Worth noting is that giving the Rotgill buff to a minion which already has a deathrattle to summon minions will give the minions it summons the stat buff, as deathrattles proc on minions in the order they were applied as seen in the Rotgill demonstration. This can lead to some interesting scenarios where a board wipe such as Twisting Nether on a full board with the Rotgill buff could lead to you still having enough damage to kill them in the case that at least a couple of your minions had a summoning deathrattle (such as the spell that gives a deatrattle to summon zombies). I may switch to Firestone deck tracker just for this deck as you'd want to cast the spell on the friendly minion that first came into play because when multiple minions die, deathrattles trigger on each minion in the order of play, and Firestone keeps track of the order they came into play.
@@Argiopocalypse92 maybe? They whiffed on totem Shaman, and murloc Shaman was pretty easy to shut down, after 2 board clears. Blizzard always gives them a start, but no follow through. Stick with evolve, that's where the pay off is going to be.
That's what I thought too, it's basically what made Sludge Belcher so ubiquitous back then - it's a taunt that summons another taunt, and actually has a lot of stats in total
@@bycmozeszymon I think the main issue is that sludge belcher was good in Naxxramas and some of the expansions after that. Sludge belcher definetly doesn't hold up 8 years later
As far as card draw goes for Agro paladin, if they’re running a lot of buffs, a single myrmidon might provide all the draw necessary. Also, all the payoff for self-damage paladin can be found in wild with rastakans rumble.
The shaman shadow spell seems pretty interesting because the one card from sunken city that summons based on each spell school can fill the board very fast
Blood Paladin seems interesting. Hopefully they give a bit of a reward for taking damage as healing as never really been an amazing thing but hey, I'm all for it.
The 1 mana paladin 2/1 with divine shield seems craaaaazzzy good in aggro paladin. Your opponent has to spend at least 2 mana worth of spells to kill it and it gets in for 2? Really good. The blood crusader card also seems really good. Free ragnaros, free tirion, lots of other good stuff. It basically says your next card costs zero. A crazy strong tempo swing. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see how both of these don't become staples.
Rotgill on its own is ok but together with the shadow spell on turn 8 it presents a intersting bord challange for your oponent. If they try to play around Rotgrill with a AoE bord clear (in spacial symetrical) they have a harder time to controll the dmg of the Shadow Suffusion. if they try to controll the dmg of Shadow Suffusion with playing new minions and wiede boards they run in the problem of the Rotgrill buffs. While I think Shadow Suffusion is the better card in specail in combo with Rotgrill it could be a realy good push.
Also there’s no way some sort of midrange paladin doesn’t come together with the current rotation, or at least until stormwind and alterac rotate. You have that 3 mana 3/1 that can tutor your seal of blood if you don’t draw it, and you have order in the court to draw you countess into your blood crusaders. Seafloor savior is happy to have new targets now, and the deck has too many deck manipulation effects to tutor or dredge exactly what it wants to play on-curve. All it needs is cards as statistically strong as these. It already has buffet biggun and others I’ve mentioned here. Midrange paladin looks like it could consistently threaten turn 7-9 lethals, which is strong in this meta game. I’ll be trying it on day 1.
Shadow Suffusion looks like one of those cards that'll absolutely break the meta during the first month and gets immediately nerfed, no? Volatile Skeletons are already oppressive, and this turns ALL your creatures into BETTER volatile skeletons, with additional in-set deathrattle synergy, for 3 mana. Nothing except maybe priest has a clear out to this (at least that we know so far) and maybe a Rogue with Scabbs but... That's it? Fill your board with minions, and this is a 3 mana do 18 to the enemy hero spell? With no overload? Looks absolutely insane.
Big difference between burning blade and the shaman 5 mama guy is the front half has taunt so if they want to attack they have to go through both bodies the first turn you play it
I kind of love Feast and Famine in any midrange/control paladin with Cariel hero card. +5 health and a good trade with weapon; plus the health gain will likely be higher than the damage you take with a trade.
Though all of these blood damage cards are probably being added now since Cariel will rotate next year, so we only get that specific interaction for a few months
Scourge troll into two mana spell into three mana spell is 8*3 damage blasts at random enemies. First it summons 4 3/2s, then it gives them all the shadow suffusion deathrattle twice.
With Gorloc Ravager, Sir Finley, Schooling, Wildpaw Cavern, Crud Caretaker, Schoolteacher, and Clownfish, I do not think Shaman has ANY trouble reloading on board to set up rotgill (I mained shaman to legend in Nathria). Shaman was in need of cards like this one (or a card to make Bioluminescence a better payoff, but that’s more toxic). I think Rotgill is insane given the current state of Shaman. The likelihood that Rotgill will be in some kind of meta tier 2 or higher Shaman deck before it rotates out is almost 100%.
1 Mana 2/1 Divine Shield, take 2 damage... that's barely a cost, lol... it can REALLY slow down enemy plays to have a card ready to kill ANYTHING with two health...
Turn 5, coin + blood crusader + blood crusader + Rag the light lord. 18/18 worth of stats on 3 big bodies and you heal back 8. Or swap Rag with Leviathan. Big power move and fast
I can totally see Scourge Troll (double deathrattle minion) × 2 + Deathweaver aura (deathrattle summon 2 Zombies) on turn 4 into the Mirror Undead legendary on 5 for disgusting plays
Regis I found a really funny deck, it is demon hunter quest brand and infuse. The goal is to play brand then play the reward so all cards you draw are discounted by 4 mana
@@niccreznic8259 i still play like the single player witchwood deals and such but i’m more into magic solely because there’s so many more formats + easy access to singles
Feast and Famine lifesteal should work with Cariel 2 damage AoE right? And post Cariel Blood Crusaders also seem really good... I think paladin is actually shaping up to be a nice control deck in what seems like it could be zoo-oriented meta.
I think rotgill will pair well with battlecry setups in wild along with murloc, and it will be absolutely terrible in duels, they just decided to make the murloc pali shaman setup even worse didn't they lol
@@armytrainer dude what? I didn't realise I needed someone to address me personally before I'm allowed to comment.... Did I ask for your dumb question? No. I did not.
So blood paladins are just given rehashed warlock mechanics of self harm and heath in lien of mana. Somehow I’m both expecting and disappointed by the team at this point.
wish you’d put a star-rating graphic on the cards as you talk through them the first time, just announcing a string of spoken numbers as you quickly cycle thru cards at the end of the cideo doesn’t do it for me and makes the “rating” at the end of these videos feel super tacked-on

