I like it because its practically support for an archetype I like, which is deathrattle dhunter. But will deathrattle dhunter even feature in the next meta? I mean its practically nonexistent since stormwind broke out.

Though the naga assassin …

Its basically a slightly weaker [card]leeroy jenkins[/card] for dhunter, with an additional condition, which may or may not turn out to be a condition at all. But at very least there's no chance of top decking a charge minion out …

Probably because its fullest potential is an extra 8 damage. But realistically its probably doing around half of that, because hunters suck at control, so games will barely last more than 7-8 turns at best.

The scaling is best …

If your holy spell costs 0 when you play it, then it doesn't discount this card. At least that's how the description seems to imply.

So its already hard enough to discount this card, and you're inserting a card …

Its good, but not as good as [card]twinbow terrorcoil[/card].

The only thing this card can hope for is being in a hunter combo deck, where you can copy this card and then blow your opponent up with a few …

Looks good, but probably not going to be doing much realistically. The most it can do is probably 8 damage, because there's no earthly reason why anyone would leave this thing alive for more than the turn its played.

…

Its also 2 turns earlier. If Im going up against an aggro deck, of which the healing is the most relevant against, [card]lightshower elemental[/card] will heal me for 8 and block at least an attack 99% of the time, as …

Of all the cards to get alt skins its this one. Just a palette swap, mind you. A dip into the waters before one day selling alt arts for other cards Im sure.

Probably see it generated more often …

There was a time where I doubted [card]si:7 skulker[/card] could even feature in standard. Proven wrong then. And this card is an even bigger version and more consistent with its effect.

So if nothing else, if midrange comes back …

Its an arena card. Because if [card]lifedrinker[/card] actually does make it to standard, this card just lost all reason there is to even get a second glance at all.

Vanilla stats plus draw a naga. If you squint hard enough it actually reads, draw the second copy or your win con.

Good card I guess. It does have a condition that makes it unplayable on curve most of …

That's a lot of stats for a measly condition.

But [card]mor'shan elite[/card] never did make the playoffs. Will this one share its fate? At least it has taunt by default, I guess.

Don't know if that's enough, because …

Fits neatly into burn shaman. That alone makes it playable no matter what the meta would be next.

And this being a fire spell means that's one more card you can draw from [card]multicaster[/card]. The dredge effect is just …

Looks like this is where shaman is heading towards this expansion: murlocs and swarming piranhas.

Forget the piranhas for a second, and this card is unusual in that its a murloc and that it actually has a decent chance …

It basically tutors your win con, or itself. Even at its worst, it will draw you a card while having decent stats to survive for more than a turn.

But Ive a feeling it'll likely be supplanted by [card]field …

[card]Arcane intellect[/card] for priest that occasionally creates good memes.

That's it really. It does what it needs to do - Draw two minions. Maybe that's good enough in the grand scheme of things. The secondary effect will only occasionally …

Unless there's more stuff behind that we're not seeing, this is one of the worst colossal minions so far. Not because of its stats and potential healing, because those certainly tick the boxes, but because its in a class that …

2/2 for two mana is bad enough. That it'll grant the next card a 2/2 buff is quite something, but your opponent will be able to sniff it a mile away, and you're still giving tempo off to do it, …

I like it because it cheapens [card]the garden's grace[/card]. On its own, at least it'll make 3 taunts, so that's not completely a hopeless card.

But if the next paladin archetype is quest, or buff, then this card has …

Potentially broken card, depending on the mechs available. If [card]replicating menace[/card] is in core then this card is just completely nuts. Otherwise, it'll likely just be as good as [card]defias cannoneer[/card] in that it'll fire once and then never again.
