    If the Clefthoofs or whatever their name is could go face, it would make this card much more appealing in a more aggressive midrange deck. If they can go face, it will make this card worse in a more defensive build. Either way, not that great regardless.

    Just a pretty good card. Even as a two mana 3/3 vanilla because, being a secret, it can force your opponent to play suboptimally.

    The number of beasts that REALLY like this card will determine how good it is. And right now, although it's not a huge number, it is enough for it to possibly see play.

    I can only see this being played in face Hunter because a two mana deal five to face is appealing, but this card will only do so if there is room over the other two drops in the deck (and yes, I'm considering HP on two after Toxic Reinforcements as a better two drop than this guy).

    1 Heath minions became much worse with the arrival of DH. The only thing this card has going for it is the fact there are no better Hunter one drops (though there is the Neutral 1 mana 2/2 which completely outclasses this).

    It's ok i guess. At turn 4 (because let's face it, druid will have 7 mana by then Kappa), dealing 3 is still retty decent.

    I can already see myself topdecking a useless minion to absorb the mana reduction and lose my combo 9 times out of 10 if I ever decide to meme combo druid with this.

    The mana coming out empty is this card's biggest flaw, I think. To me, it's what makes Nourish as a mana ramping card pretty good, the fact you get 2 leftover mana (which is what I believe made the card cost 6 mana in the first place).

    Here's to hoping a Gadgetzan Auctioneer draw engine with this and the other costs 0 at 7+ mana into a degenerate doesn't become a thing. Other than that, I don't see this card seeing the light of day.

    So token Druids become even more Spell based? I mean, Treants became a thing mostly because 0 mana draw 2 Aeroponics gave the archetype more consistency. I believe that if spell token druid becomes a thing, it will be because more of this card rather than broken spells that summon broken stuff.

    Seeing as how Druids have a much easier time slapping big boys out than Mage, simply comparing it as another Molten Reflection seems a bit less appropriate. It's much more suited for this class, so if the meta is right, we could just see Druids run two of these as a win more card.

    I wasn't a huge fan of [Hearthstone Card (Whispering Woods) Not Found] in token Druid (although I really liked the card overall), and this seems more conditional. Now, I'm not saying it's a bad card, but I would most likely leave it aside on token Druid. That being said, this card could easily get you the board back eith Quest Druid and its tendency to run multiple spells.

    Powerful fast card on itself that generates huge value (quite literally). Honestly this card does a bit too much too well.

    The card seems so busted on Quest Druid, but it's just a powerful tool to help you live to the late game period. Embiggen would love this card as well.

    A topdeck card that topdecks? And what if you topdeck this twice? We have to go deeper.

    In my opinion, a better Skull of Gul'dan as you commit much less mana on card draw and DH seems to be more effective as an aggressive class.

    Pretty decent card. Only seconded to Defile as far as efficient board clears go.

    Pretty much the only card generation tool on DH. And as far as card generation goes, it's pretty mediocre. 2 mana 2/2s are these days.

    This card is seen as only OK today. 5 years ago, Senjin was actually a pretty good card. Just goes to show how much stronger card these days are.

    Fast 2 mana deal 4 that can also be played simply to try and establish a board.
