Fel-flames slowly writhed around the skeleton, until the great bones knit themselves together into a demonic monstrosity. Rafaam shielded his face from the heat but could not hide his grin.

High variance on random demons, really spooky if you get 1 or 2 high stat ones
Something that I always feel gets underrated are decks with repeated board flood potential like this, so I think this will be stronger than most are assuming.
These needs to be a bit stronger in order to be viable (or needs a lot more support). I'm not seeing this as viable. Poor Warlock... They really needed this one. Year of the Dragon? I think it's more like Year of the... wait, where's Gul'dan?
Has potential, but needs a lot of support right now. In Wild, the bigger pool of demons might actually be a drawback, but still, the chance to get another mal´ganis from this may be worth it. Otherwise, not really excited for this one. :/
This is too dependant on rng. Again, warlock getting lousy cards, unfortunate! Unless some cool demons are printed, in standard at least this is not good, specially compared to other revealed Galakronds.
edit:typo
Random demons can range form absolute bad to multiple big boys—if invoke cards are aggressive enough then there's a possible chance to put this in zoo
His wirkshipper is so much stronger than him! I will try GaZOOlakrond if I get him from packs, but I don´t see myself crafting this guy.
The board flood Zoo deck looks so far to be pretty powerful.
Quite a few demon synergies with cards like Jumbo Imp and other token cards the deck could see some play. I feel what the deck really needs is the demon equivalent of Soul of the Murloc in order to really shine.
The huge amount of variance to Galakrond's battlecry might be enough to ensure the deck does not see play. Although the hero power and Invoke cards do seem to be quite powerful token generators, so that might be enough on its own.
I'd love to get a Mal'ganis from this card but with my luck it's going to be imps
EH there's been some strong demons added this year but there's also tons of WIMPY demons too
and the hero power doesn't really mesh with warlocks playstyle, they can't capitalize on wide board buffs like paladin or druid can.
it does help with Humongous Imps, tho
This one looks tricky, but maybe it could work if some Imp-Demon Zoo Variant makes it to the meta with the other invoke cards? Don't know
I had my doubts about this guy, but I'm warming up to him. With the Invokes, Zoolock will get access to some pretty nice board spams and have a potential late-game finisher.
"Summon not 1, but TWO worthless imps!"
The battlecry is trash, but it can be a good finisher for zoo if upgraded fully. Also, I think you run it in zoo warlock for Veiled Worshipper alone.
I agree, this might very well bring about a new dawn for zoo. The battlecry might be a nice finisher, either early for midgame board solitification or late for the burst of the claw.
I would love for another direction other than zoo for warlock. Since KaC their sets have been weak. I just want fun options for warlock
So, it's either "Holy Sh*t! I've summoned 4 Jumbo Imps!" or "Why the Witchwood Imps... AGAIN!?"
Gamble Warlock?
this will be the revival of zoolock in standard. i got no doubts on this
I love all galakrond cards, but this one is really bad...still love it tho. 3/5 solid pick, hopefully it will be better with age, like a fine wine..
so warlock galakrond is going to be zoo
