    We will likely never know how good these things are until we've seen the decklist or tested the deck ourselves. Its really 50-50 because unlike abyssal curses you can easily transform, freeze, or silence the things and then they're completely useless. Worse still, they hit enemies, so its not even guaranteed face damage unlike the much consistent abyssal curses.

    So fingers crossed that it will work, because Im getting sick of all the uninteractive shit mages tend to throw every expansion.

    Assuming it's not a token?

    Seems useless except for Mage, unless other classes...

    Wondering if Mage really wants Skeletons so bad they just go all out.

    Other than that it's a decent arena card at least.

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    Skeleton Mage looks like it will be way better than Piranha Shaman. If only because the other one didn't have any kind of finisher like Kel'Thuzad, the Inevitable.

    Reminds of Boom Bot of old. Swap 2 instead of 1, and remove the variance.

    Not very good in a vacuum, but looks interesting in the KT deck.

    Seems bad for any class but mage, in mage its a must-include in the Volatile Skeleton deck i guess.

    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.

    Very powerful with other deathrattles that can make face damage and obviously with Kel'thuzad

    Rating the card, not the archetype, I give it 3 stars because the DR can hit face.

    Seems a bit much to run the token itself in Skeleton Mage. Highly unlikely that other classes will want a Leper Gnome that doesn't consistently hit face either.

    Amazing card, not by itself, but in the new Mage archetype centered around it. Seems super fun to play!