Can’t WAIT to see some Deathrattle Shaman duels, sounds really fun.
Deathly death could actually be good with Rotgill
Really enjoying the blood elf theme. They bend and force the light to their will, and I think they nailed the look and feel
Blood Crusader has one of the coolest names in Hearthstone, and I love that artwork.
Man, this might be my favorite hearthstone expansion. This is peak Warcraft flavor.
I will be waiting for someone to play Blood Crusader into Rag Lightlord to heal the lost health right back up.

You actually could get many many spell schools from Sunwell.
That card seems crazy good to me
remember when sludge belcher was super op. harkener of dread outstats it by 4/1

A blood paladin deck with a mix of lifesteal options would fit rather nicely , especially in wild lol

There are two 1 mana spells which handle a 2/1 with divine shield. Moon Beam and Earth Shock. This means it's at least 1 spell but typically 2 spells.
Rotgill on its own is ok but together with the shadow spell on turn 8 it presents a intersting bord challange for your oponent.

ur so right about paladin's lack of reload! with how far power creep has come I feel like divine favor would be balanced in standard lol
That paladin 1 drop is probably one of the most insane 1 drops ive seen. It can just deal with the 1 drop and the 2 drop with almost no drawback.
Warlock Paladin looks fun! Can't wait to play it
Big difference between burning blade and the shaman 5 mama guy is the front half has taunt so if they want to attack they have to go through both bodies the first turn you play it
Looks like silence will be very crucial to have for this meta
ratgil is just trade buff trade buff it's synergises murloc shaman in general

Also, if Glugg sticks and you Rotgill next turn, your opponent has to have starfish or it’s gg. This card devourer-proofs your board too.
1 Mana 2/1 Divine Shield, take 2 damage... that's barely a cost, lol... it can REALLY slow down enemy plays to have a card ready to kill ANYTHING with two health...
I'm expecting to see crazy paladin legendary after seeing Blood Crusader.
Ngl these new paladin cards seem amazing for quest paladin
I love the card art of Rotgill
Finally a set of reaaaally cool paladin cards i cant wait
Cool to see the Burning Crusade era Seal of Blood Blood Elf Pally aka Blood Knight
Finally I can Speedrun HS aswell, with early "Sanguine Soldier" and "Seal of Blood" into turn 5/6 "Blood Crusader" into "Shirvallah" Self OTK.
Ayo blood crusader into full cost shirvalla? New yes deck just dropped!!!
I can see Rotgill being insane...
In Battlegrounds
Turn 5, coin + blood crusader + blood crusader + Rag the light lord. 18/18 worth of stats on 3 big bodies and you heal back 8. Or swap Rag with Leviathan. Big power move and fast
Turn 2 Coin Clown Fish, Turn 3 Scourge Troll Deathweaver Aura, Turn 4 1-2 Mana murloc and Rotgill.
Since we have a set rotation coming up after lich king, I wonder if we'll get Rivendare to make these Deathrattles crazy.
"It could end up as a 6 9"
Nice
I hope that Shadow Suffusion card art was made using the Stable Diffusion AI
Rotgill Murloc shaman is gonna be a decent deck
I can totally see Scourge Troll (double deathrattle minion) × 2 + Deathweaver aura (deathrattle summon 2 Zombies) on turn 4 into the Mirror Undead legendary on 5 for disgusting plays
Shaman looks MEAN this xpac, the 1/1/3 plus the 2 mana spell is a HUGE board on potentially turn 3
Can't wait to smothering starfish all the shamans
I think big payoff cards like rot gill are just going to force starfish to get ran more.
I feel like Clownfish and Rotgill shenanigans will snowball some games enough to be considered 4 star
Regis I found a really funny deck, it is demon hunter quest brand and infuse. The goal is to play brand then play the reward so all cards you draw are discounted by 4 mana

Would you take an additional damage for +1/+1 and the demon subtype, blood paladin is not good
how many stars did he give the Rotgill? ( i cant seem to find where he said how much it got)
Sanguine soldier must’ve been flame imp in previous life maybe
Murloc explosion deck is the new meta
We really need another minion like Immortal Prelate, only this time make it a neutral card.
feast and famine is sweet with carriel

I'm not sure if this set is underwhelming or castle nathria is just too ridiculous
Play 2 blood crushers and the. The other one, sweet deal
Remember Reno is in standard again.
Aggro/pain Paladin dude questline Paladin? 2 of the cards costed 1
how do you regain health do with like paladin, just paladin healing cards?
Lifesteal cards. There are a couple that either manathirst into lifesteal or buff into
All I can say is thank the lord that Blood Crusader is minions only. Would not be excited for turn 5 Cariels
Paladin is now warlock
Can you cast Seal of Blood on a lifesteal minion for extra health?
Furthermore can you stack Feast and Famine on it (or even build-a-lifesteal-minion)?
Shamn having a shadow spell.. hmm
Blood crusader+shinvala just spend 25 life
