Decent for handbuffs and just generally midrange dragons

I mean...Shaman got two heroes back to back as well. They don't seem to be going for Equality here

Raid the Sky temple is still a bad quest, even in Cyclone Mage.

Also, not running double Sandbinder when your strongest play is Chenvaala is just wrong.

why would you mix Galakrond with Hand?

and for that matter, why would you not run Plague of Flames in a deck like that?

because lore. Onyxia is just the daughter of Deathwing and she's a black Dragon so unless they wanted to give black dragons to two classes she'd never fit in.

we don't play 8-mana 8/8s just for fun. There'S a reason why Ironbark Protector has never seen play.

An 8/8 that does nothing is worthless unless you're desperate

I think the main Issue here is the situations you want to play him you can't afford it.

If your opponent played a Puzzle Box the board is most likely clear...so why would you play a puzzle box of your own?

Same goes for Flamestrike.

The best situation I can imagine is your opponent playing a Dragoncaller …

I wonder how it interacts with spell damage.

Usually 1-damage machine gun spells (Like Arcane Missiles or Avenging Wrath) will only add one additional missile per spell damage.

However, spells like Greater Arcane Missiles that deal more than one damage have the spell damage added to each missile (which gives the same overall damage result, but with a …

Why is this a neutral.

This could have made an interesting card for Priest or maybe Warlock (flavour wise at least) but instead they basically just printed a neutral [card]Oasis Surger[/card] for any lackey-based deck (or just token decks in general).

Like, why wouldn't you just slam this into most decks? What could be a better turn 5 …

and this is why I gave up on maintaining a stable Wild collection long ago.

As much as Standard is a dumpsterfire, at least it keeps changing while Wild is just a Nightmare Amalgam of powercreep.

 

The thing I hate most about Wild is the fact that despite a huge cardpool only a fraction (and probably …

that's what I was thinking

Or maybe +4 attack permanently.

Really, it's the HP buff that makes this overpowered because if you run it into a tiny dragon you're left with a completely overstatted monstrosity.

Not to mention all the dumb shenanigans Quest Shaman can pull.

I'll keep my extra copies

well, that makes him significantly less good

not sure if I understand the wording.

Is it going to be like Tess Greymane, where spells target randomly and minions are just summoned?

Or does it actively replay every card, battlecries and buffs included?

we're all Quest Druid now

Also, fuck the wording. This doesn't state whether the target is random or not.

Probably gonna see this in every midrange deck (and some Aggro) from now on.

Also completely busted in Arena.

Gonna keep my extra copies, this one's gonna get nerfed.

This might be the final piece Control Warlock needed.

Sure, it's much worse than Defile, but it helps keeping control of the board early while not being punished for tapping. Sometimes this might just be good enough as 4-5 damage to kill some snowballing threat (like a Murloc Tidecaller + smaller murlocs)

I also think this encourages running …

I really hate how this basically shuts down any form of a Tempo based dragon deck.

All the explorer dragons (except Primordial) are effectively useless (or at least unpllayable on curve)

Any dragon with less than 9 health will get removed immediately, and god forbid if your opponent actually has the means to remove them otherwise, because then …

I see why this is necessary but I still hate it.

It's pretty strong actually, but it's heavily matchup dependant.

You can really screw some deck's curve by setting their Hero power to 3-mana. Sometimes they might not be able to use it the following turn so it sticks around and might force them into suboptimal plays.

Works best against Quest Shaman and Warlock, but other than that it's …

honestly, if the packs themselves weren't pointless (at least include Dragons, come on) and the skin wasn't completely abhorrent to the point where I would be ashamed to hae it in my collection I would get the bundle for the card back. Guess I'll have to make due with the Darnassus one.

i know, that's the point.

They have 9 perfectly functional skins with special quotes, voicelines and everything that they probably spend a considerable amount of time designing and there are people who were actually interested in them.

They could have released them as discounted skins (like 5$ per thing or a big bundle for like 30$?) and yet …
