Here is a video which shows how the card works:
Since the Shaman is my favorite class I’m quite exited for this one. Very versatile and lot’s of room to experiment.

Shaman has become the evolutioner-discoverer class.

While it can be cheated out well before 9 that video made nebula look really boring… summon 2 bland 8/8s…
Also turn 3 fairy tale forest, turn 4 cattle rustler, turn 5 farseer nobundo + 0 cost ravenous kraken…
Or alternatively shudderblock + scrapbooking student.
Not sure having 4 or 5 of the locations breaks the game but the option is there. It’s like 30 damage over 3 turns with crash of thunder… or chain jive insect over and over again.
Certainly looks like ‘big spell’ draenei shaman could be a thing (although the spell pool isnt as great)…
Why bland? There are some good options in the pool.
You can go face with Al’Akir, Ragnaros is dangerous and if nothing else you have 2 big taunt minions with Elusive. Even 4 if you use the location.
Did you ever get your 1k wins with Shaman? I remember seeing one of your Posts some time ago, saying that you we’re Close.

I did. It was against another Shaman and we even had the same hero skin.
That was 6 months ago now that I look at the date of the picture. I was kinda grinding to finally get to 1000 and it felt SO slow. But it happend finally.

uh did you notice it adds taunt and elusive ?
so far the worst pick is brann followed by elise and soulstealer…the pool doesnt look that bad
To me, Shaman has always been the summoner class. I think that is what it is supposed to be, anyhow.
Ya I get what the card does… It can be cheated out early too and replayed over and over with the location but I still find it really bland and I find the 8 drops in the game really bland as well.
I wont disagree theres potential for it to be powerful… but that to me is separate from being bland. Its obviously one of the few cards that would fit into a draenei ‘big spell’ shaman deck but doesn’t seem very exciting compared to a lot of other high cost cards printed in the game over its history.
powerful doesn’t mean interesting. I agree.
