Well I really like that flavor for a Hydra beast, 3 heads, 3 attacks, much flavor. Definitely optimistic about this card seeing as it can go face and with Conditioning (Rank 2), that means a Pyroblast to face and removing 2 other minions.
The question though is: Will Trenchstalker survive all that damage taken? Or is it just an expensive semi boar clear?
Seems like a good compromise, but I question myself: how many times have you found yourself playing Deathwing, Mad Aspect when you had other friendly minions in play?
OTK enabler for shaman which is pretty scary provided they get better token swarming spells aside from Schooling. You could get away with playing this spell on a few big minions too and just hope your opponent can't remove them. Pretty sure this spell will only really work on the turn it's played, coz I'm fairly certain your opponent will try remove as many minions as possible once they see a board full on spell damage minions.
Unfortunately stuck on normal, as embarrassing as it is...but bare in mind I don't spend gold on merc packs, so really struggling to get coins to level up abilities to tier 4 and 5
Also don't spend real money on bundles, coz everyone knows it's a predatory mode... even though that black dragonflight bundle is taunting me every time I open the shop
Eh... the flavor is cute and the different art for the Piranha Swarmers also cute. Other than that, doubt this will see much play unless the Shaman Colossal legendary has synergy.
So at best this card will summon 3 3/3 elementals (chances of summoning 4 is super low). Not that great imo and with this being the first expansion for the new year, the card pool is the smallest it will be in Standard, so you will have a small selection of good spells from each spell school.
It'll probably be too inconsistent and not enough tempo to see play.
I'm still stuck on BRM bounties 😓 so highly doubt I'll be able to get to Onxyia's Lair anytime soon. Guess this is another merc event I'll have to skip... oh well
Wow, even with the bad stat body, this card will be the draw engine for Priest. It can also be your only naga if you're playing a miracle type deck, but would pair well with Priestess Valishj
Well this is an interesting Nature spell for priest. Would've thought this would fit more with Druid flavor-wise but ofc, the 9 mana board clear is always expected for Priest.
I wouldn't want to play this when I have minions on my side of the board, so it's more like a catch-up board clear when your side has no minions.
2 mana draw 2 is good, but the restriction is that this spell can only be played in a naga deck, which we don't know if it'll be good yet. You'd ideally want to be playing a bunch of naga, not just 1 or 2, coz you want the consistency of drawing two cards
Pretty mediocre legendary, but it is value, so maybe a big spell mage might use this? Highly doubtful as it'd be way too slow. Maybe a small spell mage deck, lets say if Mana Cyclone was added to the core set, it might be good.
Oh boy, pairing Twinbow Terrorcoil with Raj Naz'jan would be scary. I'd imagine the damage from both spells would damage the opponent, so possibly an OTK hunter archetype coming
This legendary minion will be a menace during it's entire time in standard. Every expansion a good hunter spell gets printed, this guy will become even more powerful. I'd imagine quite a few OTK hunter decks forming due to this terror. Quest hunter is an obvious archetype where this minion can slot in, but maybe a naga/spell focused OTK hunter could rise from the sea depths
Crazy draw engine for Druid and a big spell that would synergize with Hedra the Heretic. Worst case the minion with taunt summoned is a 3/3 but this card will likely be in a Guff deck whose draw is decent, so most times the minion will be bigger.
Thanks for the advice for the merc comp and I had no idea tasks 16-18 reward 3 packs 😱just goes to show I don't play that much at all

Well, for me personally... as soon as I can play Deathwing, Mad Aspect I play Deathwing, Mad Aspect 😅RIP my board state.
This guy on the other hand only targets enemies so there's no real drawback, other than playing a 9 mana minion

I feel this card could slot into a fatigue/control warrior, only playing it once you're low or outof.cards 😜
1 copy should be enough, coz it'll be a dead card in hand till you get to fatigue
Ok scratch that, grossly misread this card, so have a feeling it'll do nothing if you're out of cards

Might want to update the intro
Well, this will be fun card, even more so in wild. I'm sure there will be a few mechs in the core set, so Mecha-Shark will definitely see play.

So basically Embiggen with no minion cost increase. And if you play Aquatic Form you can play both Azsharan Gardens and Sunken Gardens on turn 2. Pretty busted for an aggro/token druid
Such a cute and powerful card, considering we have multiple cards in standard like Jerry Rig Carpenter, Pathmaker and Raid Negotiator. We also have Pride Seeker which reduces the cost of this spell to 3.
Will definitely see play
