Overwhelming attached to a haste creature. It could be balanced i guess, so they are actually playable.
Stealth is fine too.
I'm pretty damn sure that Aya Blackpaw is going to be the best card of the expansion, by a very long shot.
If you play just 4 Jade Golems before her you're looking at a total of 30 stats packed in 1 card for just 6 mana. Which Druids can probably pull off pretty reliably as early as turn 6. That's even better than Dr. Boom...
This is on my must have list for sure. If i don't pull one from a pack, it will be the first card i craft.
It's seems as you forgot shadow rager. Too bad everyone voted it as meta defining so you couldn't get the actual data.
It was probably because Shadow Rager got 100, and the chart can only support 2 digits
I'm not as hyped for this expansion as I was when I saw the Whispers of the old gods expansion. But I must say that I totally agree with Sparkaz on that Rat Pack card. I've been in lvoe with hunter ever since Hearthstone launched and I honestly think this is one of the best cards of the entire set and hell it might actually be one of the best hunter class cards to be released yet. Though I'm still hoping there is some chance that we will finally get a DRAGON class card for hunters.
What "statistics" do you see? There's ratings for each card, made from an average of ratings submitted by users.
So.... a statistic.
Thank you for putting this together. It looks fantastic!
This is AMAZING!
HOW DID KNUCKLES GET MORE THAN WICKERFLAME?!
Cuz it SMOrc's always.
