He's a half glass full ogre that won't give any lip to negative thinking

[card]Strongman[/card] is probably the best card here. Just board wipe then swing with this is just insane.

[card]Tickatus[/card] is really strong. But it requires a 7 or more mana play first, and the only likely card I can think off that does that is [card]twisting nether[/card]. Plus, its nearly impossible to play in the same deck along with [card]deck …

Unless there's a real benefit to playing secrets in paladin, this will never see play. And even then I still don't think it'll ever see play.

Its only niche is to deny corrupt spell value from your opponent, and cthun pieces. But any good player would've spotted that from miles away anyway. In any case, why would any person …

Paladin secrets are often baffling, but this one makes absolutely no sense flavorwise.

In any case, the potential of this card to completely screw you is about the same as when you decide to put this card into your deck. Just not really worth it really. A poor man's [card]counterspell[/card], like really poor.

5 points for a being a 3/4 for 3 murloc, which is a good deal of bulk.

0 points for the [card]cult master[/card] effect that turns murlocs into legendaries

So I guess, its just an average card. Had the effect been similar to [card]underbelly angler[/card] it would've been great, but requiring that murlocs first be dead? Thats a …

The only real power of this card is that its a murloc that's a 3 mana 3/4 spidertank.

The fact that it refuels with legendary cards is but a small bonus, of which for a murloc deck, wouldn't really be all that useful. Plus, the only way to get extra value off this card is the same condition as …

Quote From FrostyFeet

First of the Enhancement Shaman cards, it seems. If they get a 1-Cost weapon, this will definitely see play. Although I guess it forms a natural curve with [card]Stormforged Axe[/card] as well. It would feel weird if that card saw play though.

In AoO when tempo dhunters were everywhere [card]stormforged axe[/card] was …

Even if its nothing more than 1 tick, it essentially makes your totems harder to kill, and they can actually attack now so your opponent can't just destroy your entire game with nothing more than a few 1/1s on board.

This thing also has 4 health by the way, so if there isn't a board that can straight up …

Its a niche card for a theoretical big shaman deck. The conditions are simply too hard to shaman to pull off in the early game, and honestly, two 3/2s for 2 isn't scary or game breaking.

Maybe there's something else down the line, like a good 1 mana weapon, or some spell that allows you to attack basically for …

Not sold on this to be honest. Most of the time this would be a 2 mana 3/2, which is a fair card, but there's plenty of similarly costed and stated cards that also perform a tech role. If you want more out of this then you'll have to first equip a weapon, of which there's none currently that curves …

There's always the chance that a more midrange big spell druid will appear. At the moment, I agree with you that its not as broken as mountseller turns. But it still gains you 8 health and the possibility of a [card]tirion fordring[/card] highroll.

There might be more support down the line, who knows.

The potential of this to be extraordinary is so wide. Since the clone also has stealth, you can't even deny that card from charging your face without some AoE effect.

Yes, it can also copy a useless minion, but because its a secret, you'll never know or be able to risk it attacking with your sole big minion, unless …

Not really sold as yet on this card. Its just a big card with a big effect, but druid usually want to either play [card]guardian animals[/card] or [card]exotic mountseller[/card] with a bunch of cheap spells.

Don't think this card will change that, but there may yet be more support for a big spell druid down the line.

5 years, 4 months ago · on New Druid Spell - Cenarion Ward

Its basically [card]libram of hope[/card] in druid.

Can't wait to see those [card]solar eclipse[/card]s that gains 16 health and 2 massive minions. Oh, and it will happen around turn 6.

Might be more support for big spell druid later down the line, cause' the current broken play is a bunch of small spells along with cards like [card]exotic …

It can easily be a minion. And even if its a spell, if it curves into this, or after this, then it wouldn't matter. The point is to ideally have a board of totems when this is played.

Its certainly an auto include into totem decks, but I don't think its really any good outside of that.

I still think shaman loses board too easily, and this card looks to me more like a win-more card that snowballs but played from behind is about as useful as a deep pocket with a hole in it.

There's …

Its definitely something, and certain to be in every totem shaman deck. The fact that it can't buff itself is a small note, though if you manage to land [card]totemic reflection[/card] on it then it will secure at least a +1+1 on each.

Unfortunately, its quite useless outside of a dedicated totem deck. If you're not running at least …

Hunter secrets have always been strong and annoying to deal with so this weapon is going the right way. It does seem a little too expensive, and having only 2 attack condemns it slightly since its unlikely to be able to kill anything without support. Its also a weapon, which means its always under threat of ooze, and competition; hunter's …

Essentially with [card]shadowstep[/card] in hand you can bonce anything for another battlecry trigger for a mere 1 mana.

Its just a versatile and strong card, and will definitely see play. Right out of the bat Kronx seems to be the best target for this card. There may be better ones down the line.
