This card is fine. The other Omega effects seen so far have been pretty insane, this one is just "pretty good." Might be helpful to a Control deck as a 3/4 on curve that doubles as a heal spell late game, but there are probably better cards to play in most cases.
did we find our Bad Card With Great Reviews ?
As an arena player I'd say this is pretty great
As a constructed player, it's trash
If it could be targeted, then pretty good combo would be created with Auchenai Soulpriest
You could put this over Glimmerroot in control priest, maybe? Glimmerroot is really good but this has some uses. It's another card that will probably see a lot of play after rotation. As someone else said, it is godly against Tempo mage. Most of the time if I lose to burn mage it's because of a pyro blast or a barrage of spells for similar damage. You can negate that for 3 mana.
are people really complaining about a 3/3/4 with a powerful battlecry!?!
A 3/4 for three that has a situational battlecry on turn ten.
You draw this before turn ten against aggro, it is bad. If you want a heal with a minion attached, either Shroom Brewer or the echo card would be better, because this probably isn’t healing you until you have already stabilized
You draw this against most combo or a lot of control decks, it is pretty much worthless. They will kill you from 30 health just as easily as 20.
There are some decks this could be powerful against (burn mage, combo priests) and if they are common this could be an important counter.
A 3/4 for 3 mana is never bad, even against agro. In curve is pretty good, and in late game, it's still pretty good, with a good battlecry.
The question is, is there space in some deck? I am not sure.
A 3/4 for three isn’t bad stats in a vacuum, but there are far better options and if you draw this, you aren’t drawing them. The question is if it’s value against other matchups makes up for that, and outside of a very specific meta game I am not seeing it.
A little weak if played before turn 10, above average if played after. Exactly what we expect from an OMEGA card. This one isn't that interesting, but it's ok. Decent card overall, and perfectly balanced.
Weak??? Maybe not broken at all stages in the game but having a 3/4 on turn three is nothing to scoff at and healing you for 10 late game makes this card good enough for constructed.
A 3/4 for three with an effect is about standard.
A straight 3/4 for three wouldn’t see play. So, yeah, this is weak prior to turn ten. Not useless, but weak.
After turn ten it could be good, but how often is that ten heal actually very good? Between aggro decks that kill you long before turn ten and one turn lethal combos, I don’t know if this is worth a deck slot. I would have to consider the echo pumpkin or even Shroom Brewer as both have upsides, especially vs aggro.
What makes this card is the flexibility that it can be used as tempo because of its stats and not going to punish you in the early game like a lot of cards that are meant for control vs control.
Also most combo decks require more then one turn to kill you and use something like alex to set you up for lethal.
And yet we have an even more flexible card that has largely disappeared from play (the echo minion). Yeah, this has some benefit late game, but is far worse from turns four through nine and even after this can only heal face.
priest can heal himself for 40 multiple times. he does not need this late heal. he either dies before either win without any heal
yo, guys, I agree with you, don't know what upset the people about the post :P
Decent tempo on turn 3 and a way to stabilize in late game.
Please! make her say "The Doctor is in", ("Llego la doctora" for the Spanish one) it's all i want
Not bad omega card, but weakest from the three revealed so far. Board impact is much better than heal after which you would die from 40/50 omega card of warlock.
It could be good for Warlock or for classes with few healings like Rouge, Pally, maybe Mage. But with Priest...you have already a lot of healings + hero power. Maybe with Anduin...
