you wont play no duplicate deck unless its warlock because the hero power is draw. Priest draw mechanic is the worst imo. so Raza the Chained is low tier card. You want play Shadowreaper Anduin with duplicate. 2 to 3 times 2 damage ping is very good in control deck.
I love the card but honestly, it would be incredibly easy to make the exact same thing with shadowform synergy....
Like, it could simply put you in 1st shadowform hero power instead of this "new" one and simply add "Every card you play this game refreshes your hero power" in the hero text, like they did with Jaina.
Were they scared Majordomo would break wild?? /sarcasm
Very interesting card with a lot a potenial, i'm sure we all can talk about its combo possibilities on and on.
I see there are a lot of people discussing inifinte combos possibilities with radiant elementals and mind visions, and while I think it's rarely going to work, I nevertheless think that inclueding them into kazakus decks in two copies isn't that bad of idea, since in such decks this particular cards become absolutely nessessary to pull of combos.
I must admit, I'm a bit underwhelmed. It's definitely a good card, I'm sure it'll see play, and I can see it's potential, but it's just a bit boring. Was hoping for something completely new and revolutionary, but I guess sometimes you don't need to reinvent the wheel when you already have Benedictus stealing the entire car.
The battlecry is highly meta dependant but could give amazing value by itself. The new hero ability is obviously very strong. I guess we will see that card if priest is a thing in the next meta.

Who can take your trash out? Stomp it down for you? Shake the plastic bag and do the twisty thingy, too?
In any deck, this needs to kill 2 minions to be value. It's not that easy, you don't see so much 5+ minions played at the same time, except Jade Druid (and Skulking Geist already killed it).
I'm curious about this Anduin, hope to draw it and try it in my Quest N'Zoth Priest.
The battlecry effect feels expensive for what it does. Realistically unless the meta changes a lot, how many decks really have many targets for it? Jade Druid ? But no amount of destruction can cope with an infinite Jade cycle, plus any clever Druid player won't play more than 1 or 2 huge Jades at a time.

Priest class has been fun for years, crazy decks over years. NOW IT'S TIME TO BE THE BULLY. No more nice/controlling guy. Brute force is what PRiests need right now.
This would be hard to pull off with Raza demanding no dupes in the deck. But the dream is real, and this will see a lot of play in wild with Spawn of Shadows.

That's actually a pretty fair point, and I'm definitely keen to make Shadowpriest a thing finally, I was just a bit hyped after stuff like the Rogue and Hunter hero power's being so "new", at least in the space of consistent powers.
Also on the topic of the artwork, I actually really love the IDEA but the execution is lacking. The idea of a completely void formed Anduin, all mist and shadows, has so much potential... and this card kinda looks like a watercolour test design.
Do you guys think it will make Velen viable? I mean, especially in highlander after raza, this seems pretty nuts to me.
In a highlander deck you can blast for 18 with Velen/Mind blast if you raza'd...so it seems very plausible to try it out. 3 card combo's arent crazy hard to pull off. Drawing your deck out as a priest isn't easy though due to thief cards being a large majority of their draw.
This card with Raza basically gives all your cards: Deal 2 damage. People were playing Disciple of C'Thun even in non C'Thun decks and Fire Plume Phoenix and North Sea Kraken were also considered great cards. This Death Knight basically gives this Battlecry to all your cards with Raza.

I hate the art on this card, it's horrific ugly.

I might craft this for my combo priest. Perhaps -1 light of the naaru.
First playble DK. Maybe tier 2 deck.
pretty sure it's gonna synergize very well with a Raza the Chained followed by a Lyra the Sunshard + Radiant Elemental combo.
Wild is gonna be fun

Interesting and cool priest card with a goddamn ugly art thou :(

can't speak for this one in standard, in wild it's meta-defining
