    Yet another legendary with a boring effect. That said, Rogue would be grateful for having that 5 mana legendary, that reduces the cost of deathrattles in hand to (1). This in combination with Backstab allows them to cycle a lot of cards.

    The neutrals especially are pretty underwhelming.

    Colossus of the Moon and Siamat are just stats with two keywords on them (At least you get some flexibility with Siamat, but still not all that flashy).

    King Phaoris and Zephrys the Great look somewhat interesting, but the type of decks that fit into are pretty straightforward, so there isn't as much room for experimentation.

    Oh yeah, these Forum Signatures are a thing.

    There was a redditor that made 10 mana dragon that has almost identical deathrattle effect. I bet he is so proud right now

    Why was this person downvoted? He was just making an innocuous comment about the card, which I for one, agree with.

    Hmm, is this a Giant mage buff? Imagine Mage, with Giant on board, plays Khadgar into Conjurer's Calling and pops 4 of these, then the Warlock plays Twisting Nether... oops

    Nevermind, I don't know why I thought the giants cost 8. Still it could be dangerous to pop many of these.

    A puzzle box? What does it say? ... Yogi-Saffron something... sure, let's open it, what is the worst that could happen?

    This card will be AMAZING imho. You people don't see what kind of deck this card will be played in: this is a Myra's unstable element that has a giant body and that doesn't end your deck, it is the perfect refiller for an aggro deck that is trying the last push to win. If your opponent is low on health but you are low on cards, play this and refuel, or use him to go face.

    I think it's a good card after all.

    this card is not bad in normal aggro/midrange (non combo/non control) decks

    generaly in those types of decks u dont care about overdraw and this just refill your hand 

    but the problem is this is a 8 mana 8/8 that do nothing when gets played so its probably bad but its not that bad which people think it is

    It is kinda good, but the problem is that it won’t be impactful because it doesn’t gain you board control like lich king with taunt and ragnaros with removal. The thing is, it does nothing when you spend a whopping 8 mana. I guess it’s good if you gain advantage board, but by no means, this card is not better than other late game legendaries or even non legendary late game minions.

    if I got this, doubt it will result good, but I’m glad they implemented very similar minion to one redditor that made a fan card, will try it if I got it

    I am not sure, if this is good... but I will try it out for sure.

    I think this has a chance in a midrange deck, which lacks other strong enough card draw options and finds itself too often runs out of steam.

    I see you!

    seems like too much of a meme, decent in arena in a none tempo driven meta.

    Definitely for either aggro (hand fill late game/finisher) or for miracle style decks.  Problem for miracle/combo is the likely case you’ll mill your key cards.

    Bonus points for mill warlock with treachery

    Its Aluneth on steroids. Could be something in an aggro deck. To be able to draw 8 when you run out of steam is kind a...nice. Imagine a mage saves this for late game, then attack with it, then conjures calling it gives you 8 damage, 2 8 cost cards and 8 card draw. The total nuts. Even more nuts when it costs less, say 1 mana after galaxy spell. And it goes in the 8-pool of possible summons of conjure's calling. I now already believe that the 8 mana pool is one of the best.

    It would be a hunter card and then they saw their class identity claims so they threw it in neutral.

    I guess this is the neutral version of Myra's Unstable Element, for those lists who need to empty their deck fast.

    I can't really see this card used for genuine draw: any deck that plans to reach (8) constantly enough (and Aggro is not one of them), will already have enough card and draw value.

    What if we take a different persrective?  It is beast, it draw cards. On paper it's good for activating Untamed Beastmaster while playing - let's say - shaman who bad in large draw. The question is how to pop it avoiding transform or silence in more than one or two turns... Hmm...
