In this article, we will review the new cards, evaluate the strength of each class set and rank the sets against each other. We will also be ranking the classes, which is very difficult to do but it is fun. We’re very good at evaluating cards once we see them being played live, but without data, the process becomes educated guessing. Keep that in mind.
In addition, we will be producing a theory-crafting article in which we will present you with ideas on what kind of decks could be successful from each class in The Lost City of Un’Goro. It will be released on Monday, July 7th, a day before the expansion’s launch.
Tomorrow, July 1st, we will publish a theorycrafting article containing decks for the Pre-Release Tavern Brawl. These decks will be built without epics or legendaries from the new expansion. Some of them will cater to players who may not purchase pre-order bundles but want to head into the brawl with a strong deck to compete with by running no expansion cards at all.
We’ve assessed cards based on their potential strength and scored them accordingly from 1 to 4 based on the guidelines below.
4- Meta-defining, or an extremely powerful card we have great confidence will see play. Translation: Busted!
3- Very strong card that we’re confident will see play. Translation: Nice!
2- Decent, or niche card with potential to see play. Translation: Okay!
1- A card we don’t believe will see competitive play, for whatever reason. Translation: Meh!
For neutral cards that we believe will see play, we’ve also listed the classes or decks that are most likely to use them.
Each class piece ends in final thoughts regarding the class’ prospects and its rankings.
