It doesn't really matter in that case, turn 10 control warriors aren't exactly going for tempo. And holding on to this card until turn 10 just to combo it would not be worth it.
Pit Croc has synergy with the new hunter card that discounts the cost of a beast in hand by 5, it's battlecry also becomes a pyroblast with Corrupt the Waters, I wouldn't write it off so quickly with that battlecry.
Because Warlock's hero power carries their class. It's so OP, everything they do needs to suck a little bit. I mean, why do you think Zoolock has been around in almost every meta?
Hunter has no draw in classic except for Flare and Starving Buzzard which both SUCK. Also, their payoffs are greater in Houndmaster than Warlocks... uhh... the +2/+2 to a friendly demon spell?
Hey, Trump! You can use body wrapper in wild zerek's cloning galery priest: Summon Malygos from your deck, let it die (who doesn't kill a Malygos?), then summon TWO Malygos with cloning galery!
Pit Crokolisk will probably find a home in Battlecry Shaman as an 8 mana Pyroblast to face that also summons a 5/5, as that 5 damage is not limited to minions
Dammit Shadybunny said the Hyena Alpha looks like Kripp and now I can't unsee it D: especially with all the Rania's great photoshopping of his face everywhere :DD
Pit Crokolisk with a new shaman quest is basically a pyroblast for 8 that comes with a 5/6 body, so pretty sure it will see some play at least in quest shaman deck.
Scootaloo Dash your hero power to double Battlecry costs 2 so it is actually just a normal 10 mana pyroblast with a 5/6 body. still might be good though.
Hmm... The thing is, unlike a certain kill combo, you can't build your deck entirely around it. Meaning that you have to include it into another deck as some sort of package. And since you have to draw the three cards before youcan use them, I feel like it's too slow. As I said, if that dealt 30 damage you could just build your deck with only draw and sustain in order to get to your combo fast enough, but that won't work if the opponent doesn't die, so it's likely that you'll simply lose because you had to draw two dead cards before being able to use your combo.
@@lhumanoideerrantdesinterne8598 I guess, I had thought the high splash-ability might be a bonus. Maybe theres a deck out there somewhere with a decent ammount of draw that could use a quick and easy win con
4:55 Technically you could attack 5 times if you overkill 4 times and equip a cheap weapon and if you have a sul'thraze at the beginning of the turn then potentially 9 attacks in a turn. Check out this epic finish i had with 1 hp left thinking i lost, i discovered this mechanic and did 25 weapon damage in one turn th-cam.com/video/0AjGNXP0vZM/w-d-xo.html . I haven't seen anyone mentioning this interaction, so i wonder if anyone else has used this mechanic.
Huynh Gia Thuy actually minions can summon other minions (soul of the forest effect for example) so it actually maxes out at 9 (both sul’thtaze and one more attack)
@@dragonlogos1 yes i was going to say the same thing but i didnt want to make the post longer than it already was :) has anyone actually tried this? it was a complete shock to me in my game i linked to in my first comment (as you can hear from my reaction LOL)
this set seems like one of the more fun better sets in a looooooong time. but also i feel like some deg overpowered deck everyone plays is gona happen too to block my fun of random fun cards
Pit crocolisk worsens the 8 bucket, which is historically one of the best to hit. Conversely, for the price it has a good battlecry, and there's more rationale to hit with calling. Mostly it'll make the 8 bucket worse.
Resurect efect say "ressurect a friendly minion" not "a copy ofa friendly minion" and yet you can res the same minon multiple times, so I guess Body Wrapper doesn't.
I've not played since Boomsday despite getting in really early and having played almost every single expansion before that, and i've play beyond my fair share of HS. I left because i just got so tired of bullshit rng, stale gameplay and most of all, the way monetization was handled, as a f2p player i grinded every quest and brawl, was super stingy with dust and really tried to manage resources (i could never make "good" meme decks for fun, because of my limited resources). The new expansion and the potential decks looks really fun and i would love to get back into the game, but knowing that if i reinstall it, it will be a constant grind, not just for the new cards but also for the old cards that i have now missed unless im willing to shell out the equivalent of a AAA game for something that will soon become close to worthless. I hope the people exited for this expansion will have fun with it, but i will not be coming back to hearthstone until they both make it easier to get back into and more F2P friendly.
... Waaaait... History Buff + Lackey Package + Spirit of the Bat = Finally the time for Hir'eek, the Bat to shine? I mean, I'm no deck building expert (obviously), but aren't we approaching a critical mass of Hir'eek sinergy cards?
You still need to draw an 8 mana card near the beginning of your game and play it knowing full well it does not have any defensive capability at all. If hireek just had rush it’d be fine, but as it stands, you’ll probably struggle to win with it normally
Me: Discover a class spell is discover but the mystery spell can be ANYTHING it can even be a flamestrike Disguised Toast: Then just pick the aoe choice Me: ILL TAKE THE MYSTERY SPELL
Body Wrapper into disrupted win condition? You can gamble a second chance at a game for Mecha'Thun or Elysiana. People will be confused when a disrupted deck doesn't immediately concede.
Body Wrapper is yet another buff to ress priest in wild, I really hope with Shaman getting a massive game changer vs them that they just go away. Wild is easily far more balanced than standard aside from 2 decks (Big priest and quest mage) beating the shit out of everyone that doesn't counter build them
Simple Cyndaquil you can’t balance a card game over that many expansions. it is impossible. it will always devolve into what wild is now *every time*. That is why Yu-Gi-Oh has a ban list a mile long and still an absolute degenerate fuck hole that they had to complete change the rules for recently to make it even semi playable. Magic also uses formats for this reason and their extended format are just as bad The most blizzard could do is add another game mode that lets you do one of two things 1. choose a standard set to play in (like just year of the kraken, or Mammoth) Or 2. do what they do in arena and rotate active sets on off but in a constructed format. “Wild” will never be balanced

