The Dwarf guy works well with that new DK helm.

Ahkara - Basically for 5 cost we get two 3/3s with no text. She's okay, but nothing too special.

Brumdor Dreadforge - When Fields of Honor comes out, he'll work well with Ironforge. As a Dwarf, he ups the limit on the cost of the equipment Ironforge can return. His text also puts the equipment in the discard pile, where Ironforge can return it to hand. If you find an equipment you'd like to play and/or destroy several times, you can recur it without having to have a second copy in hand.

Valeos Chillheart - There will be times his text kicks in to allow you to rid yourself of an opposing ally without losing a single card. Then there are times his text will do diddly squat. It depends on your opponent, really, but he might work well with AOEs.

Wanda Darkfizz - The ability is wasted on a 1-coster, in my opinion. Sure, you can play her on turn one, but she'd basically be a blank 2/1. I do plan to use her in a Gnome Rogue deck using Merry, Teep and Lowdown, but I don't plan to ever play her on turn 1. Hopefully I'll have either one of the Apprentices or Whispering Blades of Slaying.

I suppose 1 out of 4 ain't bad.

The gnome makes me want to play blue warrior again so much. She's great to have with the Gnome warrior hero from AGM and can work well to make the deck so much stronger, with "Lowdown" as a partner-in-crime.

The night elf one is okay. It may be a good time to build up a few decks that deal AoE efficiently to pick off the allies, using the night elf as a "weapon".

The draenai one has a cool effect, making the Ghoul system work efficiently.

The dwarf one makes the Ebon Blade better. Use his effect in response to destroying your weapon to draw a card... still meh though.

OMG OMG OMG
that little gnome has so much potential
just get a 0 cost instant weapon ... aw ... we have eskandral right claw :D !

the draeni is interesting too
a nice card to fuel ghouls for your army

the other 2 are just a little to expensive unfortunatly
but the dwarf has some nice interaction with the greatsword of the ebon blade
turn 4 the dwarf , turn 5 play and strike with the sword , then sack it for a card
