    I actually like Dark Alley pact a lot, it reminds me a whole lot of Twilight Drake, in terms of the Size o his Hands. Twilight Drake was The Warlock’s most favourite Dragon, and now they have Dark Alley pact to gain back that sudden spike power for Turn 4. Either being around an 8/8 or a 9/9.

    I’m gonna give this 4 Stars.

    Well, this is basically mountain giant but more flexible – if your hand size hasn’t reached 8 cards by turn 4 you can at least still play this, albeit at the cost of summoning a weaker body.

    Still, I’m not convinced that handlock will have a significant place in the upcoming meta. Aggro is just gonna ignore the 8/8 body on turn 4 and continue to go face. I’ll write this one off as a 2/5 for now.

    Um, 4 mana summons a body that doesn’t do anything? Pass.

    It’s a better Mountain Giant. If hand warlock is viable (I think it needs more strong heal for that to happen) this will be the card that carries it. Sleeper 5 star card in my view.

    More spells to go with Tamsim is always good to have

    I would put this in a highlander evenlock
    With this + drake+ mountain giant for « mid game » & molten giant + flesh giant for « late game »

    Could be useful for Handlock. I think averagly however it’s going to be a minion that’s worth around 6 mana minimum, maaaaybe 5 at last resort idea, but usually 6 mana and warlock can still be happy enough.

    4 Stars.

    Looks like they’re supporting evenlock again… in comparison to Mountain Giant, this looks pretty promising, even in Standard. 4/5
