Card Review & Interactions

  1. The random spells cast from Scroll of Wonder do NOT count towards the Open the Waygate Quest or trigger cards like Violet Teacher.

    5/5 Card

    For the memes of course - nothing else matters : ^)

  2. Jordat

    As troll as this seems it could actually see some serious play in quest mage

    1. MarmotMurloc

      Sigh, if it really triggered quest mage that is. Unfortunately it doe not trigger the quest, it would be cool if it did though!
      As it is, you just use it for memes and more memes!

    seems good in quest mage

    1. Questerling

      I think the only card which might make it into quest mage is the Spellstone.. Now we only gotta hope iceblock doesn't go into the hall of fame too soon..

      1. whitenerdy

        If it does go into the hall of fame, it will be with the next expansion in March/April, when all the 2016 expansions rotate out of standard.

  4. Me

    Plays this
    Next turn: enbrace the shadow, tree of life
    Yeaaah... 5/5

      Wont it be Just mage spells?

      1. mitpaul

        It says random spell, doesn't use the word mage and I think as long as its not a discover effect, that makes it any class.

        1. Madsnicolaib

          Only mage... duh...

          1. mitpaul

            what do you mean duh? where does it say mage only spells? im pretty sure only discover effects limit you to class spells, random has never done that

    2. Tamerlein

      I'm 95% sure that it's just mage spells.

      1. whitenerdy

        "Random spell", not "random mage spell". Only discover effects are limited to your class, not random generation effects.

    3. Commenter

      This card has been shown on stream; it is random spells from any class, not just Mage spells.

  5. Yggdreigon

    I like the ambush mechanic being explored beyond ambush itself. 5 mana is costly be mage has more than enough draw power now.
    IT's also good the fact it adds 5 cards into the deck (10 total) so it helps not go fatigue with the legendary weapon. So I think this will be mandatory in decks running the weapon

    1. They cycle

      They cycle immediately so it doesn’t really add a card to your deck to keep you from fatigueing

      1. LunarBahamut

        Where does it say they cycle themselves though?

        1. Alex

          It didn't say it cycled for the juggernaut bomb either or the 4/4's from the card that shuffled 3 Nerubians into your deck.

          But they did cycle.

        2. Kenchilada

          The token says that you draw a card after it casts, there’s a filter on this site that lets you add tokens to the list of cards

  6. MorbidArtist

    inb4 sudoku after clearing board and surviving with low hp and Ice Block up...

  7. Miqel

    I like the artwork on this one tho..

  8. Balloon

    The turn after this: polyblast your own face 5 times

    1. LunarBahamut

      It doesn't say 'with random targets', so I assume that you can target a pyroblast at your enemiess face if you'd get that from the random spell.

      1. Simon

        The targets are random, your opponent can draw you cards on their turn and you cannot choose targets or discover on your opponents turn.

  9. CarnivoreApple

    Fuck yes, casino mage is back bby!
    May the rng be ever in your favor!

  10. quest question

    Does this trigger the quest? if so you could just play the quest and this try to survive and get there.

    1. Evident

      No, it doesn't trigger the Quest (I'm going to add some clarifications).

      1. quest question

        not the random spells per say but the card you shuffle in because i didnt start in the deck.

        1. GoldenPants

          Surely it does

          1. 8BitBrain

            I think you need to actively play it to count for the quest

  11. Dan

    In terms of card design, i hate this card. Hearthstone doesnt need to be any more random than it currently is. I mean as the opponent how do you play around this?

    1. CarnivoreApple

      I disagree.
      I love non-competitive random cards like these, they add flavour tobthe game and make it less predictable/dull (like control warlock back in the day)

      1. lekir

        So how often do you play a casino deck like that? and which rank are you at?

    2. Mrthejazz

      King togswaggle + counterspell

      Beneath the grounds

      Psychic scream

      Noggenfogger

      Take extra turns

      Nozdormu so animation of spell takes up entire opponents turn.

  12. Rusty

    Fun card, but also indirect Lyra nerf due to high cost and forced to add randomness to your deck?

    1. Dude

      How is this a Lyra nerf its a mage card?

      1. Rusty

        Yup you're right never mind lol

      2. Kenchilada

        It casts polymorph on the Lyra you got through firelands portal.

  13. fvdcsx

    it just says cast a random spell....does that mean you can choose the target....is there a chance that this may cast a pyro in your own face

    1. Avocari

      No you cannot. I just got fucked in ranked because I healed the opponent back to full hp (from 4) and cleared nearly my whole field....

  14. frantdk

    This is a perfect meme card, nothing more

  15. Blizzard PLS stop

    STOP PRINTING RNG MAGE SPELL CARDS BLIZZARD, FFS

    1. KingArrudar

      Cards like ticking abomination will never be put in anyones deck, but blizzard added it so that it becomes a trap for people who evolve into it.

  16. Xander Raidon

    I did not think Blizzard could possibly make a card more random than Yogg-Saron, but here it is. At least with Yogg you choose WHEN the randomness happens, this is just complete randomness at complete random times.

    1. KingArrudar

      I'm pretty sure scrolls will count toward Yog spells.

      1. lujanimo

        The rogue spider ambushes don't trigger auctioneer, so I wouldn't expect this to count towards yogg when drawn.

  17. KaihatsuJai

    Wow, what a fun card. Speaking as a long-time mage player I can't wait to play this!
    Of course it's not that good, but seriously want to try making this work.

  18. McNugg2710

    I think it could be playable if you get to choose where the spell hits.

  19. crapcrack

    Super fun card !
    Is it competitive? No

  20. CD001

    So - what it boils down to is, for 5 mana, cast 5 random spells ... eventually?

  21. JayKay

    So lets assume that that its only mage spell that get cast. Standard has 37 mage spells(not include quest ,and including the new spells) 7 of thoes requires you to target something that isnt an ememy. 80% of the time you are going to get a spell that should help you(exceptions such as 9 card in hand and arcane int getting cast ect). 20% you will get a spell that can target you or your minions.

    So avg 1 of the 5 spells would be a target spell that cpuld harm you or your minions. The other 4 on avg would be mage spells that should help you.

    Overall good card. It can screw you over and is not that reliable but value is good.

    1. Carletto

      Totaly agree. Cant wait to pull together my new RNG - Yogg deck. :D This will be super fun too. Probably I am the only one but I LOVE the rng mechanism in HS.

      1. Name (Required)

        Same I live for the RNG If i wanted to play a more competitive game I wouldn't be playing hearthstone

  22. Beachloop

    Does the scrolls count towards (5) cost spells played? If so, the synergy with dragoncaller might let this card see play.

    1. Edward

      I was wondering the same thing!

  23. flipflop

    Imagine getting this out of Yog
    Even after his death the randomness continues

    1. LemonGuy

      I NEED THIS SO BAD!

  24. phi

    This card is so awesome! imagine with quest! even without quest its good but with its perfect. Yogg after this would be rng maddness !

    1. phi

      oh wait.....I just read that it does not count towards quest. Lame!! does it work with new dragon caller legend at least?

  25. Rubz

    I want to see this get cast, then later one of the scrolls casts it again... SO MUCH RNG!!!
