    The big issue with this card is it costs 10 mana. It is very comparable to Onyxia (the good one) in that it at least will clear taller boards, but this is really bad against wide boards of smaller things as you only get 2 attacks as opposed to 7.

    Worth noting is this card at least poses more lethality than Onyxia since if you only clear the hands he domes you for 14 next turn.

    I think this card might be worth considering next year post rotation, but as it stands I don't think decks like Ramp Druid need more late game value and this card is definitely up to get cut before Onyxia or Kazakusan.

  2. Ginnel

    Control Warrior or ramp druid, he can clear 2 minions on his first turn then must be cleared lest you want to feel the pain.

    hm why should i play this instead of Onyxia ?

    This is 2 x 8 Damage (2 x 4 Damage to one target + 2 x 4 Damage to another target) to 2 Targets in total

    Obyxia is 1 x 8 Damage + 6 x 2 Damage to 7 Tatgets in total

    1. Enemy

      Onyxia is better most of the time. But, if you dont have board space or if you summon instead of playing the card, then Neptulon is better. Also, you can get Neptulon from effects that add colossal cards to your hand.

    2. WingedCastaway

      Another factor is I think Neptulon is more likely to retain significant board presence after the clear, which cannot always be said for Onyxia's whelps.
