@CakeIsGood You Enslave soul (steal it) and as lomg as you have the soul the body of a minion will obey you, however, that minion will be only a Husk of itself without a soul (it remains silenced).

No I mean, it sounds like a wise quote of card designer

Ah oky, I'm sorry XD
Well, maybe this can be read as silencing the minion's soul :tinyfin:

'the soul of a card isnt its stats but the effect'

that wasnt what i meant :tinyfin:
i meant that the effect of the card is more the soul of the card but you dont get the effect because you silence it so you only get the body and the card is named enslave soul witch kinda dont make sense to me

I agree with you, but this *silence* the minion, so stats do matter :tinyfin:
You don't play this just to silence the enemy minion, you have a 1 mana spell in priest doing that. I like this at 6 mana, but I also agree with those who say it could easily be 7 :)

In before making a vanilla 1 Mana 7/7 :annoy-o-tron:
But yes, in this case the stats seem worth a 2 mana tax on Drown

Well, "some stats" can include 1/1 like 12/12 :tinyfin:

Drown is a Silence + Destroy, except the minion doesn't even die which is even better and that for 4 mana. If we add 2 mana on this, some stats seem fine

What does drown have to do with it? :boomS:
With this you gain the minion itself on the board, with drown to the maximum you can draw it :jaraxxus-thinking:

Just realised: With Drown at 4 mana 6 mana is fine :chicken:

@Caesar I guess that works too, even if Najakk is a Legendary. I would like it more at 7 at this point but 6 can also work I guess.

Silence is a downside but you still hard remove an enemy minion without it dying and get some stats
Caesar (4.1)1 year ago
If we consider Najakk+Focused Will it's 2 cards, 5 Mana and a 1/7 :annoy-o-tron:
This feels like 6 or 7 to me (single target removal needs to be soo good to be usable)

If we consider Silence as a downside, can that justify a 6-mana cost?

this would be a pretty strong card in arena. in ranked tho i think its fine as is, maybe a bit strong.

I think 7 mana is fair

Starting from Mind Control - Silence, I'd say 9.
Starting from Azsharan Ritual + Assassinate, I'd also say 4 + 4 + it's a single card so 9 still.
Let's say big spell makes this cheaper overall, let's say we take Power Word as a comparison rather than Assassinate or that we value Sunken Ritual another mana: 7/8.

6 mana is probably too cheap.

Interesting. idk, maybe it's fine. I want to hear opinions. For me, is nice, maybe 7 mana.
