What a great card to have in a deck with Hagatha. I’m betting it will see play at some point.

Wait a second the card text and the description are contradictory. What is it? 5 or less or 5 or more?

This was meant for Big Spell Control Mage. Not sure of its viability just looking at it but I will definitely experiment day one.

With all of druid’s ramp capabilities and armor gain, druid can afford to invest a card for the next turn at 7 mana.

You know what’s a better tempo play? reducing a card by seven mana.

You are pretty much playing this card for 0 mana and investing tempo in your next turn. I don’t see how this could NOT see play in ramp or big druid.

Concept and flavor 5/5

viability 1/5

I will experiment day one fo sho

True. But even if a rogue runs a few deathrattles this will have more value.

Face damage on curve is not as big of a deal as setting up for a deathrattle next turn I’d think.

3 mana 3/2 weapons always see play in every class. Even if the rogue isn’t deathrattle, it will definitely be used.

Giving it the deathrattle after choosing the minion kind of makes it redundant, no?

My opponent now knows exactly which card I chose, and they can play around it. A big part of discovering and stealing cards is the secrecy.

@LKGamet I don’t think it will see play either until there are more single target spell options for priest.

But that wasn’t what I was arguing. So many cards that see play right now can be ruined with silence. Saying “but silence” is bad card value insight.

Yeah Priest is my fav too. I am also a little disappointed. But my main want for Priest is an odd aoe spell.

I think this card could work in the distant future with more additions but as it stands…. meh.

It’s a legendary because the theme this expansion is one legendary spell and the heads of the departments of boom labs. If you’re asking about why it’s effect makes it legendary, than you need to understand that:

rarity =/= card value

I actually don’t forget either of those cards because they are a staple of both of those classes. It still makes a bad argument. There are lots of cards that make good targets for silence effect cards and dismissing this card because of said effects is naive.

Silence is always a bad argument. Silence will always be a thing and players should have a sense of how many there are in a deck and bait them appropriately.

If the card texts means you need to have it as a target of a spell, then priest isn’t going to use this right away. There are only so many single target spells priest have access to in standard at the moment.

But I imagine it would be useful given the right spells in the future.

This is not overpowered at all. But it does have some great implications! This should be dropped late game (similar to arcane artificer) for bringing a control deck back from the brink.

holy light + this is exactly like priest’s healing potion and lay on hands will heal 16 and draw three. Plus the new crystology will pull this out of your deck in prep for that moment.

Definitely not something you ever want to play on curve though.

Rarity =/= card value

Yup. Goes to show how much I play Shaman… my bad.

This card would be intended to gain control of the board, not win the game. I think cheating 3 8< minions with rush is a pretty good way to regain control in Big Recruit warrior.

blah blah Yes we get it. Its warrior’s time.

This will most likely be essential for a Big Warrior.
