    You might just sneak one copy of this into big spell mage, so your dawngrasp can get you another twin 5/6 taunts when she comes out. And unfortunately, this card might only ever see play in that deck. Because in most other cases you'll much rather be playing mage stuff like freezes or just plain beefed up hp. Mage usually just dont really care about board all that much, both yours and the opponents.

    Still, the fact that your opponent cant kill this with targeted removal effects makes this a real stellar card to have, even out of discovers.

    Well, Big Spell mage will LOVE this card. Kind of a shame most of Big Spell Mage will rotate the expansion after March of the Lich King. Still before then i bet this will see a lot of play, and it might replace Drakefire Amulet in some decks.

    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.

    Two good-sized taunts that can't be removed easily. That should be good.

    I like how this is pushing mage down an alley they aren't known for, this might shake things up !

    Oooo this is a nice big arcane spell for big mage. I'm sure nobody would be update getting this off of Magister Dawngrasp and it's pretty great stall for that deck. Sure you may still use Drakefire Amulet due to the tradeable aspect, but this isn't a bad card.

    Seems overpriced tbh. Spellproof isn't really that relevant these days, targetted damage-based removal is a rare sight.

    Question number two: Why put this in Big Spell Mage? You're already not trying to play your spells for the intended cost and this is just worse then Amulet or Rune in most cases.

    The only mildly interesting thing is the Arcane tag because of Dawngrasp but I'm not sure that's enough to justify it.

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    Guess Big Spell Mage is sticking around for just a bit more this year.

    This plus Vexallus is going to be very annoying to deal with!
