    Absolutely unplayable outside a very specific archetype. Even then, I can see choosing it from Amalgam when your totems are starting to snowball, but I'd hesitate to add it to the deck, so 2 stars.

    We have seen neutral totems before... but rarely in actual play.  This is just ungood

    On paper this is decent because remember Hot Air Balloon? That thing was a real threat if left unattended. This could be just as threatening but it needs buffs to actuall work which makes it far less consistent.

    That being said, a 1-drop that basically cannot be killed on curve is not something to be ignored

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    Utterly useless even to totem shaman.

    That 0 attack hiders this so badly its not even a joke. Without something like Totemic Reflections, what is this card aiming to accomplish even if its a 0/10?

    The only good thing here is that its a totem, and the fact that in totem shaman your opponent will instinctively kill it with everything they've got regardless of its actual nonexistent threat level.

    Of course, you can play it in other classes, and paladin has plenty of buffs. But will you play a minion that will only do something useful after a buff? Unless youre shaman, the answer will likely always be no.

     

    Makes me think that its printed solely to gum up Amalgam of the Deep's totem discovers, so youre not playing 4x Gigantotem by default.

    It's just a pack filler with a rare effect... not very interesting

    Ok for Totem Shaman - i always kinda liked Totem Shaman because it mostly was fun to play!

    Could be decent even tough i think this will still be to weak ...

    Because they can't give Shaman eleven cards. It gets harder to kill as time goes on, though I don't see that Shaman is that great for large attack buffs.

    Why would they print a neutral totem card ..? As if "most" classes would use ...
    This one's heavier than the wooden totems.

    Filler to keep Amalgam from discovering Gigantotem too consistently.

    It's a neutral card, but I can't see it work in any class besides Shaman. Maybe it could in a Priest deck centered around buffing, with Pelagos, but I'm not too sure about that...

    Totem shaman card, probably dust. And in wild its ODD costed, so bad as well. Maybe in standard priest might experiment with 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.
