Journey to Un’Goro , is going to herald some pretty big changes when it comes in early April. Not only will it introduce 135 new cards to the game, but it also ties into the next Standard rotation for the game. What does that mean? It means the sets of cards that are played in Hearthstone’s Standard format will change, and we’ll say goodbye to Blackrock Mountain, The Grand Tournament and League of Explorers. Everything will be turned upside down, in other words, and new decks and strategies will emerge, while old archetypes get refined.

Likely to become a staple inclusion for Paladin...

Elise is back! Fun idea, too.

The Warlock Quest. Cool that persistent effects are being explored in this expansion.<span style="font-size: 13px"> </span>

When Sherazin is dormant it stays on the board.

The Priest Quest, along with its absolutely bonkers reward.

A card with Adapt and six of the ten options you'll discover from.

The Mage legendary minion.

We’re starting to get a good picture of Un’Goro now. During the initial reveal, Team 5 introduced key elements like Quests, Adapt and Elementals , and over the weekend another batch of cards were shown during a stream with Day9 . You can see a selection of the cards revealed to date at the bottom of the page.Right now, though, it’s time to show you a brand new card, and it’s a Paladin Legendary minion – Sunkeeper Tarim. This six mana 3/7 has the text “Taunt. Battlecry: Set all other minions’ Attack and Health to 3.”Yes, we may be losing Keeper of Uldaman in the rotation, but we’re getting a SUPER Uldaman in the form of Sunkeeper Tarim. This minion is going to be amazing in anything but the most aggro of metas, and is hugely versatile. Whereas most removals are either single target or - if they're a board clear - tend to have upper limits on damage done (the likes of Twisting Nether notwithstanding), Sunkeep Tarim can negate a single big threat OR it can bring a board of medium to large minions under control. The fact that it taunts is huge too. If your opponent doesn’t have removal or buffs to hand he’s going to need to run three minions into Tarim to clear it off the board.It’s also worth pointing out that Tarim can - depending on the board state - be used when you’re ahead. A more token-focused Paladin is the obvious example, as the tokens can be transformed from 1/1s to 3/3s. And if you are playing a deck that spams the board with small minions, you could also include Dinosize (the eight mana spell revealed over the weekend that sets a minion’s attack and health to 10) for a burst finish if you can get something to stick. Perhaps hand-buff Paladin with Small-Time Recruits will see some play in the age of Un’Goro? Hell, maybe Paladins will still play Murlocs… in which case this card will also make sense.Right now we don’t know how things will pan out. How will Sunkeeper Tarim fit into the Un’Goro meta? Will Paladin be viable in general? We won’t know until April, but one thing’s for sure - this card is nothing if not versatile.Need to catch up?
