Oh my, looks like [totally not Echo] makes it's return. Pretty questionable though. Effectively this is Minefield (albeit an asymmetrical one so slightly better) that gets better the more mana you have, but 3-mana on a repeatable effect is very hard to use efficiently (spending 6-mana for a 10-damage spread is barely okay and probably way too late to save you unless you're playing just to clear the board over and over). Makes me wonder why there's no cost reduction for Fel spells.
I tried having fun once.
It was awful.
ECHO is back! Minefield with an echo effect in warlock seems pretty good. Also if you cast it twice, it's basicly the Reno the Relicologist battlecry, which was REALLY good. However with Full-Blown Evil you wont have a body attached to it.
Also i like the art on Full-Blown Evil, and it probably spoils us that all the mercs will team up to take on Tamsin and probably kill her for the final time... as long as they destroy Tamsin's Phylactery.
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.
Weak.
Really strong! With 2 casts, it's Reno the Relicologist, without the deckbuilding restrictions. Also a Fel spell so has synergy with other card effects as well.
It annoys me to no end that Blizzard/Team5 refuses to use previous keywords. Just use Echo damnit! Not sure why they insist that it's "too confusing". Keywords have HOVER components that explain what they are. Arrrrg! I can't be alone on this infuriating inconsistency that they constantly do every expansion:
"Hey all, here's this card with this totally not previous mechanic brought back but this time without the nice keyword to truncate the text!"

Probably too expensive to ever do enough. Its practically Dark Skies because warlock rarely plays on board and require a board clear at the same time, and this is just so much weaker.
The echo effect is nice, but probably still not good enough. My guess is that its trying to combo along with Felwalker, which does make this slightly better, but more support for fel cards are needed if this is to ever get up there, because on its own its just not that good.
Seems a bit too weak for 3 mana, especially since warlock already has top notch removal. Maybe next year when some of it rotates out?
"Repeatable this turn" ?!
Single use echo ?
Why do they make keywords again...
Struggle with Heroic Galakrond's Awakening? I got your back :
It's not a bad board clear, if you want to try the new fel warlock archetype that's the focus for this expansion. It's flexible enough to be 15 damage for 9 mana or you can find some mana cheat to make it a lot more. It's not going to be busted, but it's a nice random board clear that affects the opponent's side only
TREMBLE before.... the most legendary dragon that ever existed!
It seems that Cariel and Kurtrus are going for a 3rd round with Tamsin, but they have Bru'kan this time.
It seems like the Reing of Chaos is happening again in Alterac?
Tinfoil hat mode on
Playing this twice should clear almost any board, but what does Warlock have for mana cheating? Also were there any fel synergies printed? I don't feel like checking.
Full-Blown Evil is a Minefield which, for one extra mana, only targets enemy minions. Repeatable this turn makes it useful in the mid to late game, and the focused targeting means it doesn't punish you for playing Rift Warlock and pulling a Fel Rift on a turn you were planning to use AOE. All in all, pretty solid, though maybe out-classed by other Warlock AOE depending on the meta.
Why is this one the rare and Felfire in the Hole! the epic!?!?!?
The fact it only attack enemy minions is really great aspect of the card. And it's quite versatile in terms of damage dealt as game progress so, yeah, nice one.
Great name - it isn't mid-evil, its a full blown evil. Nice reuse of the echo mechanic as well. I saw this one in play today and it seemed useful in the decks that were running it.
Unfortunately, common sense isn't as common as it should be.
I love this card just because it always makes someone lose their mind that they'd choose not to randomly drop an out-of-place Keyword into an expansion, as though there isn't decades of research on reasons why they might or might not want to do that.
Anyway, card seems pretty eh. Can clear boards, but also requires just a tad much investment if you yourself don't have a board too.
Welcome to the site!
Dark Skies, except you don't have to do nothing for a few turns to get it going. It's definitely a lot more fun to play against as an aggro player, since you know exactly what the damage break point is Think this probably makes it into slower Warlock decks that need early answers against swarming boards.
I don't want to cure cancer; I want to turn people into dinosaurs.
One-sided Minefield AND "Echo"? SIGN ME UP!!!
Hey, you heard about that Mario guy?
Nice card for Arena or Duels. Seems decent for the 3 mana cost.
It seems quite good, specially by turn 9, but I guess its usefulness will depend on Warlock decks being more on the control side or not.
