I believe this is a support for the new warrior quest.
As a huge fan of this upcoming quest, I think this card will not see any play outside of quest warrior. There is no way it will see play with just Supercollider because it doesn't have mech tag and also doesn't have good removal abilities like Omega Devastator or Dyn-o-matic.
It is really hard to argue if this card is gonna be good or not since the new quest itself is... entirely new. So let's cool down our arguments and think outside of the "Meta" box, it might see a play at least once. This card is also really different compare to other boring common cards, and this is ultimately much better than Shieldmaiden, it will help new quest Warrior for survivability since he can't play Dr. Boom hero card and loses Armor hero power. It also fits warrior gameplay style since the new quest leads to be aggressive or midrange style with decent stat body.
I'm going to be "that boring guy" - my decision on the pre-order for an expansion tends to rely almost always on whether I can find the funds in the monthly budget or not, rather than anything about the expansion itself.
Since I know I am going to want to continue to play Hearthstone and try and keep up with the meta, I will usually end up buying the pre-order (if I can afford it) just so I don't have to worry about losing ground on the collection.
Yeah... In Wild, but in standard? This is the best "clear a board and fulfill a quest in the meantime" for warrior, unless there are other ways that I didn't came up with.
Sadly I doubt it will work and expect "board is full of Mogu Cultists" to translate into "control 7 Mogu Cultists" in the code. Personally I don't see the distinction between a space being occupied by a dormant minion and an active one.
Yeah, don't worry. I also expect to be disappointed when the expansion hits. I am aware, that checking whether there are 6 other cultists on the board sounds more logical and is easier to implement than what I am suggesting above. But at the same time, I think there is something true in my assumptions. Whenever I take a look at Reliquary Seeker, I always wonder why she behaves so weird. She shouldn't get buffed, when there are dormant creatures on the board, because those aren't really minions per se. Those are just some entities, which are marked as permanents. A new card-type in my eyes, which isn't a minion and it can't be removed with destruction spells (Twisting Nether), but it occupies a board slot, it removes itself from the board and it leaves a copy of the original minion behind, when you meet its requirements. And that's why I think, that Reliquary Seeker's code actually checks whether minions occupy all possible occupiable slots.
But again, I don't insist, that my speculation is true. Blizzard isn't consistent with its card decriptions and they have shown that time and time again - Ogre Brute, Mogor's Champion vs Mosh'Ogg Announcer.
Nevertheless, it is good to see someone else taking a story-driven approach to deck guides. In this case it gives you a great out if it doesn't work, where you could write the alternate ending: Malfurion 'activates' the Mogu Cultist and nothing happens....
Yeah, ty for appreciating it. I also love making such deck guides, because people can dive into a fantasy world and feel like they are experiencing the events first hand. Anywho, I know what to say, if the combo whiffs.
It's annoying for aggro and combo decks, Sherlock... (sorry, couldn't resist XD) Wild exists, we don't know if the Standard meta will remain the same (very probably not), and my rank is not your business. ;)
We will talk in a month again.
LOL, you realize this card will be in Standard for a very long time, don't you? What about talking in 2021 again? XD XD XD
Sorry, but... people don't play Yeti/Ogre because it's a blank card... this instead, grants 5 armor everytime you attack... Now think, Sul'thraze... Now imagine against a token deck... attack 4 times, get 20 armor. Yeah... this drops down, better kill it.
And Sulthraze will be meta? I doubt it, but we will see.
No, never thought it will be meta to be honest, but the risk is out there, and it would be a powerful combo.
EDIT: OH! And I forgot, we are going to have the new quest, that involves attacking with your hero, so, everything is possible. It would be a real powerful combo now that I think about it.
I'll probably add it to my Highlander priest deck. My deck uses dragons for pressure and raza/mind blast/the inspire minion that deals 4 damage to both heroes as a finisher. If anybody is interested let me know.

Sorry, I read the whole post and answers, and this made my day XD The post (out of nowhere), the profile pic (looking like lost in time and space), man...
Now, yeah, there should be a system where, if you downvote/upvote, you give a why, but more importantly if you downvote, cause normally there are lots of toxic people that just downvote for the sake of downvoting
It has 6 attack AND 7 health for 6 mana, dude, it's not that easy to remove, and yeah, people don't play Yetis or Ogres all day because they don't have a f...king annoying ability in addition to having relative good stats for their mana cost. -.-
Annoying effect? Lul. This effect doesn't do anyhting for the board and you call this annoying? Are you rank 15 or below? O.o
In all my years playing Hearthstone I learned one thing that fair cards like Yeti or Ogre are bad; not because they have good stats, but because they don't do sth. special and this card is similar to them or Shieldmaiden (see no play in wild). In a meta, where decks like Conjurer Mage or Bomb/CW exists, this card has no chance to be part of.

Congratz for the partnership to Flux and all the others. This really show who is the best around.
OP or not?(reccuring villian in quest priest)
I agree that it is most likely not worth building the deck around it, but it does sound like an amazing add in the new Quest priest.

Let's try something different with Priest to spice things up a bit.

Fabricated something. Don't think it's any good. Looks more like an Arena deck to me.

Drywhisker Armorer + Brann Bronzebeard is a powerful combo, but not Sul'thraze and this guy, at least not in 10+ ranks.
