    where are the actual deathrattle minions for this new archetype tho

  2. Irish Seadog

    This is probably a pretty damn good win wincon, but as always, we need to see what it actually summons, and we need to be able to run enough good deathrattles for this to trigger consistently. Probably 4/5, but possibly not immediately. We may need to wait an expansion or two for it to work fully.

    All this deathrattle hype better be good

    There will probably be some solid 4 & 5 mana deathrattle minion for Demon Hunter.. Not gonna lie this effect is terrifying even if it pulls mediocre stuff cause deathrattles are not easy to deal with. Glad Demon Hunter gets some new archetypes but I'd rather not have it be stupidly op all over again

    As often, we have great Deathrattle synergies and no good Deathrattle minions to come with them.

    gib rattledeath bliz

    These deathrattles better be ridiculous because if they aren't this card is going to flop. Hooktusk cost 1 more in Rogue with more reasonable targets but gave them all rush. Hooktusk only saw fringe play, so I don't have high hopes here.

    Dammit Blizzard... Why demon hunter, out of all the classes lol. From what I remember the ONLY deathrattle we have in DH that costs less than 5 is renowned performer(who turned out not to be as renowned as she made herself out to be).

    Whatever 4-5 drop deathrattle(s?) DH gets this expansion BETTER be good. AND consistent.

    Why push for a deathrattle demon hunter?? I mean why not make it hunter.

      I think hearthstone just wants to give Demon Hunter a new Architype, instead of just heading his opponent to Death all the time, or making an OTK / Aggro Deck.

    Instant 5 stars, however I STILL! Think that Deathrattle Demon Hunters just a bit more firepower when it comes to Deathrattles. I think Even with Death Speaker Blackthorn, I don't think that Deathratte Demon Hunter will be competitive enough as it is. It needs a bit more Deathrattle Cards for it to be officially be experimented on.
