I wouldn't be surprised to see a powerful new priest deathrattle minion either since they're losing cultist and deathlord for standard which is a pretty big blow to Museum Curator and I assume blizzard wants to prevent that given how weak priest already is in the grand scheme of things. Also do we know how it will interact with buffs? Will it copy them like faceless if so will the stats still be changed to 1/1 before or after adding the buff effect, and can the 1/1 stats be silenced off to restore the original stats if so the 1/1s become very annoying for the opponent to deal with because assuming you copy something like cultist they either give you the +3 buff or a 3/4 and waste a silence neither of which feel good. | ||

Also, a 6-mana play to handle a 4-mana play is way on the back foot as far as tempo is concerned. Far better to ping, trade a 2-drop, and play another 2-drop. | ||

http://www.gosugamers.net/hearthstone/news/34852-gosugamers-exclusive-old-gods-card-reveal-doom DOOM! 10 Mana Destroy all minions. Draw a card for each. Too bad it is for warlock the only class that do not need good board removal nor card draw. Such a missed opportunity: I would probably be over hyped over such an awesome card it is it if it was any other class. But for warlock I do not think it would see play. Too slow to counter aggro and card draw is detrimental for warlock in control vs control matchup anyway. | ||

But I really don't dig this idea of build a deck around a God. The other Gods might change my mind, but C'thun is just MEH. I even find useless joust or inspire cards more interesting than *this card was printed to buff C'thun, move along*. So far they revealed two legendaries I think, none of them are that good that I'd be happy to get them for free from a lucky pack, and if in the end we'll only have around 2-3 viable/really good legendaries (not counting the Gods, which you may or may not like), then I can just craft those. All in all, I'm happy that Blizzard is umping new blood into HS and I'm sure I'll be entertained with it for a while, but a.) I don't find this expansion pre-order worthy (talking about the God-synergy) and b.) I hope the enxt expansion/adventure will be released by mid summer, because it could be GODawful (hehe) if we had to see the same C'thun vs. Cthun decks till August, or worse. Though I have faith that the other Gods will work entirely differently than C'thun. | ||

Even if TGT turned out to be an overall flop in quality, I still enjoyed those cards, and at the very least in Arena most of them were even viable to some extent or more.

I think the other 3 god cards (saying god cards gets me hyped cause of YuGiOh) are going to be in a completely different style. So if theres 134 cards and 17 cards are C'thun related, you still have 117 other cards. I'm personally really excited to see more of the corrupted card versions. | ||

The only interesting cards so far are the "spend all your mana" spells. I'm actually excited for Corrupted Healbot. As a person the plays a lot of grindy control decks, I don't mind the deathrattle. With the 6/6 stats it eats a lot of 4 and 5 drops like nobody's business. It seems like it could be pretty good in Ramp Druid (which a lot of people might play if combo gets nerfed) or Control/Reno Warrior.The flavor of those cards is also really fun, especially Validated Doomsayer. I know they haven't revealed anything crazy OP or meta defining yet (except maybe C'thun), but I'm reserving judgement. I don't trust Blizzard to always make balanced cards, but I do believe they can make fun cards/interactions. I'm a huge fan of LoE, especially Reno and the discover cards. | ||
