    i expected more, a little to blank for me.

    1. solaris29

      maybe there is somethig to do with huffer,buff copy etc...

      1. solaris29

        and there is a new frost trap <3

    2. TallJake26

      Lol same.

  2. Axiom11154

    Improved Freezing Trap makes the bounced minion cost 4 more (instead of 2)
    Improved Explosive Trap deals 3 damage (instead of 2)
    Improved Pack Tactics summons two 3/3 copies (instead of one 3/3 copy)
    Improved Open the Cages summons 2 Animal Companions (instead of 1)
    Improved Snake Trap summons 2/2 snakes (instead of 1/1 snakes)

    Improved Ice Trap: when your opponent casts a spell, return it to their hand instead. It costs 2 more

    New secret inadvertently revealed...
    Ice Trap... 2 mana - Secret: when your opponent casts a spell, return it to their hand instead. It costs 1 more

      I wonder about Wild-only secrets from older sets?...

      1. h0lysatan

        Probably used a limited pool of improved spells just like Malygos.
        You won't discover spells outside the pool.

    Pretty lame Hero Card. On par with Rokara, not on par with the other Heroes.

    1. Pandamonium

      Having an OTK once you complete the quest isn't good?? Super easy Huffer otk especially with lock n load.

      1. MrAranak

        That only works if you control what is summoned, it isn't worded to discover an animal companion and then summon it. If it works like the spell it mimics then it is random and you may get a board full of Misha or Leokk.

  4. Irish Seadog

    Love the support for a fairly traditional midrange hunter, looks fairly strong too. I've a bit of a soft spot for that particular deck since it was the first decently full deck I could play.

  5. Wolfur

    Shame on you Tavish for using Rexxar's Horde pets. May they turn on you and bite you in the ass, Alliance scum!

  6. nephilim99

    Would this work with the quest? Everytime you cast a spell summon huffer (or a random companion animal)

    1. solaris29

      i want to say yes. i want to play that in a spell hunter maybe with vandar and some big summon+maxima for fun.

  7. TallJake26

    Why do all the heroes this expansion feel so lackluster and boring... None of them produce any kind of value generation.

    1. Muzek

      Only because we have the unlimited value provided by the quest lines. To he hero cards would have looked better had they come out before the quest. Just goes to show how bad the quests were for the longevity of the game

  8. h0lysatan

    Again, they created another form of spell counter. But this one doesn't make people rants over the randomness.

    Okay. I like the new secrets for spell. But I don't like the Hero Power. What? summons a body?
    Even Jaraxxus effect beat this guy. This is an expansion level card, this needs a buff.
    Also counter the face Hunter.

    1. WingedCastaway

      Still think it's better than Rokara since at least it's 6 mana heh. But yes, Tavish definitely on the weaker side. Seems to be a weird trend at Blizzard of making both the Alliance and Horde team "leader" the weakest.

      1. JoyDivision

        It's more like 'weaken the strongest archetypes' imho.

  9. TOGX

    i like the hero power, but I feel like this card is a bit underpowered for some reason. The improved secrets are good, but can be dealt with and you don't get more. And the hero power is kinda RNG based. What if you need huffer but get Leok instead? What if you need Leok, but get Misha instead? It's not really worth it IMO. But it might still see play and maybe I'm just wrong.

  10. EksSkellybur

    I'd say that Tavish is the most 'tradional' Hero Card out of the Bunch for Hunter, and escpially with the Traps, and if you can get Improved Freezing or Ice Trap to really cripple down that one minion or Spell.

    4 Stars.
