On its own, I don't think this is as broken as some people make it to be. The card itself eats 4 mana, then it (kind of) casts two Preps, so in the end, you only gained a 3/3 body and two extra mana to spend on spells — which is great, but not broken great.
It becomes really stupid when it's coupled with Shadow Step, Prep, and card draw (like Sprint). You can cycle through your deck for ages. You Prep, play this, and now Sprint and the next spell cost 0. If it's turn 10, you've only spent 4 mana. You can then Shadow Step and play some more spells and other minions that draw other cards... There's so much mana cheat. The question is whether Rogue can convert all this tempo into face damage, which I don't think will be as easy as it is currently.
Now I realize Prep was nerfed last year... That's why you don't give your opinion on Hearthpwn after being 100 years without playing. Oh well, the card's still good.
So it costs 4 mana and it gives you 6 mana worth of value. So basically a 3/3 with a Lightning Bloom attached to it for 4 mana. Seems pretty damn good!
It’s a 3/3 with lightning bloom attached to it for 0* mana.
Murloc legend for shaman, and this card for rogue, lol.
What can i say as a priest player, its a typical rogue legendary, wich means its playable, proactive, perfectly hits the class identity and ofc just ridiculous powerfull.
Im just jealous
Seriously? Look back at a list of Rogue legendaries and tell me that the "typical" rogue legendary fits this description. You know how many legendary cards fit that description? 3. In the history of hearthstone, there have been 3 cards which fit that description. Edwin VanCleef, Shadowjeweler Hanar, and Kingsbane. You know how many meme legendaries there have been in rogue? 15. 15 legendaries which saw little to no competitive play.
Regardless of whether it's good or bad, I love the art and the name.
It's great but definitely not broken.
Fits in every single Rogue deck apart from the currently non-existent Big Rogue deck.
My predictions:
We'll see this card a lot.
It'll be nerfed to reduce by 2
That would be super strong in whirklick rogue, but it rotates. So far combo secret rogue will be still in play and this card feets it well
Talk about auto-include
YES JUSTICE.
how is it justice when the forever strongest class gets the strongest cards in sequence? and of coruse weak classes get absolute crap cards
Source or it never happened. All time meta btw.
This seems super powerful, but I'm not sure what rogue deck runs it. Probably something more tempo oriented. Maybe C'thun Rogue can be athing finally?

Stealth Rogue, probably the strongest version of Rogue at the moment, will not run this card.
*goes second

Ok. OK. I'll recraft Edwin for Wild...
