Muck Hunter

Mana Cost: 5        Attack: 5        Health: 8
A well stated card with a pretty heavy downside, Muck Hunter is a very fair card that requires you to have a way to clear the 2/1 Mucklings to take full advantedge of its high stats. An example of a good use of this card would be playing it while having a "Despicable Dreadlord" on board to clear the 2/1's. Due to the balance of this card it does not seem strong enough to see competative play. In arena this card would be good, esspecially in mage or rogue who have Hero Powers to deal with the 2/1's.

Overall this card is strong but likely not strong enough to see competitive play.

Redband Wasp

Mana Cost: 2        Attack: 1        Health: 3
A poorly stated card with rush and a +3 damage enrage effect, Redband Wasp is potentially a 2 mana drop that can kill a 1 mana and contest most 2 drops. The chances of this occuring though is extreemly unlikely and due to this, is a very weak card and is unlikely to see much play. In arena this card is also on a slightly low power level and unlikely to be picked often.

Overall this is a weak card and is unlikely to see much play.

Lord Godfrey

Mana Cost: 7        Attack: 4        Health: 4
The second and final Warlock Legendary to be revealed, Lord Godfrey is essentially a larger "Defile at a higher cost but offering a 4/4 body. Simply from the fact that Defile is used in almost every Warlock deck along side sometimes Spell Power, I would say this card is extremely powerful and is very likely to see competative play. In Arena this card is unlikely to see play as it is too conditional.

Overall this is an extremely strong constructed card and will likely bolster the strength of Warlock as it is now.

Hunting Mastiff

Mana Cost: 2        Attack: 2        Health: 1
A poorly stated card, Hunting Mastiff acts as a board clear for a considerably high cost at 1 mana per damage. At such a high cost Hunter has many other options for direct damage to minions such as "Explosive Shot". Due to this Hunting Mastiff has to rely on damage buffs such as "Leokk" which is very highly situational making this a weak card for constructed play. In arena the low stats of this card may look off putting but I believe that Echo is extreemly valuble in arena making this card a very tempting option.

Overall this card will likely not see much play in constructed but has high potential in arena.

Forest Guide

Mana Cost: 4        Attack: 1        Health: 6
Another card which seems to support the Hand Size Druid idea which was shown with "Wispering Woods", Forest Guide draws both players cards but with the Druid gaining a larger advantedge with Hand Size cards. The strength of this card and both prior revealed Druid cards will likely rely on more future cards supporting this deck type so I cannot say for certain the cards strength. In arena this card will likely not be picked due to the weak stats.

Overall this card highly relies on other cards and will likely only see play if Hand Druid becomes a constructed deck.
