    That....is pretty damn sick and can spiral out of control really fast. I hope they playtested this enough.

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    Questline support. This probably never comes down as a Tempo play, but dropped with an Overload card to hide it behind the Taunt.

    Again, it is nice to see a good number of cards to support an archetype. I think this  will be quite frustrating to see come down and immediately hide itself behind 2-3 taunts.

    Unfortunately, common sense isn't as common as it should be.

    Decent overload pay off. Getting extra minions out of your cards is strong, especially with taunt.

    Too slow, and too cumbersome. There no chance you're saving up overload cards just so this card can shine, and even if you manage it its only spawning 2/3s.

    The only god play this card has is a turn 4 Lightning Bloom into two more overload cards. Even still the tokens have a mere 2 attack which means it doesn't necessarily take value trades all that easily. And you've just emptied your hand for this.

    4 mana is too much, enemy can easily kill this with a spell, too.

    The worst of the overload synergy cards, just too much of a tempo sacrifice.

    I cannot say enough of how much I like this card.  The 4 mana to get it out is kind eh, but the 5 health it carries is pretty fun and if you have Lightning Bloom you get something to protect it right out the gate and potentially something else on top of it with the mana you get from that card.  A good soft taunt as well

    Awesome card! It shouldn't be hard to spam a lot of taunts off this, especially since you can unlock overloaded crystals again.

    It's ok but 4 mana means late to get impact.

    Seems good, since a lot of overload cards are cheap, but for some reason I feel like this should have been a 0 attack totem.

    Obvious support for a questline deck. This should help make that deck just a bit stronger.

    This card might be too slow, but it has potential....

    In general, I'd like if we got more totems instead. Such a big part of shamans.

    For the quest one already needs a bunch of overload cards. This isn't overload. Maybe it helps one live. 

    Chumbawumba is the worst band name.

    This can spiral out of control real dang fast with Lightning Bloom and how cheap Overload cards tend to be.

    Purple wolf? Don't mind if I do. In all seriousness though, this card is a great value and anti-aggro generator, which would help when you're overloaded. I'm voting 4/5 stars coz the art is badass as well
