Wailing Caverns Mini Set - New Cards
Blizzard released the first of the new cards for Wailing Caverns. These are it for now, there will be more after the long weekend in the US! (It is Memorial Day on Monday for them, which means we can likely expect more cards no earlier than Tuesday.)

Is it worse? It doesn't have a deathrattle that says it returns to their hand. So it probably just removes them from play. I think it won't be as affective in standard as it will be in wild. Since you can just remove opponents card from their hand. It can be a combo piece. Plus it corruptes tickatus. So will definetly be included in warlock
You know it would have been much better? let mutanus tell the minion with the highest cost because I already see clips of how he eats the 1/2 of warlock or 1/1 of paladin
Which will still be good. You lose a minion/card, you lose it's battlecry and you're still facing a 4/4 + whatever the minion was. It's Dirty Rat/Wild Bloodstringer, but better. Not just pulling, not trading with it, but removing it all together and gaining the stats.
7 mana 5/5 o 5/6 good? nop
Don't make me repeat myself.
A 7 mana 5/6 that removes a card from your opponent's hand is, though.
And you're missing the flip side where he's a 14/14 for 7 that gets rid of your opponent's Y'shaarj
These are just going to encourage an aggro meta more. These are card tutors and draw, which is the current meta's problem, they have too much of it.
Also, what does "Eat" mean? remove from play? return to opponent's hand when killed? Summon for opponent when killed? Send to graveyard?
Eat means like rogue card that eat does
Freeze. Agro. Ok.
I'd say it's the equivalent to Gral, the Shark where you just remove a card and they can't get it back. If they could have it returned to their hand, a death rattle would be present stating that.
shaman was in need of card draw and this new minion helps big time by drawing a spell and an elemental. it won't bring them to tier 1 but it will bring them closer.
Why aren't there any card discussion threads in the forums?
why is the shaman draw 3 mana tho?? shaman have more than enough 3 cost cards and barely no 2 and 4
because all Dungeoneer cards are 3 mana.
All 3 mana cards are on average worse than Venomous Scorpid if not hit bonus effect (priest card is worse as well).
Mutanus - 75% game do nothing, 20% game do something, 5% win the game (but not many OTK now* and for wild is too expensive). If I want to play death card in my deck I will play Nozdormu for achievement.
*actually zero (Warlock have more ways how to win the game - Eat Tickatus or Y'Shaarj but not eat Jaraxxus)
And I expecting that achievement for Mutanus will be "Eat C'Thun, the Shattered. :-)
Mutanus is more like 90% do something, 30% auto win
If you chomp a Liadrin or Y'shaarj you basically win right there. Alex or Troublemaker or Inquisitor or Nzoth are also strong, and a buffed Trampling Rhino is good too
The real mini set is 4 new cards!
3 mana 4/5 worth of stats + draw a card? I can see some freeze mage becoming a thing
Its similar to Nightbane Templar but without the freeze and a controlled outcome. I think it is great for early on control with those freeze elementals.
