Sure, it's a Frostbolt for 1 mana less in exchange for the combo, sure looks fine on paper. This is going to be super annoying though, and probably will be nerfed to 2 damage at some point.
I wish this is named as Braindead.
Combo for Mage seems problematic at best, unlike Rogue, that has plenty of early game, 0 mana spells and lackeys. Seems like running both this and wand thief in mage will often result in casting one for the other's combo.
Two more 1 mana cards that can easily be run to good effect in Rogue, though... I wonder in Edwyn will last until next year or wil they make an exception and HoF him next month.
Easy to Combo, feels a bit OP.
VERY fun art. Nice job.
So Rogue/Mage gets a freeze spell but nothing like that for Mage/Shaman so far. I guess Freeze Shaman Support isn't coming. :(
Freeze shaman was a bad meme.
Yeah, cause the archetype got nerfed before it even released with them changing the Death Knight card
great. More cheap freeze for mages, will get discovered 5 times per game. Don't they have any other mechanics for mage? Let's make a game: go to the collection and everytime you read a card with freeze for mage, drink a shot. You won't wake up tomorrow
Your comment killed me! +2 if I could.
Add Discover and random to that and you wont make it past 3 mana
FREEZE ROGUE POGGERS
Its a freeze effect for 1, which is already decent. But the combo is a little redundant. Basically when you decide to freeze something the idea is that you cant kill it, so either the freeze is redundant or the damage is. Rarely is both required.
Still, giving a freeze effect for rogue is good. And 1 mana 3 damage is likewise also good.
This and Wand Thief might make a big difference for Whirlkick Master, whose biggest problem has always been that all the combo cards cost 2 or more, greatly limiting how much you can do and how early you can do it.
Even in wild the only other 1 mana combo card is Bladed Cultist. Not that I'm expecting the Whirlkick to suddenly be a meta card in wild, but it's nice for people who just want to mess around with it.
It would. Except rogue has already plenty of value from lackeys alone, and this card doesn't always give you good stuff.
The combo pool isnt big, but theres plenty of duds like Shadow Sculptor, Kidnapper, Necrium Apothecary to name a few obvious ones.
Well, it'll be less masochistic for those of us who don't feel like spamming lackeys at least. I personally like to play functional decks that aren't part of the meta, so it's a win for players like me.
Besides, while the Apothecary can be pretty worthless in the wrong deck, the other two you mention can be a lot more functional than people expect (yes, even Kidnapper!). You can assume you are at 7+ mana when you've had a Whirlkick turn, so you don't have to worry about the downside of them being unusable in the early stages of the game, and they're probably fairly easy to activate if you have a deck designed to make use of lots of combo cards.
Would of preferred if it was freeze a character like old school Ice Lance
Aaaaaw, no freeze shaman support :(
very good !
10/10 Card Art.
Frostbolt goes face so not purely a better Frostbolt , but still super solid nontheless
