New Priest Minion - Void Flayer

I still not believe in spells in hand archetype

Again, spell priest will end up being a good deck but I don't think it has enough of a finisher

It's indiscriminate!  With a class that loves having cards in hand this is awesome

not good enough for that spell hand priest deck I think.

Good card

Spell Priest? Would be fun

Seems like it will be strong. Spell priest I think only needed a mild push and honestly priest decks in general usually have a decent amount of spells. Priest got a few strong ones as well this set.

This might actually make Buff/tempo Spell Priest a thing. The main thing it was lacking was tempo based removal. We all know how good Dyn-O-Matic was back in Boomsday.

Still missing an actual win condition, but I guess we have two more expansions for that.

Meh. You want spells to profit of spells and minions to profit of minions, not mix the types.

This looks so cool I can't give it less than four stars. More of a three star card imo though.

Seems really cool, it's a smaller Uldum Reno. But i don't think that Spell Priest will be that good, it's really hard to have enough spells to make it worth it.

don't think it will be useful ...

I imagine this will see a lot of play. Board clears like this are very nice since they can answer tall boards or wide boards. Dark Skies is a very strong card, and this is one-sided. I also don't thin priests should have a hard time keeping a lot of spells in their hand.

very good card. kinda reminds me of Light the fuses! :D

Priest has enough removal...

Hand spell priest potentially?

excellent stats and very good ability

nice

So, spell priest is going to be a thing?

Good anti-aggro tool with an "OK", body, nice and typical priest

A mini Reno, as they said on stream. Spell Priest is already strong and getting stronger with this.

Board clear with big hands

Booo. 

oh... this is a good card. priest hands always quite full

This will not fit in spell priest in the way it is played right now...

pretty good tmepo card

This is not as good as Dark Skies, but not as bad as Meteorologist. Probly will see play

Beautiful spell control

I'm just thinking of Control Priest, and dealing even 3-4 damage is still a very good deal. Will see play for sure, if the archtype works out.

Nice

Hard card too evaluate, has good potential but I fear it might just fall short of breakpoints a bit too often.

Isn't this mage flavor? I guess is new Shadow priest

ok

I don't think this can be a finisher since it only targets minions.

Spell priest was viable in DMF, this card will help support it much better now

Looks pretty bad

This mix they're trying with half-spell half-minion builds seems so clunky. For now at least. Don't see it work.

Spell priest goes brrr.Aggro is just crying vs priests.

It's no Goblin Blastmage, but that card was beyond broken. In a midrange priest, this is probably decent.

Strong in a buff spell deck, maybe a new archetype for tempo priest? Will see. Not good for control deck

This card sucks, unless you really want to put a bunch of spells in your hand and watch as your payoff is...random damage to enemy minions. Not a good card.

Cobalt Spellkin is gone, so that's one engine dead.

If you can get Sethekk Veilweaver up and going then this card can actually clear boards. But by then I guess you're already going to win anyway.

I can't say Im impressed with this card.

Weaker dark skies

Nice if you happen to have the spells in hand, but I think Priest has enough ways to remove enemy minions that this won't be all that impactful. 

Your usually cycling your spells not holding them and this doesn't seem like the strongest pay off. Could be alright but I don't expect to see a lot of it.

But this look like a good incentive to make it happen.
Could make for a cheap AoE - but I see what you mean

If it costs 3, it would see some play, but at 4 mana it is expensive.

It's like cord dancing if Priests are going to pull this off. Balancing on a thin line. They have to generate enough spells and keep them in hand instead of playing them. The generating part is not the problem, but keeping them in hand long enough for Void Flayer to make sense is already more questionable.

Seems they are keep pushing spell priest. Hope it gets some new tools on the mini set or next expansions

good card, can clear an aggro board or help you to finish it next turn with another spell 

Eh not sure about this "spell in hand" thing - priest has way too many better removals as it is already.

Agreed !

This can be very good. When I play priest, I often have many cards in my hand, and some are spells.

I see options for this

Still pushing Priest that holds spells in hand. Might be playable, but 4-drop spot is always highly contested.

