I’d like to know the following:
- Who on the design team thought that this would be “cool”
- Who else in the board room nodded their agreement when this goofy a$$ card was brought up
- Also, can this card just silently disappear? Would be much appreciated.
Naw, the card isn’t that bad. There are plenty worse cards out there.

I think it was obviously meant to be paired with Wave of Apathy for a board clear, but board clears in Priest don’t work as well when they require a 2 card combo.
For the mana cost, it’s a bit too high. Why run Against All Odds when you can just run Shadow Word Ruin?
Against All Odds could be a 3 cost spell and likely still wouldn’t see much play.
Knowing this, I wouldn’t be shocked if we see a 6 mana spell that destroys all Even Health Minions or something similarly dumb.

On top of the great point you make about the two-card combo required for a guaranteed clear, the fact that it also kills your own board it makes it even more a perplexing design given that is surrounded by better cards that do what it can do typically more efficiently.

2 card combo clears are 1 card too many. Other than the 2 card combo it’s easy enough to play around and thus fine for what it does.
So I see it most often discovered off palmreading, where it becomes a strong 2 mana clear.
I do not know of any deck or reason to carry the card, though.
It’s really not that bad and it’s quite a forgettable card. I feel like you were in a situation with a good board and your opponent cleared it with this card. I main Priest but I hardly use this card and maybe only take it off a Discover card if I need it. Remember, it clears their own minions also (if odd attack).
It’s still a 97% board clear against Odd Hunter etc. in Wild, I think?
3% go to even minions somehow buffed/generated by the Odd Deck player.
It doesn’t target Odd Cost it targets Odd Attack. Being a Baku Deck doesn’t mean all your minions are Odd Attack. Plenty of Even Attack minions with Odd cost.
Jepp, you‘re right - I mixed up those two parameters.
My fault.
