Rogue Location: Sinstone Graveyard

Rare ¡ Location ¡ Murder at Castle Nathria ¡ Summon a / Stealthed Ghost. (Has +1/+1 for each other card you played this turn!)

Its like half an Edwin with stealth where you dont have to spend the cost to play it on the same turn.

It’s basically two Biteweeds that can be precast:

Epic · Minion · Journey to Un’Goro · Combo: Gain +1/+1 for each other card you

Stealth helps, but Biteweed never really saw much play since being only half the size of Edwin makes a huge difference.

On the other hand, with two copies of the location, you ultimately can get four Ghosts, so maybe that changes things a bit.

I never played during Ungoro, but Im assuming it is much easier now to play multiple cards in the same turn now than it was when Biteweed was in standard, I feel like this is just a solid card to put in your deck, even if the ghost only becomes like a 5/5 or something

Look how big you can get (old) Edwin.

It won’t be a surprise to make this thing huge.

Finaly a rogue flavour card that fits our identity like it alot.

One important question is are the ghosts “buffed” with the extra stats meaning it could be silenced away, or are they like jade golems or the minions spawned by arcane overflow or dark alley patct where it’s a separate unit with the corresponding stats (and mana cost)

I could see arguments for both.

edit: reddit/twitter says it’s the latter

This card has my seal of approval for rogue. Finally a use for that 3/4 beast deathrattle card in rogue

Blizzard dev confirmed that the buff is permanent, so stats dont disappear with silence.

This is definitely going to see play. It’s like having 2 mini Edwins that you don’t have to play this turn and they are 0 mana the turn you want to use them.

So it’s a 0 mana 1/1 that gains +1/+1…this means a solid turn 4 where you cycle cards can net you a massive minion like a 7/7 along with whatever else you play…

This is going to see tons of play in Miracle Rogue decks.

It’s much bettter than Biteweed. You can drop it whenever you have tempo to spare and save the charges for when you have the big combo turn or if you need an extra tempo bump on a normal turn. It’s a 2/2 with just 1 card played so not great but also not terrible tempo for not much investment and it just gets better from there if you have the huge combo turn. You can even stack 2 of them on the field and use 1 charge each on the huge combo turn.

I don’t know if I can call myself a warlock player anymore. I’ve hardly touched it this expansion. I’ve been sticking a lot more to mage and demon hunter. I’m almost at 500 wins with DH, giving me a little more motivation to continue playing it.

I’ll probably return to my roots next expansion. I can’t wait for some warlock reveals!

Correction: 562 DH wins. Working on 1,000.

bitterweed costs 2 mana

the location doesnt cost mana to activate its effect only to set it on the board as far as i know

You sure it’s free to activate? Thought you had to pay the same cost again to activate as you paid to play it?

Yes 1000000000% sure its free to activate.
