I can see this on turn three plus Cheaty Anklebiter and something else on turn four, maybe Dreamway Guardians? Could end up with a pretty fat hand of spells
I am currently using my battle.net username, since I didn't have a readily available other idea for one. I have been considering changing my username across the board but haven't figured out a better idea. In investigating this, I noticed there isn't an option to change usernames, something I think would be beneficial to this site.
A lot of the cards in this expansion in general seem to be inconsistent, with powerful, or at least fun, effects in the right circumstances. Considering Yogg Saron, Hope's End is my favorite card, I LOVE this expansion so far.
It seems to me, based on this card design, that this set is pushing support for Zul'jin, with the emphasis on spells. Especially Unleash the Beast and Marked Shot
A cheap heal with twin-spell would make this guy amazing. Edit: Keeper Stalladris plus Crystal Power on turn 3 might just be good enough for a heal druid to be a thing. Who knows. That combo would at least for sure activate the Crystal Stag which would be pretty amazing.
I made Legend with a pre-Shadows version of this deck in March. And you say no aggro tools? There are plenty. Explosive Sheep, Deathlord, Spirit Lash, Greater Healing Potion, Mass Hysteria, etc. The pre-Shadows version of this deck performs extremely well against aggro decks. The only deck it struggles against are Mill decks.
I imagine this is intended to combo with Plot Twist and a large hand (maybe a control-style warlock that naturally has a large hand).
If you play this combo in a demon-heavy version in Wild, Bloodreaver Gul'dan gets pretty silly because each copied demon dies before it can be Psychic Scream'd or something. Looking at you Doomguard. This might be part of why Doomguard got rotated btw--they may have tried this in-house and felt it was a straight-to-wild sorta combo even without Gul'dan. I'm looking forward to seeing a youtube video of this even it doesn't end up legitimately viable on the ladder.
Another thing to consider: later in the game, with a big hand, you would be drawing back many of the same cards since your deck would be small by that point. If you hold stuff until your deck is empty, you could guarantee the results. Dunno if it's good enough to beat all the crazy stuff in wild already but this card is stronger than it looks alone.
And honestly, Stolen Steel became a lot better with the rotation so far. Imagine snagging Hunter's new spell damage weapon or warrior's Wrenchcalibur. Thinking of making a Stolen Steel x2, Deadly Poison x2, with Blink Fox and Underbelly for a start.
Da Undatakah seems like it should go dormant as itself and come back as itself again, based on the card text wording. "Go Dormant. Restore 5 health to awaken this minion." But if it works like you said with Sherazin, it should work the same with this.
Still, the card text wording should apply to Da Undatakah, not to the original minion. Otherwise, the wording should say, "Restore 5 health to awaken Lucentbark." But why should we expect reasonable interactions or wording from Blizzard?
This card is certainly strong for a 2 drop, my fear with no standard legal hallucination is that it wont be a very common turn 2 play. Heres to hoping blizzard prints a NEW one mana spell that gives a card from ANY class, as that's the new direction of thief rogue
It doesn't pull from any class, but the Rogue's newest Classic card - Pilfer - can suit one's needs 8/9 times.
Not even the menu is working properly. Feels like a early 2000 forum which are dying fast.
Oh, no, now I see what you mean.

New Rare Paladin Spell - Call to Adventure
Well, if no one played Small-Time Recruits back in the day, I don't think this card will be played either.

Expansion looks incredible!

This is an amazing card. Should help propel burgle rogue to a healthy spot in the next meta.
New Warlock Card- Aranasi Broodmother
Won’t see competitive play. There’s just so many better things to do on turn six than this . The life gain from drawing it is negligible.
Rise of Shadows
Can't wait to play Underbelly Fence. Legit my favorite card so far <3<3
