This plus Frazzled Freshman plus Voracious Reader maybe makes Tempo Buff Priest a competitively viable deck? I think it's highly likely. The deck now has multiple ways to follow up a 1-drop and to reload in the midgame. I'm keeping my eye out for this archetype.
"This just confirms that they won't print a 2-mana buff spell for Priest anytime soon".
- me, back when Frazzled Freshman was revealed
So basically Buff Priest = snowball really hard from turn 1 and hope to win
+2/+2 for 2 buff on priest is just really strong even if it had no further text this card is just amazing.. zoo priest is on the menu!
Tempo/Zoo Priest looking mighty fine with this card. Frazzled Freshman looks pretty nice with this. Also, obligatory 'Northshire Cleric died for this'.
You can play this on a minion with full health, trade with it, and restore it to full health at the end of the turn. In this instance, it is basically divine shield. If however, you are playing Activate the Obelisk or play this on a damaged minion, the healing is pretty insane. This card will play a pivotal role in the success of Aggro Priest, no doubt about that.
Good tempo priest buff, and good all around. Even in *shudders... ress priest. Will see a lot of play. Mainly because 2 mana Extra Arms after boomsday buffs event was one of the most broken priest cards. Tempo priest was insane back then, just because of a 2 mana +2/+2 buff. This card looks pretty good, but we will see if turn 2 +2/+2 is still as broken these days.
+2/+2 for 2 is not amazing, and the heal effect is very situational. Tempo priest is almost better than bad, but it doesn't need this kind of effect to improve.
+2/+2 buffs for 2 are usually "decent", sometimes pretty good. You can put it on a minion that can trade this turn, and trade no problem since it will fully heal that turn.
Put on a Frazzled Freshman on turn 2 will result in a 3/6 minion on turn 2, which is really good.
Was thinking the same, the best place for this is Activate the Obelisk.
Basically 2 mana +2+2 with divine shield...except the divine shield pops at the end of the turn
Strong card? well, Extra Arms was good as a 2 mana card, but that was in combo priest. Now that priest can't draw for shit, I can't actually imagine this thing being played on curve, let alone with Frazzled Freshman
The Funnel Cake shall rise again.
Wow, i realy like it because my Buff Aggro Priest finaly will work in the meta!! (at least i hope so:) )
And it also makes Frazzled Freshman even better than i imaniged.
Tempo priest support, yes you can buff a minion - trade it with sth - and full heal. I'm excited.
Hahaha, it's always funny to see how things turn out in the end.
There will be a lot of snowballing this expansion ;)
Damn! This is a major tempo play on the right board.
Tempo priest is no joke, mark my words. This will be an interesting expansion for priest!
This card enable Tempo Priest for me. Super strong effect that ensure a free trade. 5 star imho
Even though I think that Tempo Priest is a Meme, I have to say that this is a great early Game Buff.
I always look forward to seeing all of the new Power Word spells come out.
I LOVE IT
This will have a lot of use
Yes! Just... Yes!
Priest needs 2 mana buffs, that allows you to buff, trade and get full hp minion.
Very strong. Will see play.
There was a reason why More arms was nerfed when it was at 2 mana. Very Good
Now eat!
Strong card that could make buff priest work.
Works great with Freshman, works great with Veilweaver. Not a card you are likely to run in Galakrond, but might find a space in a tempo priest deck if that comes about.
I'm going to try and make aggro buff Priest work once again. I'll probably fail, but this card will be in that deck.
This card has the potential to carry Tempo Priest. The deck was already semi-playable in Ashes of Outland, and this card has the potential to pull it over the top when combined with Frazzled Freshman.
amazing card, can probably help alot on otk inner fire decks
BLESSED BE THIS FUNNEL CAKE
So this spell is probably best compared to Druid's Mark of the Wild, another 2 mana spell that gives it's minion +2/+2 and Taunt, or Warlock's Demonfire, which will deal 2 damage to a minion unless it's a friendly demon, giving it +2/+2.
Mark of the Wild hasn't seen play on the ladder in a long time, and Demonfire sees SOME fringe play here and there.
Where this spell shines is the text "fully heal this minion at the end of your turn", making this spell Fantastic when you need to trade, just buff your target, eliminate the opposing minion, and it'll heal before your opponent starts their turn.
This spell has a very strong synergy with the activate the obelisk quest, allowing for an easy way to restore health and complete the quest with only 2 mana.
I believe this spell will help Obelisk priest see a resurgence on the ladder once scholomance launches
Turn 1 [Hearthstone Card (Frazzled Freshman) Not Found]. Turn 2 this card... OMG!
Feast is indeed a powerful magic word .. what?!
Anytime Priest gets a 2 mana "give a minion +2/+2," the meta gets overwhelmed. This will likely be no different.
This is also more annoying than most buff cards because it will allow taunt/deathrattle Priest to make trades and restock the health after going down to 1 health.
I expect this to see a lot of play and help push the aggro/buff/tempo Priest archetype.
Looks pretty strong, since it really helps with board control right from the start
I think big buffs and little buffs won't mix up nicely in this set. This is good tempo e certain 2 for 1. Late in the game is a win more if have the board or just plain bad whitout haste or charge.
Fantastic reference and a great buff for the 2 mana slot. Wish it healed face for that perfect flavour connection, but honestly the effect it does have is way better than that would be, so I can't really complain.
Gurubashi Berserker, you can make some value trades a making him a giant later, healing every turn
I like this card and its whimsical art.
Very strong effect with the heal being at the end of the turn.
If tempo/zoo priest is actually a thing, it's due to 2 cards.
Frazzled Freshman + this,
This is pretty good, since you can play a minion, buff it with this on the next turn, and then attack with the full knowledge that you will instantly heal any damage taken from the attack.
The end of turn effect is really nice. Aggro priest might actually have enough tools.
Combined with the new 1 mana 1/4 minion, it'll give Priests more offensive power and make them even harder to deal with.
