    I already hate this card, but I GUESS you can argue you don't want too many 8-cost cards in Token Druid so maybe it won't see play until that Twinspell card rotates.

    Cenarius - 1 more mana + body + flexibility.

    This card - u can have 2, but no idea why. Token druids wins early games, if he survives to turn 8 he probably has empty board.

    What's the most powerful card in Hearthstone?

    A credit card.

    Redundancy is the name of the game. This costs A LOT, and there have been times where Cenarius was played in token. Definitely not a card for the current iteration of Token Druid, IMO. It's not the right metagame for a card this costly. But there was a time when Level Up didn't make much sense, too.

    So.... Blessing of the Ancients is a 6 mana +2/+2... which means giving Taunt to your board and losing the Twinspell versatility costs 2 mana. Seems fair.

    Rating cards on coolness factor rather than predicting power because I like screwing up rating averages (and because I suck at predicting real power levels, but we'll ignore that LUL)

    I feel the exact same way.  I hope it doesn't see much play because Token druid doesn't need any more power.  

    However, if it doesn't see play now it doesn't mean it won't after the next expansion or two so we may not be out of the woods yet.

    If token druids are playing this that means they're in trouble anyways. This is a terrible buff card compared to the ones already in the meta because it can't be combined with other spells/minions. Unless you have a board left over from your previous turn AND 8 or more mana, this card doesn't do anything, whereas the cheaper buffs can at least be played alongside token generators.

    If you do have a board then other buffs give more stats and damage per mana, especially when played together.

     

    Yucky win more card. Bleh/10

    Aggressively too costly, Wisps of the Old Gods never saw play, even in token druid.. You don't value taunt that much on token druid since they want to clear your board

    anyway 0/5 icicle levels of bad.

    I don't think Token Druids would run this, they like cheaper buffs. I'd imagine people will try it out though.

    The obvious deck for this is Token Druid, but it's waaaaay overcosted. If your treants from The Forest's Aid sticks then you buff them with this, you might just win the game. Seems like a last resort card though, with all the other cheap buffs that Token Druid has.

    This card is too expensive for a token deck. You should have played your game much before turn 8, because at turn 8 most of classes have got enough board clear to overcome the token generation. I think it's unplayable.

    Could work for Token Druid but i think its to expensive - maybe some lists will run 1 copy instead of one of the twinspells ?

    Token druid is only getting faster, adding mechs and cutting slow cards such as Soul of the Forest. An 8 mana buff needs to be game-winning for druid to even consider running a single copy of, and this card doesn't fit that bill. I doubt this will see any play.
