If used defensively it effectively stops a minion from attacking you for three turns since they can't attack the turn it awakens. With that in mind this card seems very potent.
If you swap their one cost card into a 10 cost card, they can't play it.
Unsure if this works in Standard but I can easily see a Big Paladin reaching semi-competitive levels with this in Wild.
Yes. Aggro doesn't care about that lost card in the slightest since it's an extra card drawn from this minion. Aggro never goes to fatigue anyway, so it never matters.
Anyone else feel like they have silently nerfed Lightfang through discover a tier 5 minion? I don't seem to ever get her as an option anymore.
They would not do that without mentioning it. Stealth nerfs are not a thing.
Think about it -- the ONLY reason for nerfs is to make the players happy by providing a better game experience. But players would definitely be VERY unhappy if they discovered evidence of a stealth nerf. On the other hand, players are always happy with transparency, even if they disagree with a particular nerf.
So from Blizzard's perspective, there is simply nothing to be gained by performing a stealth nerf.
You are right they wouldn't do that - but I just feel like they have adjusted the number cause I used to find her about every second game in the start, but now I think I have been on a 50 game spree without ever discovering her with atleast 2 triples at tier 4 on average, but still getting Brann fairly often so atleast that helps with my strat. I just got my Tinfoil hat on xD

You expect people in these comment sections to actually read the cards they're complaining about? Talk about high expectations!

This is useless for wild secret mage. It's way too slow to be played and the payoff isn't really that good either.

He said it doesn't interact with Genn. Baku turns the hero power into 1 mana +2 attack.

Sounds like a horrible idea to give all the prime versions to the random legendary pool.

It's a horrible move. This card is clearly to be used against combo decks.

Fuck, that might actually work nicely.

So you're saying that you experience RNG? ^_^
