Conspiracy theory: this was printed solely because Tiny Toys + the new Evolve spell would be too broken if there was no chance for a low-roll.
I thinking this a same huge later turns card in arena, but 7 mana is a bit too much I think
Pack filler, taking a whole turn to play a big do nothing minion doesn't work in these power creep days.
Won't it keep the stats of buffed minions?
So murlocs, the new bro paladin they seem to be pushing, could make it big?
But also agree, needs something else to make it excellent.
why to keep this card ? the probability that it will better than 6/6 are quite slow
People say that a lot of stats on turn 7 is bad but you likely won't even get stats. Infuse is a keyword that incentivizes lots of small minions dying, so you are likely looking at a 7 mana 6/6 if you were holding this in your opening hand.
Just play Boulderfist Ogre - that's at least good stats for the cost.
Who tf is going to hold a 7 drop in their opening hand? Makes no sense
And who tf is going to play this card in a deck with 1/1s?
Realistically this is going to be a vanilla 9/10 or so. Still mediocre but a 6/6 is never gonna happen.
Look, the point of my argument that you seemed to have missed is that if you play infuse cards, you prioritise quantity over quality; that means more minions that are small rather than few minions that are big.
Of course that is unless you build your deck around this card to force it to be big. Which is of course is gonna be a terrible deck.
I'm getting this feeling where a lot of minions in this expansion really have bad stats from their cost, which can be a bad RNG pool from evolve shenanigans.
I mean, like getting a 2/2 stats from a 7 cost minion.
Can get big. That's about it. Unfortunately for it, the per-requisite to even be remotely viable in constructed requires at very least having either taunt or rush, or a reason to believe that by playing it the game is over. And this card dodges just about every requirement.
Perhaps there's a card that rez infused minions, so maybe there's where this card might shine. Or more likely its trash either way
At very least arena still exist, so there's that I guess.
This can obviously get really big. 7 mana 10/10 easily. But on turn 7+, just raw stats, with no ability like Rush or Taunt... probably not gonna be good enough.
If Broomstick was still around, this card would look a bit better, but that is about it. At least this card makes the evolve pool for evolve shaman a little weaker.
Without even Taunt, this is too slow
