When I first saw Pyros I thought 'What garbage!'. Now I made a deck for the Mage Quest and Pyros is essential because it fills various roles. In the early game it can trade alright. In the mid and late game it can become one of your win conditions.
But every card is a priest card
Holy ... that is one messy taskbar
That is the reason I am scared to play it against Priest! If you can't play it and trade it off early you end up losing it to Potion of Madness, Shadow Madness, Crystalline Oracle, etc. Often I just keep it in my hand and let the rest of the deck carry the weight....... making my N'zoth almost a total waste.
Playing a N'Zoth Freeze-style Elemental Mage and having quite a bit of success. Pyros is such a good curve play.
I made what I think would be a fun Mage deck using this card for the new expansion. It's packed with memes and interesting synergies, so definitely gonna be terrible.

Well, synergy with Elements is the only thing it has going for it in the long haul. Even so, there are better candidates to put in your deck if you're actually gonna go for an Elemental deck(as an activator, it'll be at it's best when it's a 2/2 for 2, which is worse than the other new 2 drop elements).
Beyond that, it's just Deathrattle: Shuffle a 'on-cruve-vanilla-minion' into your hand. Which is bad more than 50% of the time when drawn(i.e need card draw, board clear, not a top deck 6/6 for 6 or even worse 10/10 for 10, I mean c'mon really? It's ok to be optimistic but lets be realistic).
Perhaps if the 10/10 version of it put it back in your hand as the 2/2 again. Then it would actually be a Phoenix and perhaps it would have been played.
It goes back into your hand, not your deck.
Thank you. I corrected it.
We certainly should appreciate this card more so than we did a month ago, being the first Legendary card revealed for the set.
Pyros has insane synergy with other Elemental cards which require you to play a minion in the preceding turn. The card comes back not once, but twice! Playing N'Zoth, the Corruptor will bring back the 2/2 and the 6/6 Pyros for some late game action!
I'm very excited to play Elemental Mage, and I feel Pyros will be a card to help push it to the of the early expansion meta.
So this is Basically a Pokemon. 10/10
Almost same tier as Anomalus
Nah, Pyros doesn't seem amazing, but it is hundreds of times better than Anomalus. It's really more Icehowl ,Onyxia and Mekgineer Thermaplugg and less The Boogeymonster, Gazlowe or Hemet Nesingwary
Or Rogue.
The Caverns Below
I am from future. Rogue is tier 1 class.
So what's the synergy with this card after all?
