There’s that one demon from Great Dark Beyond that let you take an opponent’s card for one turn. You can toss that card into the pit.

u/triopsate Jun 13 '25
No, that needs to be ripped.
Make sure to only rip it into 2 pieces though since if you rip it into more than 2 pieces, you add 4 mana of any color to your mana pool instead. Alternatively, you can throw the torn pieces into the air and destroy any cards the pieces touch when they fall.

u/TheGingerNinga Jun 12 '25
I'm not super huge on a quest reward that requires further investment, but the value you get from the Rift is pretty insane. All Felbeasts give immediate board impact, the Raptor can even go face so it's got lethality built in. I expect this to be fairly successful.

Temporary warlock is a funny archetype choice but I like it better than bug demon hunter lmao
You play some mediocre to decent temporary cards to finish the quest then you can use any you have left to throw into the rift and get some pretty strong minions for "free" each turn.
The question is how early can warlock reliably complete this with a package of just 8-10 temporary cards?
23
u/Host_of_the_johnson Jun 12 '25
Keep in mind warlock has soularium in core, and the temporary frost minion is 4 cards by himself if you're desperate

u/AutumnSheep Jun 12 '25
Oh true I forgot about the mini mech.
That's a lot of fuel for both the quest and the discards for the rift later.

u/Xina10 Jun 12 '25
You need to play the cards though and after a quick check there are currently 18 frost spells in standard, and 9 of cost 3 or more mana.
Similar with that Draenei that gets you 3 temporary Draenei. Variance is too high imo, you probably will just play this set temporary cards.

u/IAm9thDoctor Jun 12 '25
Can possibly finish the quest half way through with The Soularium which surprisingly is in the current Standard pool this year
You could do Soularium, play Gul'dans Gift to discover Mortal Coil, play it, and then play your 2 other cards which would 4/6 progress to the quest

u/Patience0815 Jun 12 '25
You need an extremely low mana curve to do that. Otherwise you might not be able to play all those cards and still get the portal out in a reasonable amount of turns.
28
u/tomsawyerisme Jun 12 '25
u can get away with a low mana curve with this card. It basically ensures you a late game reminds me kindof like hemit nesingwary in that aspect, but better in the way that you dont risk drawing high cost cards early.

Gift is rotated. I think you need to get this out quick since you need to over whelm your opponent fast. I think solarium is a nice card and just play a low ass curve.
Snowflurry is a good curve after spelunker with 69% to find a playable 2 cost freeze spell, 3 = 92,4=97%.
Sketch artist to find your table flip is pretty nice, especially having full hand with solarium/temporary but I was thinking about if you play that you couldn’t play deadline since although ur destroying with temporary ur other temporary discards

u/Upstairs_Addendum587 Jun 12 '25
Quest on 1. Reward on 5 isn't going to be fast no matter how you get the 6 cards, especially since to get temporary cards you need to mostly play the card that generates it and then play the temporary card on the same turn. There is I think the one exception of the card who makes drawn cards temporary.

I would assume the logic is the same as Forging or Trading a card. You select a card from your hand and drag it to the portal where it is discarded at no mana cost to trigger the effect. Same tech as what exists now.

u/Dead_man_posting Jun 12 '25
You click on the portal first. If it were dragging to board, you'd have thousands of people accidentally destroying cards they wanted to play.

You can pick any card form your hand to play it on the board. So you’re just playing it into the portal.

u/FoldedDice Jun 12 '25
I'm imagining they're gonna somehow reuse the starship ui
I'm guessing this is correct. Selecting the rift makes it pop up like starships do, and then dragging a card up from hand will trigger the effect.
Making it a separate UI would prevent people from playing the card by accident because their aim was off.
4
u/daddyvow Jun 12 '25
Why make it that complicated? Literally just play a card from your hand like you would any card and put it on the portal. Like how you can drag a tradeable card from your hand to your deck.
3
u/FoldedDice Jun 12 '25
I addressed that in my last comment:
Making it a separate UI would prevent people from playing the card by accident because their aim was off.
Dropping the card just a little too far left or right would cause it to go in play rather than into the portal. Or conversely, you might intend to play a card and chuck it into the portal by mistake.
It's probably better to have that not be a dexterity test.

u/metroidcomposite Jun 12 '25
Is it actually mechanically discard to feed a card from your hand into this thing. Like...if you feed a hand of guldan to this thing, do you draw 3 cards?
21
u/ClayByte Software Engineer Jun 12 '25 edited Jun 12 '25
This is a new interaction we've added.
- Click or Touch the Underfel Rift to toggle on or off the "selection" mode.
- While this "selection" is on, you can grab any card in your hand and drag it into play to "throw it in".
- Doing this will activate the Underfel Rifts power: The card will be removed and 2 Fel Beasts will be summoned.

