  • Five stars, will definitely break the game and be one of the first nerfs.

  • Big-minon Druid is getting several insanely good minions. As I've mentioned elsewhere, it's an epic, so you cannot expect it to be a good general-purpose card. It is strong when you can exploit it, and Druid can definitely exploit it. It's almost a better Gigafin when used properly, and Druid has all the tools to use it properly, so I give it 4 stars.

  • It's already meta-defining, so I have no choice but to give it 5 stars.

  • As an epic, this cannot be expected to be strong as a general-purpose card. Big minion decks with mana cheat will certainly exploit it to great effect. It gets 4 stars because it will be a major headache in decks that use it correctly.

  • Locations are quite strong, but they won't be in every deck. You'll run it only if there's a specific top-tier, overplayed deck that absolutely relies on a location as part of its win condition. I give this 2 stars.

  • Infuse decks should never be in topdeck mode, so that's not really a concern. Any deck geared toward infuse will run this. It gets 4 stars.

  • Locations are all extremely powerful, and discovering from your own deck is the best type of discover, so this is gets 5 stars. I think the played win rate will be quite high in most decks.

  • The cost is prohibitive, and so far I see no payoff cards that will be all that synergistic. Is it any surprise that a card named Red Herring is a trap? One star!

  • Easy 4 stars. Fits into nearly any deck, and sticky cards like this always see success. Also counts as a two-in-one for the purposes of infuse.

  • Dismissing it as an "Arena card" is a bit silly. Arena cards are actually quite strong in Standard when the meta is heavily minion-based, which it definitely will be. I give it 3 stars because several archetypes will definitely use it, even if it's not the best all-purpose neutral.

  • I agree with Nightmare -- so many decks depend on curving out very precisely that I think this little gem will shine. It's even better when the opponent wants to play multiple small minions, which many do at the moment. I give it 3 stars because it's worth considering whenever you have an open slot.

  • Easy four stars because it fits into every infuse archetype and is a pretty good card on its own.

  • A 2-cost 2/2 with discover is just plain good. Any deck with a little extra space should consider this. (I'm looking at you, Reno-thal!) I'd give it 3.5 stars if I could but I will round up to 4 because I think it's going to lead to a lot more rage than anyone is expecting.

  • Rating the card, not the archetype, I give it 3 stars because the DR can hit face.

  • With Brann, you get two of each, minus one due to board space, which means if you high roll, you'll have two 6-attack charge minions.

    Without Brann, if you have two Castle Kennels in play, you can boost the charge to 9 attack.

  • It also lets DH fish for Relics.

  • Seems like a fun game, but I hate everything about the business model and the way they are rolling it out.

  • The stats are good, but at this point there are so many 1-Cost 1/3 minions that it's not all that impressive. The battlecry is not great. Picking a card that you want and do not mind giving to your opponent is going to be tough. Picking a card that's not super easy to guess is nearly impossible because there are too many bad legendaries. I give it 2 stars, and that second star is mainly for the stat line.

  • Quote From Hydrafrog

    MY question on this is if you get multiple copies of the card, or draw multiple cards with the Infuse?  It reads like you'll get multiple copies of it, but I'd like to know for sure. 

    If infused, you draw one spell and get one additional copy of the drawn spell that disappears at the end of the turn. If you cast the temporary copy, you do not get another one.

    It does a lot for 1 mana, so I give it 4 stars.

  • I hear they are officially changing the class name from Shaman to Fun-Ruiner, which means this gets 5 stars.
