I love this card already and I'm especially hyped for Shaman! Looks like Blizzard is determined to make shaman a competitive option. They REALLY messed up on the class, so they have some serious correcting to do.
yeah, it's not the new dr boom, i think people are overlooking the insanely poor stats it has, it's like people think aggro will not be in the game, you usually don't have time to be playing a 6\3 on turn 6 that doesn't do anything that turn. but we'll see, it seems to me more like a troggzor than a dr. boom, people thought it was gonna be an auto include in every controlish deck and it doesn't see any play.
This doesn't really seem as good as people are making it out to be. It has horrible topdeck value. This is a legendary, so you can only have 1. If we assume that you'd always mulligan away this card, and that you see a minimum of 9 cards by turn 6, there's a 30% chance you have this card in hand by then. It's actually a little lower, since it's less likely to be in your starting hand because of mulligans.
You'd want something with lots of draw like Control Warrior, as people mentioned. I have a distinct feeling that deck will be the only one that uses this card. It doesn't really blow away control priest unless you consider auchenai. It's kindof dangerous for priest to play anything that doesn't actively prevent face damage on turn 6 though. Let's hope the meta gets shaken up enough.
Powerful effect on a crap body. At least it doesn't die to Big Game Hunter though it does to many 2 drop spells like Darkbomb, Frostbolt, and Quick Shot [/card]just to name a few of them. I don't know if 6/3 for 6 is viable even if its battlecry is this strong. Wish I could say it would be amongst the best the[card] Dr. Boom of the expansion but alas I can't.
Just like I thought it would be. Still is better than the randomness we now have. Imagine combine this improvement with the new card revealed that allows you to use your hero power twice.
Oh my opponent has a massive board. Spell Totem into Spell Totem into Lightning Storm You didn't think I could Flamestrike you because I'm a Shaman? Well Sorry you just got Flamestriked turn 7.
Because Warriors totally need more armor, and Priests totally need more healing...
Way to break the game, Blizz.
I MUST open on day one!!!!
RIP yogg-saron good things don't last forever :(

Shamans are now able to stack their totems (summon a totem that is already on the board) with this better Hero Power. Source: https://twitter.com/CM_Whirthun/status/624274323877044227
And you will only be able to choose from the four basic Hero Power totems.

No respect for Jaraxxus and Ragnorous :/
But here is my idea anyway
I wish it was a 3/6 to be playable D:
I'm wondering how this works with Shadowform and also its 2nd form
I don't know what you're smoking. It's absolutely useless in Rogue and very strong in Warrior. Not that good in Pally either.

I think I like it best for Druid.
1 - Get it out quickly.
2 - By my eye it's the best balance of all the inproved powers. Need removal, ok. Need healing, ok. Gives some more control to the deck.
I won't be terribly surprised to see it nerfed to something like Druid: You may attack 2x. (same effect, but, you take more damage hitting creatures)

haha amazing :D :D

dat Recombobulator value doe
yeah, thought so too.
and its NOT touched, neither ragnaros
Imagine playing this card using Paladin while having Silver Hand Regent on your board! So many Silver Hand Recruit!
Not sold on it at all. Might be good on one or two classes but for the rest will be garbage.
Why does Blizzard always create an amazing card then gives it ridiculous drawbacks?
Like Majordomo, Mimiron's Head, and now this card. Come on!!!
And then boring but OP effects like Emperor and Loatheb get zero drawbacks...
Tank up like a beast, aiming for 80 armor warrior.
Can't wait to see the golden version of those Hero Powers !
