I only come here to see a bunch of rank 25s reviewing cards. Tome was never good enough to see play outside of quest mage. Mage doesn’t need more value it needs efficient aoes and direct damages or survival abilities.
This is a pretty magical card when combined with deathrattle minions and spell damage. I think creating a new deck type around this card will be a successful venture.
i'm gonna lean out of the window and predict this card will not see any play after week 3. the value upside is irrelevant against aggro and it's super slow. dragons fury is stricly better in any controlish deck that does not run shooting stars.
pretty meh card, voted dust it. feel free quote me on this once the expansion is out.

Cabalist's Tome definitely saw play outside of Quest mage. It probably wouldn't see play now, but it had its uses back in the day.

There is no need to insult people who have a different opinion than you. This is a place to discuss the card, not sling insults.
I would definitely play one of these in Odd BSM.

I would also like to point out this has the possibility of being a very efficient spell, if not a "strong" board wipe.
guys yeah this card might seem bad but it's a 5 cost AOE
it costs 5 not 6 not 4 but 5 now which deck is pushed really hard this expansion hmm ODD mage
I played odd mage, there was a lack of big spells to use dragon's fury.. well now you do have, also with the hero power it makes it easier to get value out of it, with black cat you get your spell damage synergy aswell this card is very good in odd mage!
2 damage aoe is quite potent, again, thanks to the mage hero power it's easier to weaken minions for this card.
also big hand mage would want this to play handsize matter cards! there are always some minions on 1 hp.. if you are playing vs control big hand mage should be favored cause of jaina anyway.
I know 2 to all aoe costed 3 in gadgetzan but if it gets you one card it's even on it's cost to the gadgetzan card.
People are greatly underestimating how good this actually is, it’s probably one of the top 5 cards so far and can create or bring back an old archetype like Casino Mage. Any sort of SP makes this better than Flamestrike by a mile. Spell mage, Reno Mage, etc it will fit into a lot of decks.
Flamestrike has always seen play in Wild and Standard, which means this most definitely will it’s the same mana cost when coupled with Emissary which will fill your hand with spells on top.
This won't be a competitive card right now but it will probably be a top tier clear after the rotation and Dragon's Fury, Meteor, etc rotate out.
The game won't have as much insane value so the random spells will be great then and I don't think the clears will be as strong, so this will probably be top tier AOE.
Wow, that's pretty epic. Does Team 5 assign rarity by rolling dice? Seriously, in other games rarity actually has a correlation with performance of the card.

Judging at the reactions i already saw below, Alot didn't see the cards working correctly. It actually gives you a card per "overkill" so up to 7 with a full board. This can get bonkers at times! For once i like the rng synergy. You can read back at the revealsite
People are forgetting that Cabalist's Tome used to be a thing, and it was used in quite a few decks back when.
This is definitely good, if you get 1 or 2 Spells from it it's great, if you get more or if you use it to play Giants and Tyrants the card becomes insane!
I don't feel like the basic effect without overkill is good, of course, but it is a great card at the right turn that can easily turn the tide of the game.
I agree... It's like a slightly better cabalist tome in most situations

Sorry but that’s what I feel. If you can’t clear the board, what value would it generate ? If the card costs 4 it would be playable. Being 5 mana and 2 damage it’s garbage.

Why do people think this is good? It’s utter garbage.

Team 5 never disappoints when it comes to treating Mage with a touch of random.
Release the Kraken!
I'm gonna try 1 copy of this in Big Spell Mage (over one of the other big AoE's), but it looks like a card that can give a huge amount of Value.

Wow dude, where are your manners? :(
Yay more bullshit spells for Mage
I think it will see play in odd mage because it is a dragons fury enabler

That's incorrect... Up to 14 cards

5 mana to do 1 dmg, to get a random spell. No thanks.
At least it will produce some good meme games.
