Dragoncaster is going to be fun in a big spell mage. The breath is a good cheap spell for either the new legendary or mana cyclone shinanegans.
It looks like they are giving control/dragon tools to mage. It might not make the cut, but if this can be active often then this card is bonkers.
another mana cheating card for mage...yay...
Power be creeping
Tempo Dragon Mage?
Not bad at all, both should see play. That said, note that people seem to be tunnelling on the highroll potential of Dragoncaster when the reality will often fall short of that margin. To really have a major impact you need to have both a dragon in hand to activate it AND a spell worth casting for free - AND if you're not playing it on 6 then you need a value play to fit in for 1-4 mana as well. If all you're doing is dropping it as a 4/4 for a free Frostbolt and ping on 8, it gets a lot less pretty.
And let's remember that if you're running both dragons and high cost spells then your mage deck's going to be looking pretty heavy.
So if we're looking at a mage deck with a heavy top-end, we're looking at either Big Spell Mage or Highlander Mage, right now. The former is going to be heavily reliant on finding an early (and nerfed) Pocket Galaxy, and after the nerfs to Conjurer's Calling as well as LPG probably won't be all that strong. If we're looking at Highlander Mage, on the other hand, it's Inkmaster Solia but trading 1 less cost for the additional restriction of requiring a dragon in hand (which is inherently less likely in a Highlander deck).
And let's not forget - Inkmaster Solia only saw play in approx. half the Reno Mage decks that have floated to the top of the meta since their inception.
So yeah. Dragoncaster is a solid card, but I don't see it being busted. Arcane Breath, on the other hand, seems extremely potent and should see continuous play so long as mages care about dragons.
This whole expansion is a power creep to other expansions.
Both of the cards are amazing.
omg Dragoncaster is broken AF, nerf target n°1 confirmed.
I read it: 6-Mana Yogg , Deal 10 damage and summon a 4/4 , Cast Luna's pocket galaxy and summon a 4/4 , etc.
To be fair there are quite a few cards that could be nerf worthy in this set: I guess I won't dust anything before DoD will rotate to Wild lol
That card is nuts. Tempo decks with pyroblast.
Inkmaster Solia: „With all these new Reno Decks it's my time to shine! "
Blizzard:„Yeah,about that..."
Inkmaster Solia is crying in the corner
she's in good company with Princess Huhuran
And King Mosh
Power creep
Year of the raven was weak to lower the power level of the game.. Sure...
I mean considering this is a rare rather than a legendary, apparently holding a dragon is more difficult
