A 3 mana 2/4 + 2 random damage each time you cast a spell, seems really good like a mini Goblin Blastmage

Utterly disgusting, another addition to the scumbag mech mages..
I don't think this will see much play among mech mages. From what I've seen lately, there are only a handful of ways for them to get spare parts, and they almost always save them for antonidas. That, and the glaring point that this card has zero mech synergy to replace anything already in a mechmage rushdown deck. (Doesn't work with mechwarper)
I'd like to see this minion used in a more midrange spell-based deck.
So mage, warlock, warrior, and rogue get their own version of keeper of the grove, while shaman settles for a lava shock. Blizzard, why u no love shaman???

I understand man, but wait for the shaman common card? the "warlock keeper of the grove" is a common, so maybe shaman has a 2/4 coming for him :)

Didn't notice that. So there is hope.
But anything less than "3 mana 2/4 battlecry summon 2 mana tide totems" and shaman is doomed. I hate dealing with 4 hp minions as a shaman.

how many mech mage games even get to antonidas though? its not tied down to a mech mage archetype, certainly, but might see play in the more aggressive (ugh) versions.
seems OP, blizz didn't learn from Goblin Blastmage at all.

so now getting coin is an even bigger advantage for mage....great. I guess blizzard was sick of games being decided by a figurative coin flip, now they want games literally being decided by a coin flip.
I have a feeling that this looks much better than it actually is, and in practice it might be slightly underwhelming. Mage's spammable spells aren't great value, especially on turn 3+ so to make this work you will either have to hold it in your hand to combo on a later turn, or just hope that this sticks on turn 3 so you can use your next turn's mana to snowball using things like Frostbolt, Unstable Portal, maybe some Spare Parts, or even the Coin. In a deck like that you will most likely be using Mana Wyrm and Sorcerer's Apprentice, so it might create some awkward situations if you blow your spells too early.
This minion turns every spell into a mini Arcane Missiles. You get two out together and it turns every spell into a Goblin Blastmage proc. This minion seems exceptional. I'd rank it probably a bit higher than Knife Juggler and way higher than the priest's Shadow Boxer. We might even see cards like Arcane Missiles make a comeback in constructed with this guy since you get 5 missiles for 1 mana. I like him. He seems to have a lot of potential.

Influenced by spell damage?
Well this is interesting ^^ Might be a workhorse in some upcoming mech or tempo mage builds, what with all the spell flinging they do. I like it.
this guy has some scary potential.. and the worst thing is it is solid in spare parts (mech) deck
at the same time good anti aggro card
Time is money, friend.

new Goblin Blastmage, just imagine this on turn 3 + Coin + [insert Spare Part here], hehe

Flamewaker + spare parts in MechMage
Blizzard...pls

Good against Aggro. Not good against control.
If your cabal can only steal this card on turn 6, u have bigger problems in your hands.

Some crazy potential with this guy, especially with The Coin. I think he's really good.
This card will fit nicely into my freezer burn deck.

Please play this when I play Imp Gang Boss ;)
