Seems like a very good card in un'goro meta with all those murloc shamans and quest rogues around. Do not forget your Pint-Sized Potion
Welcome back to the meta!
Hey SW: Horror! I'm Pint-Size Potion from the next expansion. You've been waiting to be played for quite some time now. Well, know that the wait is almost over. Together, we're gonna burn everything.
Man, Pint-Size Potion is now out, and its flavour text does mention Shadow Word: Horror! Hahaha, well done Team5! :D
This card is horrific
Feels so good to use =)
Still, getting this in gold is better than getting it normal eh? I rarely get any golds at all. Currently on a 9 basic pack streak of 4 commons and a rare with no golds, and I looked it up, it's about a 61% chance to get a pack like that, so 0.61^9 = 0.011 which is a 1% chance but whatever I guess getting golden cards sucks
If it was changed to "Destroy all minions with 3 or less attack.", would it see a lot more play?
I rather have one Shadow Madness in my deck
With so many zoolocks etc. I actually run 2 of these. They're in a board clear priest deck. Comparable to 2x shadow word pain on average. Occasionally clears entire zoolock/shaman/paladin boards.
I want to like this card, but I think it's actively bad. Yes, kill my loot loaders and undercity hucksters. Please kill them and waste 4 mana and a card on them while I continue to out-tempo you.
underated? there are a lot of 2 atq minions on the new exp .
Awesome golden animation.
This card just got buffed since knife juggler is now 2/2 instead of 3/2. :) Still a rather weak card overall, only really shines vs aggro paladin and perhaps zoo
I thank you blizzard
everyone other than priests hate you
Shrinkmeister + this = 6 mana kill card . . . of the annoying 4 damage cards in the priest's blind spot.
In Wild.
Or you can use shadow word: pain and spend 2 mana less. Or use Kodo to get a 3/5 for 1 mana more. Or use Cabal Shadow Priest to get a 4/5 and steal it for 2 mana more.
I don't care about Paladins or Facehunters. I knew, Blizzard had to do something against the Lightbomb leak. And it looks like, this card is the "answer". Well, this makes me said. Cause lightbomb is more or less the only card a priester has for a comeback. This card is not a solution. It dosen't "replace" the lightbomb slot at all. Sure, we didn't see all cards yet. But I don't expect a second aoe clear for the priester. And then you have to deal with a good card (holy nova) and a crap card (an extremely bad hellfire).
We will see how it works as a package. But compared 1-1, lightbomb is so much more value then this one....
Are you talking about Excavated Evil at the end of your first paragraph? it's absolutely not an extremely bad hellfire. It's a different hellfire which doesn't hit face, gets you a ton of value in fatigue decks, and gets recycled into a legendary with Elise Starseeker.
Paladin: "Haha you're so screwed, I have a whole board of low drops with Divine Shield!"
Priest: "You did. And now you don't."
