    Really liked the art that featured a resembled lackeys, other than that, I think its made for a non-existent midrange priest...

    Value? It's good, but something priest don't need right now.

    I mean...it'S a 0-mana spell for Nomi Priest

    They never really bothered to make lackeys work for Priest and this certainly doesn't do them any favours.

     

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    Huh, nevermind. Guess it's a good tool for priest then. Getting 1 lackey for free plus cycling card is pretty good as I can imagine, can also trigger Lyra the Sunshard as well.

    Neat card.

    I love the artwork so much. Hearthstone needs to put more recognizable, non-Legendary minions in other cards. The only other ones I can think of are Evolve featuring Abusive Sergeant and Hobart Grapplehammer working on a Cogmaster's Wrench.

    Pretty good card, can work nice with Gadgetzan Auctioneer and Wild Pyromancer.

    The only issue is whether this fits into any playable archetypes for Priest, it is hard to see where it would go as they don't really have any Lackey synergy.

    Not too powerful, this is literally just a random lackey, but also being a 0 mana spell does have benefits. Lyra the Sunshard, Dragon Soul, Gadgetzan Auctioneer, plus a couple of others I cannot think of right now, these cards aren't all too good, but maybe you enjoy playing them anyways.

    This card is just nice and flexible and will be in any priest deck that cares about either lackeys or casting spells, or maybe you just have an extra slot to fill.

    this is almost like adding a lackey right to your deck list. 0 cost also means nomi priest can play it

    Getting a lackey is worth more than zero mana, and having this with any spell synergies (e.g. Gadgetzan Auctioneer) make it a card worth considering. Miracle Priest doesn't have the support it had back with Lyra in Un'Goro, but every 0 cost spell should be considered carefully.

    Priest doesn't have a good reason to use lackeys. This card can only see play because it's a 0 mana spell and not for the lackey generation.

    More dragons? Yes please!

    If there’s more cheap spells like this later it could be good for cycle. Doesn’t seem that great right now though

    Priest doesn't care much about lackeys and while any 0 cost spell is one to think about, I don't see this seeing non-niche play. In combo decks its probably fine, but just as a card, a random lackey isn't worth it to me.

    It's a random Lackey right? 0 mana spells are strong and Lackey's are decent enough overall. This might find its way into a deck.

    0-mana Priest Spells always find a place in the meta. I'm sure this one will be no different, especially given the versatility of the lackeys.

    I mean this card is good, just that I feel like priest will never use this card because there's not much reason to. I can only imagine if this card was a rouge card, that would be fun as hell.

    0 mana spells are always something to look out for. This card is pretty good for Tempo Priest. Lackeys are really good tempo/value cards. Even if they haven't been prominent in Priest, that doesn't mean the class can't benefit from them or at least try to use them. I'm certainly going to try a Tempo Deathrattle Priest with this and see how it goes.

    Lackeys in priest were never a thing but that's okay. It's still a good value generator for free, going nicely with pyromancer and auctioneer.

    Lackeys can be ridiculously good if it can be generated more in priest.

    I had experiments with EVIL Conscripter but that was not enough. Maybe this might help.

    I think the same, I think control galakron or full dragon decks will be at the top of lists and this does not fit there.

    priest is the worst lackey class, there are no "lackey lovers" or enough token generators in the class.. well yet.. it got the second element of being a 0 cost spell for cards that care about spells but.. nomi priest is a weak deck cause it was a tier 2 in the FIRST expansion of the year now with all the powercreep.. ye.. not seeing nomi priest on the radar.

    It's random, but a "free" lackey cannot be wrong right. 0 mana cards are broken in Hearthstone, and this is no exception. It can be used to activate cards like Wild Pyromancer, Gadgetzan Auctioneer etc. This might even find a spot in Combo Priest with the Divine Spirit combo's (although get a Lackey from Psychopomp would suck). Perhaps even a revival of Chef Nomi Priest is in the making.

    I don't know about that. Yeah 0 mana spell is good for Nomi or Auctioneer but do we really need lackeys on priest? I suppose this card isn't worth to include in a deck. It's nice to discover it but not to have in your deck IMO. We might need this card in april after the next rotation but not now for sure.

    This card fits into Nomi Priest. Because priest has rather bad lackey synergies, I doubt that this card will see much play for besides it deck cycling effect in combination with Gadgetzan Auctioneer.

    If Kevin - who averages a winrate of 45% playing Pirate Warrior on sunny days - gets a lackey for free after investing a deck slot for it in his priest build, on average, how many games will Kevin have to play to reach rank 25 if it rains?

    0-cost cards should always be viewed with interest. Priest doesn’t have much in the way of cheap spell synergy at the moment though, at least in Standard. In Wild there’s Lyra the Sunshard and Dragon’s Soul to work with Whispers.

    0 cost cards have a tendency to be too good, but this card? Where does it fit? It looks midrangey to me, but is there any viable midrangey deck for priest? It might see play but is going to be very niche.

    How many priest did you saw on ladder playing lackeys? Right, zero. How many you'll see after release this card? Right again, zero. Hopeless card and waste of card slot in deck.

    Fun and interactive game.
