Anyone else find it hilarious from a lore perspective that this guy can become an actual Old God? Like, your opponent puts down N'Zoth and he summons his stuff, then suddenly you play your own 'N'Zoth' and the opposing N'Zoth is like 'What the actual fuck?'.
how this even work? if its transform when he is on your hand, should'nt he lose his original effect?
Answered in a blue post, it doesn't. It keeps a glow around it to remind you it's still Shifter Zerus underneath.
Great.... a new mechanic transposed onto an existing mechanic's name. Good job keeping your terminology consistent Blizzard....
Why couldn't they use a different verb instead of transform? impersonate? mimic?
Also, how does this card behave when it's bounced back to your hand? (or deck) does it keep, or lose its magic glow?
What about Mind Vision? does it copy the magic glow, or not?
That is an incredibly petty complaint. I'm sure we'll get those clarifications eventually.
WHEN I SAY DARK PEDDLER, YOU SAY VALUE, DARK PEDDLER
Can anyone tell me if the random Minion cost is 1?
Highly doubt it. Most likely any cost.
From minion to god tier....the dream...on turn 2
By the way guys, you can get this from Dark Peddler.
*draw and immediately play Zerus*
TOO SOON! YOU HAVE SUMMONED ME TOO SOON, EXECUTUS!
I think this card is really good, I would not muligan to have this in my opening hand, but i think I would be happy to draw into it. Since you control when it is played, it is easy to control its variance.
Yeah lets keep a dead card in my hand until it finally shifts into a non arena minion. Nope this card is garbage, but fun garbage.
Really good tech card. In hand it provides options/variety where you would otherwise be stuck with playable/unplayable techs.
Given the need for its transform to coincide with the board state and mana available I think this will be impossible to manage but it self cycles - just through a ridiculous number of cards.
Gimmick/10
Fun card!
"I am Trolden incarnate!" Shifter Zerus
It will be hilarious!
Turn 6: Shifter Zerus changes into Mysterious Challenger. casts Mirror Entity, Counterspell, Effigy and Duplicate
Then the opponent's Shifter Zerus turns into Eater of Secrets.
I've never seen a card with such a difference in opinion as this one. Some people think this card is bad and an instant-DE, whereas there are also some people who think this card is great and will potentially change the game. I personally can't get an opinion of this card but reading how other people think and looking at the poll is certainly very interesting.
Love it, the only thing I,m not sure of is...after the first transform, does the original text keep precedence
How? You can control how expensive a minion you'll get from Forbidden Shaping
This new legendary could theoretically just swap between Wisp and Captain's Parrot all game
