There's so many problems with this card. The first would be obviously its incredible mana cost of 9, which means its unlikely to make an appearance never mind win the game.

And secondly, the effect is doubtless powerful, but is also impractical against all other classes except for maybe hunter and paladin. Because if this doesn't kill a taunt at least youre really in trouble. And the fact is that it only has 6 attack with 8 health, so its actually possible that your targets are around the 5-6 mana range and  unlikely to make much impact even if they are resummoned on your side.

Only way this card can redeem itself is that you cheat it out, which may not be as impossible as it seems. We've only seen 4 cards so far and Im fairly certain team5 would have easily guessed that the archetype is shit if nothing is cheated out.

If for some reason you're running shadow aggro priest then this card would be your number 1 mulligan, assuming you can somehow get another shadow spell ready.

Although in hearthstone 2022, Im not exactly sure how good a 2/3 for 1 would be exactly. Seems like nowadays if youre not pushing a 3/4 on 1 its not going to make any impact, if not removed entirely with one card.

From what I’ve heard, it is mechanically similar to an “infinte twinspell” in which it is added back to the hand of whoever played it. So if it gets stolen, then tough luck to that player!

Big Deathrattle Shaman

I would love to try this archetype. 

Oh wow this is insanity man

oh yeah that.  I don't know how he got it I spectated the match late and the priest was against a rogue...

As previously mentioned, you could theoretically run Barbaric Sorceress to discount this spell for some shenanigans but not sure if big shaman would go that route or if the deck would work out. Guess you can always add Mailbox Dancer to try guarantee a 0 cost From De Other Side

big shaman sounds so exciting i hope these turn out at least decent

I really like the effect, similar to Frostmourne but very expensive. Can be used in conjunction with From De Other Side but still very slow and Shaman doesn't have much stall aside from Snowfall Guardian.

If you can discount this and then transform the minions you've summoned, you will have a good time c:

Or in the worst case you use it as a 2-card combo on t10 with the card that works like evolve, when  it got upgraded.

I really like these cards and effects but I still don't think big shaman would survive in Standard.

If you can discount this and then transform the minions you've summoned, you will have a good time c:

Big shaman support.

But more would be needed. Because it kinda sucks really. Shaman needs at least 2 other removal option, one of them being a wide AoE that will deal with medium sized boards, at around 5-6 mana range. If they dont get that then I dont see where double 2/3 wolves with taunt wouldn't just get your face kicked in by every aggro-midrange deck in the game.

Its funny, because From De Other Side incentivizes barbaric sorceress and yet playing limited spells in your deck means you're running loads of smaller minions that make the card weaker. Would be interested to see what shaman can do next expansion that isn't just Clownfishing all day every day

Soooo... big shaman?

Overlord Drakuru looks cool especially in deathrattle-themed expansion but it's very very slow. Will you have chance to use it?

From De Other Side - similar to The Boomship but summons copies instead actual minions. Cons - very slow, you show opponent your cards. Pros - deathrattle and reborn exploit, fuel for Sire Denathrius, also heal with his copy.

Sister Svalna may actually turn out to be the Lady in White of this expansion.

Because there's an obvious level of power with being able to constantly generate shadow spells every turn, and since some of them have lifesteal we can argue for that 3 mana you get an infinite supply of value from removal to healing.

But at the same time you're essentially spending 6 initial mana to do nothing and thereafter 3 mana just to get an option. Not only is this extraordinarily slow, it doesn't actually win you the game, so you still need a plan beyond merely removing for days. There being so many faster win cons nowadays (or just one Sire Denathrius that's everywhere).

Might get better, but more likely be redundant to priest's gameplan.

If only you could clear a board of imps with deathrattles gained from Tamsin's Phylactery without destroying this as well. You could OTK with mines for up to 52 damage without needing Tamsin Roame. Other than that, it could have some niche use with Habeas Corpses.

I also got the survey and I sincerly hope most of the ideas never see the light of day. Like cross overs with Manga or other fantasy (one question actually was if I think Harry Potter and HS would be a fit). The lore is rich enough on its own. Or if I would like celebrity partnerships (No thanks).

They already went full Sailor Moon in Battlegrounds regarding cosmetics. I just hope constructed will dodge this crossover BS for quite awhile. On a lesser note, I do not really mind them including more Blizzard IP like Diablo and possibly StarCraft. 

Polaris is a very VERY powerful mutant. Perhaps powerful than her father. She can control one (if not all) of the fundamental forces. She's someone you will not want to reckon with. I love this art/card. One of my favorites.

Vision of Darkness - replacement for Lyra the Sunshard but better. Because it's spell, it has discover and it discovers shadow spells only.

I love the whole concept. I love the execution; it seemed healthy at 6mana for the minion + 3mana per spell.

But they had to ruin it by making it another casino clown-fiesta discover effect. Ugh.

The perspective of suffering through 5 long sifting of discover effects per turn is mind-numbing. (because nobody would pass on the opportunity to play it alongside Radiant Elemental, right ?) Be it as the player, or as the opponent.

A shame, really.
