But gnomes have tiny hands...
Seems like it will def have a home if a new handlock emerges
I have missed the good old hand-lock archetype in standard. These new reveals might help it make a come back.
Will this summon an 11/11 demon if played with 12 cards in hand? Am i understanding that right?
Yes, it goes up to 11!
:)
I think that the synergy will be excellent with Bloodreaver Gul'dan. If you create a few large demons and just bring them back again... that could spell a major pain.
Handlock support. Seems balanced too.
this is what comes out when a Twilight Drake has a night of passion with a Voidlord
its a more consistent Astromancer
Its practically another copy of giant in handlock for 6. The fact that the demon summoned has taunt makes this attractive since you don't just die after playing her.
But does handlock need a card like this? If you're going for greed then yes, otherwise you'd much rather have something else to counter aggro with. Not to also mention that this card doesn't synergise with plot twist warlock plays. Wished this was 5 mana with a deathrattle, but otherwise can't see this being placed into anything but the greediest warlock decks.
A huge taunt isn't just for protection against aggro, it's also very useful to kill your opponent. Handlock doesn't have to be defensive: I've been experimenting with an aggressive handlock built around Mountain Giant and Expired Merchant and while it's not quite there yet, with cards like this it may well become viable.
Also... isn't greed the essence of handlock? You take a risk by tapping often in the hope of a big pay-off.
Nice! this card has a lot of support to be used so it's gonna be great
Decent card has some demon synergy so thats nice the fact that the demon has taunt gives it a bonus.
After quest completion drawing into it is gonna be a pretty nice play.
Yeah, the Handlock /Quest lock will be a thing in standard, i can see it now.
Life will be good. Hopefully a viable Hand/Quest lock deck will come
Obviously for use in hand lock alongside Valdris Felgorge, but I just don't think this card is really good enough, unless there is more support.
Mountain Giant seems to be preferable, but with more support this could be a strong power play.
I am not sure, but I think this card will summon an 11/11 demon with 12 cards in hand....if that is the case this will be good
Primordial Drake and Mountain Giant joined the party.
did you mean twilight drake?
Yeah.
Thats because I miss him so bad and I refuse to forget those goodtimes
