What do you get when you combine an Ancient Brewmaster with with one of the most powerful Deathrattles? Say hello to Chen Stormstout.
*EDIT: Mana cost increased to 7.
The Deathrattle summons these three minions:
This can provide some great mid to late range pressure. Dealing with a 6/6 is harsh enough, but the deathrattle is what brings the big one-twp punch. 11 damage is on the board for your next turn if the opponent does not react properly.
This card would be a great addition to a mill druid deck. You can bounce back a Coldlight Oracle or Grove Tender for more card milling while playing your Poison Seed with this card on turn ten (turn eight with an Innervate).
I agree with Remhouse, the deathrattle is an 8/8 of stats alone so for 6 mana this is really broken. At 7 it would be really good still. Cool idea though man! I like the flavor. Mmm just dripping with flavor
The concept and artwork are amazing. I would definitely say 7 cost. The game lacks any variety in competitive 7 cost minions. Let's compare to Dr. Boom, a card which many argue is too strong. Dr. Boom is 7/7 and while this gives him a slightly bigger body, it opens the door to BGH so for body, advantage Chen. Dr. Boom summons two bots which have 1/1 body and the potential to deal 1-4, a minimum of 4 damage and a maximum of 10 (assuming that the opponent doesn't have an empty board and gets repeatedly smacked in the face) After this, the bots are no more, so 2 targeted damage and 2-8 random damage. The minions provide up to 11 targeted damage. The only advantage the boom bots hold is that they are harder to remove without sustaining some damage, but the RNG makes this point moot. If this card was available it would be 'the' seven(or six) drop and we would see a 'Petition to finally nerf Chen' thread. A potential mechanic to reduce the excessive value would be if the minion went to your deck instead of your hand but I think people would still be talking about summoning only 1 minion which I feel undermines the flavor of the card.
I think the battlecry effect is a bit unnecessary. I would remove the battlecry and decrease some stats of Chen and improve the pandalings' stats, and possibly increase mana to remove those pandalings' drawbacks. But maybe that's a little bit duller.
I think 3-1 windfury is useless, and the possibility of it being unchecked is highly disturbing.
I would give it stealth and spellpower, with maybe 2-1 stats. Because originally, it was the spellcaster of the 3. Just to give people here unfaimiliar with brewmaster class in w3, the tokens were representing the str, int and agi types respectively. Fire was just a swordsman with no affiliation with magic, though there were flames around him dealing damage per second to nearby enemies.
hmmm... take out the battlecry, makes the design too busy/clunky. seems OP because if Earth holds up then your opponent will take 10 damage to the face. Love the idea behind the three drops though. I think that 1/3 Taunt, 2/1 Windfury and 3/2 +1 spell damage would work better. (spell damage idea courtesy of iSinti)
Please, change the title, it's misleading. It's not a new existing legendary card.
This is a fan creations subforum...all threads here are like this, I don't see an issue
Sorry, I was coming from the homepage and I thought this was something like a new card announcement (disappointed though), I didn't know about this subforum.

Let me know what you think!
The mana cost should at least be of 7-mana... maybe 8.
Summoning that amount of stats, even for 1 turn, is too high for a 6/6 costing 6-mana.
Used to be a proud Handlock player.
Legend 17 times.
Still flirting with the ladder from times to times with Renolock.

I have no time for gains!

Free to try and find a game, dealing cards for sorrow, cards for pain.
I was gonna say it should cost one more, but then I read the comments and three people got there before me.
There's a loophole in the design: if Chen dies on your turn, 3 spirits die with him and do nothing. Is it intentional?
I really like this deathrattle idea, though.
the text on the 3 minions it summons says at the end of your next turn destroy this minion so they don't die in the same turn as Chen
Borussia Dortmund fan
I would change Fire to 2/2 and gave him +1 spell dmg. ... btw no water? qq :D other than that, rly cool card ;-)
... also Wailing Soul synergy mmm...

My bad.

I think the battlecry is there to make sure you get the 3 death rattles on the board

let me change your mind...
oh and i'd also considering making Chen 6/5. other brewmasters are 3/2 and 5/4 so seems to fit the existing ratio.
let me change your mind...
I would put him at 7/5 or 7/6
to put him in range for BGH
If you Hex a Murloc... it really isn't much of a change, is it?
Extremely interesting concept for a card... I have absolutely no idea whether or not this would be good but that is why I like it.
Nice idea!
