Netheferious3 years ago Yea I have the opposite opinion, this card is too weak and not worth playing in big paladin despite the highroll potential.
Randomizer (creator)3 years ago I don't think the Alarm-o-bot highroll is too concerning, Alarm-o-bot is extremely easy to kill. Like, I can't think of a class that can't safely remove a 0/3 in one turn. Your concerns about pulling a Tirion on Turn 3 are kind of shared with the original Alarm-o-Bot, which costs 3.
I do get that the Secret trigger acts as a way to protect the Alarm-o-bot before the opponent can destroy it, but that Secret trigger is also a deck building and play condition. It also offers counterplay, as your opponent can identify Security Lasers as a threat if you have two or more Secrets in play, to which their response would be to save removal until they can trigger the secret and destroy the bot in one turn. Yes it's pretty good in the right setup, but Id imagine in practice it shares some flaws of the actual Alarm-o-bot.
Poondaedalin3 years ago This seems REALLY good in the right setup, since the Alarm-O-Bot would trigger on your turn, meaning your opponent has to kill it before the end of their turn or potentially deal with Tirion on Turn 3.
