This won't see play in constructed. Mage already has so many good cards so I am glad this isn't that good. Honestly I don't know what cards can they give to mage that are better than current cards and aren't OP. Most Mage cards are borderline OP already so mages get ready to get useless cards for at least next few expansions. lol

Terrible card. 5 mana to get rid of a Giant. This card could remove minions like Chromaggus, Kel'thuzad, the opponent's Antonidas, Boulderfist, Doomguards, Deathlord and Doomsayers with ease, but those are the only things that this card can remove in one swoop that neither Fireball nor BGH can.
I also can't think of many cards that can be removed from current mage decks in favor of this one.
To all that say this expansion sucks: remember things like Cobra shot from GvG. Anyway, this card is bad, but you can't honestly tell me that assassinate in a class like mage would be balanced on top of Fireball, Frostbolt, Polymorph, Flamestrike, Explosive Sheep + Ping, and freeze + doomsayer. It's a reasonable removal, but it won't be replacing any mage staples any time soon.
Another useless one... well, seems like they re going to nerf random spell giving cards that way :-D I ll just get dust to create things i need, seems like that expansion is not going to have enough good cards to buy packs and get smth valueable with a high chance.
I guess it's technically better than Shadow Bolt, since you're getting more damage per mana, but ya, pretty bad and really boring (I mean, why choose this card for a stream reveal? aren't you trying to hype people up, not put them to sleep?).
Probably decent in arena, but overall it makes mage worse in arena since this means you'll be seeing fewer Flamestrikes, Polymorphs, Fireballs and Frostbolts. But that's probably a good thing since Mage is OP in arena.
Why is this a card???
and I thought Mage will finally draft less removals in arena... guess not.
Pretty much an Assassinate for Mage.
Never a reason to play this card in constructed, but hey - its more flavor to pop out of all of the random spell cards
I heal people to death
Mage already has Polymorph which is better to deal with minions.
Fair but boring and doesn't fill a niche. Fireball can kill most of the same minions and Polymorph/BGH clears up the rest. Arena worthy and that's it.
I pre ordered and while this is kinda a let down I actually really like the argent horseman guy who was shown
hia.

I am regretting pre-ordering :|

There are 9 minions with more than 8 health. 5 are rarely seen in constructed, 1 is Jaraxxus, and another is Grommash.

Just like Assasinate at some case, and I think it's bad
This was made purely to help dilute Mage's ability in arena. It's so instead of getting good spells they get this dumb shit.
bedh card is bedh. Still 100 + cards to come, chillax, some have to bad, some will be good

THIS XPAC SUCKS UNLIKE GVG WHICH WE GOT OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR TARGET DUMMY AND JUNKBOT AMIRITE
Your friends will abandon you...Your heart will explode...

It looks pretty bad. It is somewhat decent in arena, but even there I would choose fireball over this one any day.
You either die a pimp, or you live long enough to see yourself become the hoe
Guess this is a stealth nerf to mage in arena, less flamestrikes!
However cant imagine why i would use this over poly or second bgh.
Another good thing is, it doesnt buff agro hell it doesnt buff anything for that matter, realy only nerfs Mages Arena....GENIOUS!!!
better than Dragon's Breath ?
