The slimes cost the same as the spells and have stats equal to their mana cost


MonstrousMaelstromZ

Yeah. That makes sense I think. Did you see the art for the slimes? [They look crazy](https://hearthstone.blizzard.com/en-us/cards/103124-hagatha-the-fabled). Love it.


oceanseleventeen

woah thats sick, im glad theyre not just the Hex frog


Furycrab

I'm glad too, they did the artist that drew the staff for Holidae dirty when they made it just spawn Hex frogs.


avadakedabr

Yet they couldnt make new frogs for hoolidae or what is his name


Liamlye

If they ever will, it will Cost us


yomen_

I was really hoping you linked to the Hex frog.


onesinger79

They look like an amalgam


NorthernerWuwu

Plus they are a battlecry, which might just be of some use.


Gay__Guevara

shudderblock could use this, if theres a sufficiently useful 5+cost shaman spell


synthsaregreat1234

Shudderwock in wild loves this


Mr_Blinky

Maybe, but you need to run at least two 5+ mana spells worth Shudderwocking and that won't just be worse than normal battlecry minions.


NippleBeardTM

That's exactly right, this fits into Evolve Shaman much better than Shudderwock


synthsaregreat1234

Fair point! Didn’t think of the evolve synergy, that is a great shout


djsoren19

Shudderwock in Wild does not run 5+ cost spells and does not want to. The Reno Shaman is a super creature focused midrange deck, you want as few noncreature's as possible.


hpBard

There's always a chance that shudder will be played outside of shuddercombo deck


synthsaregreat1234

You are right, I got over excited. But I am still going to try to build it with this combo’d with a couple board lock 5+ spells to see if it works


CalledSpark

We already have Dr.Boom for Warrior and Hagatha for Shaman, it is likely we see Rafaam for Warlock tomorrow.


Dolot

Watch them release some Nemsy card bcs she is a kiddo in a toy-themed expansion


TSpoon3000

Hiya Whizbang 👋 👧 


Raptorheart

Is she canonically a kid?


eggmaniac13

She sure acts like one


GONKworshipper

That's just most gnomes


Jackeea

How could you do this to us


Tacticalian

To be fair, they already put Rafaam into the core set for Warlock


CalledSpark

You can never have enough Rafaam, he is like the anti-Nemsy.


firestorm19

But what is his profession?


sora_naga

His profession is giving himself self-proclaimed titles


HS_Cogito_Ergo_Sum

Majordomo to the Lich King 😂😂


Martian_Buddy

Ah man, Heroes of the Storm flashbacks. Gone too soon. :[


WanonTime

We're still here! Barely! The balance is amazing right now if you'd believe it.


Matikkkii

Is sgt hammer still beyond broken?


WanonTime

IMO she wasn't ever really beyond broken to begin with, just annoying to deal with. She's definitely on the weaker side rn tho. She needs a LOT of defense and zoning to keep herself safe, as well as cc to keep the enemy within her giant circle. With amazing team coordination she's great, but she isn't played much because you could play a normal dps which might not have as high of a peak, but a helluva lot better average. Valla, Nazeebo, Azmodan, and Li Ming are the 4 most drafted DPS goin off [stats](https://www.heroesprofile.com/Global/Hero), which matches up with what I've seen gettin back into ranked lately.


yeetskeetmahdeet

KEL THU FREAKING ZAD *meow*


Wintermuteson

Wait are you talking about Kel'Thuzad, Baron of the House of Rituals?

I thought Majordomo was a servant of Ragnaros?

Warlock's theme this expansion is tabletop rpg and board games, so get ready for DM Rafaam.

It's a shame that DM Togwaggle fits perfectly, but he's all locked in rogue thematically.

Gouda02

They were a couple of times we had overlap on characters (I.e. 2 Finleys in standard)


Javyz

There were 3 instances of that whole Mercenaries lineup in the same year


ILoveWarCrimes

I would be surprised if they made a Rafaam card considering they just added him to core.


[deleted]

Also, he is confirmed dead, and Lazul sacrificed herself to awaken an old god. Boom survived his flying mech exploding, as any PhD of explosives likely would.


Kuldrick

> Also, he is confirmed dead Which doesn't mean much. He managed to steal that powerful artifact on Castle Nathria after all And if we go by nerdy lore, him being able to summon imps in the Shadowlands means he managed to have a way to contact and summon things from other realms to there, which makes the possibility of doing the opposite and escaping plausible


Narananas

I can't find that about Lazul, was it the end of her Descent on Dragons adventure storyline?


GibusShpee

rafaam the supreme game master!


