I guarantee that shit is gonna be obnoxious as fuck in wild. We'll have to see in standard since warlock currently sucks.
In wild, don't they have enough big threats as it is?
Not sure it's worth a second or third copy of something to make it worth the pain to set up, because it has to combo with something that kills it so it doesn't get silenced, and needs to wait for the right hand.
Could be very good for Renolock I guess.
I haven't played wild that much since rotation, but last time I played there was just so much fucking greed that I have to assume people will play this. I mean it doesn't even have to hit shit like Nzoth or DK Guldan. I'm sure another Voidlord, Malganis, or even a Doomguard would be fine. I think most would just combo it with defile. But yeah, Renolock was my first thought.
I like District but damn are the spawns garbage. Thought with Gears 4 TC would learn you don't need to flip the spawns every 6 seconds.

New azure drake! Tempo and value wrapped up in a 5 mana 8 stat body.
And maybe i missed it from the last two expansions i barely played, but is "from another class" new? Thought it was always your opponents class for this type of thing.
So I'm talking to someone that's convinced the current decks that warrior has are the strongest decks that the class has ever had and that they'd probably dominate previous metas. I mean he's been playing since the end of 2017....so I'm thinking he just blocked the last year and a half out of his mind, otherwise I have no idea how he came to that conclusion.
They changed it not too long ago, that way rogue mirrors aren't so terrible.
It would probably have to replace ziliax right?
Would azure Drake be played much these days? So much more card draw now a days.

In a vacuum this card is just okay. It gets a lot stronger once you consider vendetta, bounce cards, and other thief related synergy.
^ u just gave me flashbacks to the couple months where star aligner druid destroyed absolutely everything in wild lol
maybe if there's some decent clone effects you could make a meme obelisk priest, you'd be getting 15 damage minimum which, granted is pretty strong, of course its just going to hit 3 silver hand recruits but if i pull them i could go for some hype....just why do they always make these cards epics tho, never going to spend 800 dust on a joke deck and it feels bad to pull em

Interesting card. Probably no level of consistency with it but that damage would add up quick. Maybe a new form of resurrect Priest that also runs Divine Spirit + Inner Fire.
Is it 5 damage per obelisk you control? It has to be, right? An OTK deck where you try to get six of these on an empty board would be interesting.
A wild rogue 1/1 copies + prep/vanish deck is the only way i see it OTKing anyone.
Typical druid and mage combo decks have problems with board space and board clears, and I don't think anyone else has the tools to both copy and mana cheat minions.
You don't OTK and make a deck for these, you'll just cry after the thing you spend all game building toward goes away in one board clear.
Edit: Actually, resurrect priest might be winnable with this, even if not as OTK. I could see it getting annoying to deal with turn after turn.
And by winnable, I mean winning 1 out of 10 against random meta decks played by decent players.

For those saying this may be used in an OTK, are we sure about that? It says "if you control 3", not "if you control *at least* 3". So, to me, it reads like you'd only ever get 15 random damage, and only if you have exactly 3. (Barring end of turn doublers, I suppose.)
Star Aligner is similarly worded and doesn't care if you have more than 3.
I do know a handful of streamers that will try very hard to make this work though.
It being any enemy makes it even worse though.

that's just the wording they use, they trigger with 3, if there are more, the condition is met, some similar wording happened with Jan'alai and we even had a topic about that months ago, it's "at least" always.
it's a class minion, so it should be above average usually...
Oh yeah, it's definitely going to see play. It's basically an Underbelly Fence glued to a Blink Fox in a single card that can activate your thief synergies. It's a super solid card.
This expansion is looking pretty rough right now. I thinks we are going to see some nerfs shortly after launch. Personally I want Conjurer's gone, maybe remove the Murloc tag from Underbelly Angler and give it a flavor change. Turn it into a mech and give it some art of Murlocs being thrown into a grinder while spitting new ones out. I would like to see Omega Devastator lose it's tag too.
Yes, Hunters have weapons although you wouldn't know it with all the Mech Hunters running around these days. :P
Is this a real card? A 3 mana 7/7 split over two bodies seems insane to me.
it is real, yeah.
yeah this is a good card, imo, all 3 of them revealed today
You'll hardly ever play that on curve and it has a pretty strict limitation. It's strong, but fair for what it is.
exactly what I tought yeah, there are 2 lackey generators for warlock right now and 1 of them require a minion sacrifice, it's not as easy as it looks
The zoo meta deck pretty consistently has lackeys in hand on turn 3. 4 mana 3/3 and 5/5 still seems pretty strong.
3 mana draw 3 also seems pretty strong.
Not sure about killing a card for the health cost. Situationally strong.
Playing it on 4 with a Lackey is still a 4 mana 7/7 with the potential for a strong Battlecry.
Speaking of which, I wonder what the new Lackeys will do? Looking forward to those being revealed.
Holy shit at Tip the Scales. Murloc Paladin back on the menu? If not in Standard, this is gross for Wild. Summon a full board, then bring them back later with Anyfin Can Happen.
