More cards from the Witchwood of Hearthstone have been released. Especially priests can rejoice – their cards allow for dark, new possibilities.
This month, the new Hearthstone expansion “The Witchwood” is set to be released. As usual, Blizzard is releasing more new information and cards for the expansion. Recently, there were a few new cards that priests will surely appreciate. We will show you the new legendary priest minions – but also a few cards for the warrior.
For Priest, they have the eerie legendary The Lady in White. For 6 mana, she has only a value of 5/5, but comes with a powerful battlecry: Cast Inner Fire on every minion in your deck. In plain terms, this means that the attack power of each minion in the deck becomes equal to its health points. Especially large taunt minions, which usually have high health and low attack, will be a powerful threat.
Also for Priest is the new legendary Chameleos. This beast minion for 1 mana has stats of 1/1, but you will likely never play it like that. Because its card text ensures that Chameleos transforms into a random card from the opponent’s hand at the beginning of each turn! This allows you to counter particularly nasty cards. If you don’t play Chameleos, you gain a bit of insight into the opponent’s hand each turn and can adjust your strategy accordingly.
Warriors receive a new weapon, the Woodcutter’s Axe. 2 mana for 2 attack and 2 durability is solid, and the deathrattle effect provides an additional boost, as a random friendly minion with charge receives +2/+1.
The epic spell Deadly Arsenal can make use of the weapons. For 6 mana, a weapon is revealed from the deck and then deals damage to all minions (including your own). Those who know exactly which weapon remains in the deck have one of the most powerful board clears in the game.
As a new legendary minion, Warriors get the Dark Cannon Tower. For 7 mana, it has stats of 3/8 but cannot attack. However, it deals 3 damage to a random enemy every time the cannon tower takes damage. So, if you cleverly distribute the damage – or give the tower taunt – you can gain powerful bonuses from it.
