In wild you can use Treachery on this card to mill your opponent. Brutal treachery to pull off as you can't easily drop it, give it to your opponent, and destroy it in the same turn.
Ok but why go through all that trouble when Fel Reaver exists and is a million times easier to abuse and better at the job?

Too slow for aggro, overdraws in midrange and control.
That card is meta defining and will be run in every aggro deck as a late game refill. It's way better than divine favor!
If an aggro deck had to take until turn 8+ to kill an opponent, where most of them would be able to stabilize unless they drew really awfully, that deck is either a really bad aggro deck, or not an aggro deck at all
Octosari still comes off as a card that have no immediate impact on the board without any synergy, and its beneficial effect can also be turned against its user. Drawing 8 cards doesn't really matter if I can kill an opponent with less, and instead build a deck with enough reach so that I'll never actually need 8 cards.
I can see myself running a meme deck, trying to get this out on a board where it doesn't die before my next turn, then playing Deathwing so you don't overdraw with the 8 cards.
We will find out very soon, but don't be surprised if this gets run in every aggro deck(except for wild odd decks) and decides games on it's own. Aggro decks have run late game before when it was OP, remember Dr. Boom? Pre nerf call of the wild for hunter? Some zoolocks still run Rafaam! The biggest problem with aggro is running out of gas, this 8 drop turns a lost game into a chance to still win!

I don't want this card, if I get it day 1 I might just not play for 8 days.
in big hunter with Flark's Boom-Zooka maybe (or maybe not)
This + Play Dead in hunter
If you get this down to a 1/1 for 1 with Anka in Rogue it enables some potentially strong combos eg Shadow of Death, Academic Espionage
Don't forget about Myra herself and the new Anka

Looks like a meme to me. Very slow and will often burn your cards. I'd hate to open this in one of my packs.

Oh ... now i now the legendary I will open :) awesome Kappa
I wont craft this, but if I open it, I will try it in Astral Communion druid.
I rather see a 6 mana 10/6 deathrattle draw 5 cards.
Divine favor was run to draw as many as 8 cards vs. control, this is unconditional 8 if not silenced.

whe you play zoolock and it`s 8-10 if you draw this card its almost autowin
Lol no. Divine Favor is 3 Mana and immediate.
This is 8 Mana and a Deathrattle. Which aggro deck runs 8-drops? 5 Mana is considered very expensive for Aggro cards.
Comparing this to Divine Favor, one of the most powerful cards in the game, just doesn't add up.

MIGHT BE OK IN ARENA
Could see this as being the "bomb" finisher to most aggro decks, like how Lich King was in some tempo rogue lists.
yeah much needed nerf to mage ^^
