Interesting analysis. The goal for this card seems to be a good counter to faster decks than hunter (pirates, shaman/druid tokens, zoo, etc).

This card could have a great impact in Wild Control Hunter archetypes, I mean Reno + Deathstalker Rexxar, why not?

It reminds me the Icecrown Citadel Raid where hunters use to make a lot of AOE with the creeps and ghouls around inside.

Not bad, not bad. I think it is important that you feel identified with some classes and their different archetypes. For instance, with this card, they are creating a serious Hunter Control (or a prototype).
Problem of neutral legendaries is that they limit the deckbuilding because you put them in all decks.

Faceless Manipulator? Why not?

Keep in mind that there are no filters to create an account and post…
So, it’s our work (most experimented people) to help people or clarify some doubts.

I think you got the point, intelligence is the key to take advantage of this card.

Seriously? Art is awesome, Hemet hunting in the jungle, a dino skull on his head, a fauna costume, I love the art! A great tribute to one of the most iconic characters in the WoW (those beast-chain quests… so nostalgic).

Good point…. I thought it was trash, but as you said, information about your opponent is extremey valuable.

In my opinion, the idea is to draw two boars 1/1 when you have Don’ Hancho on hand… why not? It could be playable.

Warlock has a similar card (3 mana and 9 damage) and nobody plays it.

It’s like a Enhance-o Mechano with better stats. I like it, so a Murloc army is coming in Un’Goro!

Not bad not bad.
Sometimes in control mage decks, there are some turns you only use hero power, so this card gives you an option to play some minions instead.
In addition, I like the art, it reminds me that amazing mount in WOW.

Despite it’s kind of RNG, it looks really fun. At least 1/3 should be useful in most of the circumstances.

Interesting idea, however wild is exactly that, you can use whatever you can.
For instance, in my case I use standard decks and play wild because I don’t want to deal with pirates.

In the other hand, the solution could be the match-up system, I mean, the system could match players up according to the cards. For example, if you play Wild Ladder using some GvG/Naxx cards, you shouldn’t be matched up with full-standard card decks, because like you said, you are looking for something different in the Wild format.

I have other example, if you play Wild Ladder using a full-pirate tier 1 standard deck, the system SHOULD match-up you with a similar standard deck in the Wild Ladder.

Nowadays you can be killed in turn 3 or 4 against an extremely aggro deck. So, the new challenge is to survive at least until turn 6 to play Reno (if you have him in hand).
I really don’t see an argument to remove or nerf Reno if there are tons of aggro decks around there.

I agree with you, I wish someday other hunter archetypes (than face or midrange) could be a thing, why not a Control Hunter? Hero Power could be changed with some spells like Priest.

In my opinion, some tests need to be made. There are some decent demons that could be included in a HandLock, for instance:

– Doomguard (charge).
– Fearsome Doomguard (great stats)
– Dread Infernal.
– Pit Lord
– Felguard (taunt, not bad)
– Unlicensed Apothecary
– Lord Jaraxxus
– Imp Gang Boss
– Succubus
– Dreadsteed (always good)

+ Kazzakus and his spells.

If you summon at least 3 of them, it may be good. I may include a Panda to rescue Jaraxxus or even Krul for another demon wave.

I think it won’t trigger.

Finally Cho’Gall playable!!!
