It's like...decent.
I liked the art card
by itself without a minion killed it’s, underpowered, I don’t like cards that need a certain situation to be good or broken, I think this is an arena cards more than constructed
Noob Saibot vibe.
Sick Tempo card, great in pretty much any Warlock deck with Tamsin.
warlock as a lot of infuse potential, this just enhances it.
While I don't think this card is too great in current iterations of warlock, a new style (or even a return to some old minion heavier variants) may make this a decent tempo swing.
Great with the new minion, otherwise pretty mediocre. If you just need taunts there are options that don't require all of the hoops.
"All of the hoops"? As in, one minion dying?
Uhhh.. yeah. That sure is a HUGE circuit of hoops. One minion dying. It's clearly a terrible card because meeting the condition of a minion dying is incredibly difficult.
...
Yes, it is? Killing a minion costs additional mana and/or a removal card you may not have in your hand. There may not be minions on the board, or you have to kill your own minion. There are so many scenarios where killing a minion isn't trivial but you need a taunt because the opponent is about to for example Jace you in the face.
If you "just need taunts," you will use other cards. However, if you are looking for shadow spells (Tamsin, Lady Darkvein, and Shadowborn synergy) that generate multiple bodies (infuse synergy) and just happen to have the added benefit of taunt, this card is great.
As he conveniently forgets that a lot of shit dies in Warlock, most of the time deliberately.
Alright deck intro time
This seems more appropriate for a fel spell to me (heavy tempo/minion-based like most of the fel spells), but I guess they wanted to push shadow spells for some reason.
So with the new mana cheat its a 2 mana summon a 6/10 taunt from a spell? Blizzzaaaard.
as a warlock main let me tell you a secret about this card:
this card can goes to zero mana (new minion or Tamsin)
the shadows are 5 mana minions, if you Sacrificial Summoner this it pulls out Kaelthas from your deck.
the whole thing means you have a 3 mana Kaelthas ready for combo wombo
hey Mike
I feel sick already
