I've played hearthstone during beta testing when it was open to everyone, and I have a deck for each class so far.  That being said, I haven't played in over a month.

I hit rank 9 with my priest deck last season. I probably could have gone higher if I really wanted.

Currently rank 10 with the same deck.

Just realized that I forgot to get to rank 20 in May so I missed out on the card back reward. :(

I'll have to try again for June. Do they actually have a new back every month?

Yup, new card back every month. I like last months the best so far.

Yeah, last season I got to rank... 7 I think? Best I've done is 4. That was with my murloc-lock deck. I just decided to try something different this month so I don't get bored.

I hit rank 2 a couple seasons back alternating between Paladin Control and Shaman Tempo. Right now I'm just playing around with different Druid decks.

I played a lot of Hearthstone yesterday and fortunately, I was able to make it to rank 18. However, I lost a few games so I'm at Rank 19 again. :P I played mostly with my hunter deck.

Oh just wait till ranks 14 to 12... Ugh. I don't know why, but I have a very hard time in there, and then it's smooth sailing until about rank 9.

Not gonna lie, I don't know if I would play that card.

It does not offer that much value, since you still need mana to play the beast you draw in the first place. Plus, you could get something terrible like a Young Dragonhawk.

Hunter really needed a good mid-game beast, not yet another early-game one.

But you could get a Savannah Highmane or King Krush...welcome to Value Town. ;)

Wait, so that random beast card will just be any random beast card, not one from your deck? Seems reallly interesting.

Netdecked Shockadin. It was a good choice. I had been wallowing in the ranks of about 18, and within a couple of hours, I'm now at 14 and climbing. Also starting to understand the game much better. Before, I had only been playing control decks.

Yeah, random beast from the beast pool, not from the deck. 4x Savannah Highmane would be awesome.

You still need to wait till turn 9 to play that King Krush. What did Webspinner offer you in terms of earlygame? 1 damage.

You'd still be better off just running King Mukla in your deck to begin with, and a better minion in place of webspinner.

Bad card is bad.

Not really, both King Krush and Mukla are mediocre to begin with. But its certainly far better value than most of the beasts you could get in the pool.

People are looking at this card the wrong way, the card is pure tempo advantage. Concerning the random beast draws, most of the time it will net you an average beast. And that's perfectly fine for beast decks since they can easily use any average beast to fulfill the role of becoming better when used in conjunction with other cards in the deck (Buzzard, Kill Command, Houndmaster, Hyena, etc). Sure, there is a small chance you could get something as bad as a Young Dragonhawk or Angry Chicken, but even then it must be evaluated slightly higher than normal since that is a 'bad' card that did not have to eat a card slot in your deck. Therefore saying to simply put King Mukla (or any beast card) in your deck to begin with instead of the Webspinner itself is certainly not on the same level as drawing a Mukla with Webspinner. A lot of people are also forgetting Webspinner can draw into itself.

Overall, the card will be great in any Hunter deck that isn't Face Hunter.

Scroll through the rest of the album to see enemy heroes, interface, card backs, etc. Also, a cached page from wowhead.com before it was taken down earlier today revealed 3 additional leaked cards:

- 2/8 minion for 3 mana. Has Taunt and a Deathrattle that gives your opponent a random minion from his deck.
- 2/1 spider for 2 mana that turns into two 1/1 spiders on death.
- 4/3 minion for 5 mana with Taunt that becomes a 1/1 minion with Taunt on death.

Although it hasn't been spoiled or leaked yet, I'm guessing he will be 7/7. 4/4 doesn't seem like it will be worth it...well, it's still value either way, but 7/7 seems more appropriate.


What if Thaddius reads:

7/7 Deathrattle: Summon a Feugen and a Stalagg.


The madness.
