Whoa, both new cards from today not posted? Y'all are slacking.

On one hand, that effect is pretty strong, and it has rattle synergy too. On the other hand, a 4 mana 4/3 isn't great, and this is no Shredder. This has potential depending on the meta, I guess.

Demented Frostcaller

 

"After you cast a spell, freeze a random enemy."

 

This, on the other hand, is straight-up sheet.

Shade is good purely because it's a Priest card that has Deathrattle, so it means Museum Curator can still be a viable 2 drop for Priestyboys. Also it's a strong source of card draw tbh.

 

Demented Frostcaller isn't as bad as people are making it out to be because frozen characters cannot be re-frozen. Yeah it's not going to be AMAZING probably, but it's a potentially incredibly strong stun tool.

It's the rediculousness without the brokeness that is that -3 mana cost. Not really a replacement though, due to not being a spell and not giving huge tempo advantage.

I know it's not as good as Portal, but it does have basically the same effect. I really just wanted to say something vaguely useful beyond calling him adorable, tbh.

 

Anyway, it's confirmed that the nerfs are gonna be revealed along with the rest of the set on Thursday, so that's neat.

The big thing it has over Portal is the fact that you can pick and choose when to summon it so if the game goes long enough you can just wait for a bomb and summon that in the lategame. It seems really good for slow Warlock to get out of Dark Peddler because it's essentially another big drop for the lategame or, if you're lucky, a good curve card. I don't think it'll see play in decklists but we'll definitely see it.

I've seen about an equal number of people saying Rogue will be sheet now, and saying Rogue will be OP now. Interesting.

 

I'm a bit disappointed with the Priest cards overall, but it's not that bad. The C'thun cards seem great, the 4/5 5 healing thing seems good, and I have faith in Forbidden Shaping.

Druid got a few decent tools. Obviously Fandral will see play, both C'thun cards should be good if C'thun is worth playing. Mire Keeper may be played with, I don't know if it's really good. Addled Grizzly may have a home in tokens. Feral Rage is meh, not a "bad" card, but basically comes down to whether Freeze Mage is still intact and T1. Mark of Y'Shaarj is good on paper, but I dont see it working out. Druid epics are terrible, as is tradition.