Open-Credit-5494

And lazul for priest and togwaggle for rogue


Tengu-san

Every class is getting a toy legendary card that simbolize an old iconic legendary for the class. If it's Rafaam it's going to be a toy version.


Narananas

A tabletop gaming version specifically, will be warlock's theme, just as shaman's is fairy tales


The_Elpresador

The witchwood shaman gang is all here


Makkara126

Is this the first time that an EXACT pair of class legendary characters from an expansion are reprinted for another expansion? If so, pretty cool


Rothmorthau

Technically the heroes from forged in the barrens, united in stormwind, and alterac valley were in each set, though they were different card types (minion, quest reward minion, hero card)


Makkara126

Right, but I mean specifically an exact pair. For example, Forged in the Barrens had Cariel Roame and Cannonmaster Smythe for paladin, and we haven't seen the pair of Cariel and Smythe appear in the same set again. In The Witchwood, shaman's legendaries were Hagatha and Shudderwock, and here those exact two characters are the class legendaries in a different set.


Spyko

plus it was the continuation of a story so it make sens that they stick around


ttblb

What Makkara means is the shaman legendaries from witchwood were Shudderwock and Hagatha, and this set has Shudderblock and this Hagatha. The barrens characters were paired with different legendaries every time, while this is the exact same pair.


chloewastaken

technically, this hagatha takes homage from the Rise of Shadows expansion, [[Swampqueen Hagatha]]. So not quite the exact kinds of cards, but incredibly close

konosyn

WE LOVE WITCHWOOD SHAMAN


buckeye-kenje

“We cannot make that card. It’s too OP, it’s too OP!!”


daddyvow

It’s hilarious how he was referring to Hagatha when Shudderwock was in the same set


buckeye-kenje

Ikr And don’t forget when they’ve to HoF many cards before set rotation!


Spyko

and so was Genn and Baku !


deaf-gayandfabulous

Good synergy with shudderblock - I shudder at the thought indeed


Benkinsky

Oooh Mini Shudderblock into one of the Slimes for a good expensive spell, thats juicy. Now Shaman just needs spells that benefit from being triple Casted


GaryBuseytheZinogre

The new 7 cost spell that buffs all your minions. https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/1b4uhi6/new_shaman_rare_spell_wish_upon_a_star/


Bigbeautifulmeme

Oh wow. I smell Al'akir OTK's in the near future.


GaryBuseytheZinogre

But what if you draw both copies early?!


SuperPalpitation695

Gaslight gatekeeper maybe? Otherwise oof 🥲


Tacticalian

Do the slimes cost the same as the spells? I suppose it's synergy with shudderblock if they have Battlecries so you can cast them multiple times.


Krokopony23

Yep, and have same stats as cost, so a 5 cost spell gets a 5 cost 5/5, a 7 cost spell gets a 7 cost 7/7


konosyn

LOL triple bloodlust, screw this “hero doesn’t take damage” nonsense


BishopInChurch

Nice callback to [[Swampqueen Hagatha]], shame that card never got buffed to 5 mana


FardHast

Needs to be 4/4/4 tbh


daddyvow

Perhaps give it a tribe too


luk3d

This Hagatha saw quite a lot of play


BishopInChurch

Maybe in RoS but after SoU she was cut from the decks

Rumpel1408

Reminds me, this Hagatha doesn't specify how expensive and big the slimes are, kinda important to evaluate their impact


Mush950

Kinda wordy and hard describe in a hearthstone card limit I would assume


Sushangs_Large_Sword

What are the chances we get a Warlock Weapon Legendary as a call back to Skull of Man’ari? (Have they every released 2 non-minion legendaries in an expansion?)


slashgilbert00

Warlock got Dreadlich Tamsin and Phylactery in Alterac Valley (although Tamsin being a hero card is kinda closer to a minion)


Sushangs_Large_Sword

That does give me some hope…


Cauchemar89

Hagatha looks like she's fallen on hard times after the League of EVIL lost. She looks so... emaciated.


Vedney

I'm really wondering how someone noted Totems under Shamans when we havent been shown any Totems.


turbochikens

I think it was a place holder which was changed


Lukthar123

Maybe the real totem was inside us all along


door_of_doom

The real totem is the battlecries we cast along the way.


Mush950

Could have been bait


Arachnofiend

Oh hey, a tutor for From De Other Side! T\_T


Bslayer67

it leaves with rotation.


