I don't know how good its going to be. There will 100% be meme attempts so if it can work we will see it somehow.
Regardless, the game needs more cards like this because it forces people to try new decks.
I feel like there's a way to make this work in Warrior somehow. I just don' know how yet. Unless you save it for the end when you are fatigueing and either they kill/silence it instantly or you execute it or something.
I can't wait to see Kripp lose to this in Arena somehow.
Also, cards like this are why Coldlight Oracle had to die.
I'm really not sure what to do with this. I mean, I know what I can do with it - Self-Mill Warlock with Cataclysm, Druid with Naturalize, etc. - but it doesn't fit my interests. Kind of bummed because I like Classic-C'Thun decks, and he has one of my favorite Keywords (Deathrattle).
Behold, foolish interlopers! I am commanding this mortal to spread the will of the Scourge throughout the interwebs, encouraging you to seek out me, Archlich Kel'Thuzad! Now coming to you as the tenth class of Hearthstone!
I am a finalist in this Class Creation Competition, so if you could give it a look I would be greatly appreciative <3
for conventional play its bad, BUT think of the possibilities
play rogue with a bunch of control/early removal cards--->use legendary spell---> dump hand of cheap cards----> win
now this relies on you drawing the cthun... but it still seems fun
Not just drawing it but playing a 10 mana do nothing turn and hoping it doesn't get silenced or transformed or sapped or Frozen or Aldor peacekeeper-ed or just killed. Cause if you are hanging onto a card to kill your own C'thun and they kill it, then it won't trigger. It is PARAMOUNT you do it on the same turn.
Druid is about the only class that I can think of that has enough draw to get through it's deck, has enough defenses to be able to save a removal card such as naturalize AND can easily do it on the same turn via innervate or even Biology Project.
Warlock may be able to figure something out with Cataclysm. But again, you really don't want to just play it and hope it survives a turn. If you can figure out a way to do both on the same turn, by first playing C'thun then maybe there is a chance but I dunno how exactly yet.
Some weirdness with mage quest maybe? Priest Resurrect perhaps?
The reason this cannot be a battlecry is there is zero counterplay once the hand and deck are gone and this is the last card, which is not hard to do with some classes these days. I like that Blizzard is more willing to print some instant win conditions, and appreciate due caution when making them. The card may not be good, but it is worthy of its 10 mana legendary status, which I appreciate the most about it. We really need more N'Zoth, the Corruptor and Deathwing effects in our 10 cost legendary cards.

How you expected your C'Thun survive to play Cataclysm? If you play a no taunt 10/10 for 10 manas and the opponent can't deal with that then just win the game hitting the face with your monster...
Mecha'thun + Cataclysm in a warlock that just burns through their entire deck could be a real thing.
Also, I haven't seen anybody mention this but priest could also use this guy. Imagine a priest with all of the common cycling cards and combos (e.g. Northshire Cleric + Circle of Healing) that plays the following four-card combo: Reckless Experimenter, Mecha'thun, Twilight's Call and Spirit Lash. You stick the experimenter to sacrifice the mechathun at 7-mana when your deck is full (so there is no chance that they will tranform it). By only including one other deathrattle (thalnos), your one copy of twilight's call is certain to summon a 1/1 mechathun for 3 mana that you can kill with your spirit lash after emptying your hand and deck. To help thin your deck, you can include Hemet, Jungle Hunter and you can use the Inner Fire package as an alternate win condition.
Well, you would also have to play ever card you drew off of myra’s Unstable emlement and hope your Myra hot spring doesn’t get scilenced or killed early
PLay this whenever, then play down to Eternal Servitude, and Shadow Word: Death. Pull Mecha'thun for 4, kill it for 3. Profit. Could be fairly consistant if you don't have more than 2 other minions in your deck. Hemet might help you get there faster.

Would be a threat if it were a Battlecry. Not sure if it's really usable as a Deathrattle.
I can be wrong but DK's don't count, are heroes like the default ones but secrets, weapons , quests and dormants will be counted.
The meme is real. But sadly this suddenly downgraded Myra Rotspring
This improves the 10 mana pool for Spiteful decks too, BTW
Unpopular opinion: Rogue is OP
Ok, can be discovered from DK warrior in fatigue matchs and safe the day but don't see any use besides this.
Not competitive probably, but a fun card for sure. I love it!!! :D

Yes you are.
Just saying that the current tempostorm list for malygos druid already runs innervate and naturalize. And that deck's ranked #1 in standard.
If you could cut faceless manipulator, moonfire and alexstrasza and added Hemet and some other survival cards the deck might be tier 2-3 viable.

This card is made for deathrattle rogue.. Turn 7 : Myra Rotspring discover this, then play Myra's Unstable Element with Preparation then Backstab. Rogue exodia lol

You can't because you'll have cards in your hand. You need an empty hand for the effect.
Maybe Priest could use?

Galavant Animation
Draw Mecha'thun, Innervate, Naturalize. Have everything else low Mana or Mana spells. Hemet. Kill off Hemet. Play Mecha'thun, Innervate, Naturalize.
