    Just another good aoe spell for priest. Nothing special. If you cast this on turn 3, the plus effect is almost irrelevant, because traditionally priest does not play many minions in the early game.

    Never netdeck, craft Whizbang instead!

    Seems honestly quite decent for a control Priest, although probably be run as a 1 of due to Mass Hysteria and Plague of Death being more suited for mass removal.

    This is really only going to be used in metas where you would ever consider running Holy Nova as this would replace it. Works very nicely against a meta where there is lots of aggressive small minions early on.

    This card is fine, good removal for its cost, given the restriction.

    It's obviously quite a bit better than Holy Nova, but I'm still a little underwhelmed by this. Sure, removing the friendly fire is nice and all, but I'd rather have an extra point of damage as a dragon bonus. It's decent but nothing too exciting.

    3 mana deal 2 AOE is already pretty good (Volcanic Potion was solid), and the dragon synergy really amplifies it. Great card, and even though Priest has tons of AOE, this could easily see play in a Highlander Dragon Pries

    More removal for priest? Sure .. at least this is a fair one, good against aggros and nothing else.

    So it's basically 3 mana consecration that isn't even bad when not holding a dragon.

     

    I'm just tired of seeing priest getting premium removal every expansion

    Might be decent in Standard, especially against Quest-Shaman.

    But I'd say that it'll see more play in Wild. It deals 1 more Damage than Spirit Lash, which is HUGE in the early Game.

    In standard, priest doesn't have very many mini board clears aside from Holy Ripple. This will help control/dragon priest obtain a spot in the meta for sure. 2 damage is pretty significant on turns 1-4 against aggro decks.

    Although in wild it is a bit redundant as we already have about 523 board clears for priest. This will probably just be lost in the fray.

    another Volcanic Potion clone

    This one doesn't even need the dragon synergy to be playable. Maybe value control priest might be a thing after all. I guess it depends on how the rest of the meta ends up.

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    This is good enough to just see play in Priest, regardless of Dragon related effects. With the Dragon its definitely better some portion of the time, not hitting your board, but Priest is a class that also sometimes wants to deal a small amount of damage to all its minions so it can then heal those minions and draw a bunch of cards, and so I see this slotting into combo style priest deck as well, without Dragons at all. Just a solid card all around.

    To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of the women.

    Totally seems like another tool for control priest, and in regards of Holy Nova, no one actually played that card because of the healing effect, so in that sense this is actually a better (cheaper) version.

    Nice, cheap board clear. A bit weaker than the dust breaker, but 1 mana cheaper as well.

    Probably a repeated joke, but Volcanic potion is crying in the wild corner. I think the card is nice, smaller AoE´s are also very important and can save the whole game if they stop an opening of an aggro deck. The good thing is that the spell is good even when it hits also your side (as we know that also Volcanic potion saw play, sometimes you just don´t care about your side or as a priest maybe you don´t even have a minion in the early game on board yet)

    Priests strandard AOE spells are Plague of Death, Mass Hysteria, Holy Nova and Holy Ripple so I see this being a nice fit for Priests AOE arsenal.

    3 mana deal 2 damage to all enemy minions is good and priest might not even care about the dragon synergy if they are playing a slow control deck without running a whole lot of early game minions.

    More dragons? Yes please!

    So a Consecration for 1 mana less for Volcanic Potion otherwise. Seems playable even without the dragon synergy.

    Yeah, agreed with other players that this is a really good early board clear. I most likely is only really played in some kind of control priest, who may or may not even care about the conditional aspect of it. Definitely a solid card; if people played Volcanic Potion, people will play this.

    is a nice tool for priest to clear wide boards of small minions.

    This card for now is the only breath where actually you don't mind if you have a dragon in hand or not, so i can honestly see this played in a deck with zero dragons in it.

    Maybe the priest needed a low cost board clear to complete his set of removals, so i think this card has is merit. But still we don't know how priest is going to close games (i mean control priest, inner fire priests still work wonderfully).

    What a crazy name for a worse Consecration for 1 less mana. The card isn't bad but probably the worst or at least the more "balanced" Dragon Breath card.

    Not a BAD AOE spell, but not great either - the 2 dmg is a little low for everything except tokens, and it lacks a few things that makes the other "little aoes" more useable - i.e. doesn't hit face like Consecration, doesn't generate new spells (maybe) like Blast Wave, doesn't have the heal effect of Holy Ripple or Holy Nova, etc.

    We are able to make a full aoe priest in wild if priest gets more aoe.

    I really don't understand this wisdom. There are actually no finisher effect for priest. What will we do with tons of aoe spells in this class ? Inner Fire for 6 years isn't enough ?

    Design some creative finishers for priest other than Inner Fire so we can use those aoes in it.

    There is no doubt the card is great btw. Nothing to say more.

    Assuming that the complete effect will always trigger in a dragon deck, this is a Consecration for 3 mana. This card might also find its way into pure control decks, where damaging the own minions does not matter.

    Early game AOE removal for priest sounds really strong. In general their AOE damage hasnt been great, too random and high cost. Im excited to see what priest can do with this. 

    Wondering if it could be great with the quest, even without dragons.
