Rat Pack is the friend of Houndmasters everywhere. Opponent will have to kill it asap. And that's pretty inconvenient for the opponent, since it doesn't actually weaken the Hunter's board.

The card seems pretty top tier honestly.

Ye Rat Pack looks super strong. Big Houndmaster buff, hard to clear everything on turn 3.

At 5 mana with that effect and stats, Knuckles is not terrible. Maybe not an auto-include, but it is not a garbage card.

Don Han'cho feels like a win-more card for me. Buffing just about any late-game threat win Don Han'Cho just feels like a win-more situation for me. However, Don Han'Cho + Grommash /w activator is 15 damage

Not sure what to think about Knuckles, on the first sight you wouldn't play this over lets say Stranglethorn Tiger, then again it does hit both minion and Face, so when hes buffed into 4-8 or even 5-9 he indeed becomes a scary threat at turn 5.

It is slow, but Dispatch Kodo is supposedly there to make space for this thing.

SMOrc Why would hunters want a 5 mana 3/7 vanilla minion? SMOrc

Hunters need a way to deal face damage with a minion while taunt was on the board :p

This expansion looks like such a massive buff to everything with charge - so many ways to buff cards in hand.

You can't target which card in hand is getting a buff by any of these cards, so this is more luck based play imho. All the minions that buff other minions in hand wont see play in high-end decks, simply because the effect will be to slow for the meta.
Maybe few really good ones that will get a spot in some C'tun decks, other than that i can't see it happening.

New legendary revealed by Disguised Toast. This is interesting, can be useful in control deck.

Innervate Coin Turn 3 Y'Shaarj O_o

Swap in Silvanas when needed...

Trade, then swap your injured minion for Soggoth to stop any aggro early enough...

The possibilities seem almost endless. Pretty huge for control if this is legit.

You don't get to pick the minion, it's random like Y'Shaarj, Barnes and Deathlord. And given that, I have no idea what deck really makes it good.

I could it see it working in a druid list with a bunch of ramp and living roots and you just swap out one of those tokens, probably not gonna be really good but i'll definitely try it out when/if I open her

Did they forget the print random on the card?

Effects like that have always been random. As a rule, for any effect that would require multiple layers of UI or decision-making, elements are randomized until only 1 target needs to be made. So the implication from this pattern is that summon-from-deck effects will always be random.

Here's Goya for any who missed it. I personally think she's terrifying. Let's hope she isn't consistently playable.

Also, new Paladin Murloc:

Goya's best use would be in a control deck featuring big dues, but also tokens. You want a cheap creature to switch for a bigger one, but you don't want cheap creatures in your deck you may pull out with her.

Paladin seems like the best candidate for his hero power and muster for battle (even if the latter isn't usually played in pala control).

Druid may also be a good option, with cards such as Living Roots, especially in a ramp list already running a lot of big dudes: goya would be a good alternative for when you've missed drawing your ramp.
