I really doubt that this card is good. This card is not a turn 1 play, naturally. But the thing is, this card makes your deck pretty inconsistent. Yes, you could eat some Eggs with this card but did you guys play Ravenous Pterrordax? Obviously adapting two times is better than gaining +2/+2 and Pterrordax wasn't that good either. And we have Void Terror, which didn't see any play for last 2 years.
Adapting two times could save your ass (for example, it would give you taunt or some spores), but getting a 3/3 on a board is not that impactful. So, you could play Pterrordax to eat one of your important minions in order to save your ass. But this card doesn't give you anything but pure stats. This card is just not good. I doubt we will see this card.
Void Terror is less situational because it eats your other minions' stats. So, you won't lose any stats. But, this card doesn't give you this guarantee. Sometimes you got to eat a 3/1 or even 4/1. Which is pretty bad in statwise.
Poor Warlock, they are going 0/2 this expansion. And I don't want any bad cards anymore. Warlock has already got bad cards from Un'goro and WOTOG. It has the worst core set. It really needs lots of good cards and they are kind of wasting it.
Like in every new expansion, Zoolock will be tier 1 for the first few weeks.
The reason is that while people will be trying and experimenting bad new archetypes - or testing bad new cards in good old archetypes -, Zoo gets some obvious strong additions like this one.
It is a cheap Deathrattle activator with excellent stats to back up, you can also do value trades then sacrifice guys which would get pinged or easily traded anyways afterwards - just think on how people uses Golakka Crowler in Token Druid and Pirate Warrior.
Then, once we do realize which new archetypes (and new additions to old decks) are good enough, Zoolock will likely go to bottom tier again.
this is basically just like the ravenous pterrordax. Since that card saw play whenever people tried to make zoo work, this card is probably good, but whether or not it sees play is a different question.

Just fill your deck with one drops, that is creative deck design, right?
2/2 bonus isn't worth the loss of card value, even as warlock, plus the 3/3 is still really easy to kill
It's a potentially decent card in Wild Zoolock with eggs. That's where I'm assuming the positive votes are coming from. In Standard it's trash without another Nerubian Egg quality card.
Something else thats useful. if you want to use the 'dont have 3 cost cards in your deck', this gives locks a way to have approximate 3 cost minion stat lines at a lower cost.
Not liking this card and surprised people are rating this so high. It would only really be good in hand turn 1 with coin and Possessed Villager. If you draw this even slightly later in the game it is a dead draw. Even with the Egg synergy, would you rather top deck a Doomguard or this card? Not to mention to play the Egg you lose soooooo much tempo. IDK about this one....
I don't think you can call this good until they print more eggs or cheap Deathrattles, which they well may.
1/5 because warlock is dead
First card I've actually thought is good
An amazing card for a wild zoo deck! 10/10

Fine card.
My magic will tear you apart!

This card is solid.

I'm not sure about this one, your trading a token for, a 3/3. It just doesn't seem really worth it.
I think at best you Possessed Villager, coin this, have a 1/1 and 3/3 on turn 1.
Extremely bad card. you never ever want a 1 drop that you cant play turn 1. Especially not in zoo.
There is a reason most Zoos didnt even youse void terror as pow was still around.
Another reason is, in zoo you need your deathrattles vs aoe, eat them for tempo is almost always a bad rank 25 play.
This is unplayable
Voted bad because nekid it's pretty awful and warlock is pretty awful without serious help coming.
Good card, not what warlock needs to be good again however.

This card basically reads: 1 mana 3/3 that triggers your deathrattle. Princess Huhuran was legendary and it's complete garbage compared to this.
Dear Blizzard,
Can we please start pushing this design instead of discard?
Thanks,
