She loves mana crystals, she hates mana crystals. So fickle!

To quote Trump: Might be good enough to run 2 Innervate, 2 Wild Growth, and 2 Darnassus Aspirant to help druid ramp up more consistently.
Druid will love it: bonus mana with functions of board clearing and (almost) taunt - nice card to gain board presence
Temporary mana Boost!
Finally, a playable 2/3 minion that isn't OP.
Piloted Shredder
I was scratching my head for a second... then oh yeah Piloted Shredder spits him out and you still get the destroy mana deathrattle :)
GOOD. Will barely affect piloted shredders, but glad to see there's another universal awful outcome to punish the people that run that stupid OP card lol
rouge ganging it up can be crazy! you can on turn 4 play it Shadowstep play it Shadowstep play it Youthful Brewmaster
They don't. They need to run into druid, run Gang Up on Darnassus Aspirant, and pray to receive it on topdeck. I don't think it's that practical, tho, as if you gang up it - you allow 4-mana creature to be played, and it's most likely a GG.
i didn't actually ment it's a good play, i ment it will be fun
It may be just Better Wild Growth, but it also can be worse Wild Growth. That's weird option and i think it can't be run in ramp druid because this deck realy needs additional mana crystal. It may see play in Midrange/Fast Druid when i always consider cutting Wild Growth's. Fast druids needs to push damage from early game to 14 Health, additional body is great. It may be also silenced by Keeper of the Grove when you REALY need crystal and your 2/3 can be cleared, maybe when its 7 turn and you want to kill opponent next turn. But anyway i think that it would be better when it looks like that
Anyway this card is just awesome and i realy want to try it. Rate it 8/10.
I disagree. I think it will see play, or at least tried in ramp druid. Provides early board control meaning (especially if the meta slows slightly) can replace zombie chows for early game, and with their so many taunts in ramp druid it may be difficult to clear midgame. Plus at late game, it can help with drawing cards from your now useless wild growth on a turn earlier or so.
I didn't say that this card will not see play, this is great threat in 2 turn and i think ramp druids will play it for 4th and 3th Wild Growth. Just said it will replace Wild Growth in some druid deck that do not need ramp that much.
2 more Wild Growth and solid stats too!:O + Ironbeak Owl = OP :O
But i mean the cost:D Keeper of the Grove costs too much ^^
The class doesn't has low drops because it is about gaining mana, so you can play higher drops on earlier turns, making low-drops useless. However, this card will help you gain mana, so it's ok.
so ... is Piloted Shredder unplayable now
Nah, the chances of getting one of these are pretty low, and a 2/3 body is not that bad, but is still the worst outcome possible.
Piloted Shredder is going to stick around a little longer...
Turn 2 - Darnassus Aspirant
Turn 3 - Darnassus Aspirant and Wild Growth
