It happened to me and it only draws a card it does not add 1 to The Darkness's Candle counter.
Played against a hunter who attempted to mill me into the candles. I drew the last one on my last turn, where I had lethal and managed to kill him before he could even look at Darkness's stats.
I also had Darkness, but I dusted after trying him for like 3 games. The likelihood that your opponent draws the candles feels really low from your end, and (from experience) feels really high from the opponent's end. It also takes up a spot on your board. I'd rather play Blood Of The Ancient One (because I do). Two cards and you have a 30/30, instead of relying on your opponent to draw three cards, and for them to not stomp you while you try and stop them from killing you.
That being said, 5/5 best meme strat
Just opened up this crap. That's 3 legendaries in 70 packs. All three worthless crap, unplayable in any deck. Nice voting on meta defining. I'm thinking to stop playing Hearthstone, not worth it as a f2p with this very low legendary rate. This low to open 3 filler legendaries.
game ender in mill rouge :^) Kappa best legendary
tech against razakus
meta defining lul
hello darkness, my friend
This card is next to worthless.
I've played maybe 20 games with this on my quest Warrior.
Bottom line, by the time this card comes out the game is already won or lost. All it does it put you 4 mana behind and give your opponent a chuckle because you played such a bad card.
Idk if anyone said this, but the flavour text is a reference to Amnesty International. Same with the Dungeon Run cardback.
Synergy with Lorewalker Cho to get him out in one go? (Opponent draws candle, it casts itself, giving you a copy; then, you cast candle from your hand, giving him a copy. I guess you'd have to wait for one more candle.
*Edit: I can't read - the card reads "when your opponent draws a candle"
His least favourite card is Renounce Darkness.
oh god this is why they changed charge
wombo combo lategame deck seems good
I would like the candles to be different:
- Shuffle them into your own deck
- Cost 0' or 1 (I'd prefer 0 because of Skulking Geist but that might be too strong)
- Don't be cast when drawn.
That way it would have some cool synergies with something like Gadgetzan Auctioneer or Open the Waygate
Tbh one of the biggest upsides of this card is messing up Raza, idk about shuffling into your own deck.
Waiting for that moment when someone uses Zarog's Crown, sees the darkness and picks it with excitement, then realizes they summoned 2 useless minions
I got this card in the Arena i hope i can win a few times with it :D
The fact that The Darkness can't attack even though he woke up on your turn is a real bummer.
Another annoying thing is how you can prevent him waking up too, burning candle cards with 10 cards in the hand, playing The Great Archivist to cheat cast The candles, I don't know, this card is not powerful at all, too dumb for a slow, already-deck-gone summoning, 20/20 vanilla minion.
Nice card to counter "if you have no duplicates".
That actually sucks because this candle cards gets destroyed. 2/3 maximum = won't be able to awake the body.
