I like that this demon support card is actually a demon. A lot of them aren't, and a few of those shouldn't be, but it's nice to have a few which actually are demons.
A lot of folks are saying "Prince Keleseth is better" which is kinda true, but Prince Keleseth is only better if 1} your deck doesn't have any 2-drops and 2} you actually draw him. This seems like it could make for a really consistent deck with actual 2-drops. Maybe that's better, maybe it's not, but it's a valid direction to test.
Zoo doesn't run that many demons atm (although that could change depending on what we get here)
Right now the Heal zoo builds are mostly about snowballing early by dumping your hand. I also don't think Prince Kelesethis worth giving up for this, although it could create interesting decks with Vulgar Homunculus and Demonfire.
If only it was a battlecry....
Zoo Demonlock comeback? This card is not horrible at all. It can actually be a really nice option in some Zoo decks. Especially in Wild where there are cards such as Imp Gang Boss
If the flavor text isn't "dust!" then I'm gonna be pissed.
Insane for Wild Demonlock. Standard though? Maybe after the next expansion?
Zoo is getting some love
Yeah this is perfect in a KELESETH deck that runs about 6 demons or so...
I know that it will almost never matter, but I really like that this is a demon itself and so procs on the other copy if you draw both
Also it can be discovered by Dark Possession and summoned by Bane of Doom
5/11 Voidlord or 7/9 Doomguard? Seems legit
First I got hyped for Wild Zoolock - then I realized it is a deathrattle and not a battlecry. :/
The fact that it has deathrattle and demon tag... this could be back on the board multiple times especially in wild... However I doubt demons will sit in the hand for long. It could be okay... I think it is slightly out of top tier... I doubt it will see play.
Maybe demon warlock works. Right now it doesn't in standard, and it seems unlikely that this card will make it any more viable.
Post-Prince Keleseth is a different matter entirely, because you can run Vulgar Homunculus alongside it. The card pool for all classes will be totally different, so this may be decent then. Can't see it being played outside budget decks right now though.
Pretty meh, considering that's a deathrattle and only works for demons
Total corruption! Total powerrrrrr!!
Read it in a lady voice
Zoolockgasm. Yes, the comparison to Prince Keleseth exists, but given you can run two of Void Analyst and you do not actually tap that much in Zoolock, mostly relying on board spam from your hand, this is a thing of beauty here. Yes, she is a bad topdeck when you have no hand, but so is Keleseth. Yes, she is better the earlier you play her, but so is Keleseth. You can just run two of her, which is insane. Will have fun trying both versions after the expansion launch and will see how it goes. I am thinking this Analyst is going to be analyzing a high winrate.
Coin + Void Analyst turn 1 into trade + double Flame Imp Turn 2
Ahh, I can already taste the cancer.
Looks like this card was late for Gadgetzan!
It's not for a grimy goon class though.
Yea, but it's a demon, and I don't think demon's are that loyal, but seem to prefer Warlock.
