tl;dr: Choose one = Druid

A weak minion that might not be good even if he triggers? How come this is rated so high?

But … you know … that’s the very nature of card games. Different types of decks, and some of them are better than others.

Due to Hearthstone’s concept of low interaction, it is very easy for combo decks to reign supreme, especially if there are no cards like Dirty Rat around.

But even if there is interaction (I’m looking at MtG here), there are times when the best deck is an aggro deck or a control deck or a combo deck.

Anyhow, I’ll repeat my statement: Wait for the metagame to develop before ‘doomsaying’ the end of the world and enjoy the reveals!

That’s true. 😀

Would be so funny if the Murloc is a minion that has Deathrattle: Summon a 3/2 Dragon.

Like … the Murloc gets eaten by a Dragon …

Ah well, nevermind.

And it offers Beast (read: Hunter) synergy. Revenge of the Wild comes to mind.

My thoughts. The number of 3/2s already is high, and we haven’t even seen that much of the new expansion.

Cool card, and you’re right about the art. It’s great. Looking forward to the golden version!

Just as any other Beast, Murloc or Dragon!?

Not trying to be offensive, but if you are triggered that easily, maybe HS isn’t the best game to play for you!?

If this card will be overpowered, Blizzard will nerf it – they have shown us recently that they are reacting more promptly nowadays.

I’d say just wait how the new expansion (and metagame) pans out before declaring to quit HS?

Aren’t the chances pretty high that you’ll draw one of the mentioned cards by turn 8? Even if not, you’d have to draw this single legendary.

idk, I’m not overly frightened when I look at this card. Its okay, maybe powerful but not meta defining.

A handbuff card that’s rated 3.9/5? What’s happening?

I don’t think it’s good.

But then you’d have to ask yourself if Blizzard is willing to allow 2 Fandrals (kind of) in such a deck.

Ah well. At least there’s Skulking Geist. 😉

Regardless of that, I really like the card. Cheap legendaries (mana cost-wise) are cool; the ‘Choose one’ keyword is cool and defines Druid as a class. So, thumbs up!

I think you take that discussion a little too serious. 😉

Talking about Standard we lose Odd – and the best removal in Blade Flurry.

Anyhow. We’ll see what will happen. Doesn’t change my mind about the card’s design, though.

Nevermind. Pretty sure the shuffle part of the idol will be just that … a shuffle of 3 useless cards. So … Jade Druid probably won’t want to use him.

Yeah, the variant already using Fandral will use this, too. On the other hand, weakens the Oaken Summons version.

That was my question when I first saw Improve Morale … 😉 Blizzard logic, I suppose.

I don’t think that you’ll put 2 Clockwork Goblins and Mr. Boom in an otherwise controlish Warrior deck. But I might be wrong (like most of the time 😉 ).

Dude … it’s the LATEGAME dream. 😉 Turn 7 = way too early.

When you put a golden copy of such a card in your deck, your Hero portrait won’t be golden but your Hero power is.

The ‘this will never happen lategame dream’ …

Bran Bronzebeard + Lackey + Heistbaron Togwaggle

The deck is Battlecry Rogue, of course. 😀
