Thanks to Stealth, Validated Doomsayer will make Rogue great again.

Are these cards a piss take?

Didn't someone post a few "new" versions of old cards (Dr. Tentacles) as a joke a few days ago?

Those cards were identical. These are entirely different. Antique healed you, corrupted antique heals enemy.

Doomsayer killed minions, new doomsayer buffs itself.

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Yup, Old God decks will be a thing. Or at least Blizzard will try to make them a thing.

 

[Apathy]

Thought cultist were going to be a new thing

 

[_DrMario_]

Wow that battlecry.

 

[Ladekabel]

C'thun Paladin. Calling it.

Still smacks of a stunning lack of originality and/or creativity.

 

[Apathy]

That c'thun battlecry

 

[Hycran]

Bgh is definitely toast based on cthuns card design

 

[Atram]

I See old god Reno Decks, i like

A couple cards are corrupted versions. It makes sense with the theme. This expansion also brings an entirely new mechanic of old gods. Plus who knows what else so far.

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Wow, C'thun is awesome. Hopefully it's not too slow.

 

[MonorailCat]

looks pretty trashy to me right now.

My prediction:
The old gods won't really work, because you are dead before you can play them.

 

[V-Faction]

Corrupted bots? I thought those were called 'Gnomes'.

 

[Emerson]

Yeah big game hunter has to be completely destroyed or these mechanics are gonna be tough to be viable.

How i said, this will work Fine with Reno Decks

 

[Apathy]

damn, c'thun free

and 3 free packs

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Nice, free packs and legendary.

 

[CelticKnight]

Wow, C'thun is awesome. Hopefully it's not too slow.

C'thun will still be sitting on his tentacles while you die on turn 7, sadly.

 

[_DrMario_]

WTF free packs for everyone.

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Ugh, they're doing the TGT slow drip. Shitty.

Kinda want that card back though.

 

[CoolOff]

Late April/early May is ridiculously late.

 

[_DrMario_]

2 more fucking months is just insane.

 

[Apathy]

Late April/early May is ridiculously late.

Remember how they said they didn't want to announce things early anymore?

 

[V-Faction]

Ugh, they're doing the TGT slow drip. Shitty.

Wait, don't be fooled! It's just a regular Hearthstone cardback with a stupid cheap eyeball! It still embodies all the awful gimmicks it did before!

But it's got a new hat.

 

[Officerrob]

That was MASSIVELY underwhelming

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Obviously still early but I think C'thun will absolutely see play, mostly because the cultist minions that buff it have decent stats. Seems like Blizzard is learning from TGT in that respect.

 

[LyleLanley]

C'thun seems like a fun card that I'll probably never get to actually use.

 

[IceMarker]

Two. Months.

 

[inky]

Gonna skip the 50 packs this time I think. Got only about 2k gold which is not great, but it is what it is.

 

[ricelord]

2 more months of saving more gold.

 

[FiveSix4Three]

I burned up my data at work for that? Pfft.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Anyone got any screens of the cards?

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Anyone got any screens of the cards?

Can view them all here.

[FeD.nL]

So these cultists are only for C'thun who looks like to be the controlling card. I wonder what the Yogg-Saron cultists will have for stat distribution.

 

[Owzers]

i definitely like the free legendary and 3 packs, C'thun seems a lot better than Rafam. Could make for a good reno deck. End of april/early may though.......but ladder has crushed my spirits already.

 

[rukland]

Not having been around for a preorder before can you use gold for it? If so I figure I need to really grind out some more.

 

[Officerrob]

I am dumbfounded that they only showed 6 cards

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Looking at the cinematic again. One of the cards in the beginning is corrupted Hogger.

Nope.

$$$$$$$

Corrupted Kobold too it seems.

 

[Princess Carl]

I can't believe after all the bullshit, they're gonna seriously make it 2 months away.

I mean come on.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

lol at validated doomsayer. He knew it all along

 

[Fireblend]

Nope, cash only. You'll have to open that wallet if you want that cardback

 

[Apathy]

If the late april/early may release is set, they could show off a new god every 2 weeks

 

[manhack]

Late April/early May is ridiculously late.

Yeah I think the switch to Standard/Wild has delayed their release schedule.

 

[Raxus]

Keep in mind you have to invest a lot in C'Thun to make him worthwhile. Even then with no nerf shown for BGH it is kind of an awful card.

 

[rukland]

Well damn, guess I better start trying to justify this expense to the better half.

 

[Apathy]

N'Zoth is going to be seen for the first time in HS. This is going to be what defines what it will look like if/when it ever shows up in WoW.

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Voting on card reveals begins on March 21st.

They also put up the gold animations for all the cards revealed although the images are pretty small.
