Hello Everyone to this weeks card review, and we
start with one of the new Hero’s that has been
released from the Dark Portal.
Well I just would like to say just one thing about
this guy, and that is WOW ( and no, I don’t mean
World of Warcraft).
Hunters have great support from the last set with
cards like Fury and Aimed Shot. Add the nice allies
and protectors there are, I can see a few decks with
Azarak emerging.
Sealed: 4/5
Constructed: 5/5
Casual: 4/5
Raid:2/5
See you on the Battlefield

Welcome to Everybody loves orcs week! Today we are
looking at the new Horde hunter hero, Azarak
Wolfsblood! Being an orc is a huge plus for this
hunter because it gives him access to cards such as
Warmaster Hork, and Hidden Enemies. His flip
ability, however, is not so great. In effect, it
blocks the attack of one ally, but doesn't remove
it. His talent spec gets him access to Lightning
Reflexes, which is sub-par, but being a 1-drop makes
it slightly playable, though there are several
better options (Bloodclaw, Voss, etc...). Though
several new abilities have been release that support
hunters (such as the traps), I'd have to say any of
the other hunters would be a better choice.
Sealed: 1/5 (You have your choice of any hunter.
Choose sen'zir if you want horde.)
Constructed: 2.5/5 (Hidden enemies is a nice quest
because it gives any orc in his deck ferocity, and
warmaster hork is pretty nice, but both cards seem
to be a little slow for a hunter rush build, and
horrible for a solo hunter build.)
Casual: 2.5/5 (Too many better options).
Raid: 1/5 (He's either gonna block a whelp, or
exhaust a lot of resources to prevent 1 attack from
Onyxia. Either way, not useful at all.)
Lazy Peon: 1/5 (Better hunter heroes available.)

Azarak Wolfsblood
Well it's Orc week and today's Orc is a hero from
the new Dark Portal expansion.
Azarak has a lot going for him I'm partial to heroes
that can do well in Onyxia and he fits the bill
nicely.
His effect is something you have to put some thought
into before using but man it's killer if done right.
Azarak's professions are also pretty decent. They
don't matter right now but in upcoming sets I
imagine a mining/engineer will be a popular hero
choice especially if he's a hunter.
Sealed:3/5
It's hard to use him effectively in sealed.
Constructed: 4/5
Hunter Rush can make use of him but he's better as a
counter to it.
Casual: 4/5
Raid:4/5
Pay 3 and make the boss lose it's built in attack
while you swing for 8 or so ? Good Deal
