    I don't like how this select at random, from your deck ... seems like quite the sacrifice.
    You may sometimes get lucky, and sometimes it might ruins your late game ..

    Hmm, this seems kinda akward because you have no say in which minion gets shredded... BUT this obviously will see play in DK decks that want to SMOrc, and have many corpses. So having a way to get a bunch of corpses instantly will probably be appreciated, additionally this thins out your deck which has always been strong. And shredding a minion is often not bad in a more "vomit out minions and damage" kinda deck.

    This also synergises really well with cards like Corpse Bride. So i think this will see play.

    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.

    No idea if this is any good but man I love the flavor.

    I guess it's an interesting take to have a self-mill card that encourages you to run disposable minions and not too many win conditions.

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    Well to be fair, you'd probably want to play this mech in an aggro dk so most cases the grinder will shred a small minion. Most times.

    Its main usage is for other rune decks to gain corpses quicker and easier, for the mere inclusion of one unholy rune.

    So you play double frost + one unholy, for some board, burn and if you need more corpses you can play this card. Because its a spidertank, you dont lose tempo doing it, and an aggro-burn deck is hardly ever going to miss one card from their deck.

    But in unholy decks itself, this is a bust. No way will anyone do this when other better options are available, like Plagued Grain

    Three corpses for the price of one is a good deal. Of course there's the risk that it might shred something important.

    Seems a little too random and risky, especially given how easy it'll be for Death Knights to generate corpses.
