I can see only the slightest glimmer of hope for this crap with a card like this in Wild with the card that makes a 1/1 copy, brann and Drakkari, you can make copies of this, then on a banish turn, set them all and the drakkari for 10 damage each...
THE PROBLEM is that you can do "basically" the same with Ragnaros for much better results while playing an actual good card that doesn't need dumb ass set up like this to work and , agian, deals more damage... yet that combo doesn't shine at all for being too convoluted.
I mean, how on earth did they print such garbage? the problem is that, by itself, is absolutely hideous. They should have given it stealth, so when it attacks, it loses stealth, but guarantees at least one use instead of free meal
what happens if you have 4 of these? Does it not work?
Similar to Star Aligner it works if you have more.
pretty good meme
might work with drakari enchanter
This card could be good if you find a way to make 2 copies of it, if you manage to get 3 copies then you get a good effect. It could be hard however seeing as you can only put 2 in your deck.
the latest gimmick card.
guys, they probably tested it at 4 mana for like 1 game, and were worried about it, but they let things like jade druid, and big priest make it through lul kek ecks Dee
Do silenced versions of the card count toward controlling 3? If you have 3 on board but 1 was silenced would the 2 not silenced ones trigger doing 10 dmg?
I’d say yes. But only those without silence will activate
You play this in priest and only play these things, in a rez deck. Keep using vivid nightmares, seance, etc until they're all online. When the time is right, mass resurrection for 15 random damage, then next turn lose the game.
hahah
Do they each do the 5 damage though? Cause that's not too bad especially if you have 7 on the field doing 35 dmg every turn.
I would agree with you, except that the card states,
What you and I would prefer would be:
Bummer.
Wait, now I'm second guessing myself. If you control 5 Desert Obelisks, you technically do have 3, right? I'm confused.
worst card ever
No kidding this is really bad.
0/5 is worth 2 Mana.. That means the card text is worth 3 Mana.
5 Damage (Targeted) would be worth 3 Mana. To a random Taget and with such a dire condition? Never!
...did you just reply to yourself?
Definitely did, he is probably those middle tear players, because this card is awesome! this is like Ragnarok but you can have 7 doing 35 damage at a time. I'm sure this card will have multiple different type of decks. This could be the best card in the expansion.
you definitely don't sound like even a middle tier (not tear) player if you think this is good. this is easily the worst card in hearthstone.
I'm half convinced that this will be the Saviors of Uldum version of Dragonhatcher: Community says it's a -3 out of 10, will turn out to be a 7/10 in some niche deck.
Probably. 3 of them = 15 damage. You can think of them as "mini-rags" for 5 mana with a condition. Though I imagine priest will take some use out of them by reviving them, or cheating them out with cloning gallery.
I can't vision the deck right now, but some madman is going to break this card.
P.S No idea why you are getting downvotes. It's a fair comment to not underestimate cards until we see them in action.
