will be great in the new zoo deck. kind of like a miracle zoo or something with the way you could snowball this guy. very risk/reward and a great way of hammering home the whole "health is a resource" thing for warlocks.
On the one hand, a problem with this card is that by the time you can get it to an interesting level, playing a 3/5 or a 6/5 vanilla minion just doesn't cut it.
On the other hand, if you look at some of the combos, it isn't all THAT bad:
5 mana 3/5 - draw a card (sounds like Azure Drake)

this card can be and will probably be very good in zoo, it has amazing synergy with another new card Crystallizer, not to mention kobold librarian, flame imp, vulgar homunculus plus many many more, even just tapping and then playing this wouldn't be the worst.

Rumors are carried by haters, spread by fools, and accepted by idiots.
nope i think this card is just bad. 5 mana 3/5 or 4 mana 3/5
You imply that the 1 or 2 mana used to damage yourself is solely for upgrading the minion. Usually, you'll be playing those cards or tapping anyway, so the upgrade is "free". Where you are right is that it cannot be played on curve for 3 mana (well you can, but that's a horrible play)
My issue is that I don't think the upgrade is easy or flexible enough, and that not enough self-damage cards exist to make this worth including in your deck, not to mention this is horrible to play on curve.

All these demons damn, demonlock will be a thing for sure
OK this is interesting. Kamikazilock will be the first deck i try.

Not zoo really, all these cards push for a midrangy demonlock on buffs.
Seems like a sidegrade to Duskbat. Better in some metas, worse in others.
Formerly Sneeds. Twitch merge locked me out of my old account :(
Sweet card. It's a bad card from the DK, but in a mid-range deck this can see play. Darkshire Councilman is a better card in wild though.

love these new cards.
It will be super easy to enable it with Crystallizer, Spirit Bomb, Flame Imp, Vulgar Homunculus and Kobold Librarian. The deck is going to be super consistent.
Don't sleep on this. It has insane synergy with Crystallizer

has potential to be nuts, but I think thats less common that you would expect. That being said there are some big self-damaging cards this time.
Remove your opponent's 4 or 5 drop with Spirit Bomb, then play a 5/5 on turn 5? Seems amazing.
Unpopular opinion: Rogue is OP

5 mana 3/5 - draw a card (sounds like Azure Drake)
5 mana 3/5 + 2/4 taunt (with Vulgar Homunculus) - better Saronite Chain Gang or Kara Kazham!
7 mana, summon a 6/5 and a 5/6 (with Pit Lord)
9 mana, deal 5 damage to everything, summon a 6/5 (with Felfire Potion)
I dunno, value is there I guess. Could see play, could not. Cool card, though.
Or 4 mana 1/3 and 6/5

Seems potentially strong in Zoo but the fact that you can’t play it on 3 might ruin it.
Yet another card with weird pixel art - what is going on, did they hire new artists?

A 3 drop that can never be played on turn 3, I don't know. It has cool synergy but I don't think it is worth to play Crystallizer just for him.
Useless
