I feel real bad for anyone who gets this trash as free legendary for either the expac or or pre purchase this card completely trash. When memes ruin card game u know they don’t care about making good cards anymore. Feelsbadman
This is the definition of late game
Annoyed I cant delete this post
Oh and this is a bad meme card that I'm pretty sure we will see very few highlights of this working, shouldve been a battlecry.
This card will probably see some play in odd warrior... when he is discovered by Dr. Boom, Mad Genius.
10 is an even card, so you can't play it
Why are you upvoting? I meant he can't play it in his deck, not in game, anyways you can also play it Mage or normal mech Warrior, maybe in Hunter we'll see.
downvoting*
@Zedrom: Discover doesn't effect odd/even decks
If you haven't played against odd paladin, they get Sunkeeper Tarim from Stonehill Defender
Oh my god... it's that what i wrote. God this site is still pure cancer. Nevermind 80 % players of this game are toxic or mentally retarded.... Downvote it if you're one of them.
a lot of people like this card....I don't belong among them....they could at least use something new, not C'thun
Only time you're gonna see this card.
Prediction: The card get's some experimentation but ultimately is too slow, people play it occasionally for lulz but it's nowhere near top tier . . .
. . . A year passes. It's late 2019 and Blizzard is about release the final expansion before 2020, when Boomsday Project rotates out. Mecha'thun has fallen into relative obscurity, but then "The Card" Is revealed. "The Card" isn't good on the surface, but it does one thing very very well, and that's enabling the ultimate Mecha'thun combo. For the next 3 months, Mecha'thun dominates the meta. You either play it or you lose. There's panicking in the streets. No one is safe.
but then the new year begins. Mecha'thun rotates to wild, and is nerfed to hell for good measure. We're finally free.
The trick to getting the deathrattle to work is play it on a turn where opp. set out a doomsayer. LOL good luck emptying your deck and hand on same turn :D Idk how to make it work!
EDIT: what about the TWIG weapon!? Time twig with this card!
Myra draws your deck. Rogues new weapon triggers deathrattles. Fin.
Deathrattle would do nothing. Cthun would still be in play.
If it was a battlecry or a way to kill it in one turn then we could talk business. Oh wait, you can do that only with druid!Not that druid won't have better things to do....
If it was a battlecry it wouldn't trigger cause it would itself be on the battlefield
I think I will love this card
I will definitely try this on warlock.
If it stays alive unsilenced/not transformed for a turn before going fatigue, Cataclysm will be the ultimate win condition.
And I'm pretty sure warlock has a lot of great minions that the opponent want to remove, silence or get it transformed
Flobbidinous Floop FIFY
Hard enough to pull off as a battlecry, borderline impossible as a deathrattle. I don't know if it was for "balance" or to make it just as hard as possible, so players have a challenge. Probably the latter.
There are a few ways to summon it and kill it off in the same turn. My Idea would be Eternal Servitude + Shadow Word: Death in a quest-based priest, that uses this and one other Deathrattle-minion with Shadow Essence and other summon- and resurrection-effects to get the quest done along the way to stay alive. And you still have 3 mana to play whatever leftover spells you have in your hand beforehand.
But seriously... whatever strategy can be conceived, you'll more than likely be dead before you can pull it off. Whatever your opponent is playing, he's getting help from fatigue damage, your turn where you have to play a 10/10, and that you can't have taunts or anything else keeping you alive, when you want to end the game.
I'm sure, one player will eventually make it happen, but it's a terrible card. Cool artwork, cool idea, crazy effect, but about as useful as The Boogeymonster, unless there are obvious synergy cards made just for this to work.
