I voted meta-defying! Pure speculation.. we will see more deathrattle then we can handle. I imagine this card would be used in any deathrattle deck and could make devastating combos.. if used right.

We'll have to see the deathrattle's available. But unless they are on Sylvanas level I doubt it myself.
My prediction? In addition to a deathrattle heavy theme for the expansion (thus causing you perhaps to WANT to kill your board). There will be a Portal like effect or a spell which causes all minions killed on the turn to reanimate as X or just straight up Kel'Thuzad copy to reinsert the ability into the standard play.

Eh, like I said one of the few deathrattles you actually want to die was sylvanas. Unless they are on that power level or if there are some text switching cards I am not really feeling all that good about this card. One of the strengths of deathrattle cards is that they were hard to remove. If you do half the work for your opponent then you loose a lot value. Deathrattle is after all value ability.
Of course you have things like Devilsaur Egg but that isn't a combo worth mentioning in my opinion. They could just pop the egg then kill this guy. Unless they played nothing on board and can't trade into your egg I wouldn't even chance it.
Lastly, it's not that "easy" to pop his effect. He is a 5/6 on turn four. meaning there are few things he can trade into that will out right kill him, giving your opponent the chance to choose to pop him when they want.
I can see him being played maybe in a low low minion deck of some type where he can be used to push face or to get a few on board trades as his body will likely eat two cards at his mana cost. Either removal plus a minion or a a few minions. Though most deck types that exist like this are generally pretty gimmicky so you have to ask, would he be enough to push those decks and is he worth the spot over something else. Like burn in a maly deck or removal in control. I'll try him out, cause I try everything out. But I don't think he is that good.

this card isn't that bad. sure it has a huge downsize but on something like a handlock or an old school control warrior that doesnt play a lot of minons this seems legit. u drop it on turn 4 and in midrange matchups it can eat a 3 or 4 drop and then help trade into a 5 or 6 drop.

priest board clears are like having fun in hearthstone. you think u had enough, and then u get more.
This looks like a very strange tech card. Yeah, the downside is obvious and the body isnt't that tempting either, but what if you play this in a deck that doesn't play many minions or runs only eggs. Well, probably, they'll go after your eggs and the deathrattle will kill whatever hatches from them, but there is a cool dynamic to such a set up - let's say they've got the 0/3 egg on board, you have some zoo, now they play Ticking Timebomb - it's tunr 4, what do you do? Kill the egg and let'em hit you in the face for 10 next turn, let'em develop more eggs onto the board, or sack your board into the 5/6 and face a 5/5 next turn? What's even more interesting, what if you get this minion to trigger on your oponent's side of the board?
Hm I dont know about you but I def have a good use for that card you all know Paladin class chalenge for Lich King one of your minions die and they respawn on his side def gonna abuse that and use ticking abomination and ofc Necroknight vs him for the lols when he pops his own boar.
Preety sure he is going to have something to say about you playing Sylvanas and Kel Thuzad like why are you on his side. Lets just hope he doesnt swap to his side insta after play knowing how good buddys were Kel and Arthias. Oh lets not forget Tirion and the whole argent crusade for repeating history so prep your divinines and buffs doomsayers and otk cards cause its gonna be a bumpy ride.
It makes Purify more attractive and it's another great deathrattle for the Priest quest.
It doens't make purify more attractive. Purify already has far better targets in silence priest. It's also not a "great" deathrattle at all.
It does make Purify more attractive because there is now another viable target for Purify. And I never said it was a "better" target or the best target...it's just another target.
When I said, "another great deathrattle", I was referring to playing it while having the quest and then silencing it...not actually that dealing 5 damage to your own minions is "great".
Ticking Abomination is now playable in a way no one would have thought of. It now works in Ramp Druid with Meat Wagon and Validated Doomsayer, Doomsayer and Alarm-o-Bot. Ramp Druid is not known for flooding the board. It has about 3 minions on the board.

This card may fit on quest priest, a easy way to kill your Devilsaur Egg
Dr7 its back!

Now it's your turn to bleed!
Won't see any play in my decks..
After thinking about it...
Necroknight is better, because that only kills adjacent minions, but also kills high health minions.

Anyone trashing on this card is really clueless about the game, this card is crazy good
