Probably the worst worded card in the history of the game.
Really cool card though.
I don't see how, and I really don't see why people didn't understand the meaning immediately. It's repeatable this turn, you can repeat it...this turn, then it goes, it's self-explanatory surely?
Id say Meta defining... basically buff all your minions until they are great value for their cost. However, if it gets stolen by the numerous priest steals... sad shaman !
1) Turn 1 Pirate (Summon patches) 2) Coin 3) Cast this on patches, get sorcerer's apprentice 4) This spell is now free. Evolve other pirate into a Deathwing 5) Laugh at your opponent, then let them take their turn 2.
This card is _super_ interesting. Repeatable, can shift targets, like others have said works well with Arcane Giant and Gadgetzan Auctioneer. This is the first revealed card I flat out _want_ to get my hands on and try out now.
How is this not a broken card? Its taken me a while to like evolve shaman but this is almost too much. The only downside is that the rest of the evolve package is rotating out in 4 months? This might slow down evolve shaman since it more powerful when cast multiple times? If you like evolve shaman (which I do) this is a great card that extends the deck for another year!

But then you would have it on your next turn. This one is gone when you press the end button.

How it's going to be usable seems pretty obvious. The issue isn't so much with the wording but the lack of standardizing text effects so we know how it will interact with other things. We have an affect similar to Valeera here, I think it would have been better to standardized that text so we know it'll interact with things like Yogg or even Lorewalker Cho. Obviously the situations with Cho are pretty fucking fringe, but just for instance if I knew it was making a shadow copy in the opponents hand over and over again I can leverage that with say Coldlight Seer to mill a card or two.
Ultimately though, we play with it a few times and we'll get it. Not to big of a deal, but it would be nice to know off the bat in what way exactly it'll allow us to cast the spell over and over again.
I’m going with meta defining on this one. There are just so many possibilities with a 1 mana spell that you can cast as many times as you can afford. Plus it already slots in nicely to Shaman’s strongest deck! I excited to try this with Questing Adventurer, Mana Addict, Red Mana Wyrm, Wicked Witchdoctor, Arcane Giant, Gadgetzan Auctioneer, Arcane Anomaly, Yogg Saron and probably a lot more. I think the biggest limitation on this card is Skulking Geist, the better this is the more of him we will see.

Looking forward to my Yog Shaman deck with Arcane Giants and what not.
just waiting for a highlight when someone evolves a charge minion into a charge minion into a charge minion... etc.
Imagine getting Radiant Elemental or Sorcerer's Apprentice out of one of your Totems = Evolve every minion to a maximum!
Wow this plus Gazlowe, Apprentice or Radiant Elemental.

Completely broken
5 evolve effect in a sahamn deck mean that you either wipe the board clean evry turn or loose immediately.
As wise guys noticed, Skulking Geist shuts this down, though. I do,'t think geist is a healthy card leading to a healthy meta, though.
Also synergie with Wicked Witchdoctor and Violet Teacher Gadgetzan Auctioneer
much potential

Mage quest plays mana bind on turn 3, steals this spell and the quest is completed in just 1 turn :D

I wouldn't dust your extra copies of this card.
