I do not understand either why this card is epic.
Should have made it 3 dmg with overload 1 + this effect and give it to freeze shaman.
why would they do that if it's supposed to be areplacement for Mage?
Looking forward to adding this card to my Elemental Mage. I like the "optional" draw element since it's easy to either draw or add cards to your hand with that archetype.
Novice Engineer seems better... Is this supposed to be replacement for Ice Block?
Should've cost 1 mana. Compared to Holy Smite and Arcane Shot, the conditional draw would be balanced by the fact it only targets minions...
i don't think they ever intended this to be played
To be honest, it wouldn't be played in Constructed at 1 Mana either. But at least it would be a decent removal in Arena.
I agree that there will always be good and bad cards, but at least they all should be fair.
So in most cases you'll have to divert resources, like a Frostbold or a hit from a Water Elemental, to get the draw effect. It might replace itself, but you're losing fractional card advantage to get that draw.
Purify is better than this card, and it's a common. What the fuck ActiBlizz?
lol, no. i would say it's in the same powerlevel (*if you consider the card alone). but i can agree with the common part
So how do you Freeze a minion? Cone of Cold, Blizzard, Frost Nova, Frostbolt, Snap Freeze, Ice Lance. Or minions Snowchugger, Water Elemental. You need to play one of those for this to take effect. Very weak, why is it even epic.
Coz Ice Block was epic
This stupid card should be NOT a replacement.
So bad... This would be playable for 1 mana (or draw 2).
Could be strong if applies for enemy (face) and not just minion.
