For those who don't know: The Jadegolem is a minion. The first time you summon it, it is a 1/1 for (1). The second time, a 2/2 for (2). Each new golem is stronger than the last. When the golem is bigger than 11/11, it's mana cost stays at (10). So the more Jadegolems you summon a game, the stronger they get.
If enough Golems have been summoned, this card is quite interesting. It all depends if Jade Golem decks will be strong enough to be viable. Also, nice synergy with Kun, The Forgotten King

Remember playing Control Shaman with Reincarnate shenanigans? No? It was fun, here's a refresher!
This card is pretty legit if you have any other Jade Golem cards in your deck.
It's a 5/3 and a 2/2 when coming into play, and a 3/3 when the death rattle triggers, assuming you played one Jade Golem card pre-turn 6. That's 3 bodies and a total of 18 stat points, 6 of which are on the deathrattle which is important as it defends against AoE a little bit.
More so, the card interacts well with effects like Raptor that copy deathrattles, N'zoth which brings them back (And protects against Brawl or AoE better than most other choices), or even ways of bouncing and replaying this. It's also not bad with Barnes, since it functions as a Possessed Villager or Kindly Grandmother even.
This will probably at least see a strong amount of testing, even if it doesn't find a home due to lack of Jade Golem cards, but I feel like there's a lot of potential to this card which is nice since the artwork is great.
Obviously this card is pretty bad if you havent played a single Jade Golem. If you play 1 Jade Golem before you play this it's passable, 2 before playing, it's really good. 3 or more its ridiculous. Thats not even to say that this card makes all the other Golems you play AFTER it significantly better. The Jade cards we've seen so far, ie: Jade Lightning and Jade Blossom are pretty well costed so I expect this card to be a worthy option for Lotus classes if the rest of the cards are as good as the ones we've seen.
Even Jade Spirit might not be so bad. It gets pretty ridicuous in the later stages of the game after you've played enough Golems.
It's not even terrible as a stand alone card. 14 stats for 6 over 3 bodies isn't terrible. Not particularily good, but, not bad. Cairne is 18 stats for the same cost. So, if we assume you need 18 stats to be playable... You only need 1 prior Jade Golem to make this good. Not gonna be hard. You get more than one and this starts getting insane.

I didn't have a signature so Flux added one for me.
Blizz trolling hard
Wait, Aya revealed this early?? That means the card we vote for is White Eyes, so 2 legendaries for the Lotus?! PogChamp.

Jade Golem going to dominate the meta.
It looks like Jade Golem is the reveal for this week. So, we may not know what it is unless we vote... Well played, Blizzard, well played.
Edit: Never mind. I should have read the news post first.
This will make token druid unstoppable
f2p, playing for fun ^^
All we can say is that by the cards released, the design team thinks a jade golem is worth 1,5 mana.
whate jade golem looks like ?!!!!?
stats for cost are bad easy remove
So the Jade Golem grows whenever you summon it... interesting.
Hard to evaluate, but with enough Jade Golem cards I think this is good?

I like it. Token Rogue boys.
Make the Card: The biggest thread on the site!
My mandibles which are capable of pressing down and tearing, my talons which are known to intercept and hold.
In a Jade Golem focused deck, this can be just as strong as the other faction leaders.
If you summoned 3 Golems before playing Aya, she's a 5/3 that brings a 4/4 with her, and summons a 5/5 upon death. That's pretty darn good for 6 mana.

Cool efect, not so cool as kazakus, but I think it will be played in all Jadegolem decks if there will be someone.

Will definitely see play in whatever jade golem deck there is. Seems very competitive considering how crazy the card scales. I like.
The hard part is actually having enough jade golem spawns since the pool seems pretty limited.
(Assuming you play Jade cards on curve) 6 mana 5/3 Battlecry: Summon a 4/4 Deathrattle: Summon a 5/5
Holy crap. Soooooo good for Druid and Shaman. I could easily see Jade Druid being a thing, but I need to see the other support cards first.
