"Battlecry: draw a legendary card from your deck"

Slap that on some low cost 2-3 minion to grand players more control over their deck and their ability to draw the tools they built their deck upon.

Such concepts already exist: Kronx Dragonhoof allows you to draw Galakrond, and all quests start in your hand.

Drawing cards like Zerekk’s cloning gallery or Frizz Kindleroost when your deck only has like 2 cards left in it can feel terribly wrong.

I really like this idea!

Blizzard will have to be careful on how it affects balance. Any “draw a card” battlecry is already pretty strong (and should affect the cost vs stats ratio on a minion). If the draw effect is more specific and guarantees the draw of a specific card, then that should be reflected in the cost vs stats even stronger!

I want a “Draw a picture” card, and the better the drawing, the better the stats

Meh, I played vs Highlander decks and the flow of the cards get old. Dragonhoof =P

But cards like Dinometer Brann 7 cost (6 if coin) get King Crush NINE COST 8/8 rush. And Brann is always there on turn 7. Even in a Highlander one of a kind deck. Just a wonder how decks flow oh so carefully to win using those 1 of each card only turns 1 - 7.

But yeah, Priest closing factory or Rogue Grey Tessmane. Druids and Ysera get free dragons just play draw a card and bing bing bing towards the end of the deck.

IMO they need to just make a card that cost 100 real dollars and you win the game when its played. also 1 mana. netrual spell.

Played vs a Rogue with typical King Togglewaggle discover dream card 3 cards for 0 cost and rest what RNG epic history.

Played vs draw draw draw Double Mountain Giant Warlock. Only 8 cards deep into the deck but you know both are there. Drop Khartut on 6, what else is new. Either this or Rottenapplebaum. Never without one of these. How do they know they will have it? Because its Hearthstone.

Play “Discover” 2 Warlock cards. Oh! I will take these 2 direct dmg spells yess please and one gets me health! Discover, such a bad mechanic as it takes out any skill that might remain.

Drop Ysera on 9 =P oh they call it high rolling but its not.

Now Drop Rotten Applebaum and seal the deal. Mountain giants heavily favored it for me and Ysera wins it for me.

Now send a friend request to taunt you with my no skill victory my cards always come off the deck the same Warlock Man Giant. Just played the cards the AI gave me.

Anyone see this deck before doing the same old same old?

I will be a p2p player if this card is introduced!

I’ve always wanted a card like this for 2 reasons.

  1. The obvious reason of being able to draw a relatively good card and make your deck more consistent as well as make interesting ‘1 legendary’ decks that want to get one powerful legendary that isn’t played due to it being inconsistently drawn. (Like High Priest Thekal in a Heal Paladin or Lady in White in Inner Fire Priest)
  2. It is an appealing option to new players since legendaries are super flashy, why WOULDN’T you want to play them more?
