    2 mana deal 1 damage AoE, we've seen some versions of this. It is usually not enough to deal 1 damage. After casting this, you might need to make trades with your minions, which Priest doesn't usually have any on board.

    Upgraded versions are nice, but the base version is a little weak for Priest.

    OBLIVION!

    Good card, given priest can survive rather easily to turn 10 it's a nice AOE.

    Even though, priest really doesn't need to get more board clears...

    Delete priest and blah blah.

    Probably one of the best Ranked spells so far.

    It's asymmetrical which might be very relevant.

    I'm also fairly certain that there will be some HOly Spell damage booster

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    I actually think this card is really good. It lacks in the mid game, but early and in the late game priest can do so much with it!
    Really looking forward to holy synergies as well!

    I guess there's always room for more board clears in Priest.

    It's a solid card, though I don't think it'll scale too well into the late game without some damage buffs (Holy Spell Damage?).

    Baseline is decent and can provide extra reach in the late game, when priest actually starts developing minions. I believe Condemn (Rank 1) will at least be a contender for a good number of control priest decks. Whether those decks are good enough or end up using this card after experimenting with it is another story, as Frenzy tends to discourage low damage AoE effects.

    Strictly better Arcane Explosion (barring any Arcane spell synergies). Breath of the Infinite is rotating so this should fill in that gap quite nicely in any control-oriented Priest. My only fear is that the upgrading will be too slow: 1 damage AoE can only take you that far and between 5-9 it's just a worse Holy Nova.

    It might be good in control decks when it does 3 damage. I'm not sure doing 2 damage for 2 is that worth a lot of minion you want to trade have 3 hp (almost all good t1 has 3 hp now). So here is the problem: It's only good when you are at 10 mana. When you are at 10 mana you dont need to deal 3 damage because minions has way more hp. That kind of cards are made to counter aggro deck but the damage dealt are so weak until turn 5 were you already have lost the game or are in big trouble.

     

    Maybe the holy tag will help this card but i really dont think this will see plays even if the card is good.

    This card is only good against aggro decks, but by the time you reach 10 mana, you've probably won anyway.

    If lackeys were still in rotation, the base version would be quite useful. Could still be relevant if stealth/weapon rogue remains a threat.

    The midpoint version is the sweet spot, IMO, since it hits a lot of midrange threats, notably token druid.

    Seems really good, people probably will complain about priest getting more board clears, but remember: Breath of the Infinite and Holy Ripple are rotating, so priest needed a new cheap board clear alongside Holy Nova

    Condemn (Rank 1) is a very slow board clear though, that will probably only see play in a slower meta. (which is what the meta so far will probably look like) This is because a 2 mana deal 1 isn't good enough these days, and only after turn 5 will it be decent. Because Condemn (Rank 2) can deal with most tokens which is nice, and Condemn (Rank 3) is a decent board clear late game.

    But yeh, if it sees play it's only in control priest. And control priest is losing almost all of the things that make it really annoying to face. For example:  Galakrond is rotating. I'm guessing this is probably going to see play specifically in N'Zoth, God of the Deep priest, alongside that new card: Lightshower Elemental.

    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.

    Condemn (Rank 1) seems like a pretty reasonable card. It doesn't take much support to make a 2 mana, 3 damage AOE valuable, particularly if you're able to make trades on board. Even Rank 2 is not all that bad - Breath of the Infinite saw plenty of play, and that didn't always go off on turn 3. Sometimes you just need a lot of AOE redundancy to beat aggro with Priest, and this is good enough to be just that.

    Actually most slower priest decks were annoying because of galakrond/infinite value and "stealing"/copying cards from your deck. And those are LUCKELY rotating, so priest will most likely be a bit less frustrating to face off against. (Everyone hopes playing against priest will be less annoying after rotation.)

    It will likely be too weak before turn 5, so there's that to be considered. But after that, its just good. In fact after losing pyromancer, what other options does priest really have? This one fills that hole decently, if not neatly.

    At turn 10 its insane. But let's be honest, most games don't ever get to turn 10 and by that time most minions would have outgrown a 3 damage AoE. But that turn 5 upgrade hits that sweet spot for most removals on 2 mana, enough for me to say this will certainly see play.

    This is very good. Consecration can't be played until turn 4, this deals the same damage for half the cost only 1 turn later. At 10 mana you will have other board clears available as a priest (at least in wild, not sure about standard), so this isn't spectacular in the late game. But it is a very strong card in the early to mid game. I would be surprised if this doesn't become a staple.

    2 mana deal 1 damage was good with Spirit Lash because the lifesteal effect, dealing just 1 damage to enemies is not enough unless you play cards like Bloodmage Thalnos.

    Blizz annouced that wide-board shaman archetype will be supported, so cards like Condemn (Rank 1) can shine.

    I think it's not quite good enough. It might be that [Hearthstone Card (Breath of the Inifinite) Not Found] leaving leaves such a big gap that leads to this seeing play, but I think this isn't even better than Holy Nova.

