New Keyword/Mechanic – Dredge

Dredge is a new keyword/mechanic that works a bit similarly to Scry from Magic: The Gathering, but in reverse. Instead of looking at the cards from the top of your deck with  the ability to send them to the bottom – you look at bottom 3 cards from your deck and have the ability to send one of them to the top. The card you pick will – of course – be the next card you draw.

 

Dredge mechanic will be a great way to control your draws and ensure the highest chance of getting what you need. Not only it gives you knowledge of what you will draw next, but also of the cards that you WON’T draw because they’re at the bottom.

What’s important is that there are also cards that are synergistic with Dredge. Some of the new cards will have the ability to “sink” a card to the bottom of your deck, which you can then retrieve with Dredge. It should lead to some really interesting shenanigans and planning ahead.

New Keyword/Mechanic – Colossal Minions

Voyage to the Sunken City expansion also features a new mechanic called “Colossal”. Colossal minions come in a few parts – main one + appendages. It doesn’t matter if you play them directly from your hand or summon them through any means, they split into the board (e.g. Colossal +3 will summon the original minion and 3 appendages, so 4 minions in total).

 

 

The main minion often has some kind of synergies with its extra parts, possibly forcing the opponent into some tough decisions regarding removals.

New Minion Type – Nagas

It’s been a while since Hearthstone has got a new minion type. Technically one was added exactly a year ago, in Forged in the Barrens. But Quilboars didn’t have any specific synergies in Constructed and were mostly added for the sake of Battlegrounds. This time, however, Nagas should be a full-fledged minion type with its own Constructed synergies.

 

Naga are spell-focused minion type that usually give you some sort of bonus for playing spells while you’re holding a Naga minion in your hand.

    Hey there! Just a note: The visual card list always gets ‘destroyed’ in Chrome when there’s an add banner inbetween the shown cards. Then, almost all of those cards (under one group, like all Mage cards if there’s a banner in that section) are shown very tiny (like 10 x 20 pixels) and thus are unreadable.

    Don’t know if I’m the only one with that problem but maybe it’s fixable!?

    Nonetheless, thanks for all your work!

      Now I see it’s the banner indeed. So yes you’re not the only one. I’m using Chrome as well.

      Seems like it’s already fixed. Wow!

          Yeah you’re right, seems I got lucky. There are 2 kinds of ads; one has the width of a card (works fine), the other is very wide and that’s the one that ‘kills’ the correct view of the cards.

    Would be nice to have some portrait badges update. I want to pick Ambasador Faelin as my new one.

    Wait what? All Naga characters are females? Weird.
    If anyone plays Warcraft 3 FT, there’s plenty of Naga males.

      Blizzard would absolutely make every character female if they could, smh lol

      We have a bunch of male Naga: Coilskar Commander, Raj Naz’jan, Wrathspine Enchanter, Blackscale Brute, Naga Giant (I think male? maybe?), Slithering Deathscale, Crushclaw Enforcer

      (Maybe they weren’t revealed when you wrote that comment yet though,)

    I suggest this expansion to be super minion heavy. All classes get minions that summon minions.
    Prolly everyone got tired of self playing questlines based on spells.

    Hello Stonekeep, I think there’s been a slight mixup in the cards. Miracle Growth (Druid) appears in the Demon Hunter section. Not a problem at all but thought I’d let you know!

      I updated it a few days ago but forgot to reply. Thanks for the comment though! 🙂

    So, here’s my take on this new expansion.
    Colossal, good mechanic, won’t be interrupted by tech cards like Dirty Rat and the like, although I still don’t know how it works when someone get Colossal minion by Evolve or Copy effect. Probably gonna see some tech cards that can increase Colossal X token.

    Dredge, not really good. The idea of dredge is to draw a card from the bottom. In order for this to be an effective bottom draw, is to manually put something on the bottom 1st and that takes planning time. Comparing this to effect like Spellburst or Frenzy, or even tutor card, or even Polkett effeck, where it’s faster.

    New tribe Naga, it would be good if they actually print a lot of Naga synergies. But in fact, new tribe like Naga and Quillboar doesn’t have that much synergies like the old tribes (Beast, Murlocs etc). It can be good, but it’ll take maybe another year to accumulate more synergies.

    New Mega Bundle probably keeps including Merc Packs. Can’t complain there, since it’s doesn’t reduce the value from previous M.Bundle.

    Love the flavor of this expansion and am excited to see the rest of the colossal cards! Really cool to see a new take on legendary cards.

    Hmmm revealing most of the expansion, and then doing a final reveal(perhaps all cards for an unannounced class) along w/ the 2022 theme + core set changes. Just baseless speculation – but this would be one way to introduce monk…

    • TardisGreen

      I suspect that a new class would be announced immediately, to maximize the amount of hype. And I seem to remember Iskar saying the next class was a while off.

      Also, I don’t think there is an overriding theme for this year. Three separate, fairly independent expansions.

        March 17, 2022 at 4:23 pm

        I thought so too, but then they said “tie in to this Hearthstone year’s theme” at the end of their reveal post.

        If they’re going to introduce, it would either be at the very beginning(like we saw for demon hunter) or the very end. Tying together the final reveal and Hearthstone year announcement is unusual timing, but would make sense if introducing a new class
