Most Badass Card Art for Each Class in Kobolds & Catacombs

Whenever a new expansion comes out, there is inevitably a lot of discussion about which cards are best. This is not that. Instead, this is a round up of the most badass card art featured on the new cards of the latest expansion, Kobolds and Catacombs.

Featured below, we’ve chosen one card from each class (including neutral) that has the most badass card art. Check ‘em out and make sure to let us know in the comments which card has your favorite art this time around!

 Druid - Astral Tiger

Flavor Text: Astral kitty litter is surprisingly hard to find.

I'd hate to be the one changing that litter box. Astral or not, the fangs and claws on this feline are enough to scare away even the heartiest adventurer. 

 Hunter - Crushing Walls

Flavor Text: "It could be worse!" "It's worse."

Looks like she’s got everything under control to me! The golden animation on this card makes it even more badass, showing the crushing walls in motion, with a light shining behind the adventurers.

 Mage - Dragoncaller Alanna

Flavor Text: Her secret is using a gentle voice and carrying a baggie of hotdogs.

Seems legit. However she does it, she's pretty badass. With this card, we've got another amazing golden animation. This one shows the fire in Alanna's hands in motion and the dragon slowly appearing behind her. Sometimes the golden animation is pretty simple, just showing an element of the art in motion, but other times — like this — it's something really special. This is one card that I'd be thrilled to have the golden version of. 

 Paladin - Lynessa Sunsorrow

Flavor Text: A diet of pure magic is great for the complexion but wreaks havoc on one's mood. 

Turns out it's also great for the intimidation factor. I don't know about you guys, but I think she'd make a worthy addition to any party. 

 Priest - Psychic Scream

Flavor Text: Everybody! Hit the deck!

Looks like these guys have had better days. The ghostly skulls attacking them in the art are a nice touch, and the golden version shows the piercing scream in action. 

 Rogue - Evasion

Flavor Text: Works on weapons, missiles, and taxes.

This art is seriously cool already, but it's the golden version that puts it over the top. The invisibility cloak gets an added animation so that it blends in perfectly with the surroundings.

 Shaman - Grumble, Worldshaker

Flavor Text: The grumbling grew to a mighty rumbling, and out of the caverns the kobolds came tumbling. 

Any sane person would seek cover if they saw this creature approaching. And hey, if you can look badass while covered in pink crystals, you've pretty much got it made. 

 Warlock - Hooked Reaver

Flavor Text: The hook is just an accessory. He can reave just fine without it.

Going off the flavor text, remind me not to get on this guy's bad side. 

 Warrior - Reckless Flurry

Flavor Text: Look. Cautious Flurries will only get you so far in life.

That is one angry kobold. This card art proves you shouldn't underestimate the little guy. As a bonus, the shockwave in the golden card animation takes the art up another level.

Neutral - The Darkness

Flavor Text:  I would rather light a single candle than curse the darkness. But I'm willing to do both. 

Yikes. This card also wins the award for "Creature I'd Least Like to Meet Down a Dark Alley. (Or Anywhere Really.)"
