The targets in this case aren't malygos or other big minions. More like small minions with a good effect. The new 2drop with 1/1 for other minions for example
Seems good for cheating out high cost stuff, but even if this pulls a 1 or 2 drop it can be pretty strong if they have an effect you want to stick, 5/5 Northshire Cleric or Radiant Elemental seems good.
Echoing my thoughts from the article. I feel like it has its place. Velen is an obvious target and an obvious upgrade to playing him from hand, since he's used as a combo piece anyways. But cards like Thaurissan, Chromaggus, K.T., Cairne, Obsidian destroyer, Twilight Summoner (6 mana 5/5 that resummons itself, seemsgood?) or silence targets like humongous razorleaf, icehowl or either deathwing are all decent targets.
Consider the implication of benedictus with this card and playing a 6 mana tirion, antonidas or sherazim, however unlikely it might be, of course. Pair this with resurrect effects and some shenanigans will definitely be achieved.
Even if the card "misses" you still get a 5/5 which is a lot better than missing with the old resurrect effect decks or mindgames, so it's not the worst thing in the world.
I think that this is going to be one of those cards that people are seriously underestimating. Especially along with the other cards that priest got this expansion, my mind goes to a spell priest with Obsidian Statue and Lyra the Sunshard as the top end minions, pull them out with Barnes or Shadow Essence and and maybe some resurrect with Onyx Bishop and Eternal Servitude. Create some powerful, sticky minions with all of the spells priest is known for, added survivability due to Spirit Lash, too! Place it in a Shadowreaper Anduin deck, and I dunno. I feel like theres some kind of Resurrect Miracle Priest in there somewhere. But what I'm saying is this card has potential.
But I'm also a priest main and tend to get excited about every card revealed so...
I like it, will try it. Imo in quest Priest any outcome is not so bad.

Why people say that it overcosted? 5/5 with powerful effect worth 6 mana.

The creativity in these forums can be so low sometimes :(
here is the plan.
on turn 10, you play Radiant Elemental + Radiant Elemental + Shadow Essence pull Malygos (the only other minion in your deck) cast Mind Blast + Mind Blast + Holy Smite + Holy Smite
never lucky
Medivh Priest has some serious minion generation now

I think its pretty good if you build a proper deathrattle/constant effect priest deck.
It really depends on is the 6 cost worth the variance.
Random kinda makes this awkward. To bad it couldn't be Discover, might be playable then.
Not sure if hyped yet.
turn 6 yasera ;)
What a dull card, i'm glad they're finished with Priest reveals.
6 mana for a 5/5 Sylvanas. The value!
