I can certainly see this being played, but not sure how impactful it can be.

The fact is that with the duo tribal tags, you're always likely to buff something in hand, and more often than not it'll be more than 1 minion. So if you can spend 2 mana for a crocalisk that buffs two minions for +1+1, …

Need to always respect lifesteal, no matter the convoluted conditions.

Its likely a meta choice, because on its own its fairly crap. Or rather I should say its not worth inclusion into decks, because even without lifesteal it does have rush.

So where will this fit? Most likely DK, unless burn decks are tier 1. Unfortunately its conditions …

3 mana to do 4 damage, that's what this card is. And with 5 health, on curve this card is monstrously difficult to remove unless you already have board.

Of course, they can always just remove the target, but that's beside the point. Its 3 mana for a minion that's hard to remove, and does 4 damage. I'd be …

Gonna have to respect cards like this, even though Im about 70% sure this card would never see any competitive play in the next 2 years.

Arena giant for sure, because at very least you'll likely get a good card out of it. In standard however, we're asking why not just play the legendary you want in your deck? …

Ironically, if you need 2 damage for 3 mana with an aggressively stated body then likely you're an aggro/midrange deck that usually will have something on board.

A joke of a card that baffling from every standpoint. Why not make it a 2/4 with taunt? Then at least it could have made it into control decks. As it stands, …

Arena filler.

What's so important in standard that you need to use up 4 mana to psuedo-protect anyway? If this is in your deck then you're either pushing for achievements or you're just in for memes.

Arena filler.

But once a while it turns up and you win the game because of it. However, that implies this card is actually a deliberate selection in decks, and that I cannot accept. How many games are decided on turn 4 tradings? Most decks are more or less primed to destroy you by turn 5 and this card …

Is unlikely, but it may well be the only tradeable card in standard past rotation. For that, I can't help but at least put it on 3 stars.

Because lets be real here, this card is trash 90% of the time. The only good thing is that you can throw it back for another draw, and that's likely the …

If this is cheated out, its basically a board clear, as long as it doesn't die. Even if it does its still likely clear half the board of stuff.

Unfortunately, if its not cheated out you're playing a 3/10 for 8 that doesn't always do what you need consistently. Not a good start. If your opponent is playing big …

You play this and imagine it being like [card]leapfrogger[/card]. Then you get AoEd, concede, remove this card from your deck and ask the gods why you'd even bother.

There's really no way to describe this other than this being bait for deck builders. Poor stats, doesn't protect against AoE, and perhaps worse of all is the fact that everyone …

Arena mite. In constructed, the only class that'll ever fall prey to this would be paladin. Every other class would be scratching heads on what the thought process was for you to include this into your deck.

The only niche this thing will ever have is existing as a 1 mana 1/2 mech, which may be useful to both …

Its not strictly a powercreep over [card]faceless manipulator[/card] but it does enable combos, and probably will at some point.

You just can't dismiss a card like this, even if its application is currently unknown. Its clearly printed for a reason other than filler. Ive been wanting to play [card]moonbeam[/card] druid for ages in standard, might actually get to do …

It has charge. That alone makes it dangerous, and worthy of respect.

DK, pally and hunter are in good position to buff this and finish the game. In fact, it gives BBF DK a viable finisher where in the past its mostly just [card]gnome muncher[/card] or bust.

This will see play, if only for one expansion. I wouldn't be surprised …

Likely shit to be honest.

Because for 6 mana without rush or taunt, its just going to get you killed. Even in deathrattle decks, this card is simply too slow and inconsistent.

I would love it if this actually becomes viable, so to give it a happier ironic end, but more likely team5 gave it a very apt …

There's probably something interesting someone will come out with this but for me its just a card I use to complete achievements.

Because I simply dont see where this card fits in. Its almost a tech card, to be used in case you play jailer against a control deck, or get scammed off your deck in some way. Maybe …

Some interesting cards;

- [card]photographer fizzle[/card] is a card that was good years ago when attrition control was viable but now its niche. Its best use is likely as tech card for when you decide to play jailer and your opponent is a control deck who can deal with that. Likely an ETC band card at best.

- …

It might be that Im misunderstanding how this card works. The wording is a bit confusing, because it looks very much like you get your deck swapped back the minute this thing dies or gets silenced, since its not a battlecry.

A bit weird then. Because if it really works like that, then this card is severely less valuable. …

Because if your opponent's tony is still in his deck then you've technically switched his entire gameplan for 5 mana.

Not so threatening if its an aggro deck. But against value decks like druid? Or any rogue deck. Druid plays nothing for 3 turns, then get their deck swapped out and suddenly their hand is shit and they need …

Its a decent weapon tutor, but most classes that typically have weapons tend to also have tutors like DK or warrior.

Likely a card for classes that dont usually have weapons. I know in wild this can easily tutor out [card]twig of the world tree[/card] or its trigger. More reason why this card shouldn't be underestimated, but its still …

Yeah, Im aware of that. Thats why I thought its likely to find a home in druid or warlock.

But we need to first see all the new weapons before relooking into this.
