    Count me in among the doubters. This seems extremely slow. Maybe you can get away with it in Standard, but I'd never play this in Wild.

    My first impression was that it is bad because you can't play it on curve without losing the temporary copy, but at worst it's a vanilla card that tutors a shadow spell which is okay. Also thanks for pointing out the Table Flip synergy, that's a nice idea.

    Awesome value for your dust obviously, and this time it comes with fun decks! I hope some of them are powerful enough to play this on ladder without getting steamrolled.

    Thanks for the table Suchti! Maybe it's just me being used to the Wild power level, but I'm not impressed. The whole package seems lacking something and I can't even tell you what it is because the set is all over the place. I don't have much hope for DH until the mini set.

    Nice minion if you can cheat it out. Demon Warlock hasn't been a thing in Wild for a while, but maybe it's time to give Skull of the Man'ari another spin. You could even argue this is better than Voidlord because the tokens are way better for later revival via Bloodreaver Gul'dan.

    I really like the pun but I don't see this getting played much. It pairs well with Going Down Swinging and the little Lifesteal Demon but it's not really progressing your game plan... Doesn't make the cut imo.

    Another card I'm super hyped for! Wild aggro decks will love this. Obviously Pirate Rogue, but also Aggro Druid and maybe even Shadow Priest. Turn 1 Treasure Distributor into two copies of 3/2 Parachute Brigand and 2/1 Patches anyone?

    Amazing art, amazing flavor, Hunter's favorite keyword, strong Battlecry, fits into current archetypes, ideal key word. Plush ticks all the boxes and HE'LL GET A DIAMOND VERSION!!

    Very cool artwork, especially on the signature version. I'm still not a fan as it requires some specific hoops to jump through to be worth running it that I don't like. Playing Shaman being the first of them lol.

    Pretty soild in a lot of decks and since Hunter usually has a problem with draw, this could actually turn out very good. I like it!

    Maybe I can't see beyond my regular Shudderwock trauma but I already hate it. Even if it isn't bonkers off the bat, chances are high Shaman will get an insane Battlecry during the next 2 years that somehow works despite the damage restriction. Also note that it doesn't say "this turn" so there's no Mana cap on a combo with another card.

    Arguably a better Sigil of Reckoning since you're able to target it. Will be interesting to see if we can build a Big Warrior around cards like this in Wild.

    Amazing idea, I love it! There's a ton of different ways to go with this and all of them look interesting. Everybody will run this.

    Very interesting card, I like it a lot. If Mechrattle Warrior ever becomes a thing, this will be a centerpiece of the deck. As things are, there's not enough support for it unfortunately.

    As Slagmaw has taught us, stats don't really matter. The effect while dormant would have been okay earlier in the game, but at its current cost and without a reliable way to cheat it out, this card is useless :(

    Super amazing card that is the equivalent of Prismatic Beam for Warlock. This makes want to try Even Handlock in Wild again :)

    Absolutely not my kind of card but I get that there are people who enjoy this kind of stuff. Just please don't turn up in my packs okay?

    I'll pick up Suchti's comment and speculate this might see play in Wild where there are better targets. I really have to try and build a Big Mech Warrior deck.

    Very very strong card and a key element in Spell Druid if that deck comes together. One of the Standard decks I'm the most looking forward to :)

    The wind-up mechanism looks cool from a flavor point of view, but I'm not sure if it holds up in the actual game. At the very least, this will be used for some very funny meme combos.
