So I thought it would be fun to guess about the new card that gets revealed on Monday. It's an epic class spell card for either Shaman or Druid. I'm not sure if this counts as spoilers or not, so I threw in some lines to stop people who want to go in blind. I'll remove this post if people want me to.
Shaman Card;
My guess is this card is going to be based of the ability Ascendance, where the Shaman transforms temporarily for huge benefits to their spec. It's pretty obvious it's based off this because you turn into one of these guys:
However, it does depend on your spec, and the card shows a water Ascendant, which is used for healing, which may or may not be what the card is actually used for.
That being said, I was thinking it'd be awesome the card had this or a similar effect:
Water Ascendance 6 Mana Cost
Consume your Overloaded Mana Crystals. Gain 2 Health for each Crystal consumed.
So, I'm not sure how this would actually work out balance wise, but I'd think it's be cool to have another card that can work with overload cards. It's the same cost as say, Holy Fire, but can heal more with the proper set up. Maybe it'd be better being cheaper however since healing is something Shamans could use. Have to be careful though, Overload is supposed to be a drawback, can't have it be too strong.
Druid Card;
This is one of the cards who's artwork was leaked, and people are sure it's a Tree of Life. There are kinds of two 'Tree of Life,' things in Warcraft;
There's this dude who was a building in Warcraft.
But there is also these, another transformation cool down for Druids in WoW. They just increase the Druid's healing abilities.
Now, since this is a spell, it could be based around Healing of some sort. If they both are, it would kind of make sense to show them both off at the same time. In the beginning of this whole thing, when Illuminator was revealed, both art on the featured cards showed minions in Priest gear, which could mean they both do healing, so it's possible these cards share similar effects. They both feature transformation abilities in WoW. Anyway, I'm not really sure what this could be and I don't play Druid that much. All I know is the idea behind druid is 'Choose One,' so here is my best guess;
Tree of Life 8 Mana Cost
Choose One: Heal a Minion to Full or heal all Friendly Minions for 2. For every minion healed to full health, draw a card.
Before people get worked up about this, I know Druids already have awesome Ancient of Lore for card draw. Again, I'm not thinking balance here, just trying to think up of cool abilities. What mainly appeared in my mind was Lay on Hands, another high cost Epic healing spell that also draws cards.
So, does anyone else want to guess / speculate what the next cards could be? We have two days to guess! I think it could be fun to see who ends up getting the closest guess. Also, not sure if this really long post is annoying or if speculating isn't allowed, so I can remove this if people want me to, just having some fun.