Interesting new mechanic with spells

Can easily be a 4 mana 3/4 deal 4~5 damage splitted with all enemy minions.

Great card.

Decent Card but not sure if this will see play over other cards. 

4 mana potentially deal 4-9 to enemy minions.

Not bad, but kind of not making the cut.

More AoE for Spell Priest.

Looks fun, this card has synergy in Priest so it could see play.

Not sure if this will be played much, mabye in some kind of spell Priest?

op board clear

Bad. Bad stats, need spells in hand, random targets.

Hey it is ok in spell heavy priest

With so many great new board clears i don't see this being played meh stats meh effect.

You only need three spells in hand for this to be worth it (i.e. Spider Tank + Arcane Missiles). That should be pretty easy to do, so against aggro it's probably a decent tempo play.

good

Good tempo swing card, but it's really dependant on your hand state.

Really nice, but hard to keep a good minion/spell ratio

On average at turn 4 we will have 2-3 spell. So for a 3/4 we will spend 1 extra mana for 2-3 damage split to random enemy minions. Not impressive

Dealing damage is nice. Could see play

In order for this to be playable I reckon that you have to hold 4 spells at least, better 5. Will this happen a lot? I doubt it

Dark Skies for priest? It's spells only, and 4 mana, so I don't know if it will be as good.

I can't remember the last time I played a Priest and had trouble keeping a hand full of spells. In fact, I often have the problem of holding more spells than I can cast, and I risk overdrawing. Sethekk Veilweaver is still in the game, you guys.

Another card to spell priest, but nothing special. I don't like it 

Great stats and a strong effect, I'm sure it'll see quite a lot of play

Certainly much better than Fortune Teller, but there will need to see some serious spell generation for this to work.

Unlike most removal options for priest, this leaves a body behind and we've seen in the past that tempoing out a body while using it to either kill of a couple of small targets or a bigger one is very good, as exemplified by Dyn-o-matic.

Good card for AOE I like the flavor for spell priest

SPELL PRIEST SPELL PRIEST SPELL PRIEST 

I found this underwhelming. I'm sure i'll be corrected when this is destroying my entire board.

Not too shabby

good card

Bring back lyra and this might be played 

More early removal options for Priest, but I don't know if it works well. If you are using some of your small spells to get to the 4 mana turn, you might only have 1-2 spells in hand by that time. It feels like it will be inconsistent.

If Dark Skies taught us something, this effect is really powerful.

Priest already likes playing a lot of spells and this is cheap enough that it can counter most aggro decks. Looks like a good control tool.

Just stop printing control Priest support cards 

Priest likes to have a lot of spells in hand, and a few minion with spell payoffs. I don't know if this is enough spell payoff. It doesn't synergizes enough with cards like renew and +2/+3 and lifesteal, but it is nice with raise dead

Cool card.  Could find a place in spell-heavy Priest decks, who do tend to have big hands.  

Nice in theory, but I think it will more often be unimpressive. I think you are most likely for it to ping for 1-2 at best. 

I think if it were one mana cheaper it would be incredible for a control priest deck. It may still be.

does seem potentially good board clear 

This with Fortune Teller could be scary. But, in just a general Priest deck this is going to get 1-3 hits which isn't bad.

Spell priest/hand priest might be decent.

If it was a 3 drop or less would be waay better

Even in a Spell Priest, I don't really see why I'd want to include this over just... another good spell or minion.

Not quite a finisher but another removal for control / spell priest.

Did I miss some announcement?  What's with all the new C'thun like effects being added to priest cards?  The fact that it only hits minions is kind of nice, since you can calculate the board clear more easily that way. I think we will need to wait to see if spell priest is strong enough yet.

Having a bunch of spells in your hand does not seem like it will happen.

Spell priest go brrr

While Priest may be good at generating cards, they aren't as good at keeping a hand. At least Palm Reading isn't a dead card when your hand size is low. also, I think Priest has a good amount of efficient removal effects that they don't need to run one that is so conditional like Void Flayer,
