Slayer of Tyrantus
Love this card! It pairs so well with DK Jaina.
Weird that I haven't heard anyone mention this card with Sonya Shadowdancer. Anywho...her time has come. :D
Name: Voodoo Rogue
Early/Midgame - blah blah tempo rogue...Generate Razorpetals with Razorpetal Volley & Razorpetal Lasher
Turn 7 - Play Sonya and stealth her with Master of Disguise (Pray they don't spend AoE).
Turn 8 - Drop Voodoo Doll and Razorpetal it. You'll get another 1/1 Voodoo Doll that costs 1-mana because of Sonya. Rinse, Wash, Repeat, and you can kill at least 3 minions total provided you have at least 3 razorpetals in hand this turn, and you'll still have a Voodoo Doll for next turn because of Sonya.
Worst Case Scenario: they see Sonya and MD and waste AoE or board wipe. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Run all this in a deck with Cursed Castaway to get Vilespine Slayer or Plague Scientist which help kill any late game baddies.
You Heard It Here First :)
Wonderfully written :)
However Voodoo Rogue becomes Potato Rogue once you realized how impractical this combo is
There really are a lot of fairly cheap two-card combos that this can take advantage of. Many of them are 4-5 mana, so this gives most classes access to an Assassinate effect that can target any non-stealth minion on the board. Plenty of cheap ping/whirlwind effects out there. Literally any class could just run this and Elven Archer, and it gives you the ability to kill off a Deathwing, Sleepy Dragon, Ysera, etc. (Not that this can only kill dragons ;), was just thinking of high health minions that are usually a real hassle to clear without running multiple minions into otherwise).
4-mana combos with Mortal Coil or Dark Pact - Destroy any minion and either draw a card or get back 8 health? Yes, Please...
Sanguine Reveler is another 4-mana option to activate this Deathrattle.
Any effect that gives this card Rush gives it immediate value. Not that Warriors would put Charge into a deck just for this, but that's another 4-mana combo. Most of the decks that use the "Effect Formerly Known as Enrage" can take advantage of this card with Inner Rage, Whirlwind, Animated Berserker, Cruel Taskmaster, etc...
Gives priest a 5-mana option to kill off those pesky 4-attack, high health minions...
Rogues can combo this with Shiv for the Assassinate effect plus card draw, or if running a deck that generates Razorpetals. Being a Deathrattle card it synergizes with Roll the Bones and Lesser Onyx Spellstone
Obviously, Stealth or Charge minions play around this little guy's strength. You could also get burned playing this against an aggro deck running Silence effects if you play it on curve, and they hit it with a Spellbreaker and just continue going face.
I like that this gives all classes access to a cheap single target removal if they use some creative methods to activate it. I expect it will be an almost auto-draft in arena. And if we see a Mountain Giant-type meta with big minions getting cheesed out in the early to mid-game, I think this will be a popular card.
Oh, and to Swamp King Dred, Voodoo Doll says "Hello", and Goodbye. heh.
This is the first card I've rated as Meta Defining! This will be in every Control Warlock! They have so many easy ways of killing this off that they basically have another targetted removal, another way to kill Carnivorous Cube, and also another minion to help set up Defile combos while killing something out of Defile range. Very good. Will see play.
One of the only cards, where potion of madness is actually bad.
whats potion of madness, is that a wild card
Funny, this doll does not combo with Dollmaster Dorian
And for that, Hearthstone must die.
One job. THEY HAD ONE JOB!
He makes friends, not voodoo.
most people said very good not meta defining and unlike poly this card can fit into odd decks
also warrior and warlock can use this card easily
can target untargetable minions
umbra synergy
this card is good
Assassinate
If you sit down over a voodo doll of yourself you can create a black hole
Battlecry and Deathrattle: Tell Cubelock to go fuck itself.
Combo with Baron Rivendare in wild for double kill value kappa
Don't forget Brann Bronzebeard for double marks :^)
Ayyyyy Baku Warrior auto-include!
