Balanced effects are always balanced right?
I don't see why this gets hate. You will know your opponents deck and what they want to do and make sure not to draft any of that. Also, an overstated neutral minion that draws a card cant possibly be bad.
Maybe this just isn't overstated anymore b/c of power creep.
The effect seems strong for a type of mid-range deck that values some randomish card draw. You would also want to be playing a deck where you feel like you are more likely to run out of cards than the opponent. With the advent of even-odd aggro decks that don't seem to run out of cards as fast as the aggro decks of old, maybe that is a dying breed, but I just look at overstated plus cards and I think it can't be as bad as people are making it out to be.
Also, against combo-y decks where they may not even be able to play the card you give them this is great - think wild big-priest, or kingsbane rogue or a cycle heavy deck getting stuck with an overcosted card that would cost them a turn of cycling shenanigans to actually play out. Niche use cases to be sure. And as a wild player I can say this will NOT be seen in wild.
LOL not even a 5/6 for our trouble.
Why should it? Both Tanglefur Mystic and Spellslinger have vanilla stats, and you have less control about what you and your opponent might get.
This card is balanced. Not good, but not terrible like most people says.
The fact that this wasn't a hunter card makes me sad. The little teaser art had a cat similar to Alleycat & Cat Trick and the final art even has the emblem for Halazzi's Lynxes.
I feel like this card is really good in certain match ups especially if you build your deck around a tribe or weapons since you can choose two buff a weapon cards in rouge(class cards are 4x as likely) and watch your opponent getting a card that will have no use if they do not run weapons. I think the card might be run also to give the opponent a dead card and hopefully burn a good card. also you know what the card is so you can always play around it as well.
This card is actually not that bad for aggressive decks that need card draw. Like Midrange Hunter, you can just choose 2 beasts and your opponent won't get chance to play it.
This guy in WoW takes shots at certain characters, saying stuff like "Ol' Vol'jin wouldn't have died if he had his INVULNERABILITY totem; come check out me wares!"
His store is nothing but junk. His totems do nothing though they cost lots of gold. Probably the idea behind this card.
If Hakkar isn't the meme card, this is it.
I can't wait to dust this
Ultra trash tier. 1 star will not see play now or in ANY hypothetical future
A pretty good card for a controllish deck against aggro. Just discover Flamestrike, Blizzard or Brawl or other big AoE-spells, which are favourable for you and useless for your opponent. Even against a controllish opponent it could be good.
Well, not for every class. Could be bad in Hunter or Rogue, which has little to no mass removals. Will be good in controllish Warlock, Mage or Warrior.
Added: Well, if you are playing aggro, just discover two 1-drops, that could be good for you and useless for your opponent.
It’s not clear of what you will get. You Discover 2 cards. You place in your hand both of them? and one of them you put into your opponent hand? Or you place one card from Discover to your hand and the second one to your opponent? So, you get two more cards or just one?
Tanglefur Mystic is not good enough, this one is also arena only card, but only because Chillwind Yeti is okeish in arena
Well, every expansion needs at least one fun neutral legendary so here it comes. It looks good in those terms. Memes are coming.
so, we pretend Hakkar, the Soulflayer doesn't exist?
Never. I would be to scared of that hateful snake. Griftah has a meme even in his name though.
It might be one of trollish ways to pronounce "gift". Pretty twisted one but so is the effect.
Weird card...
Not to mention that same card can have different value in different decks. Like you are playing vs Odd Paladin and discovering two Volcanos. Or Defile, Spirit Lash, Volcanic Potion, or any other spell that damages all minions.
If you could chose which card to keep, this might see play in constructed. With the random allocation of cards, it will be a meme only
I think, this card is funny. I like it :)
