Summon all 4 or all 4 on board? Cause if you weren't able to remove a 2/2 for 3 turns on 10 mana you probably weren't winning anyway.

 

Yeah, you need to have all 4 horsemen up on the board at the same time to win. It's basically the Exodia of Hearthstone.

It's fairly unlikely you'll ever win through that effect, but like @Hugplx said, forcing your opponent to spend one or more cards every turn removing a 2/2 minion you don't even have to use a card to spawn is massively powerful. It's a thoroughly broken setup for a control deck, especially in control vs control, but that seems to be the overall theme for this expansion, so who the fuck knows how the meta's gonna shake out.

 

The 5/3 lifesteal weapon ain't bad either.

The reveal stream is tomorrow morning @ 11 am p.d.t.

We will see the Warrior and Warlock Death Knights since they are the only classes left.

 

The Four Horseman?!? It's not possible! No ones ever been able to call them!

 

So The Lich King is a more powerful Ysera. and Brian Kibbler burned the Warlock Death Knight lul.

*EDIT*

Stonehill Defender can discover TLK.

 

I'm not so sure. Ysera is way harder to kill...but those spells... You'll rarely discover him from SHD too, no class bonus like Tirion.

I love Doomerang btw. It and shadowblade together are a potent board control combo.

Which is all your favourite DK? We're getting one free from the prologue, so which do you hope to get?

Mine's Valeera, obviously, being a Rogue nut, but I hope I get Jaina (because I'm instant crafting gold Valeera, lol).

 

My favorite are Uther, Anduin & Gul'dan.

The downside of getting any of those 3 would be that I will be very tempted to craft several class legendaries that could pair up with the DKs.

 

Anduin or Uther, thank you very much. I'd feel miffed about Jaina - I'm very not sold on her.

 

Yeah, everyone knows Jaina's actually a Dreadlord, not a Death Knight.

#wowjokes

 

While I think you can slip her into any deck, elementals have great card generation. Will be fun to play the first truly different mage deck since Mech Mage (I consider secret mage basically burn mage).

Btw this made me lol:

 

#garroshdidnothingwrong?

Also, Arfus had me in stitches.

Funnily, there's a Death Knight card called Obliterate. (Yes, it's a WoW DK skill. Let me have this.)

 

I'm team Jaina, wanna fight you hippy Bastards?!

 

Come at me bro. I've got another one of these tucked away somewhere.

 

I mean, I think FL Jaina is better?

 

I'm happy to have more cards affecting board positioning.

 

So I'm doing what I always do a couple of days before an expansion - fucking around in deck builders.

Figuring everyone will be playing super heavy decks for fun, I thought I'd try a tempo Water Rogue/Burgle deck and see how it goes while also testing a new, fun interaction.

The idea being to get on the board early, control with the plague doc and knife juggler combo and tempo out with burgled cards and Water package.

Obsidian Shard is the finisher, which is making me wonder if I should just play Deadly Poisons instead of Eviscerates for the extra reach.

Should be fun!

 

I'll be running Quest druid with a bunch of taunts on launch.

I have hope it'll actually be good.

 

It all depends on what I get from my packs, but I'll probably muddle along with a Taunt/Control Paladin, ending on Tirion, Arthas, and possibly DK Uther, with all the usual shenanigans below that.

 

By the way, how many of you guys got the 2000 dust apology for the bug?

 

I didn't which means I must have not opened packs during the affected time period.

Patch 9.0 is live now. Apparently we are getting a total of up to 9 KFT packs - the 3 arena rewards the past 3 weeks, 3 packs for completing mission sections and 3 packs for the launch event.

Arena rewards have changed as bags will no longer contain single non-golden commons. Draft change is the 1st 2 sets of cards in a draft are now more likely to include synergy-based cards.
