Seems way too slow. Maybe there will be some quirky combo decks or maybe you'll just want to assert dominance with a massive Pen Flinger or something, but I suspect this won't see much play.
It ends the spell chaining, and if you don't roll a Taunt, Aggro can just ignore it. By Turn 8, you're generally low on Health, and they can often kill you.
About the card, it's fine, but idk if is enough to be competitive. Shadow Essence is better because comes earlier, but Idol of Y'Shaarj summons a really HUGE body and that set priest can cheat the mana of his cards easily.
Fine in theory. 8 mana 10/10 is hardly something that can be ignored.
But you'd play this in either a rez priest deck, or some kind of deathrattle deck. Both or which kinda don't really have much support this expansion.
I guess you can discover it, or get it off sethekk, which wouldn't be a waste of space at least, but its just too expensive to drop an 8 mana 10/10 that has not guaranteed rush or taunt value, especially for a class like priest.
5 health on 3 mana is real premium, this is going to be hard to deal with if it goes down on curve, and surviving for a turn or 2 makes the potential insane even before you start imagining Sethekk Veilweavercombos.

It seems that the "official reveal" will be left for the card dump then. Why couldn't they just admit that they already leaked it if they had no real plans for the card either?
PS. If you reduce the mana of a corruptable card (from 4 to 3) that card will be corrupted if you play a 4 mana card? Or needs to play a card with cost higher than original cost?
I haven't seen any confirmations, but I would imagine the original cost the be the one to matter. Might be wrong though.
New Hunter Spell - Jewel of N'Zoth
With this card and N'zoth you can get a strong boards an late turns.
This is the original N'zoth battlecry, so 5 for the nostalgia
New Druid Minion - Fizzy Elemental
Premium stats for this keywords and a direct board impact. Something like a wall druid with N'zoth will probably exist in the new meta
New Demon Hunter Minion - Insatiable Felhound
Very easy to corrupt and get a good effect. Maybe the odd cost will make it into a wild Odd Demon Hunter
New Priest Spell - Idol of Y'Shaarj
Seems way too slow. Maybe there will be some quirky combo decks or maybe you'll just want to assert dominance with a massive Pen Flinger or something, but I suspect this won't see much play.
New Demon Hunter Minion - Felsteel Executioner
I really like the mechanic of this card, a new way to make some decisions when it was the best scenario you can play it a when to play just for tempo.
A very good weapon if corrupted.

Oh yes, much needed support for res priest, the most beloved deck of all time

If they were smart it'll cost 10 bucks. 20 is asking too much especially since we're getting that mini expansion in as a permanent feature.
New Priest Spell - Idol of Y'Shaarj
mmm... Jewel of N'Zoth, Idol of Y'Shaarj... Which classes will get a 8 mana spell of C'thun and Yogg?
About the card, it's fine, but idk if is enough to be competitive. Shadow Essence is better because comes earlier, but Idol of Y'Shaarj summons a really HUGE body and that set priest can cheat the mana of his cards easily.
We will see when full set is revealed.
I've forgot... Darkmoon Rabbit sinergy!!!

Because when your colossus gets silenced (or bounced), you cry. When this does, you already removed something very big with it due to rush.

Shadow Essence older brother

well, you'd still stand a chance to get a massive must-remove-or-die 10/10 sethekk wouldn't you?

can't wait to play this!

Yet another indirect nerf to Sethekk Veilweaver.

Spell Priest with some powerful minions seems like a fun flavour.

Seems great to me.

As rush did not exist you can always call it "Charge, but cant attack heroes this turn"

I see it as a great improvement to Raza Priest decks. Helps playing more cards per turn.
Nazmani Bloodweaver is a New Priest Card Revealed for Hearthstone's Darkmoon Faire Expansion
Yes it will. Gonna be fun (but probably not good) in wild with Lyra.
Or other types of wild priest with Radiant Elemental and Sethekk Veilweaver
I hope it doesn't fit in Reno Priest though. (I don't play it so not best placed to judge).

You are a ****ing genius. And you scare me. I can't face playing against a viable Angry Chicken

Seems like a good arena card.
