Great card but just not enough good rush minions to justify its use. At its best, this one will somehow survive turn 3 to unleash a double [card]restless mummy[/card] or maybe even [card]kargath bladefist[/card], but honestly in my respects its just not as good as [card]bloodsworn mercenary[/card] which can hit multiple cards not just rush minions.

Probably a sleeper …

But that also means you're sacrificing tempo for value. Probably not that good in zoo, in my opinion.

This can copy [card]kanrethad prime[/card], and that's probably the best value in warlock for this card.

In Dhunters, this is practically one of the best value cards in a big demons deck. Great even on discover.

I love the design of cards like these, just plain value cards that are specific on its effect.

Our only hope is that its been playtested and found to either be problematic on its own or that its just straight up weaker than [card]skull of gul'dan[/card] in tempo dhunters.

There's a small sliver of hope that this isn't really an autoinclude inside tempo dhunter lists. It still doesn't really do much, and its real strength is mucking …

If you're ahead, then you're on course for victory anyway since totem shaman snowballs hard. But if from behind, this is still a 4/5 for 5, maybe 4/7 with [card]totemic might[/card], but its not exactly hard to remove. And one of the foibles of totems, which was why totem shaman tends not to do well from behind, is that they …

Really love this card. Probably one of the few cards in dhunters that actually give some value, and it copies specific cards so its possible to just discount or buff something and get double the value.

Big dhunters can really use this, especially since [card]raging felscreamer[/card] discounts and can stack.

Yeah, the outcast effect is really meh, nothing …

Honestly, if I hadn't stumbled across this article, I might never have guessed that Tom's card is [card]phantom militia[/card], which I was spamming in quest warrior 2 years back.

Game winning card against control decks, and how good this card is will depend solely on the opponent's ability to redraw their hand.

The worst thing about this card is that it can be discovered as a last ditch attempt by tempo dhunters to deny a win to the other side. Other than that its chief role would be …

At some point so much anger will be concentrated on this one card that team5 will nerf/change it just because they've been receiving death threats. And no wonder. This is likely to either be a 5 star middle finger to your opponent's face or a 1 star shitshow that never gets played and stranded on the left side of your …

Solid card that is instantly playable in totem decks. There might even be a place for it in other shaman decks as well, since the deathrattle's quite handy.

Oh, and its possible to get this on turn 1 with [card]lightning bloom[/card], skip turn 2, and [card]totemic reflection[/card] on turn 3 into opponent concedes.

Its possibly the best thing …

Probably one of the best thing to happen to totem shaman for a long time. And it was coming too. For some reason, we only ever see the best of an archetype when most of their toys will be rotating in less than a years time.

How does this help totem shaman? Well for one thing, its no longer …

That pavel tribute is still probably the most mishandled of them all. Considering that both his and Tom's tribute cards are practically impossible to discern, its just a shame honestly.

Tom's probably the hardest to create a card out of, not helped by the numbers behind his name, but you'd think his card would've been a rogue card considering …

It fits paladin because its CEREMONIAL, and it fits warriors because its a MAUL

Genius.

Can this replace [card]truesilver champion[/card], [card]underlight angling rod[/card], [card]wrenchcalibur[/card], [card]ancharrr[/card], or [card]livewire lance[/card]?

Depending on your answer, this card is either a niche no one's thinking about, or completely trash.

Yes, the taunt student can be an epic 10/10 or even a respectable 5/5 but then you'd have to go with a 2/2 weapon that probably doesn't do …

Hmmm...what is a kind of weapon both paladins and warriors will use?

I know. Its going to be a big hammer, colored red, and christened with the name 'ceremonial'

A little underwhelming at first glance. Well, okay, its very underwhelming.

Theoretically you play this, and next turn get a massive taunt minion, but since warrior rarely plays …

From what I've seen in asia masters last week, a 6 mana warglaives just doesn't cut it anymore. Some pros are switching into a more regular aggro deck rather than midrange with plenty of 1-2-3 cards and ditching the usuals like [card]eye beam[/card].

I would be very upset if the spell damage does not stack with more spells.

That'll be like a proverbial tomato pasted on my face as I downgrade my instant 5 stars rating to 0.

This card is just nuts. In aggro matches just play this massive 3/8, and if you don't belly up you're likely to win the next turn if this sticks.

In other matches, just keep everything in hand, drop this + [card]sorcerer's apprentice[/card] and go to town with cheap spells. Reload with [card]evocation[/card] or [card]mana cyclone[/card] if needed.

3/8 for 5. The statline is insane enough.

If there was ever a time where getting the coin for starting second will start to annoy the living daylights out of players, its now.

So just build a small spell deck, this + double apprentice = overpowered bipedal malygos. Lets not even speculate on how this will go on …

Hunterace reveals [card]ace hunter kreen[/card]. Congrats to the 2019 world champ

Really powerful card in dhunters where minions are typically low in health. Also, it saves the face from damage which is always a plus.

Less powerful in hunter, but hunter has plenty of rush cards so this can't exactly be ignored on board either.

Just a …
