Blizzard : hmm this card is gona be good.. people ressurect like Bloodfen Raptor and its not gona be a total op bs..
Priest players : use it on Obsidian Statue ... :D
Because big priest didn't have enough shit in wild.
If you ever thought for a second about playing ressurect priest, Plague of Murlocs alone kills your dreams.
I think that this card will help to create a new type of resurrect priest - perhaps slightly different in style / deck to the basic wild Big Priest one.
And it will be interesting to see how it works in Standard currently.
Exactly. I made a new type of resurrect priest with Bwonsamdi, Nozdormu... I can't wait to find a place for Psychopomp in it.

Try it and tell me what you think! ;)
i think people are underestimating this card, ya the body is weak but get/summon another death rattle minion with reborn is amazing, specially on a mechanical welp ;)
it will, if youre talking about the "summon 7 deathrattles" one. The 3 mana summon 2 1 1 deathrattles that died this game card triggered the quest, so this should too
mmm, tempo priest maybe. Don't really see it in big priest because they want better res pools.
I know I'll try it for the memes, but even reviving a 1 mana minion with this card is worth it because of the reborn.
Well flurk me! I foresee rivers of cries
The real question is will this card interact with the Priest Quest?
To anyone saying that this won't be played because it dilutes the resurrect pool: Not being 100% guaranteed to get a Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound with Reborn on turn 4 doesn't make this a bad card.
Think of it like this: 4 mana 1/3, summon a Scarlet Crusader with reborn.
Seems pretty good to me.
I like the cards art very egyptian theme to it, but 4 mana for such a weak body with a random effect that won't synergise well with other spells like mass ressurection.
Why not make it Battlecry: Summon 1 of the last 3 friendly minions to die this game. Give it Reborn.
At least then you can control the RNG to some extent.
Id say this is perfect for divine spirit combo priest, when grizzly moshog ... died
chances are high its gonna stick and you can run double silence in case he kills it and it comes back with 1 hp

Can't wait to see the high IQ Big Priest players add this to their decks, so I can laugh at them.
As if big priest in wild is not bad enough. In standard its hard to say but in wild its going to reign.
No one will play this in Wild Big priest. It fucks up your rezz-pool by itself, imagine Mass Ressurectionpulling three 3/1. It has anti-synergy with Barnes and Shadow Essence, the two core cards of Big Priest that enable the entire deck.
Onyx Bishop was never played in Big Priest, and this card is the same.
Onyx Bishop did not give Reborn to the minion. So it costs less and does more. Sure, you dilute your pool a little but if you play it correctly you will profit on average.
Reminds me of Onyx Bishop.. Not sure either will see play, since resurrect decks don't want to introduce 3/1 or in Onyx Bishop's case 3/4s to the respawn pool.
My first understanding was that Psychomp had reborn.. Did not read the card carefully enough.
