This seems pretty decent, not least because it’s potentially difficult to play around due to its high health. Even without any kind of buff, if dropped on turn 4, this will probably require two trades to clear, and as such represents a probable 1-damage aoe against some decks, which could be particularly problematic for the likes of stealth rogue. This will most likely see play in the likes of Warrior or any deck running the Broomstick, particularly paladin. Overall, solid but possibly not amazing. 3.7/5

I expect it’s just easier to do one big patch rather than lots of smaller ones

Overall, the listed bugs don’t look too bad, so it’ll be interesting to see what they’ve missed.

Yeah, they are a bit tacky.
Wicked Stab (Rank 1)
This is basically a slower eviscerate reprint. It might not be quite as good as evis as a result, particularly in aggressive decks, so 4/5

Can confirm this, one thing I’ve learnt from playing HS is that 10am PT is 6pm here in GB.
Altar of Fire
Although the flipside would be that such a package would make it harder to empty your deck, so we may see to what extent it would be worthwhile.
Altar of Fire
I reckon the new Core 5-drop that tutors your highest-cost card could be important for this sort of deck, and running an extensive Soul package should reduce to chance of milling the wrong cards.
Neeru Fireblade
Actually turs out it’s only end-of turn (you can check it on playhearthstone.com)
Altar of Fire
I don’t honestly see it being viable with just the cards we’ve seen so far. It realistically still needs another wincon imo, and possibly more even than that.

I expect so, especially given the nature of the discussions re stonetusk boar and bluegill warrior.
Swinetusk Shank
Essentially because “poisons” and “librams” would be far too narrow to bother with, both in terms of the number of synergies and the number of cards. Additionally, such cards already fall into the established spell schools anyway.
Neeru Fireblade
There’ll still be Rustwix, but that might be it. I’m still concerned at the consistency of this deck, although a soul fragment package should help for a few reasons.
Neeru Fireblade
A “portal” is not a new concept – the un’goro quest reward is the best example of when one was used before.
The card states clearly that the wimps are summoned “every turn”. This means they will essentially be summoned between turns, in other words at the start and end of your turn, just like Gruul’s effect.
They probbaly meant that only classic cards will work in classic id’ expect
