So this is the second card in the set that summons Voidwalker. More Voidwalker synergy comming?
When I first saw Demonic Assault I was pretty skeptical: it appeared to me as an overcosted spell.
Then someone in the comments brought up the comparison with Flanking Strike, and now I see a world where this card could see play.
Pretty curious to see what Warlock deck will run this: Control to get a weaker but cheaper Spreading Plague? Zoo to get some form of reach after Soulfire rotated as well as board presence?
On a side note, the Fel school is there in order to prevent Tamsin Roame shenanigans, and you cannot convince me otherwise. Fel synergy incoming for Warlock? I would be down for it, since it's the most neglected School until this point.
Flanking strike, but for Warlock
The best part of the card is that is will get you two 1/3 taunts no matter what so you can freely play this at any moment to get a couple of taunts up.
Bit expensive? Perhaps. But being able to get some taunts out can easily mean everything. Too bad this isn't a shadow spell though, but I guess its scary enough on its own without having tamsin playing it twice.
Oh and it can hit face. That has to count for something at some point.
That's a solid card in my opinion. In GvG we had Imp-losion, this summons only two minions but they're 1/3 with taunt and also this card can target face. I guess it will be playable
I bet there will be some nice fel synergy in this expansion to make this card worth it.
Good value for the cost though
Remember when Feeding Time was in standard? At least this looks playable.
They did so much hype for something so simple
Remember when one of the "revelears" made a tournament and revealed one part of Ironwood Golem after every match? It was mostly control vs control btw.
Nah... I usually don't follow reveals closely actually, I just randomly was free during this specific stream...
First time getting a card reveal, important to milk the viewership for as long as possible =D
