Exactly. It's not necessarily a downside to have a deck packed with Hucksters, Shredders, Belchers, Jade package, etc. The downside being that you might want to keep the spell count low if you're rollin them bones, which can be cumbersome for Rogue. Either way though, I've had pretty decent success with N'Zoth builds, even in Standard, so this card is a welcome addition, even if it doesn't pan out to be great.
Because we're here
Roll the bones
Why does it happen?
Because it happens
Roll the bone
roll the dice
I like it, but I think Shiv is better ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It's a sometimes draw 1, sometimes draw 2, rarely draw 3, almost never draw 4. It was the exact same thing with Wrathion who saw almost no play. This card is better because you can play it earlier and don't run the risk of clogging your hand. Sometimes against agro you're forced to keep using removal and comboing stuff like si7 just to stay alive and then you run out of cards. This is a more than decent top deck in those situations.
This is better because its cheap spell that draw cards,and miracle likes cheap spells.
Make every other card in your deck a deathrattle. Coin this out and draw 25 cards on turn one. OPOP
Fill your deck with nothing but deathrattles and one copy of this. Turn 1 - Coin + Roll The Bones = Fatigue turn 1. Take that suicide warlock!
Perfect counter to new priest legendary
In order for this card to be decent it needs to draw 2 cards. That means you will need minimum of 20 deathrattles in your deck to have somewhat reasonable chance (~66%) of getting 2 cards.
Great mill card if you have a deathrattle since the minion will always have deathrattle no matter how many times you cast it
Wait, how does this interact with Gadgezan Auctioneer? Does this trigger it multiple times if drawn deathrattle?
Probably yes, because it's cast again.
I assume that the "draw a deathrattle" effect is coded into the card as an interaction (same as Holy Wrath), so it will only trigger again if that card that you draw from this card (not the one from the gadget) has a deathrattle.
low cost, so it could work. The real problem here is the lack of deathrattle cards...I mean, sure, this doesn't need to work all the time but I really don't think there's enouhg deathrattle cards to justify running this. Just get a CUlt MAster instead and be good
But. Rogué has deathrattle minions
A pretty decent card. Great value if you draw 2 cards, insane if you draw 3 or more and just bad but not terrible buying 1 card.
It can trigger the Auctioner more than once.
And is a spell, which is important
I really like this card. Love the NEEDED support for Deathrattle rogue, indeed! Thanks blizz.
