Starting to love this card. As others have said, it's an amazing tech option against OTK decks. Still seeing a decent amount of DK Pallys, and this card has won me every single game. This card stalls games better than Loatheb ever did. I've been running it in a control warlock deck. You can even just play it once you get ahead on board to shutdown the opponent from any big board clears or power swings.

AokiNaptune posted a message on Cursed CastawayPosted in: Cursed CastawayThis is a fairly balanced card; which means it doesn't hold up against the very powerful options of the current standard set.
Best case scenario: Drop it on the board; destroy (or at least damage) and enemy minion and retain a 5-Attack minion.
That way, it would be like a cheaper Firelands Portal that summons a Magma Rager sized Loot Hoarder.
Usual case: Using it as removal + draw a specific card - it becomes like a Rogue's Starfire with immediate combo synergy.
At worst: You could also just drop this on the board as 5/3 with DR: Draw a card; like a slightly bigger but even worse Polluted Hoarder if you need tempo.
Currently it's outclassed by all the very powerful cards from Journey to Un'goro, Knights of the Frozen Throne and Kobolds and Catacombs.
With the standard rotation removing all those cards, we will be left with only the weaker expansions, it would be a completly new meta where cards like this might actually be played.
After that, a deck with Captain Hooktusk might actually be a thing.
Cursed Castaway is a decently sized pirate; alongside with Ticket Scalper and Southsea Captain and whatever other larger pirates they might print you could make a huge tempo swing. -

samuellima91 posted a message on MoorabiPosted in: MoorabiI don't understand why they created the freeze synergy for Shaman in Frozen Throne but never added any new cards to support it in later expansions. Did they really think that what is already available is enough? Or did they just give up on it entirely? Wtf are they thinking?! Such a waste...

Pullaa posted a message on Buying packs with 12000 coins.Posted in: Card DiscussionI would buy all wings for the adventures you haven't yet unlocked (best value for coins) then I would buy 40 packs of rastakhan, and use the rest for ungoro, KAC and/or Frozen throne since witchwood and boomsday weren't that good set wise. Of course if you don't play wild then dont buy the adventures or the older packs but at least in my opinion wild is the game at its best

Incredibly powerful and my favorite card by far, with resurrection effect in the Priest - mind blowing.
