You heard it here first: hang on to this for the inevitable nerf to its mana cost. Easy 400 dust per extra pull.

Team 5 committing to a 1 mana 2/2 neutral is proof that their goal is to power creep this expansion.

This is excellent for token and aggro decks Also worth noting that the copy keeps the handbuffs as well.

Yes its design is geared toward control, but I actually think this would slot well in an aggro deck to punish value/control dragon decks in the early game.

“Those soab’s. They finally did it”

I know it may sound like “Go read some Lovecraft” is condescending, but honestly, you really should. That classic sci-fi/existential horror genre is something everyone should read.

Now you are deflecting because that is not what anyone here is arguing. No one is drafting to potentially high roll a randomly generated/discovered one cost that can maybe clear a board. That’s not even something anyone ever considers. If you wouldn’t draft it in a deck before another card, its a pack filler.

Unless Priest receives methods of procting deathrattle multiple times w/o it dying, I just don’t think this is a good tempo play across the board. We will see it against priests who attempt a Galakrond build but its just too slow to stop anything. We could talk if it had taunt, but we are not as lucky.

Mindflayers existed long before Stranger Things buddy.

so you just told me in long form that it is a worse doomsayer. An aggro stall tool is weaker than a board clear. The point I was making is it is still not as good as doomsayer, and since doomsayer is classic, this card will not see play unless they are prepping for HoF doomsayer.

running four low cost removal/stall tools is not great. Two is enough for control alongside spells and other aoe’s. And those two should be doomsayer.

unpopular opinion: This is no doomsayer.

Aggro decks can actually deal with this turn 2 if they wanted. Having 5 attack on the board is not difficult. removing 7 is almost impossible without an extra removal. The only time you would want to play this is turn one which is then only a stall tool and not a removal. Anytime after that, it can be removed pretty easily.

The point is you might as well run doomsayer if aggro is a problem. This just doesn’t scale late game and is not as good early game.

Yeah I don’t know what they were thinking with Frizz. Why do you think a battlecry giving a HUGE discount to dragons (malygos is a dragon) won’t be abused. Rogue can bounce that a ton of times (or shark it) and quest shaman can double the discount. I don’t even want to think about its implications in wild… 10/10 is right.

When I think 10/10, I think break the game/easy nerf target. traditionally healing has never broken the game in hearthstone so I think Amber watcher’s rating is misplaced. It is definitely a good card, but I would not think it as a 10/10.

I feel like this is a must add for any token based archetype. 7 mana is cheap for a neutral card that fills your board with tokens and creates a must-clear target. My mind goes to quest hunter right away. If not removed, it could snowball the game.

If Glimmeroot saw play, this definitely will.

How does “give your opponent access to 10 mana first” mess up the plan of fast decks? instead of 5 mana turn 5 they have 10 mana turn 5 and that would probably end the game.

I really hope you’re joking that a card that reduces your entire hand by one doesn’t have a clear purpose. Are we just pretending that thaurissan doesn’t exist in this meta?

This is duskfallen Aviana except with an 8/8 body. Giving your opponent access to 10 mana first is not ideal and allows them to easily deal with the 8/8. I don’t think this will see play.

If you’re f2p, they won’t miss you. It’s all about money. And THAT is what US companies stand for.
