Only good when it is buffed.

So, Shaman gets Nature spells and Murlocs this expansion. A weird combination.

Its basically to make up for Murloc Warleader in standard. But there needs to be more murlocs before shaman can get fishy again.

To be honest, had this been a paladin card it would have been nuts, since paladin still have some of the best murlocs around in Murglgle and Imprisoned Sungill

Outside of murlocs, its just Blessing of the Ancients without the twinspell. In other words, just not good enough.

With Bloodlust gone, this could be a decent finisher for murloc decks in standard. I still think bloodlust is the better card for wild however, since murloc decks usually enjoy being more aggressive.

He will definitely be in this set I doubt they would show him in the art for no reason.

Everyfin is cool when you're part of the team.

Played all the pokemon games up until the remake of the 3rd generation. Generally watch the VGS (tournament) So here's my opinion;

- The pokemon games have not really innovated much throughout, like really little. Typical of Nintendo games anyway. It used to be quite exciting to catch these things and then level them up for those sweet evolves. But as the year go by I have to admit that the gameplay is really lacking the same hype as it used to since red and blue. Most pokemon games gradually decent into grind fests, and me with very little time nowadays just cant handle that anymore.

- The animations were brutally slow. Thank god there's an option to omit it altogether. See that hearthstone? That's an option you should absolutely give us.

As for DiamondPearl:

- Pokemon design wise, well, its decent-ish. Best designs were up until the 3rd generation and everything went downhill from there. Unfortunately DiamondPearl's pokemon designs were weak, to me anyway.

- Team Galatic's arc were alright. It wasn't as silly as team rocket, but man that main villain.

- I don't know why from gen 2 onwards all your rivals were super nice to you. I really just prefer a Gary-like rival where we just do battle and he gets frustrated after I kick his ass.

Its certainly not the best pokemon game I've played (gen 3 will capture that title) but it was an engaging distraction.

I think that [Hearthstone Card (No fin Can Stop Us) Not Found] is a great follow up and pressure tool for Murloc Shaman decks. However, my question is: is there enough efficient murlocs left in the core set with the loss of Murloc Warleader? We'll have to see what murlocs are released for Shaman this expansion, but I think this card seeing play is more up to the efficiency of the available murlocs rather than the efficiency of the card itself.

Don’t be too sure.  They said in a fireside chat about Darkmoon art they like telling stories in their card art.  Like how some spells will feature a legendary minion in the class if the spell and minion fit.  (Stormstrike has Inara Stormcrash in the art)

So his appearance in this Shaman spell may indicate he will be Shaman’s second legendary in the set.

Still loving missing you Finja.

Maybe I will try out a murloc shaman on wild with this

we could get anyfin but this... is murloc shammy going back to meta?

Not bad. A powerful tool in Murloc decks.

I am a little disappointed this wasn't Finja though . . .

So they are going with a murloc archetype for Shaman again. 

Hopefully we get Finja as a neutral or shaman legendary then. He is teased in the art and they are calling back to old legendaries like Kazakus so I'm guessing he has to be in this set.

Everyfin is Awesome

It's 3 mana give all friendly minions +2/+2. Needless to say, it's really good.

If the opponent plays a Cult Neophyte could you theoretically cast the spell as many times as mana allows, or is it based on intrinsic cost?

Hype is dead for this one, still missing you Finja

Can this make murloc shaman in wild at least a tier 3 deck? Any thoughts? I'm leaning towards it will be at least low tier 3 and not completely off meta as it is now.

Because players are still trying to get the achievement for the extra experience.  Once rotation happens you will see less of it.

Slightly better Cleave... I don't know.

Yoink! is actually very good, if you have an weapon equiped or if you dont need a weapon it will always be beneficial. The fact that you can discover a hero power is the reason why it's viable, and the fact that the hero powers cost 0 is also amazing. I also love the design, it's a different spin on burgle rogue that we haven't seen before. Don't we all love not playing rogue? (Whilest technically playing rogue)

I think Yoink! will see plenty of play, and some people will probably get salty about rogues getting "the perfect hero power, resulting in them winning the game".

Draw/Tutor. Could be playable, depends on other cards.

These ranked cards are always too weak for their cost at rank 1, but they sometimes get good. Even on turn 2 or 3, a 2/2 rush for 2 isn't that great. A 6/6 rush for 2 is awesome. A 4/4 isn't that bad either.

Amazing on curve with the 2/5 pirate (sword eater).
