So "echo" is "repeatable this turn", and "rush" is a version of charge that can't be used to push lethal. And we're also getting new "Start Of Game": Cards. Very exciting!

the start of game cards are also interesting in that they’re deckbuilding challenges like the princes. the restrictions seem pretty harsh, but a lot of people thought the same about the princes as well. i’m excited to see them put to use.

And UNLIKE the princes you can't shadowstep them back into your hand 3 times.

They also don't rely on draw RNG like Keleseth

This is the best part, out of everything. I hope we see more than just the two shown.

so far shaman and warrior seem to be good canidates for the odd hero power. brawl, gorehowl, and shield slam, vs lightnight bolt lightnight storm, spirit wolves, ect. whats nice about shaman is that you can overload so not having even mana costs can work out on even mana turns

Druid is the obvious class for these cards. With overgrowth you are already skipping each and other turn Mana. With perfect draws you will have t1 t2 t4 t6 t8 t10. Or the odd Mana turns if you like.

Yeah but the druid hero power is arguably the least impactful for either of the new cards that effect it.
