As a Traditional Shaman player I see my old combo Al’ Aikir double Rockbiter hit for 18 damage back!
Big minion shaman is coming...
how are people saying this card is bad at worst you get
9 mana
4 12 + 4 12 + 3 3
so 38 stats for 9....
druid combo is only arguably slightly better but with worse spells
even if you dont draw maly it can also be used for lich king, ysera, leroy etc
ideally if you manage to far sight into a good spell it makes it even better
potentially you could
1) elektra into farsight
2) zola/grumble elektra
3) potentially repeat steps 1/2 ((aim to have gotten either 2x lightning bolt, 2x frost shock, 2 x lava burst or even leroy so you can get 3 leroys on a turn so almost 1/3 of deck can be gg if you farsight into it and you have 4 chances)
4) elektra into this spell and end them
5) not to mention that since its elemental you have a 2nd way (fireplume possibly paired with murmuring or just grumble) to reduce its cost and therefore can use at least 2 lightning bolts/frost shock even without farsighting into anything useful.
Is that dwarf of the flask?
It's good because "copy".
Oops. Only play wild, didn't realize that.
Looks like crafting Malygos is one of the highlights of this set.
Would be better to play Stormsurge after getting Maly so you get 2 Bolts for 16 damage, with coin it could even be 32 this way.
The are several problems with that. You might copy Stormsurge with this, with would suck. And Stormsurge only plays the next spell twice, so you'd still only get 19 damage at most that way. Stormsurge into Eureka-maly into Lightning bolt is better
Bad in standard, bad in arena. Only rank 25 players think this is good.
you're gonna get pwned by this card come August my dear rank 25 player friend
Maly + Eureka + double Lightning Bolt + double Frost Shock = 28 damage to the face.
With enough support, this could work in a Malygos Shaman TTK, and maybe even in a Overload Shaman, where you can set an extra Earth Elemental/Snowfury Giant for your spellstone.
"Summon a copy of a random Malygos from your hand" or what Gather Your Party ahould have been (kind of)
Maly Shaman's back baby
This is a rather insightful comment.......and a very strong possibility......that would be sad though as cheating out Maly for big damage is a really fun playstyle.
Ancestor's Call 2.0
Because it doesn't summon one for your opponent.
And way better because you have much more control over which minions are part of the randomization. Also, it is a COPY, so you get to play the original card still. Finally, you don't have the huge downside of playing one of your opponents card too.
For only (2) additional mana; that is a great deal IMO.
So much potential. I love it! The fact that you create a copy could be a big deal too.
