If Broomstick was still around, this card would look a bit better, but that is about it. At least this card makes the evolve pool for evolve shaman a little weaker.
I can see Shaman somewhat using this with Bolner and Brilliant Macaw if they want to make a more control tempo variant of Freeze Shaman.
Edit: It does help this card a bit that it can also deal face damage through the battlecry effect too. Doubling up the effect could wipe the board while dealing a fireball to face. I think Shaman still has enough stalls to make this happen, but we will find out if this card will matter at all.
Tommorow's news: All honor points gained today will be reset and restarted when the expansion releases.
Blizzard Dev 1: Oh no the patch released the Alliance vs Horde too early! The players will think it is a bug.
Blizzard Dev 2: We can rollback with the hotfix and then rerelease on the 7th.
Blizzard Dev 1: The players are already complaining about the grind even though they got the entire expansion to grind it out!
Blizzard Dev 2: We are in a pickle now while having to deal with Bobby Kotick's nonsense.
Blizzard CM (GnomeSayin): Guys, we can just treat this bug as an early xmas present for the player, so I will announce it in the forum that this was intentional. You guys can just hotfix it by already adding the legendary questline and giving the player an early start to the grind.
Hey, popping in to say that the event runs until the next expansion launches. A winner of AV is declared when the mini-set launches, but you can keep working towards rewards.
Considering turn 7 (on average) is when Rokara is played to bring out the Juggernaut, it will be better to play the hero card when lethal is within sight with the unstoppable force. This could empower Questline Warrior or create an aggro version without the quest.
With wild, Kabal Chemist can potentially give fel (via felfire potion) or holy (via greater healing potion) spell to empower the hero card a bit more with fel/holy spell school slot, but that is a tough task considering is wild unfriendly to these type of builds. At least with shadow, there is also puzzle box to contend with mask of c'thun for the shadow spell school slot. The hero card feels a bit meme. Most importantly, this card does not empower questline mage, it had enough empowering in the year of the gryphon.
Either this was recently added in the latest patch or the one before it, but Mask of C'thun does have a spell school now which is shadow. I took a screenshot of it and the image is in the link below.

Feels like the Horde were the real winner here. ;)

Blizzard Dev 1: GENIUS!
Blizzard Dev 2: For Gnomeregan!
I am hoping the non-golden can be crafted or unpacked.
So we might have time to grind this.
Is it possible to get Vanndar Stormpike non-golden down the road? With all the info dump happening this month, I might have missed it.
Watch out Warriors, Demon Hunters got it's own Restless Mummy now.
Maybe a better Restless Mummy
