Decent but not great. Synergises with the new Legendary minion.

Different from most of the community, I thought that card can be useful.
This is not for copying minions like Faceless Manipulator. This is for making a good body for good effects on lower bodies. Use 1-2 cost minion with nice effect and copy it with 5/5 stats like 5/5 Northshire Cleric.
Ok, not a great play but it is not for as you called like. Faceless Manipulator is for copying Buffed minions, Big minions etc.
It isn't mine either, but in my language that's quite an offensive mistake.
God, please tell us, don’t we already have Faceless Manipulator, making this card absolutely useless for priest ?
Great. The whole Boomsday Priest meta is gonna be flooded with Valen-Mind Blast decks. Aren't the existing OTK decks "uninteractive" enough as it is?
Why would you play this in a Velen Mind-Blast deck when Vivid Nightmare and Miragle Caller can duplicate key minions for two mana cheaper?
And what is different between this and Faceless Manipulator which we have now. For Velen Priest I mean. As much as Faceless Manipulator play their, so will do this spell.
People are reacting like like we never had a clone mechanic until now or this is cheaper than Faceless Manipulator.
This card isn't making any sense in my eyes….
It can only be really useful in big priest but even then.. it's strictly worse than the resurrect cards
Why print this card, why ? At least give it the faceless effect into a spell.. then I can understand
Power Word: refrigerator
That's quite the redundancy you got there.
Oh... Didn't notice that. Thanks for pointing it out, English isn't my main language so I appreciate it.
This power word is the least power word like card we've ever had.
And now Faceless Manipulator will get into hall of fame?
Its not insane with eggs. Its a 5-mana Cairne basicly, but you have to have an egg out.
Uhm... Isnt just Faceless Manipulator better?
I mean, I guess you can use it on low cost high value minions to get a better copy, and it IS a spell,
but Faceless Manipulator can target enemy minons too...
combo card
Both this and Vivid Nightmare work with the new legendary to create two copies that will resummon themselves. Is this a win condition? No. But it does create a strong board presence that's hard to deal with, which control priest has long struggled with. This isn't part of an otk, but it is a good control tool. Nightmare is probably overall better, but it's redundancy.
It took me a while but I thought of an actual reason you might play this over a Faceless Manipulator . Cuz you can play a copy minion card and not get it pulled by Shadow Essence or Barnes in Wild and you can pull from Shadow Visions I guess (if that is even an upside I'm not actually sure cuz it can dilute your board clears/resurrects). Oh and you can play it to get a buffed copy of a minion if that will ever be relevant.
okay blizzard... we got deathrattle synergy... but what about a win condition?
