Gonk Druid LOVES this. A really solid, playable card in Standard as well, Druid tends to have powerful cards, and this can help tutor and cheat some of them out.
Maybe cheating mana later matters less, but cheating is cheating, and its always good.
Welcome to my TURBO GONK DRUID!
The Gonk potential is underrated. With the level 2-3 form you can quite easily get Gonk cost down so you can play it and Floop in the same turn with claws/pounces and unleash an otk.
Cool card, I dunno if Druid wants cycle like this when it has so much card draw, but the cost reduction is potentially worthwhile.
...but the art, name and effect don't seem to go together at all.
I think the art makes sense if you look at the progression in the art. The tauren plants a seed which grows really fast, thus the name, living seed. As the seed grows, it attracts bigger and bigger beasts (according to the artwork), which goes along with the idea that you could play bigger beasts for the same cost at the upper ranks.
It just seems like it'd have more to do with restoration or something. Living Seed is a healing spell in WoW. Also the beasts in the art feel more incidental than anything.
KINDA feel like this was a last minute change of some kind maybe. Probably during development they decided that Druid wouldn't have healing spells anymore.
Oh, I missed the beasts detail, now yeah I can see the flavor of the art.
Apart from the correlation art - effect, which is still not the strongest I've ever seen, the growing tree art is nice enough to make one want to draw it early and see the progress.
Possibly, but sometimes WoW things don't translate well to Hearthstone, so yeah maybe they wanted to use the skill but not have it be healing, dunno.
So much card draw? Druid doesn't really have many efficient card draw cards that aren't very archetype specific (like the "draw three cards, discard any minions drawn card) right now.
There were plenty of times in the past when that was true of Druid, but it's not really true now, and it'll be even less true after rotation, unless we get some other card draw options in Barrens.
I mean right now Druid has Overflow. Guess the Weight is staying in rotation and is generally pretty good card draw. Nourish is gonna be around too, which is weaker, but if the meta slows down enough could see some niche play.
garbage
ok this is a good tutor for new Frenzy beast
Good ranked card finally. Though the reward at 10 is less relevant due to more mana crystals.
Probably most relevant at rank 2. At 7 mana, you can play this card and get a 5 mana Druid of the Plains for example to follow up, so it basically guarantees you could get it out by 7 mana
Beast druid is back less gooo
