get a big board
this
bloodlust when they can't clear you twice.
This card will be played in decks that run the new 5/5 Stormcaller
I dont think its worth it though, we'll see
Crap card, but if you need extra totem synergy it might help fill out deckslots.
can make it tough to clear your board and setup a nice bloodlust
So I guess this is the Windshear Stormcaller enabler. It didn't really seem probable to get all 4 totems to survive on your board long enough for that card, now it kind of seems viable. We know that evolve shaman can put the bodies on the board and evolve them, this is a bit more expensive though. Question: are they true random, so we can get multiples of the same? because if it works like the hero power you just need 3-4 minions. This probably isn't the case tho.
Isn't Spirit Echo just better in most cases?
Spirit Echo puts them into your hand. This summons the Totems on board, which can help set up a Bloodlust next turn.
Card isn't as bad as I first thought. Reminds me of Soul of the Forest and Savage Roar synergy. Your opponent has to clear you out twice after this just cause bloodlust. As long as I have bodies to enable that game-ending Bloodlust or Roar, I don't really mind if they're 2/2's or totems.
may have some potential since shaman has a lot of board presence and it helps that 5/5 epic
This should've cost 2. Just sooooo bad at 3 mana.
Gummy Totems. Now at your local Catacombs.
I really gotta have 'em.
Frozen Cone + Totem Gummies = Shaman Sundae.
If you're this far ahead where this is worth putting on your minions, you probably rather spend 3 mana on something to finish the game out.
Cards that are only good if you are ahead generally are bad.
For 3 mana this is hardly worth it, basic totems barely do anything by themselves.
Pretty lame spell. Only good for wild totem shaman, even then it'll probably be dropped. We'll have to see though.
This is the only good totem card revealed, but completely because of Bloodlust.
Maybe I'm missing something but I think this card can be pretty good. Not for the other two new cards, but just for a token shaman. The biggest weakness with that deck is that if you get one or two board clears they're out. With this, even with 5 minons on board if you cast this, then a bloodlust turn is still super devastating, and people won't think about the totems since they usually have no attack
I agree, this is probably undervalued in a lot of people's minds, as it's costed at 3 like spirit echo, most people probably compare it with that...and this is just great if you have a board the opponent needs to clear and he's at ~15 Health - but can't clear the totems after that...
Minions with totem interactions might see play, but this spell is just sadly bad. Gold animation might be cool.
Requesting card clarification on the "random" part, will it work like the hero power meaning you will not get a totem you already own. I'm assuming not since you can get 7 deathrattle so you'd forcefully had duplicates but does it really happen this way below 4 targets ? :/
