    Are those Mushroom people getting high?

     

    Feels like a win more card btw. Too expensive for token decks (and kind of pointless in comparison with Soul of the Murlocs), but I wouldn't mind picking it from random discoveries (via lackeys for instance)

    Maybe some slower evolve decks could run this?

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    Definatly a win-more card. But why play this when you have a lot of minions on the field, when you can Bloodlust and SMOrc. Might be run in some control deck i guess?

    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.

    Maybe a tech against board clear, but that's it.

    Token Druid regularly runs Soul of the Forest (and did even before the many Treant synergies). If Shaman can build a board of anything larger than 2/2s, this is a fantastic card to defend against board wipes and prepare for a Bloodlust finisher.

    This card seems rather bad. Token Shaman has with [Hearthstone Card (Soul of Murlocs) Not Found] a cheaper card to play around board clears and set up for Bloodlust. At least, this card is better than Primal Talismans.

    Ancestral Spirit cost (2), for the price of 2 Ancestral Spirit, you can regen a full board ?!
    Also that flavor sounds like every late night camp fire ever : '' Hey man, I just feel like... death is just a construct of our imaginations, ya know? ''

    You need to have a board in the first place to make use of this card. Dunno maybe some sort of Murloc shaman (instead of the 2mana that gives deathrattle summon 1/1 murloc)? But then again - 4 mana for this spell is too much for murloc aggro deck?

    Thought it was good but it's such a win more card you need a board which is not as easy to do as in druid, and then you need 4 mana, would rather cast bloodlust tbh.

    if you are playing tokens I would rather cast Soul of the Murloc

    buffed up ancestral spirit. this card tops soul of forest EASY. and you can have 2 of these..this is going to make sham minions  A LOT more stickier.

    Druid: If you kill my board I will spawn a lot of 2/2 !

    Shama: Hold my bear...i will summon my board again

    Druid : crying in a corner

    Anyway this card secure board in token deck and in combo deck. It will be so annoying

    It's like Soul of the Forest, but good even on 2 big dudes. The best card shaman got this expansion after Serpentshrine Portal, but the other 8 cards are just not strong enough.

    Really great card for token or big shaman.

    Basically Soul of the Forest for Shaman. Might see play in some token decks.

    This will definitely help the balance version of evolve shaman. Solid card.

    I like the card, but I don't see it being played. It's one of those things where you have grand ideas for it on paper, but cannot execute in practice.

    Ancestral Spirit for your whole board seems real strong, you just have to make sure your opponent doesn't clear your whole board twice before you use your silly evolve shenanigans

    Soul of the Forest for shamans. Probably playable in even shaman, but not the best card for a pretty tight list.

    This post is discussing the wild format.

    I give it 4/5 because you need to build a board to make it worthwhile. But if you do, this is REALLY good. I guess we'll see Mass Dispel nerfed or HoF'd next rotation, cuz priests will be running 2 copies.

    Ancestral Spirit is always a better card in my opinion.

    Also seems like Grave Rune but does completely different stuff.

    It has a powerful effect, but it also seems pretty hard to set up. I think you either want to make your board of tokens sticky, in which case Soul of the Murloc is probably better, or you care about getting a lot of value out of a single big minion, in which case Ancestral Spirit is probably better.

    Expensive for what it does, and there aren’t currently any amazing combos you can pull off with it that I can think of. Might see fringe play at best

    Who needs consistency when you could have fun?

    Very strong once you get a solid board state. Might shine in evolve Shaman.

    This is insane. Full board recover, for anywhere, and will be great for arena.

    I will try it in Even Shaman.

    Quite often against slower decks I get to hold my cards to play around board clears, with this one I can actually spend that mana to make my board stick.

    Surely Devolve and Psychic Scream still ruin this setup, but at least I can cover against a series of popular clears.
