Requires so much of a dream scenario it should be named Ysera. Nice effect, but you're either dead or victorious waaaaaaaay before this thing is even close to being a doable good play. And saying this has N'zoth synergy is crazy, you play a turn 10 with 0 immediate board impact, have it die as a 12/12 without getting silenced, summon all dragons in your hand and then you STILL HAVEN'T WON OR LOST? Yeah, if that happens, then this has N'zoth synergy
How? Just play this on turn 10 and the opponent has to immediately act to get rid of a 12/12 but if they do they risk an even stronger board.
Very true. (Other than the silencing it; N'Zoth will actually summon it whether or not you silence it. Polymorph/Hex will stop it though).
But if the opponent isn't pushing lethal, they are in serious trouble when you drop this guy. As a midrange hunter player, I am terrified of turn 10 drops that I have to try and top deck into. If they properly controlled the board, I simply don't have the resources to deal with this. Or normal Deathwing. Or any of the Old Gods.
And hell, if someone hits the dream of emperor --> dragon consort --> turn 7 deathwing dragonlord, the opponent either has lethal or needs to concede.
My opinion for "dream" hands for a few classes. Feel free to improve on them!

Personally I am probably gonna stick to Dragon Priest since I feel they have the best synergy for dragons. Only dream scenario would probably be play Deathwing, Dragonlord and if he dies get at least 2 of 3 dragons being Deathwing, Ysera, and Chromaggus.
Oh, you don't. That's why these are dream hands. But even getting one free dragon out onto the board is still a decent deal. You're not going to get the 5 biggest dragons without battlecries.
People miss out a lot of small things with this card. Dragons have rly strong battlecrys when he puts whole your hand to the board you lose them all. Also if you wont draw a dragon next turn your "if you holding a dragon-"effects go away, if your opponent can fallow up with board clear you will probably lose. He is strong but dragon decks need more early game not late game all-in cards.
There ain't many board clears that can handle minions with this much health. So what if you lose the battle cry, it is a massive tempo swing.
Yeah, but I dare you to keep those two-card full board clears in your hand on the off chance that I'll A.) play Deathwing dragonlord and B.) Pull out more than one big dragon off of it.
This card will not be competitive. But it's awesome.
And as for the loss of the battlecries, if you summon multiple dragons after your opponent burned who knows what to kill this thing, you probably just won the game. You lost some value, but you gained a HUGE tempo swing.
The main problem is that this card is slow and clunky.
It is just a bit frustrating to me that this completely gnarly out-of-this world dragon badass can be quickly turned into a tiny frog for 3 mana
Amazing art, truly a magnificent vile creature this is
This expansion is full of t10 huge legends.
Despite of the size and effect of the card, it kinda looks like King Varian. Good, but very niche-specific and I think it won't see play very often
If I play Deathwing,Dragonlord, and played the classic Deathwing on the next turn with a hand full of dragons, will the classic deathwing discard my hand full of dragons or will Deathwing,Dragonlord play my hand full of dragons?
Yes !!!! A Deathwing that is playable!!
Ish? Don't get too excited. Unless you take advantage of the deathrattle, there are better things to play. And Deathwing at least cleared the opponent's board. This one can be polymorphed or hexed and you get literally nothing from him.
I play control Dragon Paladin more than any other deck I know very well that cards can be polymorphed, stolen or hexed it happens all the time to Tirion Fordring yet he still remains a good control or midrange card. And the old Deathwing not only clears the board but he also destroys your hand so if he gets polymorphed, hexed or stolen you are screwed unlike this one, where there's still a chance of responding.
Do you need to see a doctor? I'm worried about you; you're not making sense.
