Am I mistaken or does Nesting Roc make this card obsolete?

Worked out well for me in Wild with Duplicate

2.04% Druid usage, 2.04% Priest...and 2.04% Paladins, who actually have secrets to activate this. Why is that?

I am far from being a pro player (or even just a good one), so I am asking simply out of curiosity. 

Also because Paladins' secrets are the cheapest so on turn 6 you could even play the two card simultaneously and trigger it immediately.

why this isn't a beast?

I honestly think they should make it a beast to make it a valid card

Why is it tagged as unreleased? I can't add it to my collection.

Basically a bigger Twilight Guardian. :) 

Works really well in a mage deck.

I'm assuming this is a living statue and that's why it's not a beast.

Slightly more control sec pally?
probably not...

why the fuck is the taunt always not fixed on cards like this? there is no reason other than making control decks worse :( blizzard is trying to push control and fuck simple things like this up :/

Maybe they are trying to avoid power creep on Fen Creeper

since when does blizzard care about powercreep? :/

I agree-- they should have either power creep'd Fen Creeper or made the conditional better. The risk of a 5 mana 3/6 vanilla is so bad.

its time to replace all the vanilla cards. they are just useless. even yeti, the old king of stats, is outclassed by pretty much every 4 mana class card. they have to stop with reprints, they are just bad for the game and "remove" card slots for cool cards. but its blizzard and they just care about money -_-

People are saying it's a power creep to Fen Creeper, which is not true. The taunt is conditional-- that means there will be times this is just a vanilla 3/6. To avoid this coming out as a 3/6 vanilla, you'll want to play hard to trigger secrets such as Ice Block or secrets people generally avoid triggering like Snake Trap. 

If it meets its condition, it's a 4/7 taunt for 5. The 7-health dies to Fireball and Hero Power, which makes it decent; but, it gets outclassed by Flamewreathed Faceless. The 4-attack helps you cleanly fend off minions like Totem Golem, Barnes, and Imp Gang Boss. 

Overall, I don't think this card will be competitive if Aggro Shaman remains Tier 1. Blizzard played it too safe. Playing secrets is already a tempo loss even when coupled with Kirin Tor Mage, which itself is not a tempo card when compared to Cloaked Huntress. The card should have been add +1/+2 and taunt if you have a secret in play. This would give players enough reward for lost tempo. I think the only thing this card did was successfully make Priest even worse with its 4-attack and 7-health. 

Taunt needs nerf!

Gotta be honest, those card sounds are kinda creepy.

Really looking forward to trying this in secret hunter.

It should be a beast, it's an owl!

It looks like a beast, but it's actually an arcane golem shaped like an owl.
