The ability to shut down aggro and tempo decks one turn earlier is great. Doomsayer problem some times used to be that you could kill it turn 2. Now turn 1 barrel could prove to be harder to kill.
Well, consider it yet another tech card. If aggro rules the meta, which is possible because as strong as all the Dragons are they are also a tad slow and pricey, then this card will see play. Obviously if you fill your deck with nothing but tech cards your deck will have no win condition of its own. So choose your tech cards wisely and sparingly.
I for one haven't played evolve Shaman because it's relatively expensive for a ftp player.. Its legendaries are super niche so don't feel like a safe craft in the context of the wild event and close to an expansion. And the deck doesn't seem competitive without them. I wonder if a lot of players are in the same boat?
But I agree that the hate factor plays a role too! Haha
What a crazy name for a worse Consecration for 1 less mana. The card isn't bad but probably the worst or at least the more "balanced" Dragon Breath card.
Obviously the card is pretty good, for 3 mana you deal 6 and draw 3, but combining with weapon buffs that Warrior has, including those from pirates in Wild, this gets pretty insane.
I can this being played in some kind of control highlander deck, that cannot run 2 doomsayers. Other then that, it is a budget doomsayer, which is nice. Will not replace original one for the players that already have them, as 2 more hp and destroy minions vs deal 5 are significantly diffrent (better for the OG Doomy)
Hello OOC team, I had an idea to make card discussions more Informational and colorful.
Having to quote cards on mobile is a pain(also on desktop but it's more manageable)..
There was this feature which blackened keywords automatically, it would be nice if such feature was available for cards as well..(with an option to turn it on/off for off topic,runnatera or other card games).
If a card name is written right it would be linked to the card name.
Would such feature slow the forums down or is it feasible? Maybe just have a feature to "scan highlighted lines for card names" so there are less quarries to the server to check for card names (as well only check the correct card game).
It can be a nice tool to disrupt your opponent tempo, you can drop it on turn 1 versus aggro decks and it will work most of the time, killing a 1 drop and stopping your opponent second turn can be huge versus decks like zoo or murloc shaman.
Maybe the fact that cost 1 less than doomsayer will make it viable even if is more fragile and isn't as strong?
Later in the game, you can freeze the board and play this; dealing 5 damage is like killing all minions versus aggro most of the time, so not a huge difference there, but maybe will be too easy for an aggro deck to deal 5 damage from hand at that stage of the game and in the end doomsayer will still be the preferred choice.
Great anti-aggro tool. It's not better than Doomsayer since some minions could survive 5 damage, but this is still a fantastic control tool for the early game.
This is serious business. In combination with a free Conjurer's calling and Khadgar this can give you 4x 6-mana minions and a 2-2, so 26 worth of stats for only 8 mana. Compare that with the "normal" Khadgar on a mountain giant which gives you 3x8=24+2 = 26 mana extra stats. It's the same power-level, except you do not need to have a big minion on board. And more flexible you can use it with your expensive spells as well. Normally you first have to wait for Kalecgos to give you a free spell but now you can do this at turn 6 already (5 with coin).
Well in mage you can now run your 3rd and 4th doom sayer if you need to it makes board clears more consistent.. Or also the 2ns one in highlander so frost nova has more uses..
This might as well be a mage card.
Another upside is that you can do the combo for 4 mana, the downside is that's it's easier to deal with, and that it can't deal with big minions..
But 5 damage is a lot.
(sorry for not quoting cards it's annoying to do that while on mobile)
Mini doomsayer. I dont think its competitive enough (i dont like doomsayer either). Maybe its good against super aggressive decks on turn one, but later... If you are in a postition where the opponent is zerging you down, a 5-health doomsayer always comes too late by turn 2. And feels like a waste of a card and mana on turn 1.
Compares favourable to Doomsayer i think. It may be dropped a turn earlier- which is useful against hyper aggressive decks, in the early game the two health less won't be much of problem, and in the late game it dies as fast as Doomsayer. 5 damage to all minions will suffice against any board before turn 4. It is a soft taunt either way, which locks up the board. The biggest upside is the potential reusability, with Power Word: Shield or Sand Breath control or dragon decks can keep the board free for two consecutive rounds.
It's a great 1-Drop against aggro for sure. Costing 1 mana less than Doomsayer makes A LOT of difference. One the other Hand, it's not that great in the mid-game. Doesn't guarantee a clear and gets easily removed.
Well this is interesting, similar to the card Gurubashi Offering but much harder to kill and with a much greater payoff.
It's similar to Doomsayer in its usage, another tool to slow down aggro decks if they become problematic. Whether this card sees any play is entirely meta dependant, would require a super heavy aggro meta to consider having this take a deck slot.
This.
Its just a tool to slow down aggro decks, at worst is a 1 mana restore 5 health and at best is 1 mana deal 5 dmg to all minions.

[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
Lowly Squire?
When he’s summoned, sound the trumpets - has trumpets in entrance quote
It’s totally common to hear - is common
Pay more Mana and bigger he gets - gets more Attack when you spend Mana on HP
But he’ll always be lowest tier - how do I say this... he sucks

Or maybe a deck would run both?

This is cute. Nice to have a new mini Doomsayer in the Wild toolkit..

I guess Doomsayer is going to hall of fame. Time to craft them golden...

Knock off Doomsayer? Good for new players, but seems like it will be just a worse version of Doomsayer in all aspects.
