this card we be great against those annoying mill rogues. cant wait to watch them kill themselves off with there own milling. The laughs will be amazing.
Yeah but you don't only take 3. You take 3 and draw a card and then shuffle more into your deck.
So first you get 3 + 1 Fatigue + Shuffle cards.
Then you get 3, 3, 2 Fatigue, Suffle cards, shuffle cards.
Then you get 3, 3, 3, 3, 3 Fatigue, Shuffle Cards, Shuffle Cards, Shuffle Cards...
There is no "draw a card" text on Corrupted Blood, so what you say is meaningless.
I thought the same as @Kris234. Corrupted Blood is a good tech against mill decks.
Casts When Drawn cards draw a card after they trigger their effect. Corrupted Blood is the worst possible tech against mill decks because if you get to fatigue you die in 3 turns or less

There is no "draw a card" except that "Casts when drawn" has a specific meaning that means it is played the moment you draw it and you you draw another card. Look it up, it's actually implemented in the game right now on cards like Scroll of Wonder.
There's been a lot of confusion over how Corrupted Blood works, so I figured I'd clear some things up.
According to the wording of the card, when you draw a copy of Corrupted Blood, 3 things happen in a very specific order:
This order is very important when considering the following case: If you draw Corrupted Blood whilst there are no other cards in your deck you will take 3 damage, then take fatigue damage, then shuffle 2 copies of Corrupted Blood into your deck. On the following turn, you will take 6 damage, take fatigue damage, then shuffle 4 copies of Corrupted Blood into your deck. And so on.
If you add up the damage from each turn (assuming you haven't taken any fatigue damage up until this point) it looks like this:
As you can see Hakkar, the Soulflayer is not anti-fatigue tech. If you reach fatigue whilst you have Corrupted Blood in your deck, you die. If anyone disagrees with my interpretation of the cards effects feel free to correct me. If I am misinterpreting the card I would like to know sooner rather than later.
I do not see it as OP because Skulking Geist is already kind of a default card against some decks and works here as well.
no it's not, in meta decks it's only run in even warlock (1 of)
It's gonna be the same case as the Jade Idol decks era, most of the control decks had at least one copy of Skulking Geist
I guess you might want to use Hemet, Jungle Hunter to remove the copies from your deck with any other deathrattle combo....

I see nurfs inc . This will probably end Up broken like original shudderwock and i foresee alot of crafty deckbuilders killing themselves with their own card draw lol
Hate to break it to you but this card is trash.
In order to protect myself. I will concede to any hunter that plays this card instantly. So scared.....
I think skulking geist isn't that great to counter this. Cause you would need to keep the geist till this card is played and you killed it.
That means that all other 1 drops can just be played so it is kinda risky.
Skulking Geist MVP until next rotation.
