Reminds me of [card]shadow clone[/card]. Likely this card will share its fate.

The problem with this card is that your opponent will nearly always just attack with their weakest minion first, so they suffer little damage back and they get to kill the minion summoned out.

But there's always the chance that your opponent has one big boy …

Livestream early? That's yet another precedent made I guess. Kibler is an all rounder, so in my opinion they made a good choice.

 

So priest's location gives out buffs, make me think that paladin's would be to give out divine shields.

At this point any mention of deathrattle rogue is basically a meme, so let's hope …

[card]Prince renathal[/card] may actually get a nerf in future, because the balancing act will eventually get ridiculous. Hearthstone has for the most part been designed around 30 health, and a change in the health total has a significant impact on power levels introduced.

No matter how you cut it, aggro decks are meant to gas out just around the …

Seems like someone in team5's mercs devs just loves his iteration of dopplegangsters that the nerf is pathetic. What exactly is this particular fight that's so valuable that a proper rebalancing cannot be done? You're still required to run specific mercs just so they dont kick your arse on the way to the boss. Funnily, even the boss fight is …

The timeline between expansions is roughly 4 months. Sunken city started on 12th April, this expansion will start 26th July.

Barrens started on 30th Mar, stormwind started 3rd Aug

In other words, we're starting the party about 2 weeks early. May not matter much to some, but to others its potentially about 1000+ gold. That's 10 packs minimum …

Quote From theo333

1 Anima counts as 1 mana I assume?

Infuse procts with each friendly minion death. So in essence, if this is in your hand while three friendlies dies, then this gets +2+2

There is a world where this card is good. Shadow priest is already a good aggro archetype, and if you manage to swarm boards this card may get to a 4/5 by turn 3 perhaps. Even if it only gets there on turn 4, you can ping for 2 and play a 4/5 taunt

Besides, even if all fails, …

Getting legendary minions are options all classes would want. So this card is good.

But giving your opponent stuff rarely ever is, so this card is bad.

 

One good thing is that you get the card first, and your opponent can fk up. But let's be honest here, unless all three legendaries are good, your opponent …

If rogue can fill the board this one card can potentially draw you 4 cards for 4 mana.

But unfortunately, rogue rarely ever swarm boards so you're probably just drawing 2 for 2. Still good though, given how bad rogue draws nowadays.

Will see play unless better draw options exists. But this card is certainly teetering on the …

[card]Envoy of lazul[/card] saw no play so I dont expect this to either.

The problem is justification. Why even bother? The cards you get are random, the conditions are not easy, and even if you managed to guess all three correctly you're being given cards that may not necessarily help your gameplan, unless the gameplan itself is to meme …

Probably bad, unless your opponent's board is particularly full of minions or there's a cheap way to do a whirlwind, like [card]iceblood garrison[/card]. The problem is that no fool will ever let you setup your turn in such a way that this ever gets massive and clears the board. And without those setup, this card is just a weaker samuro, …

This one has potential but only because muck pool is available. Without [card]muck pools[/card] you're really just hoping it survives a turn so you can do your insane moves, otherwise you'd have to wait until about turn 7 realistically.

The one thing this card has going for it is the fact that it has 6 health, which means your …

After reading the desc again, you might be right in that you get copies of the card you guessed correctly. So you can get 2 out of 3 right and get 2 cards.

But looking at how [card]envoy of lazul[/card] turned out, I still think this is a card for either aggro or murlocs. Its not necessarily telling you …

Its the new baku/genn. The downsides are fairly trivial because some classes simply draws way too well. You can legit just play more draw options and cheaper minions to fill your curve while playing control. That's not impossible certainly.

While I dont think every deck will be playing it I wouldn't be too surprised to see some competitive decks …

The problem with this card is that it costs 3 mana which means its never realistically going to make those evolve shaman nightmares come back. Muck pools adequately does that job better than this one.

But when it works it'll likely cause a paroxysm of glee, while your opponent gets stroke from bursting blood vessels.

Honestly, if evolve …

3 years, 8 months ago · on New Shaman Spell - Primordial Wave

Completely and utterly busted because its basically 0 mana evolve. With [card]goldshire gnoll[/card]s on the prowl you can bet seeing a 10 drop on turn 4 again.

And if nothing else, it upgrades your minions for 0 mana. What's there not to like?

3 years, 8 months ago · on New Shaman Location - Muck Pools

The main point of the card is that its a 0 mana ping. Basically for 1 mana you get to do this three times and your opponent can't (for now anyway) interact with it.

I think it's hard to want this unless your minions benefit from it as well, via frenzy effects etc. Because dealing 1 damage is nice …

Alright, I've always been a sucker for detective themes and gothic castles so this expansion looks incredible to me. The cards though?

[card]Sanguine depths[/card] and [card]muck pools[/card] as the new card type is interesting simply because it guarantees effects, you dont have to spend mana for them. Looking at their power level, I'd say that they will see play. …

I like packs. But since this expansion has been cut short for whatever reason you'd think they be using this event to either give us more gold or at least more packs of the next expansion.

Guess I'll keep dreaming then.

So I guess the days of people adding you for the sole purposes of bm would be a thing of the past? Something tells me the report button will likely be either overused and over-ignored by blizz, because the last thing they need right now is regulating their own community.
