By FAR the weakest spirit card at this point. Totally worthless with the cards that exist so far. Best case is "1 mana, 0/3 pseudo-taunt next turn, draw one card this turn and next if a bunch of conditions are met".
The only way I see this card working is if some of the other cards in the set turn the Druid hero power into an AoE (a Swipe, adjacent minions, etc) so that you could possibly draw more than one card a turn.
ME WANT CARD,,
DRAW MUST FEED,,
Aaaaand swap lose...
Oh btw its not only tog and azulina there will be more mill cards in the future to fuck yo a**
I'm holding my opinion on this card until we see the Champion and Loa legendaries. I'm willing to bet that there's going to be some attack bonus for the Druid hero power.
Man, finally some balanced Druid cards! Now I just can't wait for the next year so UI can cycle out and it might see some play!
This card is actually extremely good imo. A 1 cost 0/3 stealth with a benefit, in druid who has +2+2 buffs for 2 mana, making this a 2/5 on turn 2, is quite strong, I think.
Edit: Why the downvote? In addition, it allows use of even more buffs like Barkskin, and attack cards like Claw, with basically little downside, as you're drawing cards anyway after you attack and kill early game minions. This card is basically snowball incarnate, if you don't see the value in that, I question your hearthstone acumen. Mark my words, this card is much better than any of ya'll are thinking.
Im not saying this Spirit is bad, but why would I want to play him instead of Nourish,UI and Branching Paths? In conclusion: Its the weakest spirit so far
And punch only 1 health minions to draw a card cause of Druid Heropower? I dont think so) It might find some use in Odd Druid but I highly doubt it.
inb4 Loa makes Druid hero poisonous...
This is the year delay druid nerfs at work. class balance card design always works with a long delay
In my opinion, pretty weak. Druid already has many cards that give draw and are more flexible. In this situation you need to suffer 3 mana, have target with 1hp.. In late game I guess you wont be satisfied with last-hitting 9 damage creature. Nothing special.
I don’t see this card being on the power level of the other Spirits unless the Loa involves a swipe-like or adjacent minion effect on the druid’s Hero Power.
Good turn 1 play in odd druid. Odd druid will need a lot more support to be anything more than a mildly fun deck though.
I see, blizzard had to make cards for the one thing Druid doesn't do well; Hero powering.
Couldn't make any more: amour, draw, mana, token, buff, single target removal, Taunt, AoE, Mill, OTK combo enablers, damage spells, tutor.
Legitimately all they can make without public uproar is Hero power stuff and pack fillers.
or a weapon..... (thats my guess)
You can't give druid a weapon because of twig of the world tree
A fine addition to my odd druid
Hopefully loa will make it worthwhile...
I dont think this card will have a high potential. In most cases Druid will not have enough attack to make a benefit out of the card. Moreover, there exist enough draw cards for Druid, e.g. Branching Paths, Ferocious Howl, Nourish, Wrath, etc. that have (or can have) an additional side option (get mana, deal damage).
Too slow because of having only a single attack a turn and attack damage druid cards aren't good. Hero card won't push it enough. Also too much mana for cycling a card. Even if you had 2 attacks with it on board, it would cost 5 mana to draw 2 cards. And you will hardly always kill 2 minions which makes it way too situational.
I’m personally happy to see all these bad Druid cards
Baku druid, may be ...
