I need a break, 8 mana 3/6 pre nerf saronite chain gang, and can gain rush from your curve play, just lovely
the lesser Steed is also cool, I love how this blessing of knights can also be used in arena like a better zilliax

Pharaoh’s Blessing:
Basically worse Spikeridged Steed. It’s not a BAD card per say. But I don’t think current Paladin will see any use for this. Mech Paladin would rather use Annoy-o-Module for obvious Mech synergies. And even if more of an Aggro-/Murloc Paladin becomes a thing in this expansion this card is too slow for it. I have very hard time seeing why Paladins would want to run this card currently.
Tomb Warden:
So, this is basically more expensive and stronger Doubling Imp that can be buffed with the new Taunt-minion handbuffing cards Warrior is receiving this expansion.
Thanks, I hate it!
Hate it as in it’ll most likely be a strong card I’ll hate to play against. I still remember the BS deck that was Taunt Druid last year…
And it’s a Mech and thus will have Rush thanks to Dr. Boom, Mad Genius and can be obtained his hero power and Omega Assembly.
Embalming:
This looks like an interesting card, alright. Now the question is; what minion would you want to give Reborn to?
First minion that comes to my mind is Zerek, Master Cloner. You get TWO Zereks on board instead of one when he dies.
And some other powerful Deathrattle minions, such as Mechanical Whelp. Convincing Infiltrator would be obnoxious with Reborn. Maybe EVIL Conscripter, so you get more Lackeys (why doesn’t it give two by default like EVIL Genius does, I have no idea). I don’t think Test Subject comes back with all the cast spells on it still, giving you even more cards when it dies again, so giving Test Subject Reborn is pointless. That’s my assumption anyway.
I can see potential in this card. But I don’t know yet that on what minions you would want to use this because remember; Reborn minions come back with 1 health left, so giving it to big minions or Taunts won’t usually be worth it, unless they have powerful Deathrattles.
Blessing - seems too expensive, I think were going to have a double spellbreaker meta, which also hurts this a lot.
Tomb Warden - Urgh, why give control warrior more good mechs. I really hope they remove the rush from Dr.Boom, as this is just another insane defensive card for that deck.
Embalming - these type of cards usually end up in meme decks and I think that’s where this will also end up…like in my not quite sure what it does priest, I can see me using this with Vargoth on 5…on an empty board
Don’t forget the Odd Warrior of the last meta too. I haven’t hated a deck as much as I hated that one for a long time
At least they didn’t have Taunt wall after Taunt wall due to Hadronox + Witching Hour/Carnivorous Cube shenanigans. Odd Warriors, for me, were annoying, sure. But Taunt Druid was straight out obnoxious and BS.
Plus my Pogo-Rogue deck wrecked Odd Warriors.
Ha ha this is true, they didn’t they just had 10 billion armor and a 2-cost ragnaros fireball once you’d fought your way through all the taunts and board clears
But yeah, pogo rogue would have excelled against it. It’s just a shame it didn’t really have the tools to compete against the rest of the meta. I always loved the concept of pogo rogue and was excited when it seemed to gain tools in this expansion, but…for me…the removal of vanish and the nerf to prep killed it again
