Hello all. Looking here for the hottest takes or your cleverest, most hipster takes or what cards you think are being under-discussed or underrated from the new set - and tell me why. Now that everything has been revealed I have a couple that I think should be more discussed.
I play mostly Wild, and I see this legitimately getting play in plenty of Reno style or disrupt oriented decks. You can almost freeze your opponent out of the game for some turns/slow down their game plan/muck up their hand fairly easily. I have run a lot of Oh My Yogg! in my day, and when it comes to getting random spells (though I know those are cast randomly) it works out for you less than 50% of the time imo not to mention the stifling of other parts of their game.
This card is crazy powerful in handbuff decks. Even if you give this just +2/+2 in hand (which isn't hard) - this becomes a 3 mana 4/4 give a minion on board +4/+4...huh!?
Seems completely broken, to be able to get 3 taunt minions on the board for 2 mana each, and so much value without disrupting your deck. I'm thinking about the beast synergy alongside this as well, it feels insane.

With Holotechnician - Reckless Apprentice comes to mind. Actually a lot of different cards can make this into essentially a Flurgl+Tox combo.
ok gotcha, still strong lol
