![]() ![]() From now on, Reborn will appear on cards in (probably) every expansion.īut that’s not all, as the expansion gets a brand new keyword – Manathirst. However, since it fits the new expansion’s theme and the new class so well, Blizzard decided to turn it evergreen. After that, it only appeared once in Galakrond’s Awakening (which utilized mechanics from previous expansions). Reborn mechanic was originally introduced back in the Saviors of Uldum expansion (August 2019). New & Returning Keywords/Mechanics – Manathirst & Reborn It’s not hard to trigger later into the game, but it might be a bit tricky early, where most of the synergies seem to be focused so far (but I’m sure that will change). It means that in order for it to trigger, a friendly Undead minion had to die during your opponent’s turn OR during your current turn. This time it’s “If a friendly undead died after your last turn”. It was solved by making it possible for cards to have two minion types! For example, Patches the Pirate will now be both a Demon and a Pirate, or Plaguemaw the Rotting will be both Quilboar and Undead.īut back to the Undead – just like many other minion types, they have their own synergy. Players have been asking about it for ages, but there was always one problem – a lot of the cards that are Undead already have other tags (like Pirate or Beast), so it would be really awkward. Thematically, March of the Lich King adds a completely new minion type called “undead”. New Minion Type – Undead & Dual-Type Minions If you want to learn more about the class, check out Death Knight deep dive. Do keep in mind, though, that minions summoned from Corpses don’t leave Corpses anymore – that would be cheating!ĭeath Knight will start with whooping 68 cards – 32 added to the Core Set (available for free after finishing DK Prologue), 26 from the new Path of Arthas “set” (which you have to buy for 2000 Gold or 1500 Runestones), and 10 from the new expansion. On the other hand, if you try to put too many Corpse cards, you might run out of, well, Corpses to use. Some cards use those corpses to trigger extra effects, making them much more powerful. Each time a friendly minion dies, DK gets +1 on a Corpse counter. This will create an interesting deck building challenge – you can go all in on one Rune type, use 2+1 to still have access to some powerful cards, but a bigger pool, or maybe go for all 3 for maximum flexibility.Īnother new Death Knight mechanic are Corpses. Which means that you’re locked out of any cards requiring Blood or Unholy Runes. For example, if you want to add Frostwyrm's Fury to your deck, you need 3x Frost Rune. ![]() However, many of Death Knight cards have Rune requirements. 2x Blood + 1x Frost, 3x Unholy, or maybe 1 of each). Each deck has 3 Rune slots and you can use any combination of those (e.g. Death Knight has access to three different runes – Blood, Frost and Unholy. The new class is unique in a multitude of ways, having its own mechanics and deck building rules. Death Knight is the 11th Hearthstone Hero, joining the roster with the March of the Lich King expansion. ![]()
