I wonder what will count as a 1 cost spell, because it would be cool if the minion that makes spells cost 2 more affects this one preventing the battecry, I doubt it, but it will be interesting to learn the interaction.
Card will probably not see much play, but just its existence will hopefully keep the number of jade druids low.
Oh, it'll see play. Control druid is coming. This kills jade, nerfs maricle rogue and preist. The only meta late game deck it doesn't much effect would be mage. It's also not too slow against aggro.
You can't read, I said nerfs. Secondly I said druid. That means likely played turn 4
this will be teked into every one of my priest decks....jade druid destroys me end game and its worth it to have one for late game before they ramp with 12/12 minions lol
YEEES FK U JADE DRUID I HATE U
Not really sure about how healthy this is for the game but at least happy that no more infinite at least too easily
Cards like this aren't healthy.
lol, this is not the end of jade druid, you'll have to draw it and use it before the jades gets too big.
Plus, jade druid starts with 2 jade idols, which means, if this card gets some play in ladder, all we need to do is to save the 2nd jade in hand instead of using it on turn 1. So, i actually believe this card is kinda bad
Read the card again, and read your comment again.
Can you read description of the card before posting?
It removes the Idol in hand as well. Best out is to play both idols for golems. Besides, if this comes down before Auctioneer, the that card becomes stratospherically weaker. This plus a decent body and the ability to have an effect vs Rogue, Control Warrior and Priest make is an exceptionally well-deserved tech card. Not quite Loatheb levels of overpowered (miss you, big guy) but more like good ol' MC Tech back in the pre-standard meta.
I'd simplify this: Can you read?
There is no need that 1000 people come to tell him the same thing in my opinion, we understood
go some were else with that snowflake stuff
I think this card comes very late into the party to influence anything but Jade Idols. I'm seeing people mention that it hits stuff like Secret Paladin etc. but unless you're able to ramp out this card, by turn 6 whatever you wanted to remove has probably been played out anyway.
it's a stupid card, a Crab for Idol, and it had to go into the epic slot... I won't bother running it personally.
I think, it mostly targets Auctioneer. Because a lot of players said, that card is problematic and this kinda helps to get around it.
Meta defining, hard counter to Gazlowe.
At first I thought this was a horrible card... but after looking at all the one mana spells... this is actually a SoB of a card... IF you can get it out early... really hurts evolve shaman, token druid, jade druid, secret paladin (if thats still a thing), priest decks, miracle rogue decks, and even some standard hunter decks. The only class it really doesn't seem to affect is mage. Interesting... actually playable
To be fair, jade druid is an oppressive deck in that it basically prevents a ton of different deck types. This is healthier for the game than a nerf which would basically kill jade druid completely. If you want to play your ultra long mill/control/fatigue deck, this is for you. Otherwise, it's a slow card that will probably never see play outside of niche situations.
and hey, most games are over by turn 6 anyways :(
