nice alternative to jades (1st!)

Worse Jade Blossom.

So draw and play a 2 mana spell that is actually played? insane card.

Pretty good

dfg

i'd prefer the wild growth for spell synergy tho

Oaken Summons can give you armor and ramp now, exectly what big druid needs in the early game!

It is ok, probs good enough to see some play.

I say a bit weak, but strong compared to some 3 drops. 

jade blossom is better.

3/1 is surely better than 1/3. But I don't know whether that will be viable. Generally, it has a bigger body than Jade when played in the beginning, but will be much smaller in the endgame when the Jade Golems are big already. And it is a delayed ramp unless your opponent kills it on his turn. And that confuses me a little bit. On the one hand, you want it to die anyway to get the ramp. On the other hand, you want it to get value as a body as well and it can be killed by anything, even a ping.

I think this is not good enough, simply because it is a deleyed ramp if your opponent doesn't want to kill it and it is a bad lategame topdeck at which time it is even worse than a 3 drop (I am pretty certain it will not give you excess mana like Jade Blossom doesn't since you have an effect besides the ramp). Maybe playable when Jade Blossom and Mire Keeper rotate out.

Edit: Changed my opinion a bit. With recruit, this is a better pull than Mire keeper and ramp up more consistently. On the other hand, I don't know whether the body is good enough for recruit... damn, now I am really undecided...

Groot! Hearthstone version.

Clearly what druid lacks is more ramp

It's a slow jade blossom for a bit better body (unless ur running jade druid then it's much worse body).  For instance with jade blossom you can play it on 3 and then nurish the next turn.  You can't quite do that with this card but you can sac it on 4 and the next turn you can spreading plague.

This is clearly worse than Mire Keeper.  A 3/3 is definitely more than 1 mana better than a 3/1 and mire keeper is a battle cry and this is a death rattle.  That said Mire keeper is a staple in every non-aggro druid.  If this card is almost as good it might just be good enough.

When jade blossom rotates out this will take it's place, might already be in every druid deck cause ramp is so good.

better than jade blossom for non-jade druids

The big thing with this is since your opponent doesn't want to kill it, you get to have a really good trade with it.

swap jade blossom only for Big druid.

On jade we can swap mc tech for this cards

yea, we were really missing some ramp stuff...

super disappointed blizzard...

I just thought of something if this dies when you're already at 10 crystals do you get excess mana?  If not this is a pretty dam awful top deck.

Is better than Mire Keeper, you can play this in turn 3 and don't is a terrible outcome from the 6 armor recruit spell.

Jade druid has been figured out already, this card won't see play there, big druid on the other hand might slot 1 of these in for the early presence and more ramp. (and definitely after mire keeper and jade blossom rotate)
