One of the rewards for beating Proffesor pruticide?
Im glad Stealth synergy got ditched in favor of this. It definitely fits the Rogue identity and it's totally a tier 1 card :D
You might be glad stealth was pushed enough to have a choice of stealth minions to cast this on reliably. Jade Swarmer is looking like a great target to me.
A moment of silence for all the other classes in arena. Why on earth is this a common and not a rare?
Thinking about it, Baron Geddon + Plague Scientist is a busted clear for 10 mana!
I don't think it works like this. Would be cool though
Why not? It works with Pyromancer + Adaptation poisonous

They just reduced Vicious fledling in arena, then they release this as a common for rouge. Arena is gonna be soooo fun....
Might be viable in arena but in standard mode it doesn't really seem exciting
i love beefy minions and value plays, this poisonous mechanic is aids to me :\
Not great on it's own. Might be good with some specific combos (Wild Pyromancer, for example), but I'm not sure it's good enough for constructed (control Rogue isn't really a thing and never was). And being a common card from new expansion, it also increases Rogue's power on arena. That's what we need for one of the most broken classes, right?

Being a common i wonder how is gonna affect rogue in arena. Beetween this, vilespine slayer,assassinate and envenom weapon they'll have tons of hard removal. In constructed the idea of using wild pyromancer is not so appealing (2 cards, 5 mana + the cost of the random spell). Rogue is all about tempo, so clearing the board and then leaving it empty is not that great. But i'm optimist for some sort of AoE minions that damages only the opponent board.
Can't agree more. The art is fantastic as well. Can't wait to play it :)
