A card for expansion in April-May 2018?
i really dont like these recruit cards. not only does it nerf cards like evolve, firelands portal etc which are currently balanced and honestly fun to use. and they will NEVER see play. 5 mana 2/2? if it dosent pull atleast a 5 drop or higher its bad, and if you play this card you auto lose to priest, which is half or more of the meta.
your deck would have to be built with only high value demons or this seems like a risky low tempo play that could result in (at worst) an overcosted vanilla 2/2. I guess the hope with recruit is that everyone tech's weapon removal and doesn't include any silence as others have said this could result in a pendulum effect for the upcoming meta with people switching between silence tech cards and weapon removal tech cards
People will be running silence for sure, look at the Paladin weapon. If you don’t silence it never goes away. Silence and weapon removal will both be huge this expansion.
The recruit keyword is surprisingly expensive at first glance. Im sure this is the result of some testing, and I get how it might be more valuable that it seems intuitively (to me at least). Looking forward to trying it out.
I think this card is awesome - especially in wild.
You can build a just expensive demons deck - maybe a sort of keleseth midrange deck.
especially in wild this is really cool - a good reason to run n'zoth + DK.
This is way better than the weapon b/c you don't have to have the demon in your hand and it gives great cycle on your deck. Everyone's gonna be running oozes - silence might not be the tech of choice and so this is a little safer.
Given how clutch voidcaller is in DK decks this is a great second voidcaller with reno or 4th voidcaller without reno. Although it is interesting to note that this is way way worse than voidcaller - and not a demon, but the effect is key - the biggest problem with voidcaller is that threre aren't enough of him and he occassionally pulls another voidcaller.
This is gonna be positively bonkers with n'zoth - you can run A LOT of high cost demons if you can pull up to 4 of them for free from a 4-5 cost minion.
Tempo loss is still a problem but at least they didn't make it a 1/1.
definatly agree with you, after seeing several recruit cards and feeling they were incredible weak unless you build your deck with all high cost cards like big druid. However, i think they also have some potential in a slow meta where you sacrifice your cheap "demon" cards for your basic minions such as corsair and fire fly. it will be interesting to see what happens with these cards over the course of the next expansions
If this was 4 mana 2/2 + its effect could had seen alot of play..
That's a steep cost for a slow card.
Can the bad meme cards be epics please?
This card is so bad I prefered it was discard themed.
A-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Wow, I'm so surprised, no one expected a card with this text.
This is a really bad card... There are too many low cost demons for this to be even playable...
skip this card
5 mana 2/2 :/
Pretty damn good effect though, imagine just running Dreadlords and Doomguards and other big hitters. Seems like fun, although at 5 mana I think this will be hard to find a slot in much.
Archbishop Benedictus + Potion of Madness
for those who might be confused about this card: It's trash.
Confusion over. You're welcome.
voidcaller is an insane demon - the biggest problem with him is that you can't get him enough. THis solves that problem at a much higher price point.
Obviously you would run voidcaller over this - but if you wanna run reno and krul - 2 voidcallers can be a liability - this solves that problem. The other problem with 2 voidcallers is that you occasionally pull the second voidcaller when you want a bigger guy - this solves that half way because voidcaller can't pull him.
This is very slow, but if your deck only has giant demons this is insane value. DK's best friend is pulling more demons out of the deck and faster.
No-one said you had to run this in zoo.
and how wrong you were
