Combos that I can think of:
Infectious Sporeling + Betrayal (once you have transformed one of their minions into sporelings, you can transform two more)
Infectious Sporeling + Sweeping Strikes (you might want to give it rush first)
Fairly decent in wild against resurrect priest for classes without transform effects.
I don’t think Betrayal would activate this card’s transform effect, as all it does is deal attack damage, not “force” it to attack.
If you cast betrayal on a minion with poisonous, it will destroy the adjacent minions, so I’m assuming it will do the same for the sporeling.
Ah ok. Yeah I can see how that interaction will work.
Also killing it with a weapon or spell can work too.
Speculating this card might actually be sleeper OP. Once it’s on the board, the only way to stop its effect is by silencing it. Very strong for aggro decks as a pseudo-silence, but at the cost of wrecking your own board too (especially if you utilize big minions in mid game).
Also killing it with a weapon or spell can work too.
This card is so weird, I have no idea whether it’s good or trash.
This is like an auto include for zoo lock you mainly run a lot of cheaper minions anyway so doesn’t hurt you as much. Definitely a card that would force people to use a removal card on it
Imagine spending 1 mana for a Delayed Polymorph, but then you realize that the enemy can now do the same if you can’t respond to it. If your Mage, You better have Freeze, or just use Polymorph instead. For the Others, this is basically like using Gastropod, but for 1 Mana. 3 Stars.
Nice with flying carpet
If you have a consistent way to give a minion Rush, this is crazy strong.
