The enormous creature unfurled terrifying claws dripping with poisonous ichor. King Togwaggle was pleased, but inwardly disappointed the great Nightmare refused to wear the candle.

    so the combo is:

    1) Invoke 4 times

    2) Myra's Leeroy Scheme

    3) Galakrond, 4 0 mana Leeroys deadly posion = 31 damage (don't forget fully upgraded Galakron gives a 5/2 weapon)

    I smell combo shenanigans...

    At the very least we're slowly getting card draw back into Rogue without having to nuke our entire deck.

      Even if this isn't really scratching the surface of the combo shenanigans, I'm going to play this in a Tempo/Togwaggle Rogue deck, if only because the Invoke/Hero Power and Galakrond's Battlecry could open up for massive Edwin VanCleef or Questing Adventurer turns.

      For some reason Blizzard's data insists on 30 Health even though 5 would make more sense in my opinion.

        I guess it makes sense, since it's a hero card, and heroes start at 30 health. I don't see why they don't have different stat boards for different card types though. There are only 4, after all. Spells are listed as having 0 attack and 0 health.
