Also, why the fuck is this not a shaman card. Its Ra-den, theres lightning on his hands, why is he a priest card?

Ra was empowered by Amun'Thul, which is Priest's Titan. Shaman is probably getting a sea giant as their legendary, considering the big deal the lore dump gave to Golganneth loving the sea giants.

Just a small little tiff.

You'd think there's enough guys on the pantheon for priest to choose from, so why is Ra-den, someone with lightning on his fingertips isn't printed for shaman instead.

If we go back to Galakrond's Awakening, his gloves The Fist of Ra-den were good enough for the Shaman class, but in Titans he himself is not, ROFLOL 🤣

Too slow, and practically worthless. Dont know how it got printed in the same expansion as Astral Automaton, something of which is vastly superior to this card but yet quite shit even on its own right.

Im tentatively putting this on two stars because there's a world where you can get multiple copies on this card on board and it does only cost 1, so its not entirely impossible to do quickly, unlike Pogo-Hopper.

But honestly, this kind of card often turn out to be trash. Too slow, no taunt, and no rush. Basically you've just spent your entire turn to do something of which your opponent can happily ignore. So against aggro this is bad, and against control this is only marginally better but nearly any AoE effect would get rid of this no matter how big it gets.

Destroyed entirely by Whirlpool. Meaning you auto concede against one of the most annoying deck in the game. Yeah, Im not liking its chances.

At least the pool is restricted so youre not getting total rubbish.

For every Najak Hexxen, there's a Lady in White. In other words, priest legendaries tend to be absolutely broken or complete trash. Its going to feel bad losing to shit like this but that's practically a hard coded identity for priest anyway.

Its more useful in control priest than it is for the intended use of getting more Astral Automaton

Use this to get another disruption card, to get another titan, and the forge makes it even better. Essentially this allows you to practically tutor cards you need for occasions, something priest does tend to struggle with.

Its never going to work the way you think it should.

The problem is that its too slow and too expensive to ever be a combo piece. The main intention is obviously to charge up Ra-den or Astral Automatons but its fairly obvious that the game would be over well before this card ever becomes anything useful.

The other point is to cheat out 10 mana minions like thaddius, but even then its still 8 mana with conditions that cannot be realistically controlled. I just dont see a world where this works.

The intention, Im guessing, is for us to play a bunch of copied Astral Automaton, and then when they inevitably get wiped out we play this and get an entire board of big burly bots that threaten lethal.

The problem? Well, Im not much hopeful for priest to play the long game that isn't control, and Ra-den would be a dead card in your hand for the vast majority of the gametime. More likely he's more helpful just summoning two things after him, but I still dont see how priest can do things like that without giving up tempo and this card isn't giving you any advantage before he dies.

Ah, Drone Deconstructor in spell form. That looked like a pretty good card for just getting one sparkbot, and this gives you three for only one more mana and throwing away the useless body.

Well, crap. There aren't any windfury mechs in standard. That might've made this good for combo fuel, but you'll just be better off playing 2 or 3 cheap cards instead of this.

The big question is will this be useful often enough to include in your deck? I know I've been stuck with shitty opening hands and ended up losing often enough because of that.

I can't see tutoring a mech you probably want to play and giving it a +2/+1 buff ever being bad.

Rogue doing Rogue things. Might get you something helpful, but I don't feel like looking through the 3-cost or less pool of spells for every class.

This could help you with trades that wouldn't normally kill the other minion. Like that 4/4 rush you just summoned is now effectively 8/2. I imagine this being used on combo turns where you focus on enemy minions to halve the amount of cards you need to kill everything. Though often the more cards you play in the same turn, the better.

Unforged this is nothing special, it copies itself once, then both copies die on your opponent's turn. But forged, you can magnetize it to any mech and it will start copying itself. I don't know what mechs you'd want to copy, but it would either need to survive a turn, or be cheap enough to be played on the same turn as this.

The gadgets looks pretty good, and you get one for every mech you play. I'll be surprised if this isn't in every Mech Rogue deck.

Well looking now after all Priest cards have been revealed, it has some synergy with Ra-den but this is basically a minion version of casino mage which is a pitty coz both these cards won't see much play.

Guess priest will be back at the bottom of the tier list after a 1.5 year hiatus.

Thanks to you, catwalks of Garrosh and Arthas will haunt my dreams forever after this.

I enjoyed the read tho.

Day 10 of card reveals for TITANS and brings us reveals for Hunter by Kranichhs and WoWHobbs.

I guess you mixed some things up.
