Whispers of the Deep
Card Text
Silence a friendly minion,
then deal damage equal to
its Attack randomly split
among all enemy minions.
Flavor Text
And in the darkest of depths, the sailor heard a command from inside his own mind… “You will also buff my original card to 9 Mana.”
Mistermath's Card Ratings for Voyage to the Sunken City:
6/10
The card is alright by itself, but two cards make/made it nuts: Selfish Shellfish and pre-nerf Switcheroo. With shellfish, this deals 7 damage while stopping your opponents from drawing cards off your 4 mana 7-7 - but more importantly, even after it is silenced, the Selfish Shellfish still will get proc'd by Xyrella, the Devout. With Switcheroo, you could switcheroo the shellfish with a card like Handmaiden, and then silence the shellfish to return it from a 3/2 back to a 7/7. With the switcheroo nerf, the whole silence package also gets a bit worse, but expect Whispers of the Deep to still be a must-run in combo silence priest.
At least this can be used with the new neutral Selfish Shellfish to get the 7/7 without the downside and deal 7 damage
Nice for experiments, prob works better as tech / discover tool for Control Priest over Silence Priest....
I'm gonna try this work in shadow aggro
cant go face and shadow aggro attack peaks at 3 on minions
Self silence deck still won't be a thing, but this could be decent if you just run a bunch of battlecries.
Great with Barnes.
Don't you usually use barnes to summon minions with taunt or a deathrattle?
Just summon a silenced big minion is not really going to cut it for a 2 card, 6 mana combo honestly.
There is another version of those kind of decks that runs big body minions like deathwings. They had other self silence tools for that. But this is better. Potential 3 4 and 12 12 body with a better Reno Jackson effect for same mana.
This could be really good.
