      @MyntyPhresh Where did the name come from?

        @DabsHS we wanted the most over-the-top metal sounding song name ever, and I think one of the other designers, Loucks, delivered :)

          @MyntyPhresh @DabsHS Sure but did you ask @hsdecktech to do the @blizzlet test first?

            @TitoSantanaHS @MyntyPhresh @DabsHS @blizzlet I actually did flag a couple things in this expansion, lol. Leo was a good partner about it.

      @MyntyPhresh Wow 3 colors. That's incredibly limited if they don't release a bunch of 3 color cards with it

        @Togan871 @MyntyPhresh If it works like Sindragosa any card that discovers a Blood/Frost/Unholy Rune card, Frost Strike for example should be able to find this. Nerubian Vizier should also work.

          @ForPony81 @Togan871 Actually, one caveat: CNE cant be discovered or randomly generated. We loved this card and what it did for Rainbow DK, but did not love other DK decks generating this super-win-condition.

            @MyntyPhresh @ForPony81 @Togan871 I'm assuming the dev room had a conversation about this, but... Idk how I feel about the increasing number of hidden rules and caveats in HS, even if they make sense. If part of HS' appeal is that it's fairly simple, needing to check on twitter to know how some cards work is sus.

              @ItsSafeNow_ @ForPony81 @Togan871 I want to expand on this bc i actually think this is great and reasonable point This was a decision that we talked about for a while. That exact point you brought up with hidden info is exactly why we didnt immediately align on this, but ended up aligning later on because (cont)

                @ItsSafeNow_ @ForPony81 @Togan871 - the card still functions exactly the same. It being absent from random generation pools is hidden info, but most of the time you arent purposefully aiming specifically for this. A discover showing you 3 cards that arent this isnt really that suspect (cont)

                  @ItsSafeNow_ @ForPony81 @Togan871 Knowing that info definitely changes how youll play with certain discover cards, but not knowing that info isnt really harming your gameplay experience from whats intended - keeping this card to the BFU deck its aimed for!

                    @ItsSafeNow_ @ForPony81 @Togan871 Apologies if anything i said isnt totally clear, this is definitely a tricky subject to phrase correctly and i am also sleepy LOL

      any one of those 4 numbers (5 / 2 / 1 / 1) will go up per Corpse you've spent this game say youve spent 10 corpses. this could be: - 5(+2) / 2(+3) / 1(+4) / 1(+1) = Deal 7, summon 5 5/2s or even - 5 / 2 / 1(+10) / 1 = Deal 5, summon 2 11/1s (the 2nd number is capped at 7)

        @MyntyPhresh So it’s possible, although unlikely, to get “Deal 30, summon 2 1/1 Souls”? Also, does the 2nd number cap out at 7 minions?

          @Rod_Minn Yes and yes!

        @MyntyPhresh Does the random happen in your hand or when you play it?
