tried it on my control mage , it give you at least to decide if your going defensive or offensive in mid game , in late game usefull as well for defensive side .
This is a nice way for Even Mage to get a secret or two during the game. They lose access entirely otherwise.
Well having even more Ice Blocks in standart would be extremely cancerous.
Only Mage secrets or any secrets? Text says only secret...
Discover is class only, so it doesn't need to say Mage Secrets.
Most importantly, this is itself a minion and not a secret, and requires (and in fact plays well with) no secrets in the deck. They're pushing zoo mage pretty hard!
This card seems like greatly overestimated. The fact that it discovers a secret brings it up from being bad, to being potentially playable imo. The 2/2 body is next to inconsequential when it comes down on turn 4 at the earliest and secrets aren't usually that good on their own. I can't remember a time when you would put secrets in your deck when there wasn't a card that would thin it from your deck like arcanologist or mad scientist, unless of course we're talking about ice block/barrier and you're building a freeze mage.
The secrets of this guy can't be thinned, and unless there are way more secret mage cards to be revealed, secret mage is losing much of its power with cards like medivh's valet and kabal secret runner rotating out. Even some secrets are rotating out, so no more potion of polymorph for possessed lackeys or voidlords. Again, the ability to discover secrets might make it playable, as spellbender against paladin can be game-winning, but the lack of consistency might make up for that advantage.
In any case I just can't see a world where this and mad scientist, which thinned your deck and had the same body for half the mana (and on a turn where it could actually trade meaningfully) are comparable cards. I think even against arcanologist it falls way short, this is way more of a tech/filler card than a core one.
This card may be good, but not even close to mad scientist power level
This card is SICK. You are going to see A LOT of this card for sure. The new Mad Scientist exclusive for mage!
Kappa ? Unless they print a crazy good OP secret this expension or an insane secret synergy card, this is never going to be played.
i'm gonna miss eater of secrets in standard. Looks like hunter will maybe be a viable option against mage with flair?
What makes you think there isn't going to be a new card that does something to secrets?? They have to add something for a standard tech.
this card golden animation is epic
Ben, stop ruining wild please... We had plenty of time to experience how horrible it is to play vs exodia / freeze mage. Now you're making it easier to discover more Ice Blocks with Arcane Keysmith, and draw combo pieces with Witchwood Piper.
Ffs.
Why not buff secret mage further with this overpowered crazy card? What's next a 1 mana 3/3 paladin class murloc?
Am I missing something? They are losing Ice Block to the HOF and Potion of Polymorph.
This is a bad card. This is FAR from being overpowered. It will see the same amount of experimentation paladin's spellstone did, and will not be played after.
Meanwhile, in Wild format...
"Fuck, i ve killed you 6 times, why the hell you are still alive???"
"Well played"
*Pyroblast*
Nooooo I'm sick of mage secrets
Overpowered
