Speaking of things that are very different, Shadow Priest is somehow real, and nobody saw it coming. The Rogue and Shaman Questlines both feel very flavorful, and also present new ways to play the classes. Hell, the deck doesn't even need to play the Demonslayer Kurtrus reward before killing you-the cost reductions racked up along the way are enough to enable the lethal combo. Going back to the Demon Hunter example, the reason it's possible to cut Skull of Gul'Dan is that the Mana reduction from the Final Showdown Questline works out the same, but for a fraction of the cost. Questlines differ from previous quest cards because they contain three steps, each with a relevant payoff, making the decks much less tricky to build.

The Final Showdown is all about racing through your deck, discounting the cost of the cards you draw in the process, and then releasing a one-turn torrent of lethal bullshit. (Although Skull is still the right pick off Illidari Studies sometimes-just ask poor old Jambre.) The strategy is so effective that the deck no longer plays the monstrous Skull of Gul'Dan. That deck also got better with United in Stormwind thanks to the addition of its Questline, which discounts the cost of the cards you've drawn. The only reason it hasn't been nerfed already is that it's tough to play correctly, so the winrate drops vertiginously when piloted lower down the ladder. OTK Demon Hunter with the Ilgy'noth combo remains an absolute menace among high Legend ranks thanks to its mix of obscene healing and single-turn damage. The early days of the expansion saw much grousing about a "solitaire meta" because it felt like each player was racing to assemble a combo in hand, rather than playing for the board. Spell Mage is also far from the only from-hand OTK in the Standard format right now. *not a good idea*? (Image credit: Blizzard)

Blood elves are known to have become adept at absorbing, manipulating, and redirecting all forms of arcane, holy, and demonic magics. While there is no specific character or spell with this name, the Spellbender minion displays a blood elf reflecting a spell. The scenario where it's better than Counterspell is in intercepting positive minion Enchantments, such as Blessing of Kings or Mark of the Wild. In many situations, this card is usually worse: while it can neatly block a Fireball or Shadow Word: Death just like Counterspell can, it doesn't block spells with secondary effects, such as the card draw of Wrath or the side targets of Explosive Shot. This card has a similar but more niche ability than Counterspell, letting you intercept enemy spells instead of just cancelling them. Spellbender takes effect after other "Whenever you cast a spell" triggered effects, such as Mana Wyrm or Archmage Antonidas, regardless of order of play.This is because the Counterspell ends the spell casting sequence immediately, preventing Spellbender from triggering. If a Counterspell counters a spell, Spellbender will not activate from that spell.Spellbender activates after the spell has completed its casting phase, but before it takes effect.If a spell with a return to hand effect is intercepted by Spellbender, such as Shadowstep or Time Rewinder, the Spellbender minion will be returned to the hand of the player who played the Secret, not that of the player who cast the triggering spell.Spells which require their targets to meet certain criteria, such as Shadow Word: Death and Execute, will still take full effect when re-targeted to the Spellbender, even if the Spellbender does not itself meet the criteria.
That minion is then made the new target for the triggering spell, be it a damaging attack, a useful buff or even Mind Control.
Regardless of what type of spell triggers it, a Spellbender minion will be summoned under the control of the player who played the Secret.Only player-targeted spells will trigger the secret, not randomly targeted ones. Spellbender takes effect when the enemy uses any targeted spell on any minion, whether allied or not.
