In case anyone is wondering what Tamsin's rift does, it summons a 3/3 imp.

I like [card]dreadlich tamsin[/card] as a card, but if you're committing to play it you'll likely have to drop the discard package like [card]blood shard …

I like the idea of a beast druid. But admitably these dont look very good. Out of all [card]frostsaber matriarch[/card] is the only one with the best chance to see play and that's only because it can get to 0. …

There's plenty of demons you'll want. [card]taintheart tormenter[/card], [card]illidari inquisitor[/card], [card]ancient void hound[/card], [card]priestess of fury[/card], and of course, [card]pit commander[/card]. Its basically a very flexible card that will go anywhere you can fit at least illidari inquisitor, because getting …

Too bad its a warlock card eh ;)

Im actually waiting to see if dhunter gets more early game cards that can decently curve into this so we can have a midrange dhunter deck of which this card may be the perfect 4 drop in.

Its obviously …

Well, we've seen this before when it was leaked.

Until we see the frost cards, it may be impossible to judge its viability. On its own, its lucky enough to have the elemental tag, of which without its significantly …

Its actually decent, if not, very good enough to see play in ranked. Basically only aggro decks will play without legendaries, and only very rarely do we see the meta taken away by decks that play absolutely no minions, legendary …

Its disappointing that the stat gain is so low. A 3/8 taunt on 4 is very good for its cost, but its only slightly better than the usual vanilla 3/6 and this one comes with a condition that's very testing. …

Unfortunately for this card, even a 5 mana 8/8 windfury that require you to have less than half your health gone may not reach far enough to swing the board for you. In most cases whenever you drop this low, …

Its [card]frost nova[/card] that also kills something, so is there any reason to say that this wouldn't see any play?

The only downside this posses is that it needs a wounded target to even work. So in a control …

If it works, it'll make a massive minion that your opponent likely needs a response or they die.

But unfortunately, it'll likely work less than 50% of the time, and if it ever becomes meta it'll get even worse …

The most significant part of this card is its cost. At 5, its kinda expensive considering that it can be played around.

Maybe with 3/4 body board swing is enough to overturn the massive cost that comes with this …

This is just insane as a board clear options. At least it cost 5, or otherwise this would literally be in every deck bar aggro.

Whether you call it [card]defile[/card], or just smaller [card]lord godfrey[/card], the fact remains that …

If you survive past turn 6 in duels when you have 20 health that's already an achievement. Its sort of like the discard cards like [card]blood shard bristleback[/card]. Sure you get a free win easily, but the card gets gradually …

A very interesting condition indeed.

Probably more relevant in wild where evenlock can get to 15 fairly easily. In standard however, its not as straight forward. Even questlock struggles to do it by turn 5 courtesy of the many …

The conditions are difficult to accomplish, and while you'll end up with a 30 attack minion at the end of the day it has neither rush nor taunt so at very best this card kills a bunch of tokens and …

I should have clarified in my original comment. Darkshire councilman works whenever a minion is played whereas this one needs them to first die.

So in my opinion, its just weaker. 1 extra health doesn't immediately make it better

Because [card]coerce[/card] can destroy undamaged minions? Plus this freezes your own board too.

But this card is clearly something else. Depends on the build, but its not strictly a better coerce.

Not another one of this cards. Why the hell are we giving warrior [card]frost nova[/card]?

The only real play around is that this card actually requires a minion to be damaged to work, but essentially being able to take …

Its flexible and its a good stated minion most of the time. Use this to efficiently utilize your mana, or just drop it early for good tempo. If it gains at least divine shield and rush, its already by default …
