Best when played T3 with a coin and T2 Wild Growth. Only punish that I can think of is Priest dropping something big and hitting this with SW:Pain.
Everyone else will have to either blow removal on it as their free card, meaning you just traded your T3 and a 5 drop for your opponent's Siphon or Twisting or Poly. For a ramp druid, that's not that bad of a trade. A 5 mana Geist or Gnomeferatu that hits removal in hand isn't so bad as a ramp druid.
If they don't have removal (and T4, not everyone does unless you're mulliganing for it) they have to try to use their free card to get as much value as possible, which is unlikely to challenge the druid's value out of it, this close to the mulligan and seeing as the Druid's deck is built bigger.
This is Voidlord 2.0 (the discussion, not the card). On curve it isn't much, but cheat it out and suddenly it becomes much more of an issue.
problem is you don't have wildgrowth and this card in your opening hand very often so playing it as a curve minion is more than dodgy.
DUSTfallen Aviana LUL
I usually love crazy high risk meme cards, both Emeriss and Temporus i think are great additions that can provide some sick combo highlights (and maybe some new archetype in the future), but this is so bad it's not even fun, what a waste of a class legendary slot.
Nice as a Master Oakheart pull, but inconsistent.
It's better when pulled from oakheart then when played by itself because no matter what you won't get the cost reduction immediately. At least when you get it from master oakheart you'll have 3 other minions when she gets removed for free
It puts a tremendous amount of pressure on the opponent. They likely have to use the free spell as removal on Aviana or risk a free turn 10 UI. Maybe Oakheart pulls a crypt lord and Ixlid with Aviana?
Now I'm not saying this is meta defining. It's not. But it could be a lot of fun, if that's what you're into.
You're basically saying then that you'd never play this card. No matter how you do it, unless it's somehow pulled from your hand or deck on your opponent's turn, like with a Deathlord effect, your opponent will always gain the benefit first. That's why a lot of people are saying it's bad, so you aren't alone in your assessment.
DUSTwood LUL
this card is trash, just like Temporus
Temporus is way better actually. At least he works against heavy control decks. This just gives your opponent a free card of their choice and theng ets removed iimmediately 99% of the time
It's not like Temporus, any deck can kill the opponent in 2 turns but just 1 free minion? that's only very specific decks. And this card clearly goes in an OTK deck!
I suppose you wouldn't want to justify that with an explanation...
Rotating out
You could cheat it out on your opponent's turn with a deathrattle to set up for something but even then it would take 3 cards and i can't think of anything that would be worth that. Maybe with Rush, charge or taunt it could have some positive impact for you when you play it instead just giving your opponent a free card.
Repeat character?
Aviana
Its a rework of Aviana
Ah I see, Though they dont seem comparable other than by name and art is why even though I own Aviana, I couldn't compare them.
