It's going to be pretty minion/beast based without Jades imo. The quest is completed much faster without Jades which is important because the faster it's finished, the more 0 cost minions you have in deck.
Of course it's a good way to otk your opponent ... but noone is talking about the other nice possibility. What I do really like with this card are the other possibilities. Let's imagine the guy has 4 taunts on the board and we have no efficient board clear except one single doomsayer (no frost nova, no flamestrike, etc).
You can play time warp + doomsayer + 3 extra mana (arcane intellect, secret, what ever), pass your turn, the board is clear and you have 10 mana to play anything you want :) I know it's not an OTK combo, but when you are behind on board and enemy player has taunts, it's nice to have an efficient board clear like that. After the board wipe you can play your giant or what ever.
Of course frost nova works too, but so many spells in the late game are able to take care of doomsayer, especially if they had no threats to deal with before: devolve, hex, polymorph, shield slam, etc.
That's what I do like with this card: versatility. I don't want to rely on a combo that got countered by armor and taunts. Freeze mage was countered by armor and it was already painfull to play :) here with all the taunts in the new meta, I'm not sure that playing giant with charge is enough.
Ultimately this is what I believe time warp will be in the higher ranks. Not a gimmicky OTK combo you'll pull off sometimes, but a tempo swing/utility win condition card in a midrange Mage. Tbh, I think Kazakus is done in standard except for maybe Priest. There isn't enough healing to support it now

Not sure if that was the word I was looking for

Impossible, Noggenfogger can only hit all applicable targets. Meteor strictly says it only hits minions.

If this deck becomes out of hand, people will just tech Eater of Secrets
