I was a bit hesitant on give this card a high rating coz it's such an expensive board clear for DH and not sure what archetype this card would slot into.

Rhapsody's different types. Might be one of the miniset's best card.

So for once we get some rogue cards that aren't busted. Quite like the Rogue/Priest dual class combo seeing as they both have thief archetypes. 

Even the flavor text is on point! 🤣

They're trying to get a second hit in with their next single, "Divine Shield".

This sheep is so cute! Play basket random with your friends in your spare time.

Hello there. Nice to meet you and welcome you to visit my project of avatar game.

Dealing damage antisinergizes with priest's identity of silencing your own minions (Does that still exist?), and paying 1 mana as priest to silence one minion looks disapointing if you remember Silence. Even Earth Shock it's better card!

I think that rogue it's the only one that can take profit of this card at this moment, 1 mana spell that can deal with sticky minions will be "ok" for slow/miracle rogue decks.

Its a tech card for rogue, because the class really dont need hard removal that cant also deal damage to face. But there are times where the meta turns hard on tall minions and you can tech this in because on its own its not really that bad, just dont fit rogue's gameplan.

But 2 mana kill a minion is about as powercreep as it gets. I remember a time where 5 mana Vilespine Slayer was at the very tip of broken cards ever printed.

Its thus far the only silence option for shadow decks, and its discoverable from Sister Svalna, making priest just a little more unbearable with their myriad discovers.

But seriously. Shard of the Naaru is still in standard so what chance does this card really have outside of discovers?

It'll see play, though only because of its pirate tag, and only ever in rogue. Priest has plenty other, more consistent thief cards.

Not really remarkable in any way, to be honest. Even if you scout out their topdeck what could you possibly do about it? Its not like good players dont already factor in their opponent's next move based on the deck archetype anyway.

Dispense-o-bot's selections, to those wondering;

It'll probably be too inconsistent, but we're all happy to see this not being a dual mage/rogue card, because that will be toxic as hell.

Its a discover card, because you'll never realistically put this in your deck unless youre playing highlander.

Forget the hunter class, they'll never play this. In mage however, this card is toxic not because its strong but because you can easily discover it out of nowhere and screw your opponent sideways.

Its basically Arcanologist except with poor stats. But the greatest damning part of this card is that it only draws at the end of the turn, so its not even strictly better than arcanologist despite being 1 mana cheaper.

Maybe in hunter, because that class cant draw as efficiently and this curves right into secret on 2, which may or may not be what you're looking to do. In mage however, its competing with so many other cards I cant see it. Even in dedicated secret decks this card is simply not doing enough. Cant for the life of me understand why team5 didn't just make it a battlecry that draws a secret.

Its just an instant include into enrage warrior. Essentially being able to ping your minions is fairly premium in a class where its supposedly part of their identity.

For shaman though, pretty sure it'll never see play. Damaging your own stuff simply isn't any good in a token based class and making tall minions isn't really what shaman wants to be doing right now. There's better clear options like Lightning Storm, making this card even more niche in shaman.

Probably one of the few dual class cards that may actually have competitive function in the meta.

Shaman would want this because most of the time this is just two 4/5s on 4, unless your opponent diligently removes every token you generate. Whereas in warrior, buffing this up would make for two really big taunt minions.

Will it be enough though? Not sure. The current meta is too aggressive for both to actually thrive, but I'd put my money that this would see some competitive play at some point within this year.

Back in 2016 its predecessor was quite a scourge, but this is 2023 now. Even the pre-nerfed form of Tuskarr Totemic wouldn't see play in a 60 card deck list in 2023.

So put simply, what makes this card special? Well, in addition to being more consistent than its predecessor, it also happens to be in a meta where totems are fairly respected. But I doubt its consistent enough for today's meta. With two duds out of four, youre really just hoping to get jukebox totem out on 3, and that's a tough ask.

The design of every miniset is so good. So many on-point callbacks and interesting mechanics. The small pool must really let the cream rise to the top.
