This isn't strong enough to be played at 10 mana. At 10 you need either an insane comeback effect or something that wins you the control matchup, and this is neither.
The only way this could be played is if you can reduce its cost or have multiple copies for more burst.
It's actually already both of those things assuming you already have one in hand + an 8/9 and some damage to face! The fact that it's a warlock card almost garauntess that you will have the "insance comback card" or "something that wins you the control matchup" in hand by turn 10.
I think outside of a combo that I'm not aware of, it's not going to be an OTK card (in standard), but it doesn't need to be. It's basically a free 8/9 and some face damage for the cost of 1 card that cant be used till turn 10. I'm not saying that last bit is irrelevant, but it feels like warlock will find a way to make it work. For example, with Wheel of DEATH!!! it changes the card from a "do nothing" to deal with an 8/9 and 8 face damage.
It becomes more effective if you can cheat it out earlier somehow.
EDIT: devs confirmed it's just written terribly nvm
I just had a dumb idea. Build a warlock deck with only two creatures in it. That being tavern keeper and this guy. Play tavern keeper and choose to recruit a minion and get two copies. You get the piggy, and 2 copies. Play piggy on turn 10, then play a second piggy, then a third, 20 damage
there's no card called tavern keeper. Were thinking of Bob the Bartender and then you chose "Find a Triple" to duplicate Agamaggan?
WTF - my rankings goes down because I ask questions to Orhoz25's suggestion. He was vague and I asked for clarifications. WTF do I get downvoted for clarifying Orhoz25. I'm doing a service. Shouldn't people downvote his idea. and not my question???? WTF is wrong with people. Why the downvotes?
Wow that signature is incredible. Hope i pull it!
trash. 0-9 winrate. with this card.
This feels like it will be banned!
Porco dio!
In Standard: If you're lucky Puppetmaster Dorian or Soul Searching (a tourist card) can get you an extra copy of Agamaggan.
You don't have to be lucky if you just use Rotheart Dryad.
Just remember to play your 1 mana copy first then your 10 mana cost one.
....oops
Technically no, because Discover always gives you Neutral cards or cards from your own class, unless is specified, so only can Discover Agamaggan if you play it on Warlock, cause is a Warlock card.
Also I'm pretty sure that Double Battlecry wouldn't aply to this card, cause you can't stack this effect. Your card is not going to Cost twice, so is not going to deal double damage, and is not going to make that your next two cards cost Health cause Battlecries simply dosn't work that way. It would be "Your next card costs your opponent's Health" and on top of that "Your next card costs your opponent's Health", so no matter how many times you trigger the effect, is always going to be "Your next card costs your opponent's Health"
But every class can potentially get it with Malorne. What's what the card does indeed.
I got you all.

Are you hoping Bonelord Frostwhisper makes Glinda Crowskin free to then cast Agamaggan multiple times? Best of luck!

lol 30k
yeah, some of the people here downvote stuff for the dumbest reasons. Idk why they decided to use this interaction. I can't stand control warlock decks, but let em have this! Let them kill people with this card and have their fun. Such a dumb interaction. if you have less than 10 hp, they should be able to kill you. I probably won't ever play the deck that this guy goes in, but Id give people permission to abuse that. I'm just wondering if it works like The Azerite Snake and the opponent's life total cap gets permanently reduced.
Because Regis is operating on outdated information - he pinned a comment highlighting that the devs already turned around on reddit and said that overkilling the opponent *would* work.
