I didn't even click in the vote section and my screen says I still voted for Dust It!...lol. Seriously, though, this shit had better make some kind of underground comeback like Gadgetzan Ferryman did in Quest Rogue or else this is just going to be a repeat of Toxic Arrow. Any Hunter deck made 100% of spells is going to be trash. You only have limited minion generation from cards like Cat Trick, Wandering Monster, Animal Companion, Call of the Wild and this crap, your soft removal will be absolute garbage, your hard removal methods will only be sub-par most of the time and your board clears won't do jackshit! Even if you can still run the Hunter DK in the deck (since it's a playable hero, not a minion), your board clears will suck and you won't be able to generate enough value over the whole course of the game. If Blizzard wants to push new archetypes for Hunter, they shouldn't push trash.
This at 5 would have been a pretty neat card. Tough condition to achieve, but getting two companions for 5 out of one card would have been interesting and powerful if you build around it and make it work.
As is, looks terrible. Play Lion on 6, skip this, and have more deck options.
Why do current synergies have to exist for a card to be printed? Why can't you fucking wait before this card finds a spot in a deck like Purify did? Why can't you fucking wait before we see all cards from the fucking set? These are are all rhetorical questions by the way.
This card is all about curve value bewteen 3 and 9 and of course deck building circumstance. Hunter has secrets, direct damage and a hero power to drive early game damage which has always made it a prime candidate for a solid control class but they keep cycling worthy cards out before it all comes together. You run 2 animal companions, two To My Sides, and two call of the wilds and you have equal board presence to most other control decks. (The rng is certainly an issue) but with Deathstalker Rexxar for late game (also rng) things could shape up solid. No one can accurately judge the synergy of this card without play testing.
But please answer me this, because this is what I'm not getting in all these apologist posts. Imagine you have this incredible control Hunter deck where you have 28 of 30 cards selected. Let's imagine they're all spells. You decide you need something for the 6-mana slot. Even in this hypothetical world where a control Hunter deck with 28 spells is perfectly viable and you have the gap that To My Side! is supposedly designed to fill, why would you pick it? What current synergies exist that make it worth running over Savannah Highmane?
Or, to put it another way, what other current synergies exist to make it worthwhile building a deck with absolutely no minions apart from this card, which is still merely average in that deck?
Hey Jade Druids, Raza Priests and Keleseth Rogues !
I'll Purify your kingdoms of oppression against the meta ! NOW TREMBLE before the might of my 2 Huffers ! To My Side! hahahah, oh wait, you again Leokk ? whyyy ??? feelsbadman

Also pretty obvious this is not just companion with a 6 manacost.
I know right? I particularly enjoy choosing the exact Dream card I want from Ysera.
Blizzard not only has a track record of inconsistent text, but has made it a matter of policy with KaC with minions like Ysaarj, Finja, Desert Camel, Deathlord, etc not being updated with the Recruit keyword. Why would you think this is any different? If you're going to make inferences based on nuanced wording so much, then why does Animal Companion say "Beast Companion" yet To My Side! says "Animal Companion"? Oh my God they must be completely different token minions!
In the video for Branching Paths the devs said the multiple choice was unique to that card. My money is that the new 6 mana Call of the Mild is completely random.

Ysera is end of turn, end of turn you cant make choices its against game coding thats why it its random this is not.
Finja/Camel and recruit cards are random because choice range would be to big to put it on screen like a possible discover 29 cards for example how you want to put that on screen? Thats why those cards are random.
I think this card is totally legit and playable in Recruit hunter but I'm not gonna waste time trying to voice my opinion. Most of you don't build decks anyway, you have no clue about anything.
Granted, this is not insane, but if you can guarantee the outcome it's pretty good value, and you definitely can.
Let's not talk about the Highmane madness, I hope they nerf it to the ground so I'm done reading "worse than Highmane" on every single 6 drop reveal that has nothing to do with tempo/beast hunter.
Sure, 'cause the legendary isnt a minion, and therefor works perfectly with this card. As they said, I think it wouldnt see play even if it costed 5

Of course it won't see play. You need to have spell deck for this shit to work. It won't see play if it costed 3 mana, because again, you need to play a spell freaking deck for it summon 2 companions. You could simply add the original card and other 3 drops because Hunter does't lack 3 drops.
Is it weird that the overwhelming hate for this card makes me want to play it? ;P
In this card's defence, there are two ways to play this. One is the spell deck, but the other is recruit. If you can use that to get your beasts out of your deck, this could in theory help. I'm gonna at least try this out. At least it's not Highmane (which should've been Hall of Famed by now IMO.)

Hey guys, Ben Brode here. We read your thoughts and opinions about our new card and decided to not allow it to appear in arena draft and also, we will increase the price of packs. Those who preordered our next expansion will have it locked until the new price is paid.
Thank you all again for helping us make the game fun and interactive.
9 mana "Summon all three animal companions". Cost increased from 8 mana to 9 mana because the effect is not random and summons all three companions, which are said to cost 3 mana each on average.
6 mana "Summon two random animal companions, IF your deck has no minions, otherwise summon 1 random animal companion"... WTF??!!
Blizzard is retarded.
This is the worst card ever printed. Not just worst class card ever, but the worst card ever. Magma Rager doesn't have a retard condition for it to be played.
The card will NEVER see play. Even if Blizz introduce decent spells for Hunters, the deck will contain those spells and good minions. No one will add this crap to the deck.

Actually, if you got to pick your 2 companions sorta like the 'choose twice' mechanic this would be pretty decent.

Anger is the punishment we give ourselves for someone else's mistake.
I really don't understand why hunter it getting this shit.
