- You can never have more than one Shadow Reflection in your hand.
- Shadow Reflection leaves your hand at the end of your turn, so it only works on 5 mana cards or less. (Source)
- Effects that invoke Mana Cost reduction will not be copied by Shadow Reflection. (Like Emperor Thaurissan ticks, Preparation, Shadowstep.)
- Remember how Stealth works! If you wish to attack, do attack BEFORE using this Hero card.

So one of two options:
1- You are playing at a different time or rank then I am in which there is more aggro/ slightly more amount of unfavorables
2- *I mean no offense by this* you are playing the deck wrong or misplaying frequently. It's incredibly hard to pilot at top tier levels and takes lots of experience and practice.
I guess there is one other option which is you are incredibly unlucky but that its statistically unlikely.
I like it! :D
Interesting but still waiting for that Lich King neutral legendary card. Guess it will be the last legendary revealed.
I see incoming Malygos decks
Three turn lethal doesn't sound that great in game, where you die on turn 5-6 half the time.
I was pretty excited for the rogue card because I saw all of the other risks with design and I really think they gave rogue something awesome, will it be competitive at 9 mana? not sure, but if it is, rogue will be very good
9 mana is really costly... But it might see play if the meta slows down enough. Which seems to be Blizzard's idea for this expansion, by the way.
So the reason you can't prep or coin is because the card would then turn into prep or coin. This is such a cool ability that rewards planning and decision making.
Just want to make it clear that I'm actually geeking out, not being sarcastic.
I see no reason why you couldn't double coin. Its an innervate that required a set up from a 9 mana card. Granted, at 10 mana you shouldn't start your turn with coin into coin, but if you run this on a miracle shell thats an extra mana. I don't think this card belongs on that deck though.
You coin or prep, play the original spell, then play Shadowy Reflection if you still have enough Mana left to play it for full Mana cost of the last card you played. It continues to transform in your hand like Shifter Zerus but apparently leaves your hand at the end of the turn, so the only way to double cast 10 cost cards is having Naga Sea Witch already on the board.
Shadow Reflection leaves your hand at the end of the turn, so this mechanic only works with 5mana or less cards, no yogg shenanigans possible. Explained by Mike Donais on reddit.
We will have to stick to spell based mage and Simulacrum then, feelsbadman
Too many people are missing the "you can only use 5 mana cost cards or lower" part of the hero power, which they worded very poorly.
I don't think it's worded too poorly, it's more of an implied effect.
It's not that you CAN'T... Under certain circumstances, you should be able to use it. For example:
Once you have Shadow Reflection on your hand, you could Prep + Thistle Tea for 3 mana, your Shadow reflection will be a 6 mana Thisle tea that would be castable for a total of 9 mana.
When Savjz said it wont work with cards that cost more than 5 mana, is only because of your 10 mana restriction (after all: 6+6=12). But there's ways to cheat this restriction.
So if you use it, do you get another in your hand on the same turn?? Or do you only get 1 per turn??
Its on the reveal video. You get one after you draw. No Mass Evis nor Mass Coldblood.
