 ehm look at malygos druid and tell me how many minions it does play? you take out faceless and arcane tyrant, whats left is, lich king, alex and malygos... thats it. you have guaranteed to hit them, and since they have tons of armor gain, they can survive easily.

 You have to take them out first :) It's not that easy to do in game as it seems now in the hype train. I repeat, remember Lady in White, she proved all of you wrong that time. Don't get fooled 2nd time in a row.

I hope they don't maly otks are always fun but they've been giving druid Bashit crazy cards for the past few expansions and maly druid may be 2 strong.

Blizz is loving druid, just wow. 

This card has the potential of breaking Hearthstone in 2 halves, just by the fact that this card can replace one of the best combo activator in Hearthstone history ( Aviana ) you immediately know this is a legendary tier card, why this card is broken as hell ? 

Emperor Thaurissan \ Aviana saw tons of play, and they didn't even had a way to tutor them, their combos requires 3 to 5 cards AND THEY SAW PLAY WITHOUT A TUTOR CARD, imagine 2 copies of Dreampetal Florist and also 2 copies of Juicy Psychmelon, + Malygos.

1 card can draws you all of your combo pieces in turn 4, you reach turn 7 using Wild Growth, and play this, then turn 8 Malygos. 

Malygos :

Turn 8 : 

2 mana Malygos + 1 swipe + 2 moonfire + hero power = 22 dmg on TURN 8.

OR 

Turn 8 : 2 mana Malygos + 4 mana Floop + 2 moonfire + hero power = 21 dmg. 

Im gonna use dollmaster with lichking, this and malygos. Play dollmaster into the draw 4 thing, will be insane value

Maly druid has like, what, three backup plans now? Floop, twig, and, if all else fails and maly is the only minion in your hand left, discounting maly to 2 mana allows a double swipe double moonfire turn for 30 damage. And discounting floop or faceless is also not terrible for maly druid, if they have to resort to that.

Also: Drawn by Juicy Psychmelon, a cheaper sprint that also tutors.

I guess they are checking how far they can push Druid before they have to nerf some cards.

To all those who say that it's risky to play because you could die next turn: you obviously won't play this card against aggro until you stabilize, Druid has plenty of cards that will let you survive.

 Lady In White is a bad example, she required a deck and you need to build a deck around her, this card can be played in any deck. 

I understand the hate because of combo decks(maly and togwdruid) , on the other hand, this could make cards like star alligner possible to play with the battlecry, which sounds interesting to me. One question, can it pick a target which cost is already zero if i have other minions too? 

Druid was already tier one with several decks. They're giving them even more fuel in this set, ridiculously so. are they trying to ruin the game? cause thats how you ruin the game.

A thing to add: In metas in which druid is S tier, you just have to play inner fire priest. Cures it.

Since Evergreen Nerfs we haven't seen any tier S classes (maybe paladin was tier S after WW, but it wasn't as obvious as in Druid's case). I'm so glad it's going to change in few weeks

Edit: this expansion should be renamed to "The Final Prank of Ben Brode" , right?

 Well, this one has no use playing in treant/hand druid deck, only in heavy ones lke Malygos/Hadronox.

Well, after the initial emotions cooled a bit, I can take a more sober look on this. This card isn't that OP as everyone else screams, because:

1. It is heavy ( you might be already dead on turn 7 vs. aggro decks)

 7 mana on turn 7? I hope you meant "turn 4"!

 When I last saw this card mana-cost was 7, not 4.

I heard this card will get nerfed when the next expansion hits...

WTF all this Malygos hype is bullshit. If you all think that druid will be best class then it's straight counter to any maly deck because it's by far the best armor class in the game. How much damage can you do with maly druid ? 32? 40? Even 50 is not enough by far. Togwaggle + azalina deck is so much easier to play. Fatigue is way more powerful wincondition than burst and now you need only one proc on one of these two cards to have a full combo. Not to mention that any rise of maly decks will lead meta to baku warriors having fun with 100% winrate.

 Source ?

 I see a lot of people in hearthpwn are still confused like saying that "7 mana=turn 7": card wont see play bc it's too slow. Dudes, for droods, 7 mana is like turn 3-4. The class has everything it needs: stall/armor/draw/ramp/finisher.

Druid's Legendary Spell isn't even revealed yet and this class gets the bonkers already.

All in all, it's a powerful card, but nearly not as OP as crowd tends to scream right now. Remember Lady in White and all the hype train that was here right after her announcement? Did she see any play in T1-T2 decks after WW released? This might be a similar case.

Lady in White was a totally different case because she couldn't be tutored and any deck centered around her just doesn't work if you don't draw her. You may even check the comments in that thread, I made a point about that before the WW release.

This card is different because it's possible to tutor it out of your deck along with the minion(s) that you want its effect to land on. It's going to be super consistent.

This really is a fascinating card reveal season. It seems inevitable that druid is going to be insanely OP with all the new cards it's getting, and yet these cards have all been subject to playtesting and balancing cycles, right? So what are we all missing??

Either this is going to be the most inaccurately reviewed set of cards in the history of the game, or the most imbalanced meta in the history of the game. But which????
