Better than 4 mana 7/7 (because you can smartly play around its downside). Best 5-drop in every mid-range deck.

how about 4 mana 20/20? The Darkness

Was dumb enough to play this in arena against a Shaman. OF COURSE he has picked Volcano and has it in his hand by the time I play it. Ruined my damn run.

Just learned the hard way that you should never play this card against a Shaman...

Turn 2:

- I play The Coin + Innervate -> Bittertide Hydra.

- Shaman freezes it with Frost Shock.

Turn 3:

- Shaman gets a Healing Totem from Totemic Call.

Turn 4:

- I buff my Hydra with Mark of the Wild (10/9) and attack his face.

- Shaman plays Lotus Illusionist.

Turn 5:

- Shaman uses Volcano.

- My hydra and his totem soak up enough damage that his Illusionist survives.

- Shaman attacks my face directly (27 + 3).

GG

Huge tempo gain if played on turn 4 or 5 (and game-winning alone if played on turn 1 or 2 by druid). Great addition to my face Hunter deck. Only gets actually rekt by volcano, but Hunters always get screwed by Shaman anyways.

Funny how people are saying this card is bad? Turns out its pretty strong.

I see a lot of comments like Volcano destroys this, but when it is played turn 1, by a druid you will never get to turn 5 to even play it. 4x8 is 32. GG, and that is if he doesn't Mark of Y'Shaarj it and kill you earlier than turn 4.

you have any idea how beyond unlikely that is?

Dropping this in the current meta is a good way to automatically take 12-15 damage when your opponent takes their next turn.

thanks blizzard, day after day making this game better, but not

Both of these made me laugh my ass off hahaha

Thought this guy was the 5-drop to slam in aggrodecks (druid, warrior, hunter). Haven't seen much of him on ladder, destpite these decks being fairly popular. Haven't seen him aside from one tournament either.

Is he even that good?

Not really. From what ive seen the enemy either removes this card or it just kills you. It can be good sometimes but against other Aggro and certain control decks its not great

Great in some matchups, terrible in others. It's typically a dead card against decks like Token Shaman/Druid, because they can just plow a bunch of 1-mana minions into it, kill it, and deal like half your health in the process.

A new staple for aggro decks which usually you dont care about your face health. 1 is very good for every deck, 2 could be a little bit too dangerous.
