Could work in a plottwist deck and as a combo breaker. Really interessting card.
You want to use this in a Big deck, but then why not just cheat out/play the Big minion you want to cheat out/play in the first place? Might have combo potential down the line but looks eh right now.
BTW I solved Malygos OTK.
Reduce this to 1 cost with legend, play this 1 cost minion, play spirit of the shark, backstab this 1/1 to pull Malygos that’s 5 Mana then eviscerate opponents face twice for 36 dmg.
How could this work??? Spirit of the shark doesn’t work with deathrattles nor with spells…. Could work though with necrum vial and necrum blade but you would need to have no other minions on hand…..
Exactly that’s why said it because doesn’t work even if wish it did.
No the real trick to this is actually different.
What you need is this at 1 cost play it with Malygos as the target and back stab this minion. Then play Myra’s Unstable Element and Shadow of death targeting Malygos. That would shuffle 3 Malygos into your deck that will be summoned start of your next turn all you need is 2 dmging spells and your done.
This seems like a rather good card for interfering with a few strategies mostly some meme decks but also blocks some value cards. Pulls pogo, pulls silence ajacent minions, can pull control minions out of warriors hand. Small list of uses works best later if can remove as well. I’d say rogue is most likely to play it be a way to cheat out something like spirit of shark if exhaust little cards.
Wow! Rogue can make this a 1 mana malygos in combination with the new legendary minion
Oh yeah. With the spirit it’s 2 of them for 5. Rogue OTK is confirmed
Oh! Evicerate triggers twice then too!
Omfg. My thoughts really messed up on this.
But theres another way:
1. Make this cost 1 with new legendary minion
2. Play this, then the 5 mana spell that triggers deathrattle twice. 2 maly for 6 mana. 2x Sinister strike+eviscerate
You still didn’t read the card text correctly. It doesn’t summon a copy of the minions. So, you can’t pull 2x Malygos from your hand unless you have 2 Malygoose in your hand.
There’s so much wrong with this comment chain…
Spirit of the Shark works only with minions, so you can’t double your Eviscerate with it.
And you can’t pull 2 copies of Malygos with it, because it doesn’t COPY anything – it just pulls a minion from your hand.
And Spirit of the Shark doesn’t work with Deathrattles in the first place… Spirit of the Shark does literally nothing for that combo.
It’s an interesting Card. Pointing more so for Big and some niche Control-style cards for sure. Think of this card more like Coffin Crasher and Witchwood Piper, but as a Neutral Minion instead. 4 Stars.
Would be alright as a Battlecry, but sucks as a deathrattle
But 1) you can tech your deck for it (high minions) and 2) if you play this and your opponent kills Blatant Decoy, his minion would have summoning sickness while your minion can attack next turn (if it lives ofc). This card might be a sleeper and do really well in the right deck.