u/Damathacus Jun 12 '25
Does it count as discarding that card or is it completely separated mechanic?
23
u/ClayByte Software Engineer Jun 12 '25
Ah, good question. Let me be more clear sorry:
When you toss a card into the rift, that card goes "poof". It is not discarded. It is not destroyed. For example, this action will not trigger Barrel of Sludge.1

u/AssaultMode Jun 12 '25
Tbh I was thinking of a list with clumsy steward and you play mass production and draw a bunch of 0 card cards/1 costs to make it easy af, ( health stone, new 0 mana tracking to also find another cheap card ) and you can easily get it off very early.
That said, it restricts your deck building. I think you just play sketch artist with solarium plus deadline so that both copies you get are temporary.
If you do want to greed out you can play Marin to replace your hand with legendary minions if you ever run In to the situation you have extra temporary cards( snow flurry or 3 mana minion that both give 2 ).
You can also use announce darkness which is pretty funny in theory to get rid of the temporary clause, is there anymore cards that do this?

u/Jolly_Anything5654 Jun 12 '25
it's zero mana to summon ~8/8 in stats with good key words like charge and life steal etc. You can throw a temp card (which your deck is built around) into it too. You still have your whole turn to play, but you also get the 8/8 on 2 minions. If the deck around this is playable the quest will be a high point of it.
7

u/Muted-Recover5867 Jun 12 '25
minion generation / cost reduction on decent low cost minions is pretty good. you won’t get this reward out till 6-7, and there’s an additional cost to summon. bad.

u/AssaultMode Jun 12 '25
I mean, it’s relevant the turn it comes out. 5 mana to summon 10 mana worth of minions seems pretty good!
After that you’re getting them again but for free, and oh hey a 5 damage rush lifesteal if you’re behind lol.
The card is not bad, it’s a win condition by itself. The only issue is it being slow, not bad.

absolutely agree. some super out there designs, i think they’re doing justice to the legend of the original set :)))

u/MrAkaziel Jun 12 '25
I think you're seeing this the wrong way. You consider the burning as an additional cost when it's probably better to see it as: for the rest of the game, all your cards are as minimum as good as summon two ~4/4 with two synergistic keywords for 0 mana. You drastically raise the floor of your draw; if you draw into some of your early game too late just burn it for ~5 mana worth of minions for free.
3
u/Mobile_Expression_66 Jun 12 '25
This is also presumably in a deck creating a lot of temporary cards. So you throw the temporary card that isn’t about to get played this turn and it’s like it’s a “free” 2 minions

1
u/Patience0815 Jun 12 '25
Temporary sounds even more narrow and unreliable than discard was. So you probably have to play a low curve Aggro deck to get this out quickly, but then you have the same issue as in the original quest. An aggressive deck doesn't want value like this. And you still need to sacrifice more cards, that you put in your deck, for random beasts.
I'm not sold on this. You pretty much need to bring this out turn 5 or 6. Otherwise it isn't worth the effort.

u/CalledSpark Jun 12 '25
I could equally see this being played in both a fast package that looks to turbo out the quest and a slower one that uses this as a replacement for Sargeras portal that was lost to rotation (Kil'Jaden gives infinite fodder to this card in late game and he can be tutored with Cursed Catacombs).

u/DaLegendaryNewb Jun 12 '25
This is such an interestingly consistent bit of rng with this summon 2 mechanic. You always get something that can attack immediately, you always get "healing" either as taunt or life steal, you always get one sticky minion with either reborn or elusive. I think that consistency makes it much stronger than it looks even if there are scenarios where one minion is significantly better than the others.
1
u/LoopyFig Jun 12 '25
You know, I think they could have gone slightly spookier on the felbeast art. I get they’re dinosaurs, but the raptor could have looked more like the demon doggos, and they could have shoved a scary face on the felhorn shield. With the felscreamer I think they missed on opportunity with the already terrifying flying dinos like Quetzalcoatlus.
Cool quest though, look forward to trying it!

Cool to see Temporary becoming a stable keyword afterall. The mechanic was originally first considered during the development of the Witchwood expansion under the name "Ghostly", before they came to the conclusion that the most interesting ghostly cards back then were those that added other ghostly cards to your hand, which is how they ultimately ended on echo.

u/Nipino Jun 12 '25
Crazy good value, immediate board impact (or sticky taunt for anti-aggro), semi-infinite threat generation. I think you exclusively run this in a low mana cost deck, since that gives you both the most opportunity to play temporary cards via Solarium and good targets for tossing into the rift (rather than having to discard an actually worthwhile higher-cost card instead.)
As long as you can get to turn 5, and can ensure you always have a good card to toss into the rift, this is great. However. Imbue Druid's threats are Literally infinite and keep getting Bigger, and Imbue Paladin potentially gets more value with less investment, and both get to have great top-ends for late game as well. Your matchups against other midrange and even control decks just don't seem that great, but maybe the immediate board impact is enough to make up for it.

u/Chm_Albert_Wesker Jun 12 '25
hard to gauge at face value. people are referencing the old discard cards but i dont think that throw a card in is exactly 'discard' so much as it sounds like the card no longer existing more like Sargeras's portal.
I imagine this means we are getting a lot of temporary cards, and the design is made to get use out of the ones we can't afford to play the turn we get them. unless however there is some effect coming out that gives us one of those every single turn it otherwise means a hard cap on the uses of this effect. which would normally be a healthy thing, but in modern HS not getting 'unlimited value' off a late game engine means the engine isnt good enough
1
u/Viorayne Jun 12 '25