That pun at 6:01 was magnificent.
Definitely a more subtle one
Playing Masters Call in Secret Hunter? Doesn’t that mean that then you’re not running Secret Keeper, Sunreaver Spy, or Zilliax?
Looking forward to trying Body Wrapper in my Wild C'thun deck. Yes, I'm one of those people
I'm really feeling Highlander Value Hunter. A lot of the new cards give you a card or more on play.
you mention the discount of dwarven archeologist synergy with crystalsong portal, but not with Omega assembly? thats much more likely!
That's exactly what I was thinking
It doesn't really matter in that case, turn 10 control warriors aren't exactly going for tempo. And holding on to this card until turn 10 just to combo it would not be worth it.
Delivery Drone also gets hit pretty often but would warrior have the room to put one or two in their decklist?
Scoundrel is definitely going in my Gambler deck in wild. Along with box.
So you could say Vulpera Scoundrel has a... surprise mechanic?
me like deal damage to enemy hero, me not have think. think hurt brain.

Pit Croc has synergy with the new hunter card that discounts the cost of a beast in hand by 5, it's battlecry also becomes a pyroblast with Corrupt the Waters, I wouldn't write it off so quickly with that battlecry.

Because Warlock's hero power carries their class. It's so OP, everything they do needs to suck a little bit. I mean, why do you think Zoolock has been around in almost every meta?

Pit croc is a pyroblast in shaman with abody in a deck that has multiple other fireball minions and lackies
Thank you trump for the amazing tempo Me and my buddy getting hyped for your videos and this day was a special treat! :)
really happy that we got a bunch of generic value cards for all the highlander decks, looking forward to those again.
The Naga Sand Witch edit nearly made me choke on my food
I was expectorating more people to have pointed this out
Pit Crokolisk will probably find a home in Battlecry Shaman as an 8 mana Pyroblast to face that also summons a 5/5, as that 5 damage is not limited to minions
Hopefully this time all the reviews will come out before the expansion hits!
5:44 I wonder if the dwarf archaeologist would be good for warrior, with both omega assembly and delivery drone.
Eh you don't really need discount in warrior
That sandwich joke is overused on reddit but it's really something different when Jens does it
That's because reddit has no subtlety
having a joke be quick and not linger adds to its effectiveness
Not everyone is on Reddit, and who is Jens?
I feel like Ramkahen Wildtamer might be run just because it does part of what Master's Call does while retaining good tempo.
Dammit Shadybunny said the Hyena Alpha looks like Kripp and now I can't unsee it D: especially with all the Rania's great photoshopping of his face everywhere :DD
Im ready for going second hunter meta, Secret hunter with a secret turn two and coining out the hyena turn 3
Ah, yes, sand witches being sandwiches, the joke that never left my head since the first time I found one in Corruption of Champions a few years back.
I like that many people thought Maexxna is crazy when NAXX came out.

Jens could go for naga IN sandwich to make it even funnier, but still quite a strong one. Keep the great work up
2 Dwarven Archeologist and just Shadow Visions is a 4 mana infinite combo. It doesn't do anything but it sure is cool.
I haven't been this excited for an expansion since Un'goro.
It's good to see paladins got all those *reborn* cards for their quest.
3:50 LOL I didn't see the pun until Trump made that joke
The better 3 drop in Secret Hunter on curve is Masked Contender, not Animal Companion.
The sand witch killed me
History Buff is a damn good pun. I love it.
1:23 did Trump just call that card "Ramkahen LoLtamer"?
Vulpera Scoundrel "Discover a spell or A pick A mystery choice" Hopefully they'll fix that typo soon.
It's the Mario translation.
"It's a me, a Mario. A pick a mystery choice!"
Cian Wescott I think that’s the editors fault, the actual card is spelt right
@@jamesvereker4638 I went to the hearthstone website and the card is still not correct.

the scorpid card... idk if the 9 mana summon a 1 2 3 attack minion is still in rotation but would work with that if it is
It rotated with rise of shadows
Since Archivist Elysiana discovers all the cards in your deck you could get a juicy total 10 mana discount if you have the coin ^^
9+2 = 11

You missed Kobold Sandtroopers potential in Zoo Priest with all the Reborn and revive mechanics. I'd be surprised if it doesn't make the cut
the issue is that while its deathrattle is alright to resurrect, it's still just a 2 mana card, so you'd really rather be getting something bigger.

Does body wrapper takes out minions from dead pool? Cuz it says shuffle "it", not a copy of.

btw, that's one card that can make 3 mana 3/1 with deathrattle: draw 2 1-health minions better. In aggro paladin
Let’s be real, Kobold Sandtrooper is just a rebalanced pre-nerf Leper Gnome.
