Peaky Blinders…

If *this* was an Elemental it would be alright – it could discover and proc Servant of Kalimos for example… but since it’s not, it’s pretty poor.

Curves into Demonheart in Wild I guess…

In something like Elemental Shaman (where you’d have the Bloodlust option) almost all of your minions are going to be Elementals anyway… but having said that, Kalimos is a better 8-drop.

The problem I see with running Pick Pocket in Miracle Rogue is going to be managing your hand size; what Miracle Rogue *really* doesn’t need is to get lumbered with a handful of minions or expensive cards going into an Auctioneer run – and Pick Pocket itself won’t be a great card to use with the Auctioneer.

However – that’s based on the assumption that it’s a combo-based Miracle Rogue… where the point is to draw your win condition asap (without burning it due to a full hand). It could work in a more tempo/minion focused Miracle Rogue with the Strider – one where the win condition is basically to flood the board with minions, repeatedly. In which case Tess Greymane with a couple of Blink Foxes and Pick Pocket might work.

I still don’t think it’ll be *that* strong on the ladder though – especially if Warlock is rampant… quite often you *really* don’t want to gain random Warlock cards – and the “burgle package” here is, as ever, bad against other Rogues.

Just because people think this will be competitive – doesn’t mean it will be; predictions made by the HS community are very often wrong.

Which, of course, includes me… I don’t think it’ll be a strong competitive card but I could be wrong and it could be awesome.

Pyros and Archmage Arugal – granted they’re both legendaries – or there’s Shimmering Tempest; Volatile Elemental at a push.

It’ll be fun in a meme deck so it *will* be playable … it just won’t be good on the ladder.

In Hunter you could also include Corpse Widow; drop that on 5 and if it survives you *can* drop this Festeroot on 6.

@Stonekeep / @Jonathan – thanks for the clarification 🙂 I wasn’t sure on the mechanics.

lul oops, overlooked that one 😀

I still run one in wild – I think the only spells I have in it are Arcane Intellect and Fireball – so that’s the Arcane Intellects swapped out then 😀

SWH was mainly used with Pint-Sized Potion though … and that’s also rotating out.

This is basically a counter to Dude Paladin but that’s about it … it gives you a chance to clear the weenies just before they drop Tarim.

I’d give it 5* for the flavour – there has to be a way to squeeze this into a Druid deck, surely 😀

Yes it’s expensive – but it’s like Groot got Zerged!

Theoretically though, since Kingsbane keeps any enchantments played on it, if you’ve already played Leeching Poison on Kingsbane, and had it shuffled back into your deck, then Ashmore *should* be able to pull the weapon to your hand.

Though, theoretically, after you’ve played Frost Lich Jaina, Ashmore *should* be able to pull Elementals from your deck…

I’m pretty sure it *won’t* draw either Jaina or Uther … Jaina doesn’t have lifesteal she gives your Elementals lifesteal and Uther equips a lifesteal weapon (if there was a way to shuffle the weapon back into your deck it would draw it I guess).

I could, of course, be completely wrong on this count; it could be any card that just has the word “lifesteal” on it… but I think that’s unlikely.
