Another good follow up to [card]Spawnpool Forager[/card]. I don't see any class having a murloc deck right now besides Shaman, and I'm a little skeptical of Murloc Shaman's finishing potential, but I still think [card]Lushwater Murcenary[/card] will find a home …

Reminds me of [card]Twilight Summoner[/card], which probably means the initial body is too slow and non-threatening for the cost to ever see play.

Traditionally these self-destroy effects have seen play when they are tempo oriented, which [card]Grimoire of Sacrifice[/card] isn't. Control Warlock already was [card]School Spirits[/card] and [card]Fire Breather[/card] for AoE and Zoolock doesn't care for the AoE. Overall, I just don't see …

This is a four mana [card]SI:7 Agent[/card] that is more easily played on curve and has additional upside. Given how much Rogue likes drawing cards and using [card]Shadowstep[/card], the upside can easily be realized. The only thing going against this …

Considering the historic aggressive nature of murlocs, this doesn't lend well to that history. Murlocs want to be dumped onto the board as early as possible, and I don't think plus one attack and rush makes it worth holding them …

This is pretty synergistic with Libram Paladin, which has [card]Animated Broomstick[/card], multiple cheap holy spells with [card]Libram of Wisdom[/card], and cares about the lifesteal. You also more reliably get holy spells with [card]Knight of Anointment[/card], making [card]Veteran Warmedic[/card] a consistently …

The existing of [card]Arid Stormer[/card] makes this a promising start to a promising elemental windfury package in Shaman. I think that all the mana breakpoints will work out for the elemental chain in that archetype, especially with the two-drop elementals …

While this isn't as flashy as the other elementals, it will probably be needed to curve into the insane midgame tempo swing of [card]Lilypad Lurker[/card], which is basically a [card]Rotnest Drake[/card] for elementals. I also wouldn't underestimate the AoE ping …

Reminds me of [card]Rotnest Drake[/card] and [card]Vilespine Slayer[/card] as another midgame tempo removal that is very powerful. There is a Windfury Shaman that could curve [card]Fantastic Firebird[/card] or [card]Earth Revenant[/card] into [card]Lilypad Lurker[/card] for a monster top end curve. I'm …

Curving [card]Kindling Elemental[/card] into this into [card]Whack-a-Gnoll Hammer[/card] will be an almost unbeatable curve. There's also just a lot of quality two-drop elementals to curve into this with [card]Cagematch Custodian[/card] and [card]Menacing Nimbus[/card]. There's already a sort of fringe Windfury …

Combos nicely with [card]Murloc Tinyfin[/card] and is a good follow up to a one-drop murloc. My only concern with Murloc Shaman is that they may not have a great ability to reload and can burn out on tempo fairly quickly. …

This is probably the stickiest one-drop Shaman has ever seen that it will most likely see play across all aggressive Shaman strategies and not just Murloc Shaman.

The issue I have with [card]Firemancer Flurgl[/card] is that 1) murloc decks want to flood the board as soon as possible and not hold on to murlocs and 2) Shaman doesn't have a great way to refill on murlocs as …

Zoolock likes buffing their minions, but I just can't help but to feel that [card]Wriggling Horror[/card] is just a more efficient way to buff your minions. Horror buffs for the same amount as [card]Kabal Outfitter[/card], but applies both buffs immediately …

Compared to [card]Veteran Warmedic[/card], this doesn't do nearly enough for casting a holy spell in Paladin. This also doesn't do enough in Priest as their tempo buff deck is nowhere near competitive. Since these are the two classes that care …

Secret Mage has seen some competitive play recently in standard, but it's losing [card]Ancient Mysteries[/card] and [card]Cloud Prince[/card]. [card]Oasis Ally[/card] is a board-centric secret, so it only makes sense in a tempo-based deck like Secret Mage. While I don't think …

Mage loves to run spells, so this is often a two mana draw two and occasionally is free. We know how good free card draw is thanks to Rogue, so I think Mages will build their decks to support consistently …

Along with [card]Razormane Battleguard[/card], this is promising for an aggressive Taunt Druid build as [card]Mark of the Spikeshell[/card] is effectively a [card]Hand of A'dal[/card] in that context. I don't think there is much use case outside of aggression since there …

There are some interesting applications with this in an aggressive Taunt Druid deck cheating out a [card]Toad of the Wilds[/card] or [card]Bonechewer Brawler[/card] alongside this. [card]Razormane Battleguard[/card] isn't consistent enough mana cheat to warrant inclusion in a slower Druid deck, …

On one hand, this is a good beast to curve into [card]Menagerie Warden[/card]. On the other hand, this isn't a great beast to pull off of the powerful [card]Guardian Animals[/card] as even [card]Teacher's Pet[/card] has been cut from Guardian Druid. …