    I'm a bit confused by your sentiment here, clearly you an aggro player 😅🤣

    Hearthstone has always had board clears, it's one of the most crucial tools for control decks, so obviously they will print more and more, and that's expected.

    hmmmm, deal only 1 damage before 5 mana could lost you the game to aggro, so... I don't see priest actually put this in their deck. However, they might be happy discovering this card in late game.

    Holy Ripple didn't see much (if any) play and this card has to wait till turn 5+ to be on par with Breath of the Infinite. If the meta demands early removal this will definitely see play, but it seems pretty meh otherwise.

    Priests will love/use this. They are good at board clears. This is cheap board clear. If they get a holy spell power buff, then this can be really gross.

    Part of Priest’s core identity seems to be “a variery of individual and board-wide removal spells,.” To use a Priest effectively, you’ll need to choose the right tools for the situation.

    Most reactions to the card seem to be based on whether it’s good or bad in specific situations. But this card doesn’t have to take care of everything, it just has to have a role as one of five removal tools in a deck. As such, I think it will be an ok card. As a cheap AOE that scales through the game, it has its own purpose. I expect it to be solid in some metas and ignored in others.

    An interesting iteration of Arcane Explosion, although the rank ups seem slow. If there is a cheap source of holy spell damage it will be strong.

    Wow that is a good card. Like I don't see this not being played. I mean the only reason I could see this not being played is if the 1 turn difference between turn 4 when you would play nova and 5 when this upgrades matters so much that you can't afford to wait.

    Holy Nova is present in the current meta, which is one of the nuttiest metas Standard has seen in a while in terms of power. That power level is going to drop significantly after rotation, so if Holy Nova is good enough now, Condemn will be good enough a few weeks from now.

    tl;dr -- It is not too slow.

    I feel like it's... okay at base values, but of course if there's any Holy spell synergy, especially Spell Damage, it could be great.

    I'm honestly not impressed with this one too much. I suppose it's technically good, but I just don't know how good it will be in late game without a Vargoth or two on board.

    It's too weak but at least it's flexible.

    Probably won't be clearing much at rank 1, unless you play it on curve. At rank 2 and 3, it becomes pretty good.

    These Rank cards are annoying, as everyone's going to have to think about 3 versions of the same card popping up.

    I hope that priest will have some boost to holy spell, because i don't love to much the rank 1 of this card. Rank 2 and 3 are good for 2 mana, but the best scenario is when u generete this card from other one

    Similar to Spirit Lash but without the lifesteal. However, it keeps growing meaning it even makes for a good late game card which is where I think it shines.

    I don't see priests running this with more efficient board clears in their arsenal, but might make some cheap spell synergy decks

    I like the scaling mechanic, but its going to make this card even slower and/or more restrictive to play
    I like the design, and hope it'll see play

    A good card for slow Priest decks. I'm not impressed by its power level (waiting for 10 mana just to get a 3-damage board clear?), but it will have its uses.

    I'm going back and forth on what I think this might accomplish. It feels like each rank is just underpowered for when it is available, but on the other hand, if it were bumped up by one each rank I think it would be overpowered. I guess we will just have to see how it plays out.

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

    Rank 1 sucks as it's just an Arcane Explosion, but as it transforms in a Consecration or even a Death and Decay without the face damage this swiftly becomes a lot better. The size of minions in the meta will determine whether this will see play, but I wouldn't be surprised if this makes an appearance every now and then.

    Good card, hopefully we'll see some priest decks emerge which don't make you feel instantly deflated.

    Kinda situational, probably not a staple, but with the rotation control priest probably needs all the clears it can get.

    Nice replacement for the rotating board clear cards. 

    At this point I have spent too much money on these games to quit. 

    Now pass me another pack, and lets see what I pull.

    In Wild, Breath of the Infinite sees play and Arcane Explosion does not. So while Condemn (Rank 1) is obviously garbage, Condemn (Rank 2) and Condemn (Rank 3) seem great at a glance. Unfortunately, you have to wait for 5 mana to get Rank 2, so this doesn't fulfill the same purpose as Breath of the Infinite or even Spirit Lash. It probably completes more with Mass Hysteria for a deck slot, and I'm not sure it makes the cut in most Reno Priest decks. I do think that other Priest decks that currently run Excavated Evil or Holy Nova will run this one instead, though.

    This is an OK AoE. Not really a fan of its Rank 1 form. Can't imagine there are that many boards it can clear. Once it starts ranking up things get a little brighter, but not by much.

    Seems good enough. You can afford to wait until it does more damage in Priest, since the base card isn't the best.

    Pretty nice AOE.  Useful early on vs aggro, and still fairly good later on.  Not that priest really needs more board clears, but this is a great choice given its versatility.

    The issue I see with Condemn (Rank 1) is that Control Priest doesn't care to have a discounted 2 damage AoE starting on turn five, I think they care more about having that AoE breakpoint as early as possible in Holy Nova. I also don't see the rank one breakpoint being impactful enough and the rank three breakpoint being too slow for the mana requirement you have to reach.

    For glory, honor, and gold!
