    An better Yogg mainly due to it not ending when it dies because it's a spell and not a minion. While there is a cap, 10 spells is still plenty. Might see play at 1 as a last resort option card.

    Flavor: 10/10
    Actual rating: ??/??

    I have no idea if this is a thing you want. I'm inclined to say that it is not a thing you want.
    Part of Yogg's appeal was that it did a bunch of stuff, then also, you probably ended up with at 7/5 on the board for tempo. This is probably unlikely to do that.

    Tournaments will be decided by this because this card will be randomly generated.

    I'm DEFINATLY looking forward to pulling these from Academic Espionage, Hench Clan Burglar or any other discover, And repeat em with Tess!

    RNG is only fun as long as there is a 50/50 chance of getting something really good or trash level of bad. If RNG always results in something good, then it's not fun.

    I'm a bit worried that once again this will see lot of play in official tournament as a "last hope button" as it was Yogg-Saron, Hope's End before its nerf. Coming from that experience I'm puzzled (no pun intended) by why they've printed again something like this.

    So. Many. Mixed. FEELINGS!

    On one hand, it's a Yolo Yogg and that's abolutely awesome and fun. On the other, it's a Yolo Yogg and that's abolutely awful and unfun. 

    This is one of those cards that should only exist if it's not available in Tournament Play. Yogg-Saron at least had to be in a spell heavy deck, this bad boy can just be slapped in pretty much any mage that can go late. Or even in aggro mage as a last ditch effort. 

    Rating cards on coolness factor rather than predicting power because I like screwing up rating averages (and because I suck at predicting real power levels, but we'll ignore that LUL)

    I am debating with myself wether or not to just craft this in Golden, twice, and put it straight into my Casino Mage. Hmmmm..... 🤔

    Casino Mage is back. I always welcome fireworks in hearthstone, Blizzard just has to ban this from tournaments (and maybe make sure people can't randomly generate it there) and everyone would be happy.

    I don't expect this card to be as powerful as the OG back in his day simply because of power creep. The standard spell-pool has some pretty nutty high rolls though, and cyclone mage can generate this with mana cyclone so it's bound to come up in tourneys.

    They should have had Elise shuffle this into your deck, then playing it casts a random spell and puts Yogg in your hand.

    Quick!  Someone give me something clever to write here.

    Pulling this from Mana cyclone is going to be interesting.  On one hand it's kind of a brick spell because 10 mana, but on the other hand it can win you games you have no business winning, especially with the new priest spell they printed.

    I’m all for it. Look if it goes a bit wrong and it’s warping the meta - fine let’s nerf it. I think the card will be fun if you run into it occasionally and we can always nerf if it gets too much.

    meme card but hell of fun.  And the game is full of randomness (luck) so this one randomly generated and winning a game is anoying but minor. I agree in a turney it can suck if turning a game.

    Turns out.. I was wrong you can't ask for more wishes.

    need to stop underestimating them they have become more aware of the game balance.

    btw it's a nerf to Mana Cyclone in that you are getting spells you can't actually play unless you are losing.

    Undeniably a fun card, but obviously, fun is not the first thing people think of when putting together a Mage list at the moment.

    I think it's super underrated.  It's literally just pre-nerfed Yogg since he's always killing himself anyway. The only thing holding it back is the fact that it's a mage spell.  Yogg was classically played in druid because Yogg cleared complex boards pretty consistently and druids can't do that.  Mages can clear boards reasonably well, so there's no reason to run this... unless they print some synergy

    Of course, that won't stop this card from winning games in tournament settings because of random generation.  Maybe it'll see a nerf due to people getting upset over that

    This spell is better than current Yogg-Saron, Hope's End, because the spell is a guaranteed 10x casts, unlike Yogg, who may very well die before reaching that point.

    Also, this spell fits any deck, with no requirement, while Yogg needs at least 10 spells to be cast before himself, in order to provide equal effect, in the best case scenario.

    Once more, I regret having kept Yogg after the nerf. Such a waste of dust...

     

    In Standard, it could easily fit a Midrange deck, maybe based on Big Spells. In Wild, you are either dead or winner before turn 10, either with Aggro or Combo.

    If you have Grumble, Worldshaker and Shudderwock, you can build a meme ShudderYogg deck. Whenever I'm in the mood for some fireworks, I go to wild casual and play it there. The trick is to copy Shudderwock a bunch of times before playing Yogg-Saron, Hope's End.

    "Cast 10 random spells without Yogg in their names."

    That is the first nerf this card will see.

     

    I predict it.

    The end of days is coming. Doomsayer was right all along.

    I mean, yogg-saron never survives past 10 spells anyway, so I guess this is better?

    It's a meme card. Nobody is going to seriously put it in their deck. But thanks to random card generation it will still see some play. Probably some Kalycos-Yogg highlights incoming, but really just a mediocre card. 2/5

    Everyone underrated Yogg when he was leaked in WotOG too. I sincerely hope Blizzard doesn't butcher this card for the sake of E-Sports again, and instead bans it if people get mad.

    I've slot him into some of my druids.  I'm running Jepetto joybuz as a hopeful combo enabler and having Yogg for 1 mana sometimes makes him a lot less terrible

    Card can also generate a big board by iself using Power of Creation into Conjurer's Calling etc. 

    Or imagine 10x Pyro going into opponents face? RNG ftw.

    Due to the random nature of the card it is obviously more for fun than for value, but can still be a lot of fun I'd say.

    And I am wondering about the probability distribution here: do mage cards get a higher probability in the pool? Or is it really random over all classes.
