You know what really kills it for me? It's not "Destroy all minions." It's 8 damage, which is a lot but in the twitch livestream where they announced this, they had C'Thun up to 17/17 easy. If you're relying on it for a board clear it might not even be enough to do it.

If you're up against C'Thun (and you'll know very early on if you are), you would just save a Polymorph. You wouldn't waste a slow legendary trying to deal with him.

I have to say this is the best card art I have seen from this entire expansion, like others have said not clear on the wording it reads as if it will self destruct on play?
It blows my mind that people still think this card is good. This is literally one of the worst cards in the game. If you compare this card to Abomination or Unstable Ghoul, both cards never played (except the ladder in patron decks). Both of those cards have the same effect pretty much but this guy doesn't even have taunt. Not only that but his deathrattle is a liability for your board, so you want to be able to kill this guy off the turn after, so your opponent has to not have a taunt and have a minion with 6 damage. And you also have to be killing things with 4 hp and up to justify using this over Flamestrike and you also have to not die the turn after, soooooo. Literally bottom of the barrel.
You not supposed to survive vs zoo till turn 8. And what u gonna do if they put 1/3 taunt? And u cant suicide it into anything even if there is no taunts - zoo wont have anything above 5 dmg most times (if they do you have to pin it also) except for giants (and if they Do have giants they probably protect it with taunt). A board clear that relies on the actual card to be killed - but these kind of things work good with cheap minions with low hp (explosive sheep or that 4-4 taunt, or even unstable ghoul). But not 8 mana minion with NO taunt. Thats awful.
It does represent a threat if you put it on an empty board though - kinda denies any big board developings untill this is killed, and threatens 8 damage to the face, which is kinda ok, but I honestly wanted a bigger impact leg for mage. So disappointed.

In a control vs control matchup, where the opponent has already developed a board, this could be very awkward to deal with. Aside from that i just don't see any value.
This card is not very good, but has a purpose. If that old god who brings deathrattle cards into the game become popular, this card will see play. It can counter the deathrattles with his own deathrattle. Same for the new Deathwing

So you're going to play this when your opponent has 20 damage on board after n'zoth the corruptor? Sure, you just have to ask him to not go face for a turn and that'll work out fine.

the mana cost is 8 to 10, you have to play him before. Even if your opponent dont play him, its a win situation, because of your enemy tempo loss. Like when you play a Sylvannas on turn 7, and your opponent has a ragnaros in hand. Sure the ragnaros can make damage, IF you dont loose first to sylvannas

You do realize that your opponent has other cards than n'zoth right? Playing an 8 mana minion could just as easily be a tempo loss for you if he has removal.
On an empty board it can be dealt with, with removal. On a board where he has minions he can remove it (depending on class and deck), trade, or just go face. The situations where this would be better than pretty much any other removal are incredibly scarce.

Yes, but there arent that much removal in the game. For example, if you remove him, you have to deal with Antonidas, etc.
But i see your point, and you may be right. Lets see how the meta goes

I didn't mean that you would want to play this card in response to C'thun. If you play this card into a relatively tame board, the opponent could play C'thun, which would kill Anomalus and survive the blast. C'thun is going to be all over the place, and it's a hard counter to the few situations where you might argue for using Anomalus.

Can't be played with Frost NOva, but, it can with Shieldbearer.

the only deathrattle i would never run with n'zoth.........
his effect is pretty good though..... not sure how often you can get it off....
I actually wish this was in warlock. My AOElock was needing another big AOE minion.
This is going straight in my Yoggy spell deck.

Should read all enemy or all other minions
