My first thought was some kind of cycle/ tog rogue, but im not innovative enough to come up with a golden bullet to save the card (at a competitive level, at least). Even in an ideal scenario where you somehow manage to shuffle multiple copies into an empty deck and draw them with two wondrous wands it isn't a guaranteed kill. This kind of deck is probably playing walk the planks and other removal, and unless you are extremely fortunate its likely that youll have used most of it just trying to stay alive. Of course, your opponent will still have to remove them, but if you are in a position to set up the combo its likely that they are a control deck with board clears. But im strangely pleased that blizz printed this card. Anything that provides meme potential is always welcome, and its better than another vanilla statted throwaway minion that people instantly forget until they open 10 in packs. Hopefully someone will come up with a silly combo that we can play at rank floors.
Definitely not the Evolve target you would be looking for.
I'm almost certain someone will make this work somehow, but that deck is likely to remain at meme level.
I see that a lot of people are calling this card a failure or bad. Yes, in terms of competitive. Concept-wise, this is a very interesting design and opens up for iterations/versions of mechanics like this. Plus, nobody expected Star Aligner to become so good despite its conditional requirement to execute its effect. This card maybe will not see much play in Standard but it will be interesting to see what kind of decks will be made in Wild with this.
Seems like a lot of work for a mediocre payoff. Probably fun to play around with, but not in competitive
Yeah, the best comparison is Star Aligner which 1) is a better stand alone card; 2) has an easier combo condition; 3) has a more powerful effect. If there are tools to support this card then there are tools to support Star Aligner decks which will be better. This is pack filler disguised as a meme card.
The more I look at this and think about it, the more I hate it. I actually can't believe they printed it. This will have to be banned from Arena it's so terrible. I am grumpy that it's taking up an epic spot in my packs. Purify was rightly mocked by everyone, but actually ended up working in a few decks after all. This is way worse from a design and set perspective, and is only getting a pass because it's neutral. I would take a no-text minion with a boring stat-line over this card because at least it would impact Arena.
Copy effects are suddenly more relevant... if this sees play at all that is...
Quest Mage can pull of anything.. this is just another small task for Jaina
Looks like the kind of card a boss would have multiple copies of in his deck/or summon as a hero power in PvE :)
In a set which has no-duplicate theme in it, this card made me thing only one thing, In-game duplicate system.
Someone already claimed that a card which clears duplicates in the deck can only make Highlander decks viable.
This card makes me thing that we might get cards like Mimic Pod. Un'goro is already one of the throwbacks of this set so it might be maybe?
Well.. this card sucks.
Wow this is...an atrocious card at every level. Like holy shit is this bad. I understand, it's a meme card. But it even sucks at being a meme. You want to go for an OTK with this? Sure, go ahead. Somehow copy this 4 times against an opponent that's not at his keyboard, you deal 30 to face and win the game. The downside? This hits random enemies, does nothing until you have 3 of them (lol what? at least give it attack), and there is a card of the exact same cost that happens to do this card's job much better. It's called Leeroy Jenkins. If you wanna jump through hoops to copy this pile of crap, you might as well jump through hoops copying a minion that actually does something. And that something is deal 6 damage to face (which means it requires one less copy to kill someone) and functions standalone as well.
As for Wild...lol no. If you want to kill people with something like this, there's a little card called Ragnaros that, once again, does this card's job way better. Go play OTK Aviana Rag Druid (the combo is Aviana, Innervate, Kun, Rag, Cube Rag, Faceless Cube, Deathwing), or one of the million possible Aviana Kun combos that finish the game with way fewer requirements. This blows in every way imaginable. And considering that Arena drafts are now decided by factors other than rarity, the fact they had the balls to make this Epic for no good reason makes it even worse. If it were a throwaway common, eh, whatever, pack filler. But enjoy opening these in your Epic slots if you're free to play.
TLDR: What a fail of a card.
6 of these are 30 damage.
Not sure how you can get that many on board, nor how you can clear all enemy minions so the 30 damage goes face, but I have a feeling Open the Waygate and Molten Reflection might have something to do with it.
Here's the combo that comes to mind 2xSummoning Portal 2xDesert Obelisk 2xFaceless Manipulator. 10 mana, 20 damage.
Meatwagon synergy
Well 5 of these and 2 Drakkari Enchanter is like 75 damage. I guess that could be worth exploring at least.
Edit: Nvm looks like the Enchanters don't stack.
well... 6 Obelisks and 1 Enchanter is still 60 damage.
Drakkari Enchanter don't stack
Man this is a cool card, but, I'm trying to think of a viable way to make these things work. It's an awesome idea for sure but maaaaaan that's gonna be hard to get a pay off with.
Star Aligner has an easier condition to achieve and still has seen very little play.
I have the feeling that this card will win the "crappy neutral epic" award after Gurubashi Offering and Holomancer (yeah, these cards actually exist), but hey, we haven't seen all the new cards yet. There must be something that will justify this minion.
Also, Blizz gave reddit what looks like a complete meme card. I see what you did there.
