Any one else excited about Bane of Doom card buff? In the latest patch notes it says it can now summon ANY collectible demon! Mal'Ganis and other demon Legendaries can now be summoned earlier!
this is making me even more excited about the next new Demonlock!
They're discussing it here. I really like the change, I've already heared people getting Mal'Ganis from it and many other nice demons. Blizzard really wants people to play demonlock.
still has a higth chance of getting flame imp / bloodimp / mistress of pain / void walker .. i don't know if this is much more of a chance , it is still a coin flip card :)
This will definitely make demonlock more viable with possibilities of Mal'Ganis or probably even Lord Jaraxxus. It's still tricky though to get the right demon out of it. But with the BRM additions demonlock becomes a bit more available in theory.
2 damage is worst 1 mana so thedemon should be worth at least 4 mana for this card to be worth:
2 minions worth 1 mana
2 minions worth 2 mana (flame imp is worth 2 cause of the negative battle cry it costs 1)
3 minions worth 3 mana (succubus has 3 mana minion stats)
2 minions worth 4 mana (felguard and void caller)
2 minions worth 5 mana (pitlord went up cause of negative battlecry)
2 minion worth 6 mana
1 minion worth 9 mana
Doomguard and no effect jaraxxus are hard to estimate value I guess doomguard is worth 7 mana as discarding a card is worth 1 mana discount if you go by succubus.
9 of the demons are worth 4 or more mana while 7 are worth 3 or less mana this means this card summons a decent or better minon 56% of the time. you also need a target to finish off.
I can see this card being played in demonlock it's risky but well it might really worth if you get something good..
specially doomguard or malganis it's crazy.. doomguard is the best since it generates immediant value.
Crunching the numbers on this, valuing Jaraxus as a 8 cost card, Doomguard at 7, and Pitlord at 5, the average Demon value obtained from this spell is 3.82. The Value of 2 damage as posted above is 1 mana going by arcane shot and holysmite, so the total value is 4.82.
One other point to keep in mind is that Blizzard values the conservation of a card at roughly 0.5, this means cards which serve dual purposes such as hammer of wrath, are generally costed 0.5 higher for doing two things at once (card draw+ 3 points of damage, since card draw is 1.5 based on arcane intellect, and 3 damage has a value of 2, the extra 0.5 cost is saving a card).
Based on that, the card is worth 5.32 mana, and thus very much a quality value card for demonlock. It may or may not find a spot in contention with the warlocks other spells/removals. I'm leaning towards yes, because it puts a demon on the board which carries great synergy and a value of +.32 is really solid.

So glad I never disenchanted Bane of Doom, so many good demons now, if only I had Mal'Ganis. OH WAIT! Now I do!

Finally, I felt that card drawback was unfair.
Solid thread discussing what your odds are etc here
