Almost would rather this as a legendary.
100% agree. this effect for 3 mana should be a legendary!
you can put 2 of them ( not one! ) in deck..
I think I probably hate this? Silence, especially efficient silence like this on a decent body is just really bad for the game.
100% agree, this is terrible design. Silence effects are really important for the game, but they should be something that you have to build around a bit, something that's a bit situational, not a card that's literally just "eh, just silence everything", and on a decent statline at that.
This isn't even a tech card anymore. I mean, it still counters specific silence-vulnerable combo decks and stuff, but you can also just put it into pretty much every deck and there's always gonna be an effect on an enemy minion that you can remove with it and you're in a pretty good spot. Remove taunt to go face, remove an annoying deathrattle, remove lifesteal, or a buff, or an aura effect, anything.
It looks like an anti-combo card at first, but in reality it's going to be run in every aggro deck to counter Colossal minions, since most of those are good anti-agro cards.
It's almost funny. They finally print decent anti-agro cards in this set for once, and then... this.
I hate it.
NO. Awesome card, all that bullshit game needed. Ppl always complain about mana cheating, now, this card will counter this and there are just 2 of them.
Also DK rexxar approves!
How does this counter mana cheat? If I play Wildheart Guff for example, I don't exactly get countered by this.
Tech cards are important, I'm all for them, but not ones that are just auto-include in every tempo/aggro deck.
Not all mana cheats, just minions like Voidlord and armys of taunts from other classes. Specially in wild infested with it. Also Colossal.
Anyway, thanks Bill Gates.
And for all man-children downvoting, get off of low elo
This will go in every deck. With colossal minions entering the meta, deathrattles, mounts and buffs, this will be in every deck. 3 cost 2/4 isn’t even bad stats, it will be in every deck, most impactful card of the set thus far.
Destroys taunt, buff, freezes, deathrattles, everything... It's so lazy design. Not even lower stats. Remember how owl was 3 mana 2/1 silence? How blizzard avoiding giving silence because it makes this "feels bad" situations when your entire archetype gets destroyed by a single card? Well I guess they forgot...
Not sure if this is a card meant for control or aggro. I could see the desire for a control deck to silence all of their opponents minions, assuming they have none of their own, but reliance on Taunt, Lifesteal, and healing Deathrattles to keep yourself alive make this feel undesirable to me. I like this more in aggro decks as a way to turn off all those on-board defensive tools that control decks have so you can keep hitting face. Something like tempo Rogue - where you aren't buffing your minions or using Deathrattles - or maybe a Face Hunter to get Taunts out of the way.
Cool card, cool flavor. I really like this.
Auto include.
this is almost a warlock class card, and definitely impacts the meta more than its noticed. better Show Stopper
Warlock? Are u drunked? xd
10/10 art. Love it.
i was sure this is a murloc for warlock but it wasn't.
warlock got 3 cards so far, i understand the policy but if you want to reveal fewer cards for a class it must be like 8 for others and 6 for this class, not 3 to 8 , 4 to 8
don't really care about warlock but it's strange... 3 cards!
It literally doesn't matter, tho. Every class still gets 10 cards. It just means the Warlock cards are all gonna drop in one big chunk for w/e reason.
oh God, if only this was 2-mana...
Isn't this like just too good and creates too many feels bad -moments?
its mainly an anti freeze tech tbh.
