Four more cards have been revealed at Hearthstone . They will find their way into the game with the expansion “Goblins vs Gnomes” in December. This time, there are mainly cards that directly affect Deathrattle decks.
And again, 24 hours have passed and four new cards are known: This time there are class cards for Warlock, Paladin, and Hunter, as well as a minion for everyone. Especially the Deathrattle decks might not be too happy to see two of the cards presented here. These decks are currently built around cards like the Gravekeeper and are known to provide a lot of “value” (i.e. impact per mana point). Some effective Hunter decks might suffer because of this. But since the Hunter seems to be intended as a Deathrattle class, they are getting another card today that strengthens Deathrattle decks.
Deathrattle decks will hate these two cards
The Paladin receives a “Scarlet Purifier“, a 3-mana minion with 4/3 stats. The special thing about it: As a Battlecry, it deals 2 damage to all minions that have a “Deathrattle” effect.
And as a neutral minion with an offer: The “Lil’ Exorcist“, a 3-mana minion with stats of 2/3 and Taunt. It gains +1/+1 for each opponent that has a Deathrattle effect. Essentially the anti-Gravekeeper.
Class card for Hunter and Warlock
The Hunter gets a Pro-Rattle card. A two-mana spell “Feign Death” that triggers all Deathrattle effects on your own minions. This allows for some special effects to be possible. Especially in combination with cards like Sylvanas or Cairne Bloodhoof, it can provide real “value.”
The Warlock can look forward to a new spell that should be quite familiar to all Warlocks. “Felheart” costs 5 mana and deals 5 damage to an opponent. However, if the spell is cast on a friendly demon, it receives a buff of +5/+5. The spell already exists in a smaller version called “Demonfire”, where you can simply replace each 5 with a 2.