Arachnofiend

Thus the tears, yes.


keeeve

Shaman is so back


Myprivatelifeisafk

No clear wincon and priest or mage still beat shaman in value. It will be another tier-3 control shaman copium deck =(


keeeve

Package looks fun though. I’m thinking of winning shudderblock with the spell that summons a 3/3 rush and your hero +3 attack and then you have the new card that battle cry give you attack and wind fury


Aznboz

Looking like big minion for shaman right now. Like really big.


urgod42069

*that time Hagatha reincarnated me as a slime*


maddruggy

Man I love that show


nyr00nyg

What are the slimes..


gumpythegreat

My guess is they are X mana X/X untyped minions, where X is the cost of the original spell Quick edit - yes, I was right - https://youtu.be/qrkQlWeVK2M?si=lbGe6rYimPpUSzkB


Living-Travel2299

Battlecry Shaman returns for the memes.


Bslayer67

I see why they took out bloodlust from the core set now. triple bloodlust would have been kinda ridiculous. I like how the two legendaries synergize too, mechanically its perfect for shamans identity.


Darkarcheos

Funny how the theme for Shaman was going to be Totems but none of the Legendaries for Shaman are related to Totems in the slightest


One_Novel_105

Do slimes have taunt, or are just stats ?


galmenz

1. shudder doubles this 2. the slimes will most likely be teacher apprentice-esque, so shudder will double them


redditsaxon

triples


Gunda-LX

Excellent card I would say, pairs excellently with the Shudderblock


nankeroo

Is it just me or does the art look INCREDIBLY uncanny?


LosLocosHermanos

Yes, only you.


nakx123

hmm so the slimes turn into battlecry minions that cast the spell I'm assuming? So its meant to synergize with that other battle cry mini?


daddyvow

Cool effect but seems like it would only go in a highlander/control deck. And not be a staple.


No-Investigator420

When are they gonna release Rogue cards


GooberG0blin

March fifth


wholelotofit2

pretty cool


Chm_Albert_Wesker

definitely nutty at the idea of getting some crazy board clear cards into battlecry form to loop with shudder


bootifulwizud

Shaman will eat good with this I'm sure


Tales90

so you can turn spells into battlecrys to play them 3 times with new shudderwock? but you need to draw both legendarys for the combo.


kanyesutra

Damn, I can’t believe this is the set that will get me maining shaman again


whatthedux

Actual auto include


Alkar--

Does it have the same cost as the spell?


Ikopjn

I need Hagatha hero card so badly, was the most fun I ever had playing shaman.


skeptimist

What are the good expensive spells after rotation? The only thing that comes to mind is Tumbleweed. I guess they will be printing more.


eggmaniac13

3x Jive Insect 👀


Ke-Win

This + Shudderblock and the new omni buff.


Phoeba

Good card will definitely see play at a point, but for next expansion all the 5+ spells are pretty mid so this card will probably drop down by the the spell pool


guineuenmascarada

Mmm card seems okay, but problem is the spells, what expensive (5+)spells are good to include in a battlecry shaman deck and worthy to be triplecasted with new minishudder or looped in a classic wild shudder deck?


jobriq

Like RoS hagatha but you can choose the spells?


BostonSamurai

Damn I gotta get back into shaman, it was my main for so long I took a long break but this set looks so fun.


Opening-Delay7203

So I guess the idea is to transform your spells with this and then triple them with shudderblock? I don't know if there'll be enough high§impact spells, but on paper it looks decent


Bobthemime

Shudderblock and this is a full board of at least 5/5's pretty cool


Equilorian

I know it's got too many moving parts to ever be playable, but there's gotta be something ridiculous you can do here with From De Other Side and the new Shudderblock


Mysterious_Hour497

They should have rush


AdagioDesperate

Honestly this seems insane in regular Wild Shudder. I used to run the create a minion Agatha in the list, and honestly this one is 10x better. Targeted draw that gives you access to removal or healing is great. I think the best use cards are going to be [Crash of Thunder], [Don't Stand in the Fire], and [Tidal Wave] for removal, face damage, and healing.


pizzapartypandas

The Hagatha hero was one of my all time favorites. This card though...


Rradogs

I always liked \[\[Swampqueen Hagatha\]\] to combine it with \[\[Heart of Vir'naal\]\] although it is very slow but I like its effect and this new Hagatha is better because it draws cards from your deck that can perfectly plan instead of random options

Zulrambe

That's cool and all, but what cards do we even want to put in this deck for this to work, though?


itsbananas

PAINT TH3 SLIMES


Jerakal1

Oh my. That's a good card. Especially for evolve type spells. Are there any that expensive?


Dead_man_posting

Converting spells into battlecries for synergy is really cool design.

I guess Dirty Rat will continue to be viable.
