I feel a lot of the farstrider package will see play post-rotation, the current early game setup is just too strong in beast hunter
This archetype seems really dumb, honestly.
I'd love to buff explosive trap.
Wait, so the legendary is just another rare?
How is this enabling OTKs? Even in Wild, there's only 2 cards which Hunters can run that are Arcane and can deal face damage.
The only way I can think of this card creating OTKs is Brann Zola shenanigans, in which case that's a free wins deck... for your opponent.
I really should emphasize - the pool of spells this card affects is TINY. 5 spells total, in both Standard and Wild, and 4 of them are being added in this very expansion, and only 2 capable of dealing face damage (Arcane Shot and the unreliable Ricochet Shot.
This card's OTK potential is very much so kept in check. That might change if more Arcane spells are added, but judging from the lack of them being added outside of this exact set, don't get your hopes up.
I really wish the spell damage in this set included nature and fire school spells. I understand why Blizzard is reluctant to print general spell damage, but I don't think the arcane package alone is enough to support it.
What frost and fire spells are you hoping to buff in hunter? Explosive shot and explosive trap?
I was really hopong for more Zombeast cards...
and there it is! another arcane spell damage booster! machinegun hunter 2.0, here we goooooooo!
I was vaguely wondering why Blizz made both the Arcane spell damage increasing cards minions, when there's obvious Brann shenanigans that Hunter might try to pull, but then I remembered Mage is getting Prismatic Elemental and yeah no, on second thought, doing it on minions is a better idea, well done Blizzard. xD
With the amount of Arcane spells that Hunter can use Spell Damage on (literally 4 even in Wild), this card just isn't there yet, neither is the Legendary. With more support, I could see these being played, but as it is, you're playing a 2 mana 2/3 to draw an extra card with Conjured Arrow or summon an extra 4/4 with Eversong Portal.
The archetype is cool, but Hunter needs loads more Arcane spells.
There's the tutor for them. And tracking. It's really super simple to manipulate your hand.
