Fo fucks sake I thought it'd be at least until the expansion came out till someone mentioned a use for this card I was too stupid to see. Thanks a lot now I feel stupid way sooner than I planned.
I instantly rated this as „meta-defining“ and am really wondering about the bad ratings...
It plays well into Ramp Druid
It replaces itself with a bigger minion
It has synergies with all minions with additional effects, especially with Battlecry and Deathrattle effects
Currently the main issue is that Druid doesn’t play very interesting Minions at all - they care more about Taunt and Ramp. But this can easily be changed (and will change because of this card!)
Big druid is t4 deck at moment. Nobody scares now if you just play big minions one by one somewhere after turn 7.
And this new legendary doesnt make big druid stronger. It just gives you another one 10/10 minion, which you can play endgame for full mana and without any board impact. This is too weak for a class legendary. You can just place some Arcane giant into big druid deck and you will have even better game impact.
No one is talking about how cool the flavor of this card is? It has the copy effect that Druids have been getting as of late, but in an awesome way: he chops off a splinter, and grafts it. He turns a tiny, insignificant piece of another minion into a pseudo-seed, and allows it to grow, like the form of cloning most plants utilize today. I think this card is wonderful, and it looks like a lot of fun. At worst, it's still a decent value card.
This card seems like it will work best with cards that make themselves free (giants, arcane tyrant, kun, and happy ghoul to name a few) and cards with great card text that you want on a bigger, harder to ignore, body, (corpsetaker, hadronox, saronite chain gang). Its not anything thats going to break the game but some people just like to play with big numbers.
I think it's potentially playable, but not much more than that. Maybe light synergy with the quest? One of my most regretted yolo crafts (first craft after coming back from a 1.5-2 year break haha).
I doubt it sees too much, if any (competitive) play.
Oh, I also crafted to quest and regretted it very soon because quest druid doesn't work and is actually very boring to play. Most big druid lists don't need quest.
And about the card, it could have very good synergy with some cards (Doppelgangster comes to mind but it is rotating). However, I don't know any cards that have synergy with this AND could be played in a druid deck (for example, I don't think many players would run Argent Commander just because of this card.) Maybe this card will be valuable or at least ok against control as this is a 8-mana 8/8 that also gives you a 10/10 in hand.
Hard to say something aboute it
Sins of jades.

Aviana - Kun The Forgotten King - Splintergraft combo
Choose and copy Kun, have 40 armor one turn :D "or copy big minion for example Ragnaros Fire Lord
Splintergraft is meta for big druid!
Have people forgotten Twig of the World Tree exists?
Win more card. Friendly minion tag makes it much worse.
such salt much BM.
Very underrated.
8/8 is strong body, so is 10/10. 8/8 draw a card for 8 would be unanimously considered excellent, but this is in my opinion as good.
Basically, you can play a lot of ramp, and have TWO late game threats with one single card.

Nature and stories.
you can play Voodoo Doctor Happy Ghoul and this card and get 2/1 3/3 8/8 and 10/10 for 9 mana
All this timmy stuff this expac is nice and so one but its all useless unless they nerf Warlock to the Abyss and take spitefull Summoner with it.
suck on that druid
shaman rising.

I like this card :)
Meat Wagon
Your turn could look like this...
Twig of the World Tree on it's last durability...
Kun, refresh mana, Splintergraft the Kun, break weapon, 10/10 Kun again, refresh mana, play giant thing...
That's a 7/7, 8/8, 10/10 and a 10 mana thing...
now i start to see why 70 packs for the price of 50 .............
