Overall, I’ve played around enough with Deck of Choas, and as long as you can build a specific Control deck that works, Deck of Choas has the absolute potential to go ballistic with Mana Cheating Value. For Instance, if you have a 9 mand 4/12 Dragon, well now, it’s a 4 mand 9/12 instead.
If you can find a way to Dig and search for Deck of Choas, and then build around the deck that wants to be cheated out of proportion in terms of Mana, then Warlock and swerve out of control with Spike after Spike after Spikes of Powerful Minions.
A lot of Warlocks can build this, but not Zoo and Aggro obviously. Never underestimate Mana cheating Value.
5 Stars.
Well, you can dig just fine with Plot Twist :).
Could push control lock with Maly up but needs Maly to be in deck so probably not. Could do nutty stuff with giants but that seems unlikely. Could make a greedy control deck with Willow, Godfrey, voidlords and thats really boring.
I’m pretty sure this card is even nuttier as ot looks at first glance … Seems kinda Luna’s Pocket Galaxy to me. Wonder why it’s rated so ‘low’ …
Maybe in Cube, most minions there are very expensive and they do tend to have lower attack value than cost, but the deck already has lots of mana cheat, so I guess it all depends on how often you can draw it early enough.

Cool deign. The issue is that it will either be too slow or completely game breaking.
Reminds me of Luna’s Pocket Galaxy
design
Awesome 5/5 will get nerfed.
Cough 4 mana 9/12 Malygos cough
Sadly relying on drawing a card that makes your deck work is often wishful thinkful. Warlock is one of the classes that can make it more consistent but we’ll see how it goes… 3 stars, interesting.
For being called deck of chaos thats not a very random effect.
I KNOW RIGHT?!?
Step 1: Build a deck around this card with cool minions.
Step 2: Draw the cool minions before you get to play this.
Step 3: Cry.
Hehe, yeah feels like that will be most of the plays with this deck. And I don’t think it’s worth having a bunch of cheap minions turned expensive either unless it would be to trigger a specific combo, but since it can fail so easily it doesn’t seem worth it, I think.
Will make at least one fun joke deck though if I get this.
This card seems like a perfect fit for the current quest warlock ,just imagine having a 4 mana malygos or a 8 mana Queen Alex (you can play both dragons on turn 10 like we used to pre nerf) and all the other cards that are getting buffed, on the other hand the only downside is your zephrys going to 3 from 2 mana which isnt that much of problem since there is a good chance you might have already played him or have him in hand.
quest warlock is struggling in the current meta because of how fast other decks are. I thought lorekeeper would make quest warlock great last expansion but it wasn’t what the deck needed. Quest warlock doesn’t really lack value or mana cheat; it needs consistency (card draw) and sustain (healing?) .
So 50% 1 mana minions and 50% 7.10 mana minions with high attack. Only problem is that it switches attack to so even if let’s say a giant becomes free it might just be a 2/8 giant. However I guess it’s good to quickly pull out cards like ragnaros or other with a good battlecry, deathrattle or board effect.
Still though, can’t really make a deck around a single card that might start in the bottom of your deck either, so it feel like it’s mostly for fun.
I guess the discount will not affect, Their cost are 8, 12 or 20, so they’ll pass to cost 8 + the discount
Yeah, the giant’s will get the discount so if you like get a 1 mana 1/8 giant, it will quickly be reduced down to zero, but you will also have a worthless 1 mana minion that now coast 20 and can’t be discounted. (But it might look pretty as a 8/1 charge pig for 20 mana)
However with the shuffle cards back into your deck, I guess it could boost Mech Thun. Just have mechtun as a high card, and the rest as cheep minions, but you still need to be able to keep Thun in your deck while having this card in your hand, so it can be difficult.
Looks promising and very fun to build a deck around it, and I bet this card will be broken someday somehow with the right optimizations
Rabbit support
Not really… I mean sure you get a 1 mana AoE but the attack doesn’t matter because Rabbit has 1 Health and you’re already wasting 6 mana before you play it. Also if you draw Rabbit first you’re VERY screwed, unless you play Plot Twist but that’s just too complex for a shitty board clear
The argent commander becomes a better Leroy then
This card seems very powerful in zoo/galakrond bc of cards like devoted maniac, abyssal summoner and dragonblight cultist.
three mana Jaraxxus, and two mana Abyssal Summoner sound good to me.
This card works with well with a lot of cards. Like: archwitch willow, voidlord, lord godfrey, zzeraku the warped, the ever so unstoppable hir’eek the bat, azalina soulthief, corridor creeper, kael’thas, sylas, batterhead, malygos, darkmoon rabbit, mosh’og enforcer and many many more cards. But it’s quiet expensive and will probably not see play in standard, but as a wild player, I’m definetly going to try some wild stuff with this card.
