Flavor-wise this card is an absolute grand slam. Curse a minion (or steal a bit of its soul) with the voodoo doll, then destroy the doll to destroy the minion. It just doesn't get much better than that. Even my wife, who gives zero shits about card design, immediately commented on how cool this card is when I showed it to her. Normally she just shrugs and says "neat" to try to be polite.
This into Carnivorous Cube into Mortal Coil seems like a pretty good combo for Cubelock.
The Cube copies are useless they don't get the battlecry.
You're misunderstanding. You Carnivorous Cube a Doomguard or Voidlord, then play Voodoo Doll, targeting the Cube, then Mortal Coil the Voodoo Doll, killing the Cube.
4 mana, kill a Cube and draw a card.
Oh lmfao..... or you just play Dark Pact
Right. That interaction is basically what I was suggesting. Could also make Mortal Coils more useful, but it seems a bit lackluster compared to Dark Pact.
im gonna be honest, I think this card is too strong. It will deter people from playing big boys like The Lich King or Ysera :/ They nerfed BGH for a reason
You make a fair point, but BHG's effect was immediate and his stat to mana ratio is better than a 3-mana 1/1. Not only that, but you have to spend MORE mana for the effect to trigger if you aren't running him into another minion the next turn.
I wouldn't worry!
this card might be staple in mage soon. It's very good
Community strikes again. thinking this conditional removal is good lol.
It can be. It all depends on the meta. If we get an aggro meta this is garbage card on the other hand if it's more control oriented meta this is must include in mage decks. Just think how good this card would be few months ago when Big Priest was dominant.
Conditional of what?
It's a 5 mana kill anything for mage. It even kills Untargetable minions (probably not stealth).
EDIT: Like, really. Vilespine Slayer is even more conditional than this and it's one of the only TWO really great cards rogue received in over an year.
Why would you play this over Polymorph?
This is Assassinate but it uses your hero power. I don't see how that's OP.
Well first Polymorph leaves a 1/1 minion, while this completly removes the minion. So this combo is 5 mana and that one is 6 mana.
Second more important this can be used on elusive minions and polymorph can't. So yeah this seems like a pretty good card compared to poly.
Poly kills deathrattles so it's way more better this will just find 1 or 2 decks to fit in
