The payoff for the totem deck aaaaaaand….it’s not amazing? Like, I get that people are excited and everything, but it really doesn’t strike me as that powerful. We still don’t have that much totem generation for this to come out earlier than turn 5, and at that point in the game it’s not that hard hitting of a payoff. I won’t say this is bad, but I wouldn’t even call it the key card which will make the deck work. The good thing about it is that it’s a totem itself, so it does benefit from totem interaction (not that there any of note, but still). I don’t have high hopes for the Totem Shaman archetype: some totems might be played in the evolve deck, which does feel much stronger overall, but the deck lacks reasons to actually play totems, and it can’t just rely on the new 5/4 legendary.
Yes. Even Shaman again… this and The Stonewright will have a party.
There has to be some way this breaks the game, as all giants do…
5/5
Finally THE CARD which strength the totem package up.
Play a bunch of totems, bloodlust opponents face and on cherry on top just summon a 0 mana Totemgiant, which you can also discover from amalgam.
5/5 Totem shaman will be very good, I swear.
