I love this card, pros hate the card because it's 2 drop that is not anti aggro and "works" only against heavy cicle decks, so right now against druids, and even when it works it's not a win condition, but the fact that you play around the 2 cards you discard gives it a bit of glimmerroot spin and against slow decks sometimes you land some hilarious highrolls. It's a bit of greedy card but I think that people saying that this card is terrible haven't actually used it in a control deck over multiple games.
Gimme a kith ;)
Apart from Kripp, a lot of streamers are not impressed with this card. I, however, think it's great. Aside from the beautiful and cute artwork, the stats are acceptable and the effect is sometimes nothing, sometimes OMG this Exodia Mage just lost his Antonidas. Or a Druid just lost his swipe and can't kill my board next turn.
Then the sourpusses point out that the card might as well have been at the bottom of the deck instead of destroyed, if you don't go into fatigue. Yeah, well, if an Exodia Mage has no access to Antonidas (or one of his Ice Blocks or Apprentices) chances are he'll lose the game anyway. Just having a chance to totally wreck combo decks and win the game, is far better than any other 2-drop Warlocks have access to right now. Well there is Dirty Rat, but that card actually can lose you the game. Gnomeferatu has no such risk involved.
from sheer exeperince i can tell you that this card is fairly ok and a decent 2 drop in kazkus demon warlock that i am currently playing.
Kripp is also an Arena player. This card simply isn't good enough to play in Constructed. It's FINE, but it isn't OP, and cards that are "just ok" are bad in constructed.
This card is bad.
This is the most valid point. People think of burning off cards as only useful if it got a legendary. I have had countless times where I burn the card that Wouldve really helped them that turn. Combo wrecking can be a great thing. This doesnt have to burn off a big guy to be useful.
makes greedy priests concede
one of the best card through entire game!
cheap, normal stats, beautiful art, amazing battlecry troll fun effect +100500!
every warlock should have it in their deck (especially zoo), used only 3 times but effect was so good - 2 legendary & 1 epic opponent's cards were so nicely floating away saying goodbay to their owner :D
this card gives you only positive emotions, from in the worst case scenario - "ok,good" (normal/rare), to "Hell yea! That's my girl!" (epic/legengary)
really liked Curse of Rafaam in past days for disturbing opponent's plans or extra damage if he was keeping the card, but this one brings more joy & effect
i think this card even can sometimes provide OTK for you: - play it - discard enemy's legendary - opponent do a rage quit - profit!
this card Flavor Text should be like this:
to lose something that you have and to not having something from the start are two different things
only got 1 from packs, and already strongly thinking of making another one
future's ultimate troll goal - two copies to discard two enemy's legendary cards
Good grief, I have now opened 616 Frozen Throne packs and not received a single copy of this card. I've opened every legendary (including The Lich King 13 times over). I've gotten 7 Snowfury Giants, 6 Spectral Pillagers, 8 Corpse takers, 7 Spectral Geists, 6 Obsidian Statues, and more than 10 copies of Nerubian Unraveler and Light's Sorrow. I have 11 more Golden epics than I have regular copies of this card.
I feel like the odds should all but guarantee that opening 500 packs should allow you to at least one of every card in a set. I had a similar issue getting Southsea Captain. I was around 500 Classic packs opened before I saw my first copy of that card.
Can't you hear Ben Brode laughing? How can you open copies of legendaries? Its not possible anymore :S
Craft it and stop crying
You can open duplicate legendaries once you have them all.
It's possible once he has one of each legendary on the set
First game Sylvanas and second game Tirion. Works well for me for now. Keep up the good work girl.
well someone gonna have fun with this card on Wild at least with Emperor Thaurissan double tick at the end of the turn, Bran and couple of bounce effects.

So, I am not sure if this is a thing in Hearthstone yet, but is there a 'remove from game' versus a 'graveyard' area in the game? If that is a thing then that would mean the card that is 'removed' can not be resummoned which would make this card that much more powerful. There is a huge difference in most other card games between cards in the graveyard versus removed from play. This will be important when a lot of decks are going to be built around DK's and wombo's once the meta settles down about a month after release not to mention future expansions where we might be able to target cards in the graveyard (such as eternal servitude (http://www.hearthpwn.com/cards/61835-eternal-servitude).
I believe if it is removed, it has the very same effect as if you draw an eleventh card. That is, it does not count as dead and can therefore not be resurrected or otherwise brought back into play or hand.
