Would be great fun if they make a brawl that's nothing but Raven Idols.
Who's with me?
Knowing Blizzard, this is inevitable.
It'd be like an Arena match where you build your deck while you're playing it.
This is already being added I believe
The name of the Brawl should be "BOW DOWN!!!" though.
Maybe they could call it the "Pro-Choice" brawl?
Waiting for the Trolden video of Idol into into Unstable Portal into Deathwing...(said before I knew that you could only Discover your own class cards)if there is no rarity weighting then there is an ~11% chance of getting a specific Druid spell (that means there is also an ~11% chance of getting this spell as one of your options) since there are 27 Druid spells and you get 3 different chances to get the spell you want (for spells are limited to your class on the Discover mechanic)
"Discover: Spell cards will stay within their respective classes"
If I understand it well, this means you would only get Druid spells from using this card.
Still pretty decent chance to get the spell you want or one that could help. After all, in hearthstone .0016% seems to be a high chance nowadays
I don't really see any synergy this card has with any druid cards... This is just random for randomness sake
"Darn. I already used up both my swipes."
-looks at Raven Idol-
"RNGesus be with me."
I actually like this card, since discover gives you option to choose one out of free random cards you can look for the one that will help you in current situation. (good deck filler, like roots, gives you turn 1 card)
Also a good use, but I still like having turn one, because you see your hand and you can pick a card knowing what you are lacking in your opening hand. I think that both ways of use are great since you are getting a good value base on what your hand and board looks like. You can even choose card class specific base on opponent class.
I don't see this seeing play as you are essentially paying one mana and a card slot to have a random minion or spell, albeit it might surprise the opponent it simply does not justify the risk of getting a lackluster card.
Although you could make the case that Unstable Portal gives you a random minion and it still sees play, the reason why Unstable Portal is used is that you could potentially get a high cost minion on the board much earlier that its supposed to due to the discount given by Unstable Portal.
Overall, probably a lackluster but fun card.
This makes combo decks even stronger :O!
Tracking discards 2 cards from your deck. You have to be sure that you won´t need the other two for the whole match. It´s actually very bad to play it turn 1 just because it costs 1 mana.
Right...But it says "a spell", not "a druid spell". So this can presumably give you portal, which can give you spellslinger...which can give you this again.
Unstable Portal for Malfurion.
