Eeeehh.. If it weren’t for Battlescar it would have been the first actual 1 Star card at the very first glence, in my opinion, that not even Treant Druid would consider using, However it does encourage the opponent to use AoE Spells to try and counter attack.
I think You will get Buff first, and then your opponent will get the spell activation. Sooo… Come to think of it, I think Druid and Paladin will at least give the Crossroads a Try, and see if they would like using this card. I’m actually going to give it 3 Stars. I know a lot of people are going to give it just 2 or 1 star, maybe even 0 for how trash they believe Crossoroads is, BUT! If you were to play Token escifically, I think this is fine, Sure.
1/5 for sure. This card’s text might as well read “your opponent has -1 spell damage”. Which is extremely niche to say the least.
You’re paying 4 mana to make your opponent have 1 less spell damage. Really? Hell no!
That is a lot of stats on a powerful effect, especially since it buffs itself.
The card isn’t the BEST thing in the world but it is incredibly annoying to deal with since it also acts as a mini Never Surrender and can save your board of 3 health minions from something like Hellfire. Could see niche play similar to Ogremancer.
Also worth noting is it buffs itself so you can’t even like Fireball it to get rid of it.
