This is just amazing... This counters so many hard matchups for Priest. Amazing as Counter Rush and Counter Handlock. This has to be the best anti-rush card in the game.

This is in most cases a board wipe akin to Twisting Nether -only actually viable since it's 6 mana and you can play around to not destroy your own minions.
I don't quite know how useful this card may be as most cards that are run tend to have higher HP than Attack, but on the other hand, this card destroys some decks like Handlock, as mentioned, and maybe Control Warrior. It also saps all hope from Aggro decks, but since this damages your own minions as well, it could end up as good as Poison Seeds is.
well, generally it's better to save Shrinkmeister for some combos with Shadow Madness/CSP. And Abusive Sergeant is currently not that useful in Priest decks.
Best card I've seen printed in this set for cetain, I'd say Priests are going to be owning the meta after Miralce Rogues get nerfed to garbage and Handlock loses Soulfire.
I dunno how good this will be, though the fact it is so nice in the terrible Handlock MU is a plus, but I sure do like the way it works, it feels pretty Priest-y, especially with their high health minions and stuff like Power Word: Shield to play around the effect. You can even damage your own minions with this and then go Northshire + Circle for potential crazy value...and also, it isn't a bad board wipe. Velen's Chosen for +1 to all? Probs not worth it. This seems more anti-Control than anything, but Priest could use that, and I do think it can see play.
In Arena, it isn't as great because there are less specialized decks to use this against and stuff like Yeti and Ogre surviving + the cost, but it's still an okay pick, though not as amazing.
And there we have an aoe that does not pop an egg, sweet
everyone's been QQ'ing about how hunter has been getting the best cards...but Priest is easily winning this battle. And for many reasons, (including the one above which is HUGE) light bombs has just sealed that deal
Talk about this card

Wait... Did Handlock suddenly become a good match-up for Priest?
Holy moly! The Light shall burn you indeed. :o

So priest basically has two forms of board clear now. Uther weeps.

Wait a minute, is this damage to all minions?

well, it damages all minions on board. But priest usually has minions with more health than attack, so it's not going to hurt him that much.
And you can plan ahead the wipe thanks to Power Word : Shield.
I really think that we will see one copy to begin with and will see how it goes from there.
With Gadgetzan getting hammered on the head, Miracle isn't much of a threat for Priest anymore anyway.
Yeahhhh take that, Handlock!
Edit: And stealthed Auctioneers!
Bad players whine.
Good players adapt.
Malygos priest deals +5 damage to each minion :D

So should've been named Holy Hand Grenade.

This + trade properly + circle of healing = what????
Less good than poison seeds and will not be played in my opinion.
This is less like Poison Seeds and more like Equality + Consecration.

Damn that Bolvar... What was Blizzards thinking? Hopefully there's a nerf coming soon.
