Rafaam and Heistbaron Toggwagle are also featured as stuffed dolls mounted on the wall in Dorian's full art, and having Boom already be a major character in this expansion, perhaps they are hinting at the return of all League of Evil characters. Also the League of Evil logo is visible on the priest location.

Dorian works really well with the location that draws battlecry minions in shaman.

I'm making the call now. Puppet Theatre is going to be meta, this is one of those cards that scales with ELO. The better the decks you play against are, the better this becomes.

Ship's Chirurgeon + Funhouse Mirror will allow a lot of favorable trades.

The Puppet Theatre is going to be great, because there are so many cards that the opponent will now not want to play. So yes, it might not be great to get a 5 mana Titan, but your opponent will now always think twice about playing their most powerfull minions which is valuable in itself.

⁠​⁠@@ancient7716The stats don’t matter, your opponent won’t play their Titans, they won’t play their final Excavate Treasure, they won’t play their large swing cards with battlecries or Deathrattle. It has the same effect as a Mage Secret, but only costs 1 more mana and has 2 charges and the opponent can’t force the card to trigger by playing around it, like they can with secrets.

Lots of possibilities for Dorian, definite potential to be OP

I've been doing some climbing with a treant aggro Druid deck, overgrown Beanstalk is pretty sweet but I wish there were better treant generators right now

Thanks Regis for still doing reviews for hearthstone your voice is the only one I trust for the last 8 years. Ik you haven't been as active playing standard hearthstone recently but your efforts to get reviews out is still really nice.

Really hope voice actor for Dorian is the same.

I'd probably like Dorian in Elemental Mage. Drop him on the same turn you reload late in the game and you get all thise good elemental battle cries for a third or fourth board.

its also get nice curve with shaman location,

taelan + dorian for double sargeras or w/e big card you can combo

Old but new regis who dis?

Feels like Dorian will be great in Warlock on turn 6 with plot twist, or on turn 7 with free admission to tutor two minions. Targets for it... my mind immediately goes to the old Thaddius lock pieces which would be great here also. 1 mana Dar'Khan? 1 mana Tickatus?? Yes please!

Dorian is going to be nuts in warrior

Caricature Artist with this can make sure you are getting a big minion

Hey Regis, please explain to me why Mage gets a complete makeover every expansion instead of continuing support for existing decks, like other classes get? I would love to know why.

Expect more wowhobb content with Dorian

plot twist warlock is so back (it never was)

Overgrown Beanstalk is gonna be great paired with the Druid duels hero power… oh wait…

Imo Reverb is way better because of the fact that you can guarantee yours to live and theirs to die with either 1/2 mana, or any small minion to trade with. Funhouse has cool flavor (Darkmoon Faire!) but I don't think it sees any play aside from being a worse substitute for a card that rotated.

i feel like puppet theater may be underrated. just having this on board will force your opponent to play differently. plop this on 4 in a reno list vs reno warrior....go ahead....play bran on 6 i dare you.

I think dorian will be disgusting with the DH weapon, giving a 3 mana 6/5 and a 1 mana 1/1 that discover 1 mana magtheridons 💀

@chaosjimthevoidlord3762

Both have mini, so in total off of one draw from the weapon with Dorian in play you get 4 discovers to try and get mag, 3 of which will cost 1

Druid have a 3 mana spell to reduce cost of every minion in ur deck

Yep. I feel Sonya already needs a nerf as it is. It pops the hell off with the miniaturize/mini pirate pair that reduce the cost of your next two cards by 3.

Plot twist Quest warlock is back !!!

@theonlyron

Ай бұрын

Dorian actually makes the quest part of the deck worse. Here's the math: You have 7 cards in hand plus Plot Twist/Gaslight, with Dorian on board. You Plot Twist the 7 cards away, and 4 of the 7 new cards you draw are minions. For each minion you draw, Dorian adds a Mini copy of it to your hand before you draw the next card. This means that as you try to draw from an empty hand up to 7, Dorian adds 4 Minis to your hand mid-draw, which causes you to mill the final draw and proc the quest one trigger fewer. This is assuming he works mid-draw, though, which we have yet to see.

Okay gigantify seems REALLY really strong - probably the most powerful keyword for arena yet
