Powerful effect, bit random though. really good if the enemy's board is empty to go SMOrc. Should be removed fast so could bait removal, but it's not a good card when you're behind against high health minions or a wide board. looks alright to me, but not broken

Better than GoT finale :P
-
Instant craft if you play mech Hunter. Also great if you play a highlander deck with mechs. It could work in an aggro smorc deck too. Even hunter in wild seems fun to play too. Great card!
-
Ooh this card could become a problem, 2 mana "Deal 7 damage" is REAL strong
-
If it hits a minion then it's a big swing,if not you are in a bad spot. I hate these kind of randomness.
-
wait we don't have a keyword for that ability? something... i don't know... maybe animate something like that
-
To think I needed your comment to make me realize its an inspire effect
I brought shame to my famiri
-
"Inspire"? It's a shame Blizz doesn't want to bring that keyword again, it was a fun mechanic.
*Edit: If it was sarcasm, I'm really bad at noticing lol
-
yes it was sarcasm, but don't worry bruh =D. thank you for the answer =)
-
This card is really busted the health makes it hard to kill, the effect can keep a clean board for a while (possibly is rng) and the minion itsself is very synergizable with other hunter cards (the mech keyword)
2 mana for a partial random fireball and guaranteed 2 damage face sounds like a good deal.
No way this card will be bad.
-
inspire hunter lol. unfortunately its not odd-costed, i would love to play the cancer odd hunter with this
-
this. is. THE MOST FUN CARD IN WILD. probably. Inspire hunter maybe? Seems fun though and hopefully i will get one to try it out! 3/5 for me!
-
seems like hunter is going to get a hero power theme im hoping it doesnt fail like mage on rasthakhan
-
eh, I hope I'm surprised but I don't expect much from this in standard, at least not until rotation in April. We still have about 115 or so cards to go, so maybe this has some merit
-
Considering the target is random, this is nowhere close to the ballista that shot down Rhaegal
-
yeah, it's all the other ones that couldn't hit Drogon
-
the keyword is random. Feels like a less consistent thunderhead
-
The key words are "random enemy." Not "random enemy minion." This is a turn 6 play most of the time; or it's a base for Zilliax. Very good card.
-
Quote From YourPrivateNightmare the keyword is random. Feels like a less consistent thunderhead
If we consider the play turn, ballista deals nearly the same damage output, 7 (vs 8), has a weaker body 5 (vs 8), but it comes in 2 turns earlier (3 in Even!), and can actually attack on its own (increasing total damage to 10 from 2nd turn onwards).
And it is a Mech.
This card is just as strong as Rag in the vast majority of cases. If not outright stronger.
