Hearthstone Lost City Of Un'goro Card Reveal: Demon Hunter Quest Unleashes The Swarm

For the next Hearthstone expansion, we're going back to the Lost City of Un'goro with another swashbuckling adventure. And since any such adventure needs an angry swarm of stinging insects, we have the Demon Hunter quest. With the Unleash the Colossus quest, you'll get regular tempo plays to inflict damage, followed by a reward that will make your future stings that much more deadly.

For those unfamiliar, Hearthstone quests are 1-mana spells that always start in your hand, and give you big rewards for completing their objectives. Demon Hunter's quest, Unleash the Colossus, challenges you to deal exactly two damage to an enemy on your turn, a whopping 15 times.

This may be an especially tricky proposition for Demon Hunter, whose hero power only deals one damage by default. But the full Demon Hunter quest package is built around giving you lots of options to deal exactly two damage, with a variety of new beasts to deliver the 2-damage stings. There's Gorishi Wasp that hits for two damage and gives you access to the Gorishi Stinger spell, which then delivers two damage twice more. Infestation, a new spell, also gives you Stingers. There's also the new Insect Claw weapon that gives you two charges of a two-damage strike, Gorishi Tunneler that acts as a two-for-one trigger of the quest by damaging both its target and the hero, and the 1-mana Silithid Grub with rush. Finally, while not a direct trigger for the quest, Silithid Queen synergizes well with the rest of the package by giving you big damage if you played a Beast the previous turn, thanks to its Kindred keyword.

So after delivering multiple stings against your opponent, you'll be rewarded with the Gorishi Colossus, a 5-mana 8/8 Beast that doubles your 2-damage attacks from that point on, for the rest of the game. That makes it very efficient at cutting down your opponent with lots of low-damage attacks, which Demon Hunter tends to excel at.
