Interesting design. Serious candidate for my craft list.
Synergy with Spirit of the Shark, Necrium Blade and Necrium Vial. Really like it.
Stronk.
Eat "The Darkness" - 22/22?
Will it copy stats like taunt and lifesteal?
If they made the Deathrattle effect Combo instead, this may synergize better with its spirit.
Wouldn't that be a bit too much value?
Yes! I expected the shark to be combo though because of the spirit.
Then it would add 4 minions to your hand. Simply OP
oh nice, ddnt think of that
These simplified texts just don't work anymore. These effects all need clarification. Like, eat a minion from your deck. Is it a random minion? Or can I choose one? What happens to that minion? Will be taken out from my deck or stays? Gain it's stats. Does that mean the shark can be a 1/1 if it eats a 1/1 or it become a 3/3 (I guess it's the later but still). Deathrattle: add it to your hand. Add what? This minion or the minion in my deck? Or the stats?
Since I started playing MTG I wish Hearthstone should up their game with card texts, complexity and clarification.
Most of what you asked is fairly obvious. There will be likely be no credible streamer who misinterprets the card.
1. It is clear you do not choose the minion from your deck, the card would be both way too powerful and the animation wouldnt be pleasant.
2. 'Gaining' stats has a fairly straightforward meaning. If it 'eats' a 1/1 minion it'll become a 3/3. If it became a 1/1 theyd say 'copy its stats' rather than gain.
3. The 'eat' premise removes the card from your deck, otherwise the card would read something like 'Battlecry: Gain the stats of a minion from your deck ... Deathrattle: Add it to your hand'
Just to add on.
In HS the only way are you able to choose something in your deck is with the discover mechanic. since it does not say Discover then it implies random.
Since this is an expansion it is already understood that you know what Hearthstone is. The newbie explanation mechanic is for the classic and basic set.
MTG started out as a physical card game so they had to explain everything in detail for people to not misinterpret. HS is more casual and since it virtual they can get away with it.
Or you could just watch the video
Wild Big Rogue support?
At first doenst look so great but let's give it a try
Big minion Deathrattle Rogue is already a thing ( at least for me), and you dont even need Umbra.
anws, I can see this working on this kind of deck, but nothing special will change. It’s just an additional card to increase somehow the power level of the deck, with ofc a random effect crushing the party
so it's kinda buffed Loot Hoarder
Why all the downvotes, it's true.
This could be fun.
As many things in life the Simpsons can explain my thoughts on this card better
