This is a huge deal for shaman! Because shaman has a lot of short mana spells, this can draw a specific card you need!
Playing control shaman? Draw a volcano. Still playing classic token shaman? Draw a bloodlust. All we need is a good epic and legendary spell that costs (5) or more, then I'll rate this card over 9000 out of 5!
That's a tutor for Bloodlust right here. With all the sparks cards that were revealed token Shaman should be really good. You can even play Bloodlust with Electra Stormsurge on turn 8+ to give all minions +6 Attack. Even a couple of totems may be lethal.
Draws your volcano in a Shudderwock deck, which is pretty cool. Any other (constructed) uses?
draws Eureka! for a Malygos shamman, now hear me out back when Ancestor's Call existed, malygos shammy was a thing, and it still is in Wild, however with Eureka you can make it even more consistent snce it's a copy and you can setup ttks between two eurekas
Currently there are only three spells this card would draw: Bloodlust, Volcano or Lesser Sapphire Spellstone and two of those only see niche play (Token Shaman has died out whereas Overload Shaman is still nothing but a meme). Hence, the legendary spell better be 5 mana+ with some serious effect (no, Eureka! isn't good enough) to let it see any Ranked play. And please, don't come up with those Malygos shenanigans.
Given the value of the card is so weak compared with its stats, I'd have to draw an especially strong spell in order to make this card worth including. I'd have to build a deck with this card that is similar to a Spiteful Summoner deck, with only one or two spells that are necessary for winning the game, a difficult task. Add this to fact that my Shaman decks rarely use any big spells, and I do not see a future for this card.
pretty nice art, decent stats, another elemental, goes well with the other new spell Eureka if some sort of maly shaman becomes a thing and probably will go well with the new legendary shaman spell we haven't seen yet.

A lot of people are saying that this will tutor the new legendary spell, except the legendary spell is going to cost 3 or less. If you look at the boomsday guide, the cards in the same class of the same rarity are organized by mana cost, most expensive on the left.

Hearthpwn has no clue what cost the legendary spell is gonna be.
I like this one it will be good in overload shaman, and work well with eureka, but where are shamans mechs? the new cards look to push some kind of aggro shaman which is kinda scary. if the new legendary spell summons 5 or something murlocks i might dust shaman.
Did you mean the legendary spell
Because they are totally different things. Blackwald Pixie is a pixie, and pixies are not elementals. Storm Chaser appears to be a Pandaren Water Spirit, which is an Elemental: https://wow.gamepedia.com/Pandaren_spirit

I like elementals and totems.

With Eureka and Malygos
With a Bloodlust deck playing a single bloodlust
Or with Shudderwock for an increased count of volcanoes (as well as fast deck cycling)
A very good card
I like it. Shaman now has some OK draw mechanics beside obvious Mana Tide Totem, it now has Sandbinder, Witchwood Piper and now for spells this card. I guess to target Eureka!, Lesser Sapphire Spellstone or whatever the legendary spell is in this expansion.
Can draw the new six mana spell for maligns shaman
Favorite Cards: 1. Lord Jaraxxus | 2. Malygos| 3. Edwin VanCleef | 4. Zephrys the Great| 5. Deathwing

It's a tutor, it's better than a 4 mana 2/4, and it's an elemental. Pretty good.
Shockingly, tutors are good so this is good.

Oh yeah dang haha I guess that's true!
Bloodlast Meta defining!
This would be so busted in Even Shaman if 5 was an even number.
Eureka! Malygos
