This doesn't look very strong when comparing it to similar cards from the past. Neither The Glass Knight nor C'Thun's Chosen saw that much play, iirc. The power level of cards is generally higher now and the random attack from the token isn't even strictly beneficial. It could easily just suicide itself on a 2/2 or a bigger minion.
Unless Rogue gets some more stealth synergy, I doubt this will see much play.
I'd wager this is a fairly accurate prediction. I could also see Scion remaining at 3 mana, but being 2/1 instead and the Galakrond storms simply being capped at 6/6 instead of 8/8. Also, maybe Dragon's Pack getting +2/2 instead of +3/3.
It's an interesting move to just randomly make Sylvanas, probably one of the most prominent and beloved characters in WoW lore, available as a hunter hero, without really drawing much attention to it. Meanwhile, this creepy-ass tree gets a whole special bundle and stuff.
Finally that Cult Apothecary synergy we've all been waiting for.
On a more serious note, though. Three 1-cost minions will usually have a combined attack of 4 or 5, essentially making this a 3/4 or 3/5. So, unless your opponent already had a board and you were planning on using an AoE anyway, it doesn't seem very good.
So it was fine for over five years, but now suddenly a bit of blood and some cleavage is just too much? I wonder what will be next to get censored. No skin below the neck showing? Maybe no weapons or violence allowed in card art or names?
This is ridicolous. Just add an option in the game to hide "mature" stuff.

Nice. The lifesteal animation especially felt like it took forever.

With RNGsus on your side that's a board full of 8/8s and a hand full of dragons!

No.

It would have been cool to reveal and give us a human and an orc from the upcoming expansion, but this is fine too, I guess.

How is spending 4 mana in order to get one extra random minion powerful?

Looks like Mayor Noggenfogger and Ivory Knight had a baby. :3

Or they could just play something with 3 or more attack and it's just a 2/3. Combined with PW: Shield this card could be pretty spooky though.

Sounds good, but it's just going to be a 2 mana 2/3 99% of the time.

Obviously they're piRATes. Sorry, I just had to.
