    LOTS of potential with this card. There has to be some deck that can build around it.

    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.

    I have no idea what this is supposed to enable but I am vaguely scared of it. Also, waht happens if it swaps a minion with 0-attack? Does the card die in hand or only when it hits the field?

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    Wow, it's a crazy effect. The art seems to me like a doomsday project Dr. Boom's minion than an actual Alterac one

    Maybe some otk decks or minions that have an effect based on their attack.

    If this ever becomes meta, you can counter it with the same card. Cool effect!

    Lol. This card is going to lead a few broken monitors in Arena. 

     

    If this card is a choice and you notice you have a few 1/1 cards this could be that clever pick. If you are lucky and transfer 7/7 in power that can be game ending. Don't rule this little dude out. While top decking it cooould make the difference.

    Might see fringe play with the new Inner Fire type card, but the benefit of Stat swap cards is to surprise the opponent and clear their board more easily. This doesn't have that element and is made more for comboing something.

    I think this swaps the stats of minions similar to crazed alchemist and just affects both players hands.  I don't think it swaps stats BETWEEN both players hands.  I think you possibly misunderstood the effect.

    To create 9/4 Grommash Hellscream? Or 6/3 Al'Akir the Windlord?

    What's the most powerful card in Hearthstone?

    A credit card.

    Too bad leeroy isn't in standard or I'd legitimately play this to shaft it.

    It has applications as a tech card. But for now, its unknowable because we have no idea whats going to be meta next.

    To be honest, since most minions good enough for standard have by default a higher health stat than attack, this could potentially boost your removal options' efficacy. We'll see.

    Probably nice for some wacky meme combo decks, but its constructed viability seems dubious at best.

    I agree about the potential, but am worried of its consistency. Once the meta will settle and gives us a sense of predictability as to what is being played predominantly, we may experiment with that. But until then, it is a double edge sword that may easily back fire in your face. Its like the HS equivalent of Russian Roulett

    Okay...? I can see this popping up in a fun janky youtuber deck, but as a meta defining card? I'll pass.

    Disregarding this to the moment of being killed by weird combo caused by this card.

    Wonder what happens when there's a zero attack minion in hand like the eggs or Doomsayer for example. Would they instantly die from in hand? Or only when they hit the board? Will have to test it out. Aside from the question, this card won't see play, unless there's a super ultra mega meme deck that makes trolden.

    Well, somebody will probably find a way to make this work to their advantage over the other player.

    It's a neat effect. Some ideas on how you might use it:

    All of those seem fine, but even for the big burst effects I'm not convinced this card is necessary or anything more than a meme. What card would you replace in a deck to run this for a little extra face damage or a slightly bigger AOE? I have no idea.

    I'm loving this solely because it sounds hilarious.  Also, not bad for taunt decks with the fat butts to go offensive

    I suppose this has some weird combo set ups, but the sole purpose of this card seems to be to put that weird achievement to summon a 0 health minion.

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

    I don't think there's ever a world where you can use this as a tech card, because there's just no way to know you're hitting the right pieces, but I'd love to screw someone over with it just once.

    Very niche. Could be used in a combo deck, or in aggressive decks playing slow decks that run big Taunts with a lot of Health. Probably something that could be done with Augmented Porcupine and its ilk.

    Interesting but so situational that it might even hurt your own chances of winning the game since you do not know what the opponent is running.

    Might work for a buff Paladin deck or so, but seems to niche to actually include in any other sort of deck. Some sort of OTK thing, perhaps?
