It has +1+1 but 6 mana 5/5 is not well stated. Priest has Northshire thats bassically all the draw there is and draw is also not verry relevant with this card since it only buffs deck.
Also when you compare this with mistcaller this has the condition that all your deck minions have to have 2 health more than attack to be at least even with Mistcaller.
Classic how denial is already setting in - 'oh, it's not really that strong, it won't see play' Sure. People said the same thing about Mysterious Challenger. Already abandoning hunter for priest at this point.

Tha fact that this doesn’t synnergise with the earlier revealed Glitter Moth is a good thing. Right now it looks like a good card but if this was an odd-cost card it would’ve been completly busted...
Glitter Moth and this cant really synergize cuz Lady in white will biff ur deck, the moth will do it with ur board.
Maybe i should rephrase my comment from earlier. What i meant was that it’s a good thing this doens’t synnergise with the moth even if it were an odd-cost card. Sorry for the confusion.
Very unique effect, I'm sure this card will be experimented with a lot after the set is released. But I really doubt a deck with a ton of vanilla high-health minions would be playable even with this card. You have to draw and play it first, which you won't be able to do in half of your games without a tutor, leading to a ton of crappy turtles and mogus in your hand no one played even before Naxx. I though the most overrated card award would go to Rebuke, but it has just received a strong competitor here.
The card will be playable only if the deck can win without it (in which case the effect will probably give your minions 2-3 attack at most) or if a tutor for it is released (such as 'draw a 6-cost card from your deck').
People going crazy over this card ... and dont get me wrong it would be played.... but its not as insane as you thing ... its very draw dependent, doesnt affect hand, does not technically combo with any other piece of the combo priest and it has the worst synergy with one of the most played cards in combo priest - twilight drake ... so yeah ... its not a bad card ... its not as insane as some seem to suggest.
Your statement is wrong on so many levels, ( im not here to fight or smth )
- This card will be in Tempo priest not Combo or OTK
- Twilight Drake is good but not the card that force u to remove this legendary, there are a lot of good and playable cards that may be good with this, ( Statue - Tortollan shellraiser - Northshire Cleric - Ysera - Primordial Drake - etc ) These cards are good on their own without buffing them,
- Raza was draw dependent and completely broke the meta.

You dont need unplayable basic high health minions actually, priest is knows for his high health minions, and u can find alot of playable cards that have high health.
This getting revealed on the heels of the Warrior turret legendary is bringing back Purify memories. Hopefully the warrior legendary cards will see play over the next two years, but for the current meta, Warlock and Priest getting good (or at least interesting) legendaries and Warrior getting Darius Crowley seems....distasteful.
This willl be new Keleseth or new Mistcaller,no middle ground here
The effect is broken with massive buff but problem is turn 6 is more fair than Keleseth (or Barnes) and it require your deck have minion with health higher attack while most of them look pretty bad (as standalone card)

NP.
if the moth found a card to combo with, it will be annoying and kinda op,
moth has the most dangerous word in the game, ( Double )
Seems pretty busted at first glance, but if i think about it, its probably not all that great.
Building a deck around it with lots of cheap high health minions is going to be pretty inconsistent and slamming this card in already existing priest archetypes won't be that great either since it has some negative synergy with other strong cards priests use and it doesn't actually add to much to those decks. I can't think of any existing priest deck that would benefit enough from this card to justify its inclusion.
It looks like the Priest version of The Mistcaller. Just like with that card, buffing your deck for 6 mana is a bit too expensive, and comes too late in the game to make a reliable impact. By comparison, half the strength of Prince Keleseth was that you could play him early.
In addition, Combo Priests seem to want to buff the health of their minions first before casting Inner Fire on them, so I'm not sure if this card fits that deck type.
Cool design, though, even if I am not hopeful for this card.

I wonder if oakheart will read the enhanced attack or regular card text.
This will be good in Control Priest. Might even find its way into a new version of Spiteful Priest.
I wonder what the other sister does, might combo with this...

Really powerful affect, but relying on drawing the card for it to be effective, kind of like Prince 2
Rank 4 Tempo Mage

Don't panic, it will just add 1 point for the attack in most of the cases
