![]() ![]() Thorncaller really sticks out from the Tier Three minions. ThorncallerĤ Attack, 3 Health - Battlecry and Deathrattle: Gain a Blood Gem. A good early shop would be Bannerboar and another Quilboar, although on its own it might be a bit slow. BannerboarĢ Attack, 5 Health - At the end of your turn, play a Blood Gem on adjacent Quilboar.īannerboar pairs up nicely with the Bristleback Brute: it will buff the Brute each turn with a Blood Gem if placed adjacent to it. If you've already saved a Blood Gem from earlier this can be an early 7/7 minion. A simple 3/3 unit that buffs up the first Blood Gem applied to the minion up to 3/3.

The update brought four new Tier Three minions: Necrolyte, Bristleback Brute, Bannerboar, and Thorncaller. Again, this is just a basic 1/1 of stats, and it's not a Quilboar. Prophet of the Boar is far more straightforward: once per turn you get a Blood Gem whenever you play a Quilboar. It seems good! Prophet of the Boarģ Attack, 3 Health - Once Per Turn: After you play a Quilboar, gain a Blood Gem. ![]() At first glance, using a Blood Gem to get Divine Shield for the next round seems fine (it's a zero-cost George hero power without the permanent upgrade), but it's when you take a look at the golden version of the card that it gets real interesting: the Tusk Boar will get a permanent divine shield when tripled. Tough Tusk is one of the most interesting minions added in the new update.

Of course, you could put that 1/1 back onto the Roadboar.and again, and again, again. The reward of a single Blood Gem per Frenzy charge basically amounts to 1/1 of stats each turn. Roadboar is a 2/4 Quilboar with a Frenzy mechanic. RoadboarĢ Attack, 4 Health - Frenzy: Gain A Blood Gem. There are three new Tier Two Minions: Roadboar, Prophet of the Boar, and Tough Tusk. The hero power will now give Quilboars a 2/2 whenever you purchase one, and the type of minion rotates each turn. Side-note: although not a new hero, Rat King has received a rework to synergize with the new Quilboar tribe. Over the course of the game, you're likely to save something like 8-10 gold from this hero power, which is a small advantage but nothing that shouts that Xyrella will be anything above an average-tier hero. For the cost of 2 gold, you can grab a minion from the tavern, though its stats get reset to 2/2. ![]() Her Battlegrounds hero doesn't appear that strong. Xyrella arrives alongside her legendary card in the Forged in the Barrens update. Choosing minions that are easy to scale in the first few turns - such as a Demon, or even a Murloc - could make Vol'jin one of the top-tier heroes in the mode.

Putting a +2/+2 on a 1-cost minion is useful during the early turns, for example. We'll have to see how powerful the Quilboar tribe is, although this hero power provides some decent strength even if Quilboars aren't in the game. These 0 cost cards provide a flat 1/1 buff to your minion, but also synergize with many different Quilboar minions.Īt first glance, Blackthorn looks like a pretty strong hero.
