bro this is so cringe, blizzard you suck
Broken and dumb card but no-one cares because it paladin...
How to win arena.
that is one shitty art, look at his stretched arm.
Thinking if you played it on a charge minion you still wouldn't be able to attack hero that turn?
It's a huge buff, but requires board presence, the very thing Paladin can't establish right now.
another ok/meh card for paladin
So 1 mana more Blessing of Kings but with +4/+4 more in terms of stats. That seems like a pretty good deal to me.
The limitation is only for 1 turn, so not a huge deal. You'll likely want to attack a minion anyways.
Echoing Ooze
Holy mack...Holy ooze!
It is also good against single target removal or silence.
Replicat-o-tron
It may be slow, but 2x 11/11 on a board with future potential...
Wait, Wait. Can you put this on a minion that just attacked the enemy hero? Thus circumventing the downside?
How would that circumvent the downside? Are you saying you'd rather have 2-4 face damage than 10-12 damage to an enemy minion?
You do understand that the point of this card is to have some good value trades with that minion and establish a board control?
Made to be used in a deck with High Abbess Alura
Immortal Prelate and whole The Last Kaleidosaur deck will be awesome
Just slap it on to a minion you've just summoned, and there's no real downside.
Lynessa Sunsorrow sees absolutely no downside, that's for sure.
At first I was like eh, then I was like hmmm
Likewise, I see potential. At the same time, if Priest and DH become popular, this can't see play. Next to that, Hunter has a lot of hard removal now.
