5/5 +2 permanent spell damage is very good. 5 stars
The real question here is: can it “stack”? If the effect gets put onto another minion with spell damage, will it transfer that spell damage (along with the spell damage from the Aegwynn) to the next minion for e.g. spell damage +3?
I think this card is good, especially in a deck that can draw 2-3 cards every turn.
But honestly this card just needs to be played to see if it is worth it, it’s really hard to tell.
Now, usually for a 5 Mana 5/5 with a Deathrattle that draws a minion isn’t anything to right home about. Think Big Ol’ Whelp, expect the draw is slower, and chances are that it could even be cancelled, had there be silence, however due to how good Burn Mage is doing, and how you can effectively gain a buff, I think this fits home for Aggro and Burn Mages, and maybe even some Tempo Mages here and there. And Since it’s Spell Damage +2, and it’s not picking favourites, that means that Burn Mage can really Pop Off.
From what was once a Deck that has some consideration at first glance, to those players that had practice with Burn Mage, It finally paid off with Aegwynn.
5 Stars for Tempo and Burn Mage. Will See Play.
It doesn’t actually draw a minion, just specifies that the next minion drawn has these properties.
I think it’s a bit slow for Tempo Mage, but it’s good in Burn Mage.
This looks strong! I guess some kind of graphic will hang around on the board to show this power is in play?
Fun 🙂
