Hoo boy. This could be frightening with Zilliax, Mechanical Whelp, and a whole slew of others. Onyx Bishop saw quite a bit of play, and this is far better than that.
First thought = More Big Priest support. Second thought, maybe not completely, but still pretty dang good.
A Big Priest would not want to play this minion, as it would threaten their precious pool of possible resurrect targets, not to mention Barnes. I can see this working better in a Deathrattle Priest, bringing them back for two more procs of their DR.

Tried Boom first, lost to Atramedes due to bad luck. Tried Hagatha and got milled by Vaelastrasz. Tried Boom again and got 40 min 22 sec, so goddamn close that I had to at least try one more run.
Boom again, got Grimmer Patron and The Hand of Rafaam, the synergy of which is insane. If he tries to remove patrons, he keeps the curse. Play the curse to get rid of it, the patrons swarm the board. I actually drew the patron most games too, carrying hard. And the cherry on top was I think the fastest Rag ever by topdecking the Orb of the Untold on turn 4 for exact lethal :P
I have this issue, as well. Glad you posted b/c I thought I was crazy. I had one of each and was excited to have 2 golden copies but my Recurring Villain disappeared. I built a deck (wild shaman) to mess around with the twin golden Villains and then when I went to play a game it said the deck was not valid for the format. Then when I went back into the deck there were only 29 cards in it. No second golden villain. I don't think it's a visual bug... but I suppose I could be wrong that I didn't have a golden one prior to the event.
Thanks. It's actually the third deck in a series that I started a while back on HearthPwn. I have now copied the other two over (with the same decklists and write-ups) to OoC, and can be found at:
Agreed. These past few months have been the best Hearthstone experience I have ever had, and its not just with the game. Blizzard finally got their stuff together!
Hm Flux, do I hear some ironic tones? :). I think Hearthstone is not in a very bad shape but the balancing is simply non existent. Warrior is a total fail because the Hero give all minions Rush. Too much, too frustrating for i.e. Priest Players.
Thanks for your kind comment, always nice to hear that people like these.
There's an easy way to find all previous posts too: click on the tags at the end of the post. For example clicking "Wild" tag should lead you here: https://outof.cards/tag/wild. That should have all our Wild spotlights to date.
And here comes my crushed hope for a good mill/n'zoth rouge in wild. Vanish alone is not enough, and i hoped for some good board clear, but this "class identity" said "NOPE". feelsbadman
Neat deck, I used to love deathwing dragonlord back in the old gods days with N'zoth, nice to see them with the new cards too. Will definitely give this a try - thanks!
I got one pack for leaving it on in the background, but I think my computer went to sleep so it only streamed 4 or 5 hours. You need 6 hours to get a second pack.
I am not sure I will pre-order, but I might clear out my World of Warcraft gold. I think I have a million gold, so that is good for at least 7 WoW tokens or $105 in Blizzard dollars.
it's mean streets all over again! didn't give rogue a 3rd jade because it was "too strong" then jade for rogue was not competitive.
same thing gonna happen here - rogue continues to get screwed
Eh, rogues actually had ways to generate more jades, like unearthed raptor and shadowstep. The problem is the rogues' jade generation sucked. Jade swarmer had to be played, and then had to die in order to spawn a jade. That's a pretty big deal for a class that relies on tempo. It's a huge tempo loss to play a 1/1 that has to wait 2 turns to be useful, and likewise, shadowstepping a jade spirit is a meh play as well. Add that to the fact that rogue has no healing and you just don't have a class that's suitable for the jade archetype.

New Rogue Spell - Plague of Madness
Yeah but if rogue had a 3rd jade card like the other two classes maybe it would have been viable
blizzard is just too afraid of giving rogue good tools - need a rotating core set or somethin

Hm Flux, do I hear some ironic tones? :). I think Hearthstone is not in a very bad shape but the balancing is simply non existent. Warrior is a total fail because the Hero give all minions Rush. Too much, too frustrating for i.e. Priest Players.
But let's wait and see, hoping for the best!
New Rogue Spell - Plague of Madness
It costs 1. And no one is stopping you from removing their weapon on the same turn.
Have you pre-ordered the expansion yet?
We cannot have over 100 bucks in Blizzard balance, which could have possible from using all of those WoW tokens from WoW gold.
I bought the preorder so I could all the available tokens.
4 Legendary Card Reveals on July 18 at San Diego Comic-Con
Revealing all 4 legendaries seems too good to be true. It says we'll just get a sneak peak so that's all I'm expecting.

New Rogue Spell - Plague of Madness
I hope it will have good interaction with the upcoming rogue cards. But judging how this is a 'last minute change', it probably is an outcast.
I'm gonna play safe and say it won't see any play, unless rogue gets more deathrattle/zoo support in this expansion.

As someone who is slowly dipping their toes into Wild, I really appreciate this spotlight series - as well as the deck creators. So thanks!

Hey FrostyFeet, I love these wild deck spotlights - thanks! It's great the amount of attention wild is given on this site.
Any chance you could link to prior weekend wild deck articles? I am just looking for an easy way to find them all.
Thanks again!
New Rogue Spell - Plague of Madness
Maybe it's something to do with Rogue Quest.. like kill x minion with ur hero or something.. or yeah maybe it is boom scheme 2.0

Plague of Madness
This can be used as weapon removal, since it replaces both weapons.
Also, you can run this with Ooze cards to remove the downside.
