Ranger Hero ideas (Hearthstone)

Ranger Hero ideas

Hero - Sylvanas Windrunner; Lor'themar Theron;
Power - Add +1 durability to your weapon; Otherwise, gain a 1/1 Bow.
New mechanics - "Fear;" In life and death, the rangers were known for guerilla tactics and psychological warfare to fight

their opponents.  To reflect this, ranger cards focus around Fear.  Fear (x) lowers the attack of all minions that a

minion or a hero attacks, or is attacked by, by x.  In game, this means that, while the Ranger has largely low-damage

spells and effects, their minions trade much better.  Fear may stack with added effects, like +1's.
Mechanical theme - The Ranger hero has near constant access to a weapon, as well as low cost spells and minions to peck

at the opponent.  Fear and card recycling mechanics make sure that the Ranger can keep pressure up, while trading

effectively with miniosn.  Rangers are weak to removal, and fair poorly against spell-heavy decks.
