So it's basically just "Gain 5 mana". Nothing special.
edit: And draw a card most likely.
second edit: And attack with your minions twice. Okay. It's a fine card.
No, it's like after this turn ends, your opponent does absolutely nothing on his turn + discards his card draw. If you've ever played against an opponent that ropes out for a single turn, you know you've pretty much won the game after that.
This is an extremely powerful card, the only problem is managing to pull off the quest trigger to get it.
Imagine following: evolved kobold + double arcane giant + time warp: ----> next turn double fireball + frostbolt face for 21 + attack for 18... 39 dmg without giving a chance to respond... Nice to see a "power nine" card coming into HS!
Turn 9 for me: I play my two free Arcane Giant, and i cast a Fireball on your face (your total health -6). You think i end turn and you clean with your Twisting Nether? Wrong, i play Timewarp. So:
Turn 10 for me: (and still no turn 9 for my opponent): I attack with my two Arcane Giant (your total health -22). If you're still alive, i have now 10 mana for play something in my hand for killing you.
Everybody saying this will be amazing for freeze mage wtf? You obviously have no idea what you're talking about, this will be in a janky casino mage deck, not freeze mage
This allows you to gain 5 crystals. And attack twice. And draw a card. With no potential counterplay because this is Hearthstone and no one can intervene during your turn.
What about something like this in Wild? Obviously needs testing, but completing the quest should be very much possible, setting up some crazy combos...
I love how they kept us guessing about the quest. I don't think anybody thought it would be anything other than Secrets/Elementals.
They hid all the casino mage/non deck originating spells till this reveal as well.
You can play this card and minions basically have windfury and holy fq
5 mana rope twice PogChamp
right on the same though path as you :)

Considering Wild... does this work with Spare parts? If so... WHAAAAAAAAAT?!?!?!?

New freeze mage hype!!
maybe 2 mana binds for this to work..
it's less cards you need to hold off in your handc ompared to freeze mage and it's faster than it since you can use all your value.
It's very powerful effect.
Turn 8 of my opponent.
Turn 9 for me: I play my two free Arcane Giant, and i cast a Fireball on your face (your total health -6). You think i end turn and you clean with your Twisting Nether? Wrong, i play Timewarp. So:

Let me change your mind...
Freeze Mage is dead, long live Freeze Mage!
Meta defining for sure.
So they rotated out Ice Lance just to give us this instead.
THANKS BLIZZARD. It seems "fun and interactive" mage will continue to plague standard.
Custom cards :
CLASSES : Alchemist (CCC#5 | Phase V) | Chef (CCC#4)
EXPANSIONS : Year of the Scorpion (Year Comp)
What is Ice Block? This is the craziest combo card ever. Just drop enough 0mana giants on the field and attack next turn to win.
Doesn't this mean a 100% secure Doomsayer boom? Pretty relevant imo
Letsss do the tiime warp agaaain
