The blood ability alone is worth it. This card is going to be brutalized. I do think that the unholy card was cheap shot a little, but the other two are just gross.
I would like to think though that as good as the rune cards you're running would help that deck (blood for blood, etc...) but being able to grab a frost or unholy card when you're running 3 blood is almost always a welcome thing
The Primus is kinda a weird one. Its doing everything you want from DK, and yet he neither snowballs competently and can't be said to finish games on his own. Jack of all trades, master of none I guess.
All of his abilities play certain roles, there's none that standout. I guess the fairest assessment I can make is to say that he'll see play in every DK deck but wont really be the win con of that deck. You dont build around this card, the card simply gets in because it can.
So you potentially get three discovers, one for each rune. I'm going to assume they aren't making an exception for the no three-rune cards in discover rule for this. Seems alright though, just not sure it will be amazing.
I honestly can't see how this won't be overpowered as crap unless aggro is constant.
Ridic value

I expect Blood DK in particular to use him the most, but other DKs will appreciate the value provided by him.
Hey, you heard about that Mario guy?
Very strong card. The blood ability alone makes this card worth running in blood DK, and Rainbow DK might also enjoy it. I also feel like Plague DK will probably enjoy using The Primus as well. Just a very good TITAN that is quite flexible.
RNG is only fun as long as there is a 50/50 chance of getting something really good or trash level of bad. If RNG always results in something good, then it's not fun.
