What is this Blizz! You lied to me. You told us that we will get Shadow priest support and not even a single card is released that supports Shadow priest. You are just showing us copy Trash which we know can never be competitive, it's just for f2p. You have not released a Shadow priest card since ages and you think just 1 card in this set can bring it back?

This card is just Nourish version of Thoughtsteal. Thoughtsteal saw no play. So, this will see no play.

This card is only good in Arena

Nowhere did Blizzard ever mention anything about supporting Shadow Priests. Those are your own personal speculations, nothing more.

Though yeah, this card seems really bad for the same reasons you posted.

 

 I'm sorry but they did mention it in the livestream 4 days ago. They said shadow priest players would love the DK priest hero. Which implies that they are supporting shadow priest, at the very least with the DK hero card.

I really like the art on this card. :)

5 mana Nourish... but not draw your cards but another classes... dust it

This card is bad and will probably see no play, but it's not THAT bad compared to Thoughtsteal as some people say.

By playing Thoughtsteal you pay 3 mana and 1 card to get 2 cards (+1 card -3 mana).

By playing this you pay 5 mana and 1 card to get 3 cards (+2 cards -5 mana).

So Devour mind has better mana:card ratio (2.5:1) compared to Thoughtsteal (3:1).

We can also just set the mana cost of a card to be 1.5 mana, then Thoughtsteal cost 3+1.5 = 4.5, and devour mind cost 5+1.5 = 6.5.

6.5 mana for 3 cards -> 2.16 mana per card.

4.5 mana for 2 cards -> 2.25 mana per card.

So it's just a bigger slower version of Thoughtsteal

I'd rather see TAKE TWO cards from your opponent's deck -- now that there's prescedence for screwing your opponent's library in Gnomeferatu.

I mean.

Anduin is more like a pirate than a thief:
He copies other people's stuff.

Thoughtpiracy.
Mind Piracy.

And Hex is worse than forced discard, already:
Getting my Ysera discarded by a 3 cost card is worse than getting my Ysera hexed by a 3 cost card after paying 9 mana for her.

Voted playable.

Doubt anyone would use this card, but thoughtsteal does see play once in a while. Maybe in a highlander priest deck that for some reason can't find a better late game value card. Cabalist tome barely sees play, so there's that.
