Tools of the Trade: New Recruits
By Phil Cape

We just got a huge influx of new playables (the new set is simply awesome!), and everyone is scrambling to determine the best way to use them.

i myself would like to build a deck around ruthlessness..

Feral Druid +1.

Trains, Planes, or Automobiles...you better have my DOUGHnuts.

i said it once, and ill say it again.  Kidney Shot is looking to be my favorite FoH card.  3 resources to exhaust all your opponent's resources is eye opening to me and not to mention not many classes can do that.  its a potential upset in the making.

I agree. Kidney Shot is probably my favorite card, out of FoH.

It's just a lot of versatility, and power, across multiple matchups, in one card. The potential that it opens up, is something that I think Jonas desperately needed, and this set delivered.

I'm not sure what I think of Ruthlessness, though. It's interesting, definitely, but I'm just not sure how revolutionary it'll be, in pushing Assassination into being a playable, and competitive spec, yet.


I also really love Hesriana, although I haven't gotten to test with her, nearly as much, as I'd like to.

I like pack tactics in the old tauren druid. with thunder bluff and alamo on board your allys get really big quickly

Hasn't seen a complete spoiler? Seriously?

Anyway, my vote goes to Durid too. It would largely be a new deck, even though it looks to be a fusion of two old decks, and I'd be interested to see how it turns out. The Belt in Koozar isn't exactly revolutionary...you just add the Belt, and I don't think there's any need to stray from the successful Jonas when it comes to combo/finishing move manipulation.

I'm pretty sure Thug doesn't usually use caps lock. And I thought he was sick of being banned.

yeah I'd want to see the Feral Deck in action too.

I'm not too sold on the Mage/Priest aggro concept.  The scenario explained in the article (turn 1 drop, turn 2 drop, turn 3 belt) seems much too ideal to actually pull off.  Still, if it can work consistently then it should be a beating against control or midrange decks.  Though do note that very seldom will an opponent do nothing against your growing board during the first 2 turns.
