This suppose to be a shaman spell lol what rogue has to do with bones.
"Roll the Bones" is an (iconic?) ability for Outlaw Rogues in World of Warcraft. Bones is slang for dice. So this is kind of Pirate speak for "roll the dice" ... or gamble. Therefore, Rogues.
2 mana draw a card is almost playable (Shiv). Here with even 50% chance of drawing another card (doable in a DR deck), it's quite good.
Remember the math people: with 50% of DR minions in your deck, you'll draw on average 2 cards (50% chance of drawing exactly one card, 25% chance of drawing exactly 2 cards, 12.5% chance of drawing 3 cards, ...)
Idk, the Jade/NZoth Rogues Ive seen dont play many cards with deathrattle on their own and instead play a lot of things like Journey Below and Shadowcaster. That being said, Cult Master/Auctioneer are kind of bad draw enginss for the deck so maybe we will see some strong deathrattes to make this worth it
How do these kind of spells work with spell synergistic cards like Auctioneer, Arcane Giant or Yogg Saron. Are the spells actually cast multiple times by the player or does it only procc those cards once no matter what?
It's a pun. "Rolling the bones" is another way of saying "rolling the die", and bones=deathrattle. So you're gambling with bones to see if you get bones.

Very interesting. You only need to draw 1 deathrattle consistently for this card to be good.
Bonestorm?
Something witty.

Hmm, similar problems to Wrathion maybe. At least it's not one mana! XD

And 2 mana draw 2 cards is bonkers.

Is this a Neutral spell?! WOW! Pretty good in a lot of classes especially Midrange Hunter.

I doubt it would do this but any chance this card would draw again if you drew Journey Below?

The problem is that deathrattle rogue is not a real archetype. Jade Rogue has two deathrattle cards, flower rogue has one.

2 mana, draw a card. I don't know, good for thinning out the deck i suppose.
best Neutral ever revealed.

I like the card thematically and power-wise. Nice deathrattle rogue card, better in wild, but not useless in standard.
Just fill your deck with one drops, that is creative deck design, right?
