    Generates way too much value for your opponent compared to the amount of stat cheat it gives. Not expecting this to see constructed play.

    Worst card of the set. Dancing Swords never saw play outside of a few fringe mill decks, and this is arguably worse.

    There is some mill potential here, alongside the nerfed Coldlight Oracle. 4 cost minions are just clunky enough to screw with your opponent, but not impactful enough to really make much of a difference. However, its probably too much work right now and we have no support for Mill strategies right now (thankfully).

    There are already plenty weird 4/4s there, this one changes math a bit maybe, but that is about it.

    This is one depressingly bad card. If you're going to give the opponent a curve, at least have the decency of actually having a good keyword, like Rush or Divine Shield.

    Wow, this is so bad. Only maybe usable against a "created by" priest that has a full hand.

     You only gain +1 attack for such a big draw back.

    I really don't think this will be played. Theoretically you could use it for mill, but there are already cards like Dancing Swords or King Mukla which are pretty bad at making your opponent overdraw. I think the point is that the 4 drop will be kind of clunky to play, and that most of the time it will just be a random card taking up space, but that wouldn't work unless it gave your opponent a 6+ cost card.

    You are spending one card and giving your opponent one card, so it is bad card advantage. You do however get a 3 mana 4/4 which is good tempo, but, you give your opponent an on-curve play which is bad tempo. So this isn't really good for anything except maybe filling up your opponents hand with junk via Shudderwock.

    This card isn't half bad honestly. A decently sized taunt for 3, and the effect gives your opponent a minion to play but that's irrelevant except to hyper aggro. An example of a arena-looking card that is absolutely not fit for arena in any way.

    Unfortunately, I also can't see why anyone play this in standard except to meme others.

    That set revealed many cards that give the oponent cards, maybe Standar can see a mill deck?

    Mill decks usally are countered by aggro, and a 4/4 3 mana taunt helps.

    Most times, the random card you give to your opponent will have better stats than this. Won't see play unless it's randomly Revolved into

    Quintessential random Neutral card with a drawback. These never work out, and I don't envision this will be any different.

    No one will ever run this. Not even in arena. Just absolute trash card, why did they print this? It only exists to nerf the 3 mana pool... why not make a bad 3 mana meme card instead blizz? If they really didn't have any more idea's for cards, we could have had a Blood of The Ancient One reprint instead for our memes... :(

    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.

    Wow! This is garbage I would actually prefer to play silverback over this thing at least silverback doesn't give a free minion and still takes 4 damage

    Here, let me take an extra 1 Attack and Taunt and give you a card FREE of charge! Sounds like a fair deal? I think every reasonable person who knows Hearthstone would say no.

    You're never going to want to play this. Honestly, I'm not even sure you want to run this in Arena, the downside is just far too big - you can't even remove the advantage you give your opponent easily like with cards that summon minions for them.

    You might be able to have some fun with it in an all-in Mill deck, but even then this is not a good card.

    A slightly above average Taunt body is not worth the drawback of giving a 4-cost to your opponent.

    Such good art wasted on a card that will see next to no play. (Someone will run this unsuccessfully in a lockout deck or it would be 0 play.)

    Is it even a card? The stats doesn't be enough in exchange of giving your opponent one minion of higher cost. They should have some issue when printing that card.

    Sometimes they nerf the evolve pool and sometimes they buff it, eh?:) I wonder if it gave "a 4-cost card" not a minion, if it would be better, probably not by much.

    Not sure if it's worth playing, given the drawback. Great minion to add to the pool of random 3 cost summons, though

    I don't see good enough stats here to justify giving your opponent a random minion that will be playable next turn. This one probably dissapears into the island of misfit toys.

    Unfortunately, common sense isn't as common as it should be.

    It might actually be OK for a faster deck, considering that your opponent would still have to play the 4-drop--but giving your opponent resources is rarely a winning strategy. But probably still not that good.
