    Yup I’m going to have a wild murloc shammy deck empty board finish quest drop this drop megafin fill board with more murlocs in 1 turn. This also works well with the echo murloc to refill field with just to cards.1 of these and 6 2/2 murlocs.

    If Murloc Shaman is a thing, this will be a cornerstone of it. 5/5

    I have been playing murloc decks since whispers of the old gods when paladin got the inquistor. It was super cute and charming and the deck was very very bad. Decks like anyfin can happen were much more effective.
    After that i got a golden quest in US and i was like shure why not. It climbed me to about rank 5 and than when baka paladin came to existance i was sooo angry that i dusted it for something else. An aggro deck that can’t outaggro upgraded paladin hero power that started its play at turn 2 felt extremely bad. And by that point i had all murloc cards. from every class.
    So murloc decks give you a bad taste. ALthough i have to aggre that at some ranks there are people who do not know how to play againt murlocs and give you free wins. At higher ranks you will get wrecked. The whole archetype got completely screwed with the change of warleader. All murloc minion were designed to have 1 hp. And your support cards were suposed to make them scary and healthy. And with the loss of that 1 hp aura the murloc from a meme deck became a very bad meme deck.
    Don’t get me wron quest shaman had great uses. I even was able to occasionally farm Giant deck when the naga was the plague of the wild format. But the deck has big downsides and if your oponent happens to get the boardclear in the right moment you insta lose. So while we all like murloc decks. My advice to you is to avoid them as they are very expensive and not worth the effort. And value wise they are outdated by a lot.
    About the card 4 mana 4/4 is almost as good as the yeti. It can make amalgams cost 1 mana although you would probably play amalgam on turn 3. So value wise you are not getting much. Most murloc minions are 1 mana. And murloc support cards are usually not murlocs and cost a ton more. This is not like aviana where you dish out some c’thuns and its gg. Even aviana heavy boards can be cleared. And you are talking about some murloc tokens.
    I have to admit that this expansion there is quite much more murloc generating token cards. And while icefishing is gone tastyfin does get the job done. The biggest value card for murlocs in shaman decks is the bloodlust though. And no matter how much murlo ctokens you get the best play will be electra bloodlust.
    Megasaurs were used as alternative to BL, so its plane old smack them in the face. Its very bad that the hag that gives you 2 amalgams can’t benefit from this.
    I may want this although my quest shaman wll work the same even without it. It is not effect that can end you the game. It is not one of the best murloc cards. Even though the best murloc cards failed to bring murlocs to competitive levels. And Pirates, Silverhands, elementals and dragons they all have tier one decks. Murlocs not that much.

    Not bad but you’ll need more card draw. Chances are that you will want to dump your hand with this card and hope to win. That’s just the problem with Murloc decks and most aggro decks is they just run out of steam and I think this meta will be more control oriented so I don’t think this card will be able to make it off the ground. Wild might like this though.lol

      That historical problem is now solved by hagatha and the Minion that draws 2 murlocs

        playing hagatha with murlocs feels bad. You kill your own minions for it to activate and thus you lose board prescence. The good thing of murlocs is that if you manage to stick about 2 minions you can burst big numbers and hagatha denyes you the board in every case.

          Obviously you won’t play hagatha if you have a board…

            well obviously you do not want a dead card in aggro matchups in your hand. Bloodlust is a OTk kinf of effect for your deck and you lose tons of value just for holding it. And if you are winning the board you don’t need hagatha, all you need is some minion buff. Hagatha turns your OK-ish kind of deck into a bad midrange deck.

        What about ice fishing? Resource gen is still hard.

    Sadly Quest Murloc Shaman is out, becuase this would have been an amazing Card to be used for play, but we do have the Spooky Murlocs from Witchwood, So I guess that can work. So once you do play Scargil, you can then spam Ghost Light ANgler for a Potential and Insane Value, of 10 Mana 16/16 In terms of stats!

    Woooooaaah, Dude…!

    No, but in all seriousness, this card is sweet. Sadly I only see it as more of a Last Resort Card, but Hey who knows, maybe Shaman will randomly put in Scargil, and Ghost Light Anglers in their decks. Even if they are Control, or Midrange.

    This + 2 Warleaders +2 Charge Murlocs +The Legendary Murloc Charge Dude + Reencarnate with help of Thaurissan is a 10 mana combo or less, you saw it here meme streamers

      if you are using thaurissan you can go without this :D. And anyfin can happen murloc is in paladin. We have seen this OTK many many times. And paladins have it much more consistently.
