So I guess that shaman didn't get any new cards in this expansion?
So no we have to play around pre-emptive removal too? Seriously? A mage can now lock turn 6/7/8/9/10 because you can't play tirion into an unknown secret. Greeeeeeat. So much fuuuuuun.
Secrets screw this game. There are very few cards that deal with them, and the only decent neutral one is now restricted to wild. And on top of that only 3 classes have secrets. It doesn't make any sense.
I fail to see how you think secrets are breaking the game, especially one that you play sound exactly like mirror entity- one of the easiest secrets to play around ever
Yeah I can't believe we have to think about our plays when our opponent has a secret.
Is it a pretty sheep? lol
I like this secret, the results could be EPIC! - Even thought it's a rare ;) ;) -
Oh, ok. So If you ever see a priest play Kabal Chemist and then a mage secret, I guess we all know what it is. Hope they add another at least.
They will always have 2 other options as other potions not secret, and they will never choose this~ so it is a almost non happening!
There's no way you play this at the same time as Mirror Entity unless you want to get double rekt when the opponent plays some garbage creature.
That wild Hobogoblin deck tho
As both secrets use the same wording it probably depends on play order if you get a sheep or the original minion.
Why would anyone play this secret over a Polymorph that only costs 1 more and targets what you want is beyond me.
If Mages really needed 4x polymorphs they'd just run Polymorph boar.
I don't even think any competitive Mages run regular polymorph atm.
Because this one negates powerful battlecries. (hopefully, I didn't confirm this possibility yet)
it says after, not when, so it doesn't negate battlecryes, but it does deny charge minions
Because it transform strong cards like Malygos, Grommash Hellscream, Emperor Thaurissan, Archmage Antonidas, Ragnaros, Lightlord or Ragnaros the Firelord before your opponent can profit from them.
It can also stop your opponent from using any spell power minion at the moment they needs it, or transform a stealthed minion before it's revealed.
Sure, you have to time it right, making it hard to get as much value as with Polymorph, but that's still things the regular poly can't do.
Have you heard about playing around secrets? No one is going to play their strongest minions once they see this secret coming, and even in the slightest chance that occurs, it isn't worth the other 19/20 times it's going to be wasted in some shitty minion.
