This card is either insanely good or really bad, and I love that I honestly can't tell which. The obvious combo is The Undying, but even something like Haunted Relic or Hapless Aristocrat gets crazy value with one of these in play. And of course, it turbo-progresses Malokai/Kalista/Lucian/They Who Endure/etc. The problems though are 1.) this costs a lot of mana to get into play, and 2.) you can't "turn it off", so it will be hard to get anything bigger than 4/3 into play. It does at least limit its effect to followers.
Definitely, though: I'm very excited to see what types of decks players try to invent--Runeterra needs more wacky cards like this!
The fact that every new follower becomes this AND activates it's last breath effect means a lot.. the fact that the other copies it creates also have this effect make it really hard to kill off! it can really pop off in some token or last breath decks, also works well with maokai (obviously, as it's a support card for him).. so all in all I think this card is very powerful and once it gets goign it's hard to stop specially as there are no 3 damage aoe yet.. the only 2 cards that can board wipe this are Reckoning and The Ruination.
