Well it’s biggest weakness is it can’t affect wild.
Which is from-hand combos, and in aggro decks it’s spotty if devolve helps or if it just lowers stats. F/e devolving a sorc apprentice doesn’t matter since it already same-turn got it’s value last turn against you.
If Devolving Missiles could shoot upwards and hit their cards in hand, now that’s a disruption tool for wild. It could also hit the deck too that would work.
On board trading or like devolving things and such is last year and prior for the most part in wild. I mean yea big priest but that’s about the only cheat out deck getting played rest is just from-hand combos and aggro. F/e the paladin deck cheating out burst damage, i mean devolving burst isn’t a strong play after the fact.
It’s a very standard card unless it can shoot up like a firework and hit cards in hand then it’s effective in wild.
