In wild one of the top decks is a deck that combines auctioneer with many many cheap spells, this will slot in ideally with that deck. That deck is already oppressively good, with this card it will absolutely establish that deck as the tyrant.
What happens in wild is a taste of what will come in standard if druid is given the correct wincondition with this card.
This is techincally much better than siphon mana, even if the effects are comparable. Siphon mana requires an honorable kill, which either requires running a 2 health minion yoursef (usually costs 1-2 mana at the very least, plus playing it which is an additional wasted card space that screws up your hand.) Opponents who know about siphon mana can play around it mostly, until later turns. This your opponent can not play around.
Yeah, I think these slot into some sort of ramp/deathrattle/big druid deck. Starting around turn 5 you just start laying down threats and if any of them stick you double up getting 2x deathrattle.
For treant/drum I’m a little less convinced, since it’s not giving you great survival, which is the main problem with the deck currently.
I could definitly see this. Wild is wild, and they have so many cards to use this with. Looking at the deck Im assuming you are referring to with Tony/Auctioneer, they could probably cut out a 0 mana card for it. Of course 40% of the spells in the deck already cost 0, and most of the 1 and 2 cost spells gain more mana than you spend, so the deck still has the exact same limitations as it will without this card, that being you have to reach 6/7 mana to play auctioneer.
Not always. In slow matchups, yes it could be played around, and this card would probably be better.
But against aggro decks, they dont have a choice but to play 2-3 health minions, and clearing a minion while discounting your entire hand was pretty good
An interesting package. Not sure ATM what it is used with but maybe there is something there. They have the tank up package so i expected something to go along with that for directly after nuking Anub’rekhan from orbit.
