What do you think? Yes or no and why?

First I thought it was a meme card but this card can be crazy, it convinced me today it is a top tech card and I will definately include it in more decks:

For those who do not know above is a druid deck with the Linecracker + BEEEES!!!×2 + Earthen Scales×2 combo giving druid 200+ armor so it can win by fatigue.

Being a neutral card, I can definitely see many applications for this. Maybe not always game winning, but still worth the cost.

By the way, I haven't used him yet, do you get to attack immediately with the minion that comes to your side, or is it asleep? I feel like that druid wasn't necessarily dead unless you were about to hit him for 580 damage in that same turn...

Aside its role in recent chessy OTK decks, I think any slow control deck can include 2 Doomsayer and a Silas now. Doomsayer always an exellent anti aggro card while Silas can act as a 7 mana mind control on its own. And in late game we can combine them together for a 9 mana fullboard clear.

Well, the card has its uses, especially vs resurrect priest, where you can use it to "pollute" their res pool.

I think it fits in any control-ish deck that has tokens. It's a cheaper mind control with a body in that situation. I put it in quest shaman, where I can give two lackeys and get two big bodies in return. 

Fits well in the current wild meta. I face a lot of cubelock and big decks. Besides, most people don't play around it yet so you can easily get yourself a free Enhanced Dreadlord.

I think it is a great fit for highlander decks, but probably nothing more than that.

The card is good like others said with doomsayer. I have had fun with it. I wont say one of the best, but it is definitely one of the most interesting tech cards. Makes you think about positioning sometimes as that has mostly been a lost art.

Side note that druid should put Mecha'thun in the deck. I sometimes just pull out that deck for fun occasionally but I run Mecha'thun as an alternative win condition as some combo decks still can beat the armor.

 Great idea, I will try that out!!

I had a game earlier where Quest Shaman Silas could pick direction twice.

Now I just had another game where it picked a second random direction automaticly , so the enemies basicly moved back and forth and stayed in the same place. 

Now, I don't know if the fact that I moved Silas himself to the opponent's board, that caused the second Shaman Quest battlecry to Randomize in that case.

 I need to try it more often.

I have stolen 2 minions in the same direction in a game a few days ago where Silas stayed on my side of the board, and the direction could be chosen twice , 2 other minions moved to the opponent's board.

This particular other case where the second rotation was random, very likely was caused because Silas moved to the opponent's side, opponent had 3 minions, I had just Silas on board so he was the one that rotated first.
