    This is a sweet one for a elemental deck I have in wild.

    You heard it here first: hang on to this for the inevitable nerf to its mana cost. Easy 400 dust per extra pull.

    1. Thraben

      There is no way you can pull this off before turn 4 or 5 especially when you go first and even then you'd have yo generate lots of cards and build your deck around it. I don't see why this card would be op enough to get a nerf. If it's strong then it's fair enough.

      ...Unless conjurer's calling makes this busted.

      1. DukeStarswisher

        You're right. Turn 4 8/8 is totally reasonable. What was I thinking.

        Giants have high mana cost for a reason (usually 10+). You'll learn why come this expansion.

  3. Lluadian

    Let's see every twinspell will generate at least 1 reduction quest mage will add cards that reduce cost. In general most mage decks would clear this easily.

  4. EksSkellybur

    Cyclone Mage will love this, but it would be too overexaggerating to give it 5 stars, so I'm giving it 4. but WILL see play for Cyclone Mage.

    Seems good in wild quest mage

  6. fareh

    2 stars, will not see the light of day... Seems strong but its too slow to compete with actual giants

    1. Goldenpantss

      Wrong. It will be a cyclone mage staple. And will make the deck competitive again.

      1. fareh

        Wanna make a bet? Cyclone mage was good just because Conjurers... no way it will be good again

    2. Lluadian

      This says any card that didn't start in deck and there's over 30 that can choose from can be either minions or spells. Some of which can give you more than one card at a time. It's not hard to find cards to play that will lower the cost of this giant.

      1. fareh

        Just test and you will see how hard and slow is to play at least 6 cards that didnt start in your deck to make this 2 mana cost

  7. Jed

    If the mana always follows the cyclone.

  8. Lluadian

    So looking into it there's like 20-26 cards that can give you spells that didn't start in deck some can give more than one and some could end up giving a minion. And this isn't even taking into account quest HP which gives them as well. You probably wouldn't be able to play this quickly but even with other Giants you don't always get them in your hand early anyway.

    1. Lluadian

      And actually I only counted the ones that have spells you get over 30 if include minions. Since this says any card that didn't start in your deck.
