    Looks flashy, but... suspects and locations shouldn't sinergize? Cathedral of Atonement doesn't count as cast a spell effect.

    It can fit on a wig or silence priest, but i hope that blizz prints some cheap shadow buff spells.

    Its really a build around that would likely be sticking around priest decks for a least a year, so long as buff cards are still relevant for priest and they actually play on board.

    In a way I see this as something similar to High Priest Amet, who saw plenty of play, until priest stopped playing for board and that card disappeared completely. I can see this card sharing its fate, but perhaps less embarrassingly so.

    Still, if nothing else this card has 6 health for 3 mana and is an instant magnet for removals because no opponent will risk having this stick for more than the turn its played. For that reason alone, it may be deceptively more useful even if all it does is simply die.

    I think that this is a perfect priest card.  Priests buff the hell out of the health, but don't really touch the attack a lot.  With this in play, you can definitely take advantage of the Inner Fire aspect

    Absollutely insane if Naga Priest remains playable. You can play Scribe on 2 and then just play a straight 3-mana 8/8 the following turn. This will happen frequently enough to be noticed.

    Double Starfish might be meta and silence metas are the absolute worst because so many decks get caught up in the crossfire.

    This guy's going down to 4-health at some point, i can feel it.

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    This looks very dangerous. That's a Inner Fire for every spell - so i will say this card is at least decent and could become one of the strongest cards - but we will have to wait and see for the rest of the cards and how the mega will change this expansion. 

    Overall - pretty good - Stats alone can make you tempo-play this because 6 Health isn't that easy to remove early on.

    Useless with Bless of course, but Flash Heal and Serpent Wig exist.

    I hate the word "after," but it's still a great card, worthy of 4 stars.

    I think this is a solid card for priest, I mean, that effect alone used to be the combine effort of 2-3 cards. With this into play, you really only have to worry about setting your lethal combo!

    Insane. Pelagos + Serpent Wig is already a very strong combo, and High Priest Amet saw a bunch of play because of his effect and Pelagos does something similar. This fits perfectly into Bless/Naga priest, and maybe some other aggresive priest decks as well.

    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.

    Vary powerful with any buff like Power Word: Shield and Serpent Wig and with some mana cheat from the elementals, maybe an inner fir elike combo will be able

    Move over High Priest Amet, we have a new staple for Tempo/Wig Priest!

    Very strong card, it has potential to create huge threats from high health minions.
