Gadgetzan Flavor Text

All the flavor text of the new cards can be found below!

Quote from HearthPwn

  • Street Trickster - His first trick: making your wallet disappear!
  • Red Mana Wyrm - It has double the Attack. "Go on." And double the Health. "Yes??" And its trigger has twice the effect. "WHAT???" And it costs… Five times more.
  • Jinyu Waterspeaker - Waterspeakers can tell the future! So the Jade Lotus employs them to speculate on the Auction House.
  • Kooky Chemist - #abs
  • Blubber Baron - When oil, railroad, steel, robber, and red are all already taken, your options are limited.
  • Grimestreet Protector - Some new asphalt should do the trick.

  • Freezing Potion - This is delicious! Oh no. BRAIN FREEEEEEEZE!
  • Wind-up Burglebot - Don't blame the bot for his crimes... Blame whoever keeps winding him up!
  • Hidden Cache - There is an urban legend that the first Toxic Sewer Ooze was born because a rookie Goon stashed an open container of milk in a Hidden Cache.
  • Hozen Healer - He didn't go to school for healing, but we keep losing all the good healers to Ratchet, so I guess we'll take him.
  • Public Defender - Happy to defend any public offender!
  • Smuggler's Run - One of the most famous busts in Gadgetzan’s history happened on Smuggler’s Run, where Sergeant Sally apprehended a cadre of Grimy Goons transporting a massive number of illegal fish heads.
  • Jade Idol - Shuffle or no guts.
  • Potion of Madness - You'd be insane NOT to drink it!
  • Greater Healing Potion - Filled with electrolytes!
  • Drakonid Operative - His job is to spy on the Goons and the Jade Lotus, but he's OBVIOUSLY a dragon so it's pretty hard work.
  • Mana Geode - Gadgetzan, where even the pet rocks have pet rocks.
  • Fel Orc Soulfiend - "Doc says the persistent burning sensation in my soul is probably just an ulcer."
  • Crystalweaver - The trick is soaking the crystals in warm milk to soften them up.
  • Bloodfury Potion - You know what really makes my blood boil? The skyrocketing price of Bloodfury potions!
  • Mark of the Lotus - The mark of the Lotus is a little flower drawn in permanent marker on the ankle.
  • Pilfered Power - The Hozen don't get paid much, but at least they get to keep any excess mana.
  • Celestial Dreamer - If you think her job is easy, YOU try falling asleep on cue.
  • Kabal Chemist - Sure you could have that Polymorph potion, but wouldn't you rather have this mystery potion? It could be anything. Even a Polymorph potion!

  • Potion of Polymorph - Tastes like Baaaaananas.
  • Greater Arcane Missiles - Wow, and I thought Arcane Missiles was great!
  • Kun the Forgotten King - Aya siphons a bit of Kun's soul to animate each golem in her Jade army. To his credit, he's being a great sport about it.

  • Alley Armorsmith - The rent is cheap and she passes the savings onto YOU!
  • Meanstreet Marshal - Remember, submit your bribes directly to the Marshal - it's the law!

  • Leatherclad Hogleader - The Hogchoppers, the terrors of Tanaris, can always be found at one tavern or another in Gadgetzan, refueling for totally real and legit adventures that they go on.
  • Lunar Visions - The true mystery of lunar visions is how there is nothing to watch when there are so many channels.

  • Small-Time Recruits - Now we know why they wear tiny watches.
  • Wickerflame Burnbristle - Wickerflame spent years as a recruit for the Goons, never making the big-time because he always fired his chest-cannon too slowly. "Hey," he thought, "maybe if I keep my beard lit on fire, I can do this faster." BOOM, promoted.
  • Virmen Sensei - There is no carrot.
  • Knuckles - When confronted with accusations of performance-enhancing bananas, Knuckles replied, "I get my fruit from trees I knock down with my bare hands like everyone else."

  • Spiked Hogrider - Did you know the Hogchoppers compete every year at the Mirage Raceway? They do. It's a real group.
  • Inkmaster Solia - Solia marks the Kabal with intricate tattoos that grant immense power. Also it makes it harder for other gangs to recruit from their numbers. BACK OFF, GOONS.
