We show you the Death Knight forms of Paladin, Priest, and Druid from the Hearthstone expansion “Knights of the Frozen Throne”.
It won’t be long until the new expansion for Hearthstone, Knights of the Frozen Throne, is finally released. In preparation for the addon, Blizzard is already revealing which cards the game will include. Today, we present you the latest reveals, including the Death Knight heroes for Druid and Paladin!
Malfurion the Pestilent is the new form of the Druid. For 7 mana, Malfurion gains 5 armor and may choose one thing – either he summons 2 spiders that are poisonous, with 1/2 or he calls 2 scarabs with Taunt and values of 1/5. His hero power transforms into Plague Lord. He can choose one: either he gains 3 attack or 3 armor this turn. Thus, he has the right hero power for every occasion!
For Druids, there is also the new minion Druid of the Swarm. For 2 mana, it has stats of 1/2 and has a “Choose One” effect. Either it transforms into a poisonous spider (with stats of 1/2) or it becomes a scarab with Taunt and 1/5.
For 9 mana, Paladins become Uther of the Ebon Blade and gain 5 armor. As a Battlecry, they also get a weapon with 5/3 and Lifesteal! His hero power becomes The Four Horsemen. He summons one of the Horsemen with stats of 2/2. If all 4 Horsemen are in play, the opposing hero is immediately destroyed!
Also for Paladins is the new minion Blackguard. For 6 mana, it has solid stats of 3/9 and a powerful effect. Whenever your hero is healed, Blackguard deals that much damage to a random enemy minion!
Priests set aside the Light and become Shadowreaper Anduin. For 8 mana, they gain 5 armor and destroy all minions with 5 or more attack. The hero power becomes Voidform and deals 2 damage. Whenever the Priest plays a card, the hero power refreshes and can be used again.
A new spell for Priests is Shadow Essence. For 6 mana, you summon a 5/5 copy of a random minion from your deck. Just when this minion has a powerful Deathrattle effect, it can be quite valuable.
What do you think of the three new “Death Knight” heroes? Are they cool and powerful or does one effect feel weaker than another?
