    For once, I actually think that Blood Witch can now be a useful card. Quite a Strech for sure, but it's still possible. But anyways, I'm sure that Controllock, Handlock, and even Zoolock will enjoy this card, so 4 Stars.

      No point... at the start of your turn its the same as if you damage yourself with Hero Power but getting an extra card... if only where at end of turn maybe...

    T6 play this and tap HP to draw a card and summon a 3 cost card nice Tempo move but balanced I guess because of RNG you skip the battlecry of summoned minion. 3/5.

    I mean it seems good, warlock has a lot of good toys to try out

  4. WizNan

    Great, but there are bunch of bad 3 drops...

    King Mukla leaves the chat.

    Nice, my first thought is this+ spiritbomb + crystallizer on 6. Nice to see all warlock cards released so far seem in the playable to busted range. Zoo should be very powerful, as long as the plague card is good I think control will be good too.

    I like that its a bird, cos it feels like a twisted version of mage's Vex Crow.

    This one has a more powerful effect and bigger body, but its harder to activate

      Right? Love animal cards and ties to vex crow

    A 4-drop with decent stats that can summon multiple 3-drops sounds good to me. You don’t even need to build synergies around this, a deck that fights for the board like zoo can just play this on curve as a minion that demands immediate removal, and if it doesn’t get removed then you can get a bunch of free 3-drops next turn with Flame Imp + Hero Power.

    I think this is a much better fit for zoo than it is for slower decks. 4/5

  8. ReliusRemyRezar

    I see him more in agro-ish decks if they get the space, the problem is, no matter how good the reward is for taking auto-damage, warlock lacks the heal/control cards than he used to have, so you will die almost instantly for trying to pull this off

    1. smegus

      I think the idea is you generate enough tempo to kill them before it matters. Zoo already runs flame imp and crystallizer, spirit bomb can easily fit in. Whats stopping them from running this then?

      1. ReliusRemyRezar

        Like i said, and you confirmed, agresive decks would run this, similar to the annoying crow in mage, and not much, life matters more in control warlock than agro/zoo warlock, with sadly, seems to be the way warlock is playable right now.

  9. Lluadian

    Yeah this will be a good card for zoolock also funny thing if doesn't get removed I bet warrior might regret putting bombs in your deck when this goes and summons mukla. With 3/5 it's got nice stats for it's cost though it's not a card most would want to drop on curve since it loses value. It's more a turn 5 card minimum.

    Hex Crow saw a tiny bit of play, but this is more limited and doesn’t summon 3-drops as fast. Could see some play in Zoo, but that’s about it. 3/5.

  11. Spidermannerdlikeme

    Is it just me or are animal based cards really cool? Maybe cos I play magic so often

  12. ZerefZepher

    Zoo just seems to be getting better and better. I love the new direction they're taking it this expansion. This is vex crow on steroids. 5/5
