They're just normal wisps, actually. The "Of the Old Gods" bit is just marketing.

    It's an ok card. A bit too costly, though.

  2. Sirus

    So a more expensive, less useful dark whispers. not impressed here unless force/savage nerf is huge

    1. lennon255

      Broken cards getting nerfed to the ground doesn't make a card that's 6 feet under any good ya know. This card is just awful.

  3. TacoRocco

    5-star rating just for the name.

  4. goodnamethough

    lol its everyfin is awesome but without cost reduction

  5. Captain Falcon

    Savage/Force Combo all in one! Kappa

    This card seems unplayable in any decent deck. Literally any board clear in existence kills the Wisps and you spend almost your whole turn playing them. If you choose the +2/+2 option, it's also crazy overcosted. Power of the Wild is +1/+1 for 2 mana. 2 mana + 2 mana = 7 mana? Err...not so much. Maybe if this was 5 mana, it would be viable. But 7? C'mon.

    1. lennon255

      Mark of the Wild + Mark of Y'Shaarj both give +2/+2. For this card to outvalue those you need to buff at least 4 minions, which is extremely unlikely.

  7. Brownbear

    it's very weak to board clears, as you are spending 7 mana for a bunch of 1/1 bodies. It's +2/+2 to all minions is alright, but requires you to have a board established, it will likely take up much of your turn because of it's 7 mana cost. Similarly to dark whispers, I don't think I'll run this other than in a niche deck. A+ on the name though.

  8. killyridols

    Good for egg druid.

    1. lennon255

      egg druid either has no remaining board to buff or has already won the game by turn 7. This card is completely useless.

  9. Daddybomb

    I thought they'd fired the guy who made Dark Wispers? Why the sudden change of mind to give druid yet another horribly unplayable card in the same set that gives people powerhouses like N'zoth, just like when they received Dark Wispers in the set that released DOCTOR BOOM?

  10. Jordan

    Bloody hell blizzard, why do you even bother, with this garbage ? With the beast buff spell that was released I was actually hoping Druid would not be the next shaman of this expansion what with the force roar nerf incoming, guess I have to choose a new favourite class.

    1. tacomeister

      ahhh poor guy you wont be able to do the same every turn nine now force savage and win

      1. Peace

        Sadly that is the only way a druid can win the game XD

  11. TellerOfTales

    I guess you could get 7 3/3s with hobgoblin XD

    1. samX500

      sadly hobgoblin only work whit played minion so it don't even work XD

      1. iron

        *cough* at least you could get 6 1/1 divine shields if you could steal the new paladin card

  12. RoloSong

    may be too costly for token druid?

  13. gbw

    new meta summoning stone druid?

  14. Alice

    The real question is; Is this worth playing over Cenarius, which has the same effect and more flexibility, AND a 5/9 body ?

    1. iron

      Knife juggler value anyone :D

      1. Nightfall

        might as well play dark whispers, its 1 mana cheaper

  15. Othy

    This awful card made me realize it would cool if they made a druid legendary with an effect of "Whenever you 'choose one' on a druid card, the other is chosen as well." If was costed appropriately (highish cost with a reasonable but not unremovable body), it would at least make something like this which is otherwise likely to never see play be playable in fun combo decks.

    1. CD001

      That would actually buff this card to being the same as the 10 cost "Mirror of Doom" you can get from Rafaam... that might actually make it playable :)

    2. BBQ chicken

      Wish fucking granted

  16. Mike Jensen

    Lets say you have a decent amount of minions on board and you play this. You choose the +2 +2 effect, and then after that you use savage roar :P

    Your hero gets +2 attack and all of your minions get +4 attack and +2 health

    :O :O

    1. Kalo

      This idea dies at the "you have a decent amount of minions on board" part.

  17. Yogg-Saron Hype?

    Hold up guys, we all know this card is awful. Dreadful, really. But this card has a lot of potential is Yogg-Saron is played. Yogg-Saron can use wisps of the old gods, which makes the card much better, in theory. If Yogg-Saron casts this card then it provides a much larger board in case everything goes wrong and he starts fireballing or pyroblasting your own board, or it provides a much larger board for him to distribute buffs on your side. Again, I'm not advocating playing this card, but it might be pretty good if Yogg-Saron casts it.

    1. Yogg-Saron Hype?

      *if Yogg-Saron is played.
