    Seems good

  2. Turboisa

    Good for priest and dragon paladin, or maybe it could even bring back master of disguise rogue

    1. spooky

      oh shit xD
      dragon > conceal >> master of disguise

      1. Zanon

        This>conceal>> cold blood gg wp

      2. jeniok

        Yeh!! The best case turn 5 that 55 paly dragon paly turn 6 - 4(or is it 3. I can't remember the reduction states) mana 2-6 Concele. Turn 7 4 mana master of deguise. And.. we spend 5+4+4=13 mana. And I'm asking myself.. what do we get.. 2 procs... 8-6 "taunt". Well that's bad.
        What about turn 5 - 55 dragon.. turn 6 a much more valuable dragon! Which will give you value immediately. And play some "good doctors" turn 7,8 (not talking about boom)

        1. xXSilverswordXx

          i dun understand wat ur saying

      3. Poison

        :D

      4. Dari9

        This might be an indicator for master of disguise getting changed since the stealth is permanent and this card limits design space (remember warsong commander).

        1. lennon255

          Lets hope that it does because being forced to kill someone within the next 4 turns sucks. Also with Emperor reducing any 2 cards from this 4 card combo (this card + Master of Disguise + 2 Cold Blood) you can get a perma Stealthed 10/8 that becomes a 20/8 the next turn.

  3. Some Dude

    6 mana for 8 health and an attack multiplying ability, very worth it. +its a dragon

  4. Lt. Toodles

    Maybe with a Seal of Champions? But even then, you'd be doing the big no-no of buffing a creature that you just played. Also since Gahz'rilla doesn't see much play, i doubt this one will.

    1. Zanon

      Gahz'rilla is a hunter card while this is a neutral. Secondly, the mana cost is amazing. Turn 8 play this into conceal into cold blood=> a non killable 6-8 that will be a 12/8 when he attacks. Dragon rogue is on the way boys,

      1. SMOrc

        tim 2 brin bak dedly shot

  5. LUL

    priest steals it with cabal and can also steal it with 4 attack with shrinkmesiter

    1. SwaggyP

      shadow word: pain
      shadow word: horror

      1. Grammarpolice

        Horror :d, = Death

        1. Bling

          No, shadowword horror is a new priest board clear that kills all 2 or lower attack minions

    2. iron

      it says DOUBLE the attack , so if you buff it with lets say +3 or +4/+4 paladin cards it will likely survive , and the next turn it will have 10 or 12 attack , so it is a MASSIVE threat as long as you can support it with some damage

    3. Nightfall

      Because shrinkmeister stays around

    4. iTails

      shrinkmesiter is GVG

    5. Necrofear

      Shrinkmaster is being phased out.

    6. Nightfall

      priest is gonna be bad, shrink is gonna go away, shadow word pain is also priest, which is still gonna be bad, shadow word horror sucks and will never see play, I THINK, yeah look again its a preeeettty solid dragon

  6. chris

    LOL Trash.

    Cabal Shadow Priest and Stampeding Kodo make this card abominably bad.

    1. xXSilverswordXx

      cabal is priest specific and kodo is only drafted in arena (unless you are rank 20)
      the answers to this are all priest specific.

      This card is a must kill for a lot of classes,
      With such a high threat level, i think many games will be snowballed with this guy.

      Classes like druid will have to throw spells at it to kill it if they do not have board control, which is very painful. (Trust me, i play druid)

    2. colin

      like how BGH makes Dr. Boom terrible right?

      1. Nightfall

        hahaha dr boom keeps boom bots dr boom always has been that little bit to broken

      2. chris

        you're comparing this to boom? arguably the best card in HS to date?
        How many 7+ attack minions do you see right now - outside of DR Boom because of BGH? boom gets played because he leaves behind the annoying bots.

    3. Poison

      these are just 2 counters

      you also need to consider that this card can be buffed with seal of champion for example and then grows to a 10 / 8

      this card is unbelievable threatening and got instant taunt

  7. sjaak

    Validated doomsayer has a more reliable way of gaining attack. If this lives one turn it isn't big enough and the card is too expensive to buff.

    1. BadBoomBoom

      Blessing of Might?!?!?!

    2. Nightfall

      validated doomsayer is horrible, you can pretty much only play it when the enemy has no minions on the board, otherwise it will lose to much health bevore he got his attack, this dragon has very unique and cool ways of working, validated not...

  8. Matt

    I'd love to try this with Crazed Alchemist.

  9. nonamer

    conceal + cold blood

  10. Ermino

    If nobody noticed it, then I will say it: Grammar Lesson for the writer, it is "your turn" and not "you turn"!
    Looks like spelling is not important in a card game these days? :P

    1. Evident

      Fixed, thanks!

  11. RedKarma

    "Crazed Alchemist" and "Conceal" anyone? :D Coulde be a 16 / 2 IF it survices to the next round ... which is most unlikely but not impossible!

    1. Ragnaroose the Firemoose

      The problem is both crazed alchemist and spare parts are rotating out of standard.

      1. Evident

        Crazed Alchemist is not rotating out of Standard.

      2. Destiny

        Master of disguise

  12. sober667

    for me? only dragon preist and maby pally wits some dragon-ish deck maby MABY warrior with some combo deck any attack buff on that creature is good cause ramp its attack to 8 with inner fire on turn 7? not terrible for me

  13. Poison

    Love this card
    good art
    potentially very strong affect and potentially in every Dragon Deck
    and fuck I love dragons

    1. SDhn2a

      Unfortunately, with so much dragon synergy coming from Blackrock, we won't see many dragon decks in standard. Sounds fun for wild, though.

      1. Evident

        BRM is not rotating out!

        1. Nightfall

          lol I like this dragon its gonna work in some cool way, at least I hope

        2. vanCleef

          Yes it is. The cards in wild will come from classic, tgt, loe, and wotog. The three most recent expansions/adventures.

          1. vanCleef

            that's supposed to be standard cards, sorry.

          2. Kittenstix

            No, they are only rotating out naxxramas and goblins vs gnomes.

          3. Cable

            No standerd will consist of BRM, TGT, LOE, WotOG and classic/expert cards. When the new adventure hits (later this year prolly) BRM will rotate out.

        3. SDhn2a

          Getting ahead of myself, apparently... :P

  14. Devurauxe

    Has anyone realized that the card says "you" and not "your"?

    1. Evident

      Fixed, sorry!

      1. Devurauxe

        It's aight homie

  15. lennon255

    With Blessing of Kings we have a 10 mana 6/12 that becomes a 12/12 the turn after. DON'T MENTION BGH WE DON'T KNOW HOW HARD ITS GETTING NERFED YET.

    1. jeniok

      By the way you are right! So this card has value with buffs. Yeh works great

    2. Halo

      doesnt matter even with bgh. its 6/12 at the end of your turn. they cant bgh it. when its 12/12 you already got your value (assuming you hit face) but even clearing a minion is fine

  16. CallMeDude

    Let me change your mind :D

  17. Xavier1441

    Anyone else wonder why it dosen't have the dragon tag at the bottom?

    1. Evident

      I botched that, it's fixed now.

  18. BlueGideon

    TURN 7: Scaled Nightmare > Inner Fire = 8/8 body, 16/8 on the following turn

    This is looking good for Dragon Priest

  19. Inst4ntKarma

    Ramp Dragon Druid anyone? Or even an Astral Communion Dragon Druid? Put out Deathwing Mk.2 and have him die and pull say this guy, Ysera and Chromaggus?
