Update: War Stomp and A New Plague
Yesterday, I mentioned two cards in my preview War Stomp and A New Plague. These cards were actually in Scrye and not in the FAQ. For anyone who doesn't know what they do, here they are.
War Stomp
Instant Ability
Cost:3
Tauren Hero Required
Exhaust all opposing heroes and allies.
This card will be good for mid-range and control decks to punch the last bit of damage through annoying protectors (I'm looking at you Magni). It can also act as a Fog in a pinch, but I don't see many decks being able to commit three resources to skipping combat early in the game, but you never know.
A New Plague
Horde Quest
Pay (4) to complete this quest.
Reward: Choose one: If you control an ally in your party you may destroy that ally and another target ally or draw a card. If your hero is an Undead, you may choose both.
One quick note on the you may choose quests for anyone who didn't read it in the FAQ. If you choose to do both, you do them in the printed order from the card. It's not that important with this quest, but with Solanian's Belongings it is important to know this ruling.

Im curious to know your thoughts on the New Plague, B Lyons.
I like A New Plague. Could there be a good deck with the new undead frost mage (actually having some decent healing with Cannibalize...)?
The undead warlock may be even better, though. A better flip ability combined with Eye of Kilrogg (the best card in the game yet). I would play EoK in ANY warlock deck, regardless of the overall strategy.
The Stomp is a little dissapointing, I was really hoping for a little damage to go along with the exhaustion.
New Plague on the other hand looks very very good and should be pretty much automatic in the decks that can use both abilities. I also think it will recieve consideration in any deck that can play it even if they can't complete both parts just because the Sever ability is so strong.
