New Shaman Spell - Tiny Toys

Interesting Card - pretty nice addition for Evolve Shaman.

And if you have the 5 Mana Weapon equipped that evolves your Board after you have attacked i guess this is even better then expected.

Party Up! for 1 less mana and 1 less body. Can be scary with cards like Evolve, otherwise I don't know why you'd ever want to play this.

So the range of 5 cost minions can be great like Ras Frostwhisper, or terrible like Blood Herald. It's an interesting card, that might be play in a more control or evolve archetype. Hard to evaluate till we still the rest of Shaman's arsenal this expansion.

Great with Revolve, I'm gonna wait on further 5-drop analysis to figure out how good it is on its own. Don't see which Shaman deck would want this though.

Its evolve shenanigans because that's basically shaman's identity now.

On its own, its still okay. There's plenty of taunts and deathrattles conveniently in that spot so its not game over if you can't find your evolve cards in time.

I still think its too slow for it to take over everything, but I wouldn't count it out entirely.

Flavor-wise I don't know wtf does this have to do with Shaman but oh well.

Boring Evolve support. The deck isn't gonna happen anytime soon and it shouldn't because it's complete nonsense.

Also it's not a Nature spell so good luck drawing it.

So evolve shaman support. Boggspine Knuckles and Revolve are still in standard

This seems, random? You get four 2/2s with the abilities of random 5-drops. I really don't know what to make of this card. It feels like an awful lot of text just to summon some random 2/2s.

Weird swarmy card. Shaman has a lot of great early minions and usually wins on or before turn 6. In a more control set up I don't see a reason to spend mana on 5 2/2s. Unless you can cheat this out early, (like turn 2 bloom, bloom, this) then I don't see it.

Alright Boggspine Knuckles on 5 and this on 6. That's actually good enough. Still slow but it now has a use.

It's hard to judge in its worst case (i.e. you just play it to get four random 2/2 minions), but this curves out right after Boggspine Knuckles, and getting 4 random 6 drops for 6 seems pretty good.

With Revolve, this could be good.  But that is at least a magical turn 4 combo with Lightning Bloom and The Coin.

I love RNG so I love this card,  what I don't know if which deck plays it.

Evolve is the worst mechanic ever, any 100% rng style os good for the meta.

Evolve shenanigans incoming. Really hope the shaman questline doesn't involve the evolve mechanic as that kind of RNG is so unfun to play against.

Evolve shenanigans aside, I still think this is 5 stars because I am having Jandice Barov flashbacks.

I came here looking for a comment just like yours ; what's the (5) drop pool looking like at this time of the year?
Thanks for preemptively answering my future questions :)

I want this to be good because I have always like evolve Shaman. I just feel like any time that deck starts  to shine the player base really starts to get angry. I don't know, it feels slow and will require a bit much set up to make it worthwhile.

Very interesting card. Seems super solid in evolve shaman decks. But outside of evolve shaman decks, you probably want to highroll some deathrattle minions or minions with additional effects with Tiny Toys.

So far the best minions as to get in standard (at the time of writing this) with Tiny Toys are: Al'ar, Burning Blade Acolyte, Ras Frostwhisper, Moonfang, Headmaster Kel'Thuzad, Inara Stormcrash, Overlord Runthak, Taelan Fordring, Ogremancer and Totem Goliath. So basicly 10 out of 30 minions are good, which is actually a pretty good chance to get some good minions! And considering you summon 4 minions with Tiny Toys, your generally going to get 1 good minion + 1 in 3 chance of getting another good minion. (Of course your not guaranteed a good minion, as it's a 1 in 3 chance on each roll. luck certainly plays a factor)

I actually think it might see play outside of evolve shaman, not sure what deck though. Maybe control shaman might slot 1 copy in?

In wild i'm certain it will see play in Evolve Shaman. Maybe EVEN Shaman might consider it? Either way i'm not even gonna look at the wild options, because i'm NOT going to look at 154 WILD cards. (excluding the ones in standard, otherwise i would have to look at 184 cards...) 

While Tiny Toys does curve out perfectly after Boggspine Knuckles, non elemental shamans do have a hard time sticking on the board before the stat swing. I feel Evolve Shaman needs something stickier in that regard.

Not sure there are that many 5 mana minions that would still be good with 2/2 stats. Something with a good deathrattle, maybe.

Evolve shaman.

Great for evolving. But I like this card desing in general. It just feels cozy and wholesome.

Better than Party Up!, but I wish they would dial down the randomness. This is going to work wonders in Evolve Shaman.

I think this would be really fun if evolve effects didn't exist. As such, this will suck to play against. 

Awesome Evolve shaman tool. And... that's it.

evolve / revolve shaman!

Without any evolve, a lot of minions seems to be just 2/2s, but there are plenty of jackpots as well. Envoy Rustwicks shaman lessgo.

Getting some Envoy Rustwix is just too good to be true, the 5 mana pool minion is very strong right now, most of the minions have good effects

Far too random to be any good by itself, but interesting to combine this with any evolve mechanics, so it should see play in that sort of deck

Them being 2/2s is irrelevant, you should always be trying to evolve them anyway. Really good card when part of that kind of combo, but mediocre otherwise.
