2 stars, useless, bad stats, and you have to have outcast to have the effect. The ability isn’t great either
4 stars, not because it’s good, just because it will make elf combo people BabyRage and that’s funny to me.
Lol
Crazy high variance with this card to me. You get the Outcast off and MOST of the time you’re gonna majorly screw with your opponent while simultaneously getting to spy on his hand. Otherwise it’s a 4 mana 4/3. I’m going 3 stars, but it could easily end up as 5 or 1 in my opinion.
There’s no reason for this card to be outcast. If it was a battlecry and the outcast shuffled all 3 in i think it would be good, but the fact that its abusing such a strong keyword for such a small effect is overkill.
This is really just used to find out a force read, and I feel like once the meta is settled, then i just feel like this card is kinda useless in my opinion. I get the flavour that you want to make them waste an Extra turn. Maybe they somehow they have a cheap card upon late game, and they don’t want to draw that; or you could be using Bad Lack Albatross and make them up an Albatross in their deck, but that’s about it.
I see it more fore training wheels for what deck they are using for the first 2 weeks before the meta is settled, and once theirs a new meta, just grab this again and play for a few games, and them remove it again.
I REALLY just don’t see this card being useful enough. 2 stars.
I’ll be honest, copying degenerated Magic mechanics like discard, steal, disrupt opponent’s cards / deck – is garbage design. Although, I’m not scared of this particular card, no healthy game experience can emerge from this kind of design. Team 5 is printing it anyway in numbers, so it’s obvious how they intentionally want to promote toxicity. Or they are simply clueless?
Great card that would work really well if ended up played after glide since you could have cut opponents hand size down reducing odds of missing a valuable card in their current hand. I’d say this may seem some use since it can knock off opponents curves, removals, or counter cards.
Everyone hates a know-it-all.
Control DH can play it against other control decks, it might even be useful against Aggro because you can force them into topdeck mode quicker. Harder to Outcast as a Control deck though.
I don’t think you play it in Tempo Hunter, 4 mana 4/3 isn’t good tempo even if it might let you dodge an AoE. Could be wrong.
For 3 mana this would have been playable. Too expensive and not a very strong effect. 3 stars.
Annoying but unlike glide I feel this is acceptable.
What would happen if this shuffled a card that was previously buffed? For example, what would happen if a weapon drawn with Corsair Cache was shuffled back into the deck? Would it lose or retain the buff?
Cards lose their buffs when they get shuffled in
Stonekeep – I really don’t understand…I thought hand disruption was a warlock class strength? And yet, they’ve only gotten 1 hand disruption card per year?!?
2019 – Chaos Gazer(Peter Whalen even made a comment about adding more hand disruption to warlock)
2018 – Demonic Project
2017 – Gnomeferatu(technically destroys from deck not hand)
Who actually said that? Did anyone?
“Disruption” is listed for the warlock strengths on the class identity post that Team 5 put out last year
That was before demon hunter was a thing.
Yay another unfun annoying DH card.
Totally, this card can get to fuck!
Actully not so bad.
Warlock can discard opponents card and priest can look at opponetns card so this is a bit of a mix. But way better then discard. And don’t affect draw that much.
SO strong, unbelievable. Keep in Mind that this card reduce your Hand by 1 Card, you dont draw another card, its just gone.
DH became a class wich directly interacts with your opponents hand, this is the second card in the set from DH wich can disrupt your opponents hand.
This is annoying as fuck
I think this might see play in a Super-Aggro Demon Hunter list where you can reliably Outcast this on 3 or 4 in order to remove enemy removal like Holy Nova, Rolling Fireball, Hellfire, Crazed Netherwing, ectr.
The other use is to get Aggro and Murloc Decks out of cards even faster, which can win you an aggro matchup.
However, this faces both outcast restriction AND bad stats, so it’s gimmick might not be worth it, depending on the Meta. I’m sure there is a world in which Spell Mage and Face Hunter are the Top Decks and this is the perfect counter, but this doesnt give it 5 Stars. I think there are more cases where the reward isnt worth the risk of this being a dead card in hand, so 3/5 Stars. But great design!
I’m kind of in love with blizzard right now.
They take their most hated class, with the most op cards (which have been nerf’d 5 times), and give them hand disruption.
They do not give a crap what people think! They know we’re gonna buy the cyber-cardboard crack anyways. The balls on these guys!
Man, it’s like they want us to hate.
I know, holy shit. The classically condition all non-DH players to hate DH. Now they’ve decided hate isn’t good enough. They want a deep rage-fueled loathing right down in your soul.
After seeing this card and Glide, I wonder why coldlightoracle was rotated out of standard
Pure Aids tbh
This class don’t have identity. Drawing cards no Problem, AOE no problem, stilling cards no problem, aggro cards no problem, defensive cards no problem, weapons no problem, shuffle cards no problem and then only one with outcast ????
Anyway that’s only 3 star card.
I guess at this point the identity is supposed to be jack-of-all traits… But considering how well the class does all things it hardly seems legit. Ugh
Blizzard: So I don’t think people quite hate Demon hunter enough, what should we do?
Blizzard later: Makes cards that now mess up an opponent’s hand without any counterplay to prevent it. “Brilliant idea!”
Me a player who likes control decks: : ^)
omg man are yiu serious? i think they an obsession with DH, shuffle AoE on curve to their deck
Really cool and interesting effect but really sucks if it’s not on the left or right and not sure if it’s worth the effect or not but I think it will probably work
4/5
