Get the scoop on the new Fires of Outland expansion for the World of Warcraft card game with our review!

The World of Warcraft card game of fantasy battles just keeps getting bigger! The Fires of Outland expansion adds a heap of new cards full of stuff from the lands on the far side of the Dark Portal. The set is full of Draenei and Blood Elf cards, as well as tons of other stuff. Here's the 411 with Gary's World of Warcraft card game review!

What's New?

This set is another big one with 246 new cards and 18 new heroes to play with. There are heaps more Draenei and Blood Elf heroes and cards, including Lor'themar Theron and Prophet Velen - their leaders! There's even a panda brewmaster card based on the race that was almost added to Warcraft 3. New players can snag Starter Decks with a pre-built hero deck in each, or 15-card Booster Packs add to your collection. Super lucky players might even get one of the three Loot Cards that unlock special items in the WoW video game. Here's what you can get.
  • Goblin Gumbo - A pot of power-up stew that makes you burp!
  • Fishing Chair - A chair to chill in, with an umbrella for shade.
  • Spectral Tiger - An awesome see-through tiger you can ride!

  • The Hot Stuff?

    If you play Draenei or Blood Elf, you need a bucket full of cards from this set! They get a big boost of new cards, and Druids get more Feral cards and new forms, which really helps them out.

    Fizzle!

    There's a lot to this set, but nothing's really new! It's like peanut butter - reliable, consistent and... boring. Some super-powerful monsters like the Ice and Fire lords from the last set would have been cool.

    Hot Enough?

    This set is full of good cards that will help power-up all kinds of decks. It's also great for Draenei and Blood Elf decks. Unfortunately it's all old news! Unless you're working on decks for the two newest races, this set is no big deal.

    Thumbs Up:

  • Lots more Draenei and Blood Elf cards!
  • An awesome burp-making Loot Card!
  • Reaver of the Infinites - woo-hoo!
  • Thumbs Down:

  • Nothing really new, just... more stuff.
  • It's huge, so it's hard to collect it all!
  • Set Rating: 4
