Oh right... Start of Game....mmmh...Interesting!!!. It's better that way.
Wow! They referred this from our mythology, Bakunawa the moon eater.

Are you fucking kidding me, this card is terrible people! You have to get rid of a ton of valuable cards (Admittedly some classes have it easier than others) and what's the reward?
AN UPGRADED HERO POWER.
I'm sorry, but most classes' upgraded h-powers aren't even worth a fuck, let alone sacrificing valuable card slots for this shit. If I see this thing, I don't care if it's somehow the new meta, I'm fucking dusting it.
Remember when EVERYONE called Prince Keleseth terrible because it supposedly crippled your deck?
I totally love this card, it will be real funny to play with almost every class! (Rogue is meh)
In case some of you forgot the Justicar upgrades:
Power Creep Justicar
not really. Justicar you didn't need to build you deck around. This guy you do. Plus hes a dead card in hand.
The problem of justicar is draw her And a 6/3 is not that great
Calling it now, this one is going to be a powerhouse. It can't really be assessed the same way Justicar Trueheart can, since how you end up with the hero power is immensely different, meaning classes that Justicar Trueheart never worked out in could be redeemed here. It doesn't matter at all that you don't have any even cost cards on turn two because every single game you're getting a semi solid play regardless of whatever hand you get. I have a hard time believing this won't end up working somehow.
I honestly think that Baku will be strongest in Shaman, calling it now.
Not only the (probably meh) synergy with the Totem Matters guys in the last block, but being able to always get the totem you need starting as early as turn 2 is going to be frustrating as hell for a lot of opponents.
You've all had those games where every turn the Shaman gets the taunt totem or they roll exactly what they need exactly when they need it. It's a hero power balanced by the fact that it's random. And now it's not random :D
This could be really powerful in a fast paladin or really irritating in an armor-heavy control fatigue warrior, depending upon the new cards which are released.
Well, this will either be the king of gimmicks (along with Genn Greymane or it will be meta.
I look forward to either.
I'm skeptical that this card will work out, but I think a 'Mooneater Mage' deck could be interesting to mess around with.
A hero power of 'Deal 2 Damage' is strong, especially when you have it at the start of the game to stave off early aggression. Polymorph: Boar becomes a very good card because its cheaper and more versatile than Polymorph and you can immediately kill the 4/2 Boar with your upgraded Hero power.
You'd have to ditch some strong cards like Fireball, Frostbolt, Arcanologist, Mad Scientist, and Primordial Glyph, but there are quite a few good odd mana cards like Arcane Blast, Babbling Book, Forgotten Torch, and Flamestrike. Plus you can still use all of your Secrets.
At the very least, this and Genn seem like they'll at least be interesting to build a deck for.
Well, she's not very good at her job, I can see the moon right there behind her.
ShadowOfSense, you are always on point. Just wanted to say that.
It's only a name, not a title. You can't expect her to devour something that huge.
