Blizzard: Trying to force spells into a zoo deck.
Pure Cold and Simulacrum as well.
Very good on zoo type of Warlock decks. But might be expensive. Destroy your minion probably bad so many times.
Kinda bad if you are trying to come back from behind... You won't always have an egg or something like that on the board...
While most players see only synergy with eggs or call it a worse Deadly Shot, I think this card also has it's value as a tech card that counters for example Corruption, Corrupting Mist and Embrace Darkness.
Also Shamans and Mages will have a ton of freeze effects and when you know you will loose your minion anyway you can sacrifice it and still gain some value out of it.
For PvE content it can also be good when you have to get rid of an own minion (for example when the opponent AI summoned a bad minion on your side of the board).
So this is a recycle for that art from Scarvash'es heropower :v
Another card to play around in upcoming FT arena.
In the right deck (with lots of Deathrattles) I can see this being slightly better than Blastcrystal Potion. But by far not in most.
although you do get kill a deathrattle or an egg this way in egglock
Or you simply don't have these minions on board. It goes both ways.
oh sure, zoolocks or control warlocks are gonna have hard time having minions for this...
In havey deathrattle meta this card might be really good and guess what... KFT will be just like this. Damned Arthas of Frozen Throne, I wish for handlock to comeback so fckin much!
Deadly Shot do better and saw no play , and warlock already have good amount of removal , do you think this garbage will see play ?
Ravenous Pterrordax destroys your own minion for huge benefits. Did it see play? Very little, and what play it did see was shut down by Rogue and Mage. This card destroys a *random* enemy minion as well. In theory, destroying Devilsaur Eggs is incredible in Warlock, but even that's not good enough in the meta. Maybe it will be this time around, I don't pretend to know the future. :) We can hope!
Deadly Shot with a bonus requirement for the same mana cost? Why, Blizzard?
I guess to just fit with the theme of being a Warlock. Not to mention in a Zoolock or a deck with a lot of tokens like Possessed Villager, Devilsaur Egg, or Imp Gang Boss in wild, you can have a few small minions to use as fodder for this spell.
