If you remember pre-nerf yogg then you know not to underestimate this card.
It's not great on average but it is a nice yolo "Oh shit" button the ability to come back from a lost game even with bad odds is surprisingly valuable.
Even if you don't include it in your deck, there's Kalecgos (which would basically act as a pseudo pre-nerf Yogg) and given that you're guaranteed 10 random spells I think this card will definitely see play. The recently revealed Tortollan Pilgrim is a nice addition in case you'd run just a few high-cost spells such as Power of Creation, Luna's Pocket Galaxy and this one. The original Conjurer/Dragon Mage could include it, even though it would be somewhat risky coupled with Book of Specters.
The difference is that this can't be stopped, silenced, hexed, polymorphed or killed like Yogg, so it doesn't stop until it casts all the 10 spells, interesting !!! I Must find a way to make more copies of this spell =P

Not to pick on you -- you're definitely not the only one to express such thoughts -- but ...
When played correctly, pre-nerf Yogg was great on average, and it was not a YOLO or "oh shit" button.
There were very specific board states that were more likely to lead to positive outcomes with Yogg-Saron, and those who didn't understand that just saw it as a big chaotic light show that ended in the Yogg player winning, hence the huge amount of salty anger due to a mistaken belief that "you shouldn't have won."
In fact, you played a 10-mana card that required a certain amount of preparation and that had a high probability of winning the game when played at the right time. So yes, you should have won. The times you didn't win were the outliers, and the opponent should have felt lucky if they managed to escape their doom. it wasn't any more of a coin toss than drawing your Hero card early or discovering a Pyroblast.

you can still cast scroll of wonders then draw the scroll of wonders trough the puzzle. then the scroll cast a new puzzle. while also getting more scrolls and that draws more cards while drawing the scrolls it will cast another puzzle.
in the end all the spells did nothing cuz it ended up destroying the board but the enemy had to wait that long his turn was ended before he could start it and u can start over again
Have a single one in my Highlander Mage deck and it's absolutely crazy.
Out of the four times I've played it, it prevented me from losing the game three times. The one time I lost was against bomb/taunt warrior which is a hard counter to my deck. It also had 3x Armagedillo, so I don't feel too bad about that one.
I was behind with 4 health against 22 from a Quest Rogue.
He had a board full with low health minions and a 22/20 Edwin VanCleef.
It played an AOE followed by a Deadly Shot and it played a Mass Resurrection giving me a next-turn-kill after he left me at 1 health.
This card will be nerfed to 11 mana. I'm calling it.
So far I've only come across another player playing it once so far. He killed himself. The End. XD
It was fun to watch though! ;-)
Opponent (quest druid) have a massive board and my is empty, one card in my hand (magic trick), I will concede after using the hero power and get one of this card, played, in the end of the turn have 6 cards in hand, 1 secret, 2 minions and my opponent with empty board.
Right before he ended his 13 hour ass long stream Thijs advanced from rank 1 to legend today by identifying the loot in one of his puzzle boxes. A few seconds later a random Pyroblast crashed into the opponents face. End of story.
Yup. This card is such complete bullshit. I've lost to every mage who has played this, the most recent cast Academic Espoinage when he was 2 cards away from fatigue. There's a reason Yogg-Saron was nerfed, and now as this card isn't a minion that doesn't even work.
It can't cast itself.
Correct, but it can cast Deck of Wonders, which in turn can cast Puzzle Box of Yogg-Saron...
Lol! :-)
love itttt

Love this so far, going to put 2x Puzzle Box of Yogg-Saron on my Casino Yogg mage :D .
It's like a pre-nerf Yogg-Saron, Hope's End but with limited number of spells.
The difference is that this can't be stopped, silenced, hexed, polymorphed or killed like Yogg, so it doesn't stop until it casts all the 10 spells, interesting !!! I Must find a way to make more copies of this spell =P

no, THIS IS SPARTAAAAA !!
That should be on the Card text. Really Blizz get a new card text dude because your current one is inconsistent AF.
you can still cast scroll of wonders then draw the scroll of wonders trough the puzzle. then the scroll cast a new puzzle. while also getting more scrolls and that draws more cards while drawing the scrolls it will cast another puzzle.

Defiantly playable at least with many options to cheat it out with Kalecgos, Tortollan Pilgrim or Naga Sand Witch.
Is this completes the quest? If so, will be great to include quest into Naga big spell mage
Will be busted, as always.

Yogg was very kind this time. ^^

Can't stand this card.
