New Rogue deathrattle card

I’d love to tell you the name of the card, but the truth is the reveal was done in Japanese (I believe) and there was no info shared in English. So I’m protesting since this is not the first time it happens.

It’s a 4 mana rogue minion that, when it dies, returns a minion from the opponent’s board to the opponent’s hand. It’s Sap as a deathrattle.

I’m gonna venture a guess that the name is ‘Sahket Mercenary’

First, I love her art. She looks cool! Anyway, so a Rogue minion with solid stats for its cost and Sap effect. Looks like a very interesting card, although slow with her effect since it’s a Deathrattle, and your opponent can play around it. But since she’s a pirate that helps and makes her a lot stronger with Captain Hooktusk, obviously.

Could be a very cool card in Pirate Rogue. Not really expecting Deathrattle Rogue to become a thing thanks to this card but imagine how cool it would be if you could trigger her Deathrattle with Necrium Blade or even Necrium Vial? Very unlikely it could be done consistently enough, and Vial is way too expensive most of the time without Preparation. But it’s an interesting idea regardless. :slight_smile:

your opponent not only can play around it, he can use it to his advantage.

I don’t think this is even meme-grade.

I agree on the art though :wink:

I’m feeling kinda bad that I don’t like the art… the Sap effect… looking forward to get back my Jade Spirits to hand. :stuck_out_tongue:

well we get to see the belly button of a girl. ever since cleavage-gate, that’s as far as it goes with the things that really matter in a card game.

I don’t like her a little bit, she’s cutting the rope so her friend will fall, she even waited to get some height so he/she would suffer sever injuries, I really want the art changed for this one

as for the effect, it’s a good one with Necrium blade, this on 3, the minion on 4 and you got a 4 mana 4/4 sap, I really don’t think this will be good, not if the 2/4 mech that made a 1/1 poisonous rush wasn’t, it’s a sadly lacking card, wouldn’t play it as a 5/5 XD

Ha ha this was literally my first thought! Pogo Bunny loves this card! :stuck_out_tongue:

I actually think this is alright. It curves nicely into Prep+Raiding Party -> Necrium Blade -> Suckit Mercenary, denying your opponent precious early-game in case they have a big minion up. It’s not exactly game-breaking, but it’s alright and I think it’ll see play.

Seems bad. Can probably use it for some memes in wild but a bounce deck without vanish is going to be tough to do in standard.

You severely underestimate Sap’s tempo value, especially if it’s packaged with a 3-mana 4/4 (average value since you can’t play Prep with it)

I thought it was called “Sarkhet Sapper”

Blizzard, don’t tell me that the word “mercenary” is just as risqué as the word “mistress” to you, is it?

At least I can still stare at Illidan Stormrage’s muscular chest, they are really slow to censor that…

Technically all the minions on the cards are naked underneath there clothes :stuck_out_tongue:

No I don’t, Sap is ridiculously good, this however is an untargeted deathrattle. So pretty much every time you can’t trigger it with the blades deathrattle, it’s bad and at times even a liability.

so blizzard could turbocharge the keyboard industry by getting rid of the clothes and let da bois drool over their keyboards for eternity. small world :smiley:

on a more serious note: I wonder how well a XXX version of HS would do financially. I mean, it would just be a skin (pun intended), so both versions could share a playerbase.

make this a battlecry or combo and maybe we’ll talk

that’s one I’d pay for, I mean, you go from cards like Aviana, Frost Giant and end with cards like Bloodreaver Gul’dan, that could be …many kinds of fun
what I’m most excited for is that maybe, maybe now heroes would no longer be allowed to have armor

well there are plenty of games out there that have had XXX mods made for them. Feel free to start work on a Heartstone XXX mod :stuck_out_tongue:

Personally though, I’m not sure I’d want to see XXX Hagatha :nauseated_face:
