5 new cards revealed

[Dragonkin Sorcerer] – 4 mana, 3/5 Dragon, Whenever you target this minion with a spell, gain +1/+1
[Flamewaker] – 3 mana, 2/4 minion, After you cast a spell, deal 2 damage randomly split among all enemies.
[Core Rager] – 4 mana, 4/4 Beast, Battlecry: If your hand is empty, gain +3/+3 (Hunter Rare)
[Imp Gang Boss] – 3 mana, 2/4 Demon, Whenever this minion takes damage, summon a 1/1 Imp. (Warlock Common)
Getting Better
Warlock!
The Warlock was the 3rd hero I unlocked and went straight to level 10 with. I always played a ‘Lock for fun in WoW, so I wanted to see if I could have just as much fun in Hearthstone.
We will take the starter basic deck and substitute in what our Patrons pointed out as being much needed for your first Warlock deck.
1x [Stormwind Knight] —-> 1x [Mortal Coil]
2x [Bloodfen Raptor] —-> 2x [Power Overwhelming]
2x [Bluegill Warrior] —-> 2x [Darkbomb]
2x [Shadow Bolt] —-> 2x [Flame Imp]
1x [Ironfur Grizzly] —-> 1x [Doomguard]
2x [Gnomish Inventor] —-> 2x [Murloc Tidehunter]
1x [Stormwind Champion] —-> 1x [Imp-losion]
The Mulligan
When going first you want to try to have [Mortal Coil], and/or [Dark Bomb] for removal and a [Flame Imp] or other 2 mana minion to play.
When going 2nd with the [Coin] you can keep anything you did for going first, except you can allow for a 3 mana minion as the coin will allow you to play that on your 2nd turn.
Play this deck fast!
The Warlock’s hero power allows you to play all of your minions without fear of having no cards to play on your next turn. So play those minions and use them to trade until you can do damage to face. Unlike the face hunter, you will trade often with this deck until you can get the bigger minions on your side and use [Power Overwhelming] to finish off your opponent.
The key cards in this deck are [Power Overwhelming] and [DoomGuard]. The idea is to get the opposing hero to 10 health and clear their taunts/secrets. Then if you have a minion on your side that is ready to attack, use [Power Overwhelming] to give it +4/+4 and play [Doomguard]. Always play other cards before [Doomguard], as his battlecry can discard what you planned to play that turn. =(
Other key cards/combos are [Imp-losion] and [Frostwolf Warlord] or [Stormwind Champion]. I often play [Imp-losion] on turn 4 and the [Frostwolf Warlord] on turn 5 for a nice big dude that will usually stick around.
