I like my version of the card way better.

Considering the card says, '..this minion attacks,' hitting with a weapon won't give the Rogue a coin. Think Foe Reaver. Which is really sad because it's a cool card but it's just not going to live.
Who knows though, glad to see it exist at the very least.

Look at Mana Wyrm, when played turn 1 it almost always goes 1:1 (trading up, to as much as killing a 4 or 5 drop), or possibly can win a game in combination with a bunch of really strong spells / other cards. This is a 2/1 that can be played on turn 1 with a coin which would die to most anything after that. So you're trading it for a coin and doing 2-4 damage, but losing a card as it probably won't trade against another card.
Mana Wyrm works a lot harder imo, and would be a stronger card than this would even be if it were a 2/1 charge.
To make it 3 mana and stealth sounds pretty weak, you could probably leave it at 2 mana and make it 2/2 stealth with the coin ability (after all if you hit face to trigger it, you're not doing any trading and your opponent will likely get a 2:1 out of a minion they have on the board). Even then it'll still get beaten by Mage pretty easy, before even attacking while they buff their Mana Wyrm.

is Arcane Golem a terrible card?
Unless you are playing face hunter (and maybe some kind of combo deck),yes.
Even face hunter don't summon him as long as they have any other decent option.
Not if used in hyper aggressive decks where the goal is to kill them by turn 6 or before. I use it in a version of zoolock with Faceless just in case I need surprise 16 dmg burst. Also use it in Eboladin. It's common in many aggressive decks.

You are right, I misunderstood.
If you're thinking about dusting, don't. It's a fantastic finisher in aggro decks and sees a lot of play in constructed. I run 2 in my Face Hunter, usually as finishers.
You pretty much never play it T3 though.It's great at T5 when you're close to lethal or T7, since you can hero power and play a Quickshot or something else.

I just opened two legendaries! Milhouse Manastorm and Nozdormu. They are both trash, aren't they?
Not really,since the card is most likely not going to survive,which means it's just a 2/2 for 2.
You are better of playing Defias Ringleader if you really want a 2 drop.
Yeah. Nozdormu could be fun in certain decks or for some brawls,but if you still need other cards,you should dust both of them.
yes. enjoy your 800 dust.

Warlock card from voting.
People never learn it seems. The best use of this is having a warsong commander, playing Piloted Skygolem, and having this drop from the Skygolem, making for infinite 1/1s charge for trading.
What really confuses me is that when the expanstion was annonced it looked like TGT is supposed to be a tribal expansion,but we have barely seen support for ... well anything but totems.
I really hope that they are saving them to reveal them all at once or something like that.

This + Anima golem is the dream I guess.
4 mana 1/1 with Deathrattle to resummon itself? No thanks.
Pay 1 more mana and you get Grim Patron which is easier to replicate, and has many more stats and can be used by any class. This card seems completely awful.

This plus Anima Golem is the only combo I could think of, but Anima Golem is still a 9-9 that gets BGH asap.
That warrior legendary looks beastly but let's reveal both!
With taunt it might be too strong. It would REQUIRE a silence or you basically lose the game.
I think this kind of card with these stats as a 2 mana card might be playable. But with taunt it might be crazy good.
Class legendaries, nice.
I was thinking that even at 10 mana, 1/1 with taunt and that deathrattle is too strong. If your deck does not have silence, is that game basically over? Because I think it might be. You basically only have reach from that point on.
Yes, exactly what I wanted to see! I'm not sure who is the mage guy.
edit: warlock cards are all trolls this set lol
Hope he has a unique interaction with his son, Anduin.
It's hard to imagine them making Varian Wrynn a low end drop.
Mage card is Rhonin for people who don't know.

Yep. He's being made in gold.
Is he important or something? I was one of those WoW players who skipped over every piece of lore because I found it so puerile and boring.
Not that Warlock needs anymore good stuff, but I can't think of the situations where you'd spend 4 mana for a 1/1. Grim Patron will also thank you for having a 1/1 on the board. Then what 4 drops do you remove from your deck to fit that card in?
Maybe there's some Dreadsteed meta we don't know about yet, but lots of these cards introduced so far would be playable with a 1 stat adjustment, instead of being complete trash.
The Mage and Warrior legendaries look really good. Can't wait for their reveals.

He is the leader of the human race/Alliance.
The warlock card is really powerful but slow. In a slow deck if you play this on turn 4 and the game goes for 10 more turns, then this was 4 mana deal 10 damage distributed via pings. It's sort of like a sword of justice or shadow form where you lose tempo but gradually regain it every turn afterwards. The nice thing about this compared to something like shadow form is that you don't have to invest further mana into it.
Probably not viable in the current meta but in a slower one this is a quite powerful value card.

I thought the leader of the humans was a child? When I visited stormwind, there was a child on the throne. Is that anduin? Why is Anduin now a grown up priest?
