With all the Armor and Mana druid can generate nowadays, I think they can afford a slower play if it can grind out a win later. I mean, in Ramp druid you sometime play Survival of the fittest for 10 Mana and feel good about it.

@Pandarious This would almost certainly be run in control decks, +2/+2 to ALL of your minions is especially good in slow decks that want to outvalue your opponent.

So yeah, these comments confuse the living hell out of me. This is unbelievably strong. The fact that "wherever" implies your tokens are buffed already makes this insane, but let's assume that was unintended for a moment. Your standard control deck runs off of value, the ability to pressure your opponent over time, and one of the best ways to do that is to push out stats that other control decks just can't remove fast enough. +2/+2 to all minions is certainly one way to pump out a continuous stream of value to do that, for a rather small requirement. If this is "slow," so is Shadowreaper Anduin.

Just because a card doesnt go into any preexisting decks doesnt make it a weak card. Guardian Animals doesnt fit into Spell Druid, the only Druid deck when it was revealed.

I think the effect is strong, but like I said, the issue is that it just doesn't fit in many decks. It won't be run in aggressive decks because it's too slow, I don't see it being run in control decks, and I'm not really sure if it's good enough to be run in midrange decks.

People seem to have an obsession with cards being “too slow” now even when it doesnt apply

I will repeat myself. This affects your board. Giving your board +2/+2 is worth 5-6 mana. There is absolutely no way this is weak.

I agree with Mzop, I think this is a weak card. Embiggen is much better, and you can run 2 copies of it. The additional cost to the card is somewhat irrelevant because you can cast it turn 1 and cheat out minions (via the quest, for example). This card is far too slow and I don't really see what deck it would fit in.

And from +1/+1 to +2/+2 is a huge difference

How is this a ever worse Mistcaller? Mistcaller can’t buff your board, only your hand and deck, which is a huge difference with this card.

Let's look at Druid.
Big boards, swarmy playstyle, but with the inclusion of Big Bad Minions. This can be corrupted much easier than Tickatus and provides a board buff AND hand/deck buff. If you want, we can go to +3/+3, but that might be too much power. Also, making a referance with stats was supposed to be a clever thing. Two mist-based minions, both 6 mana 4/4s, come on.

ahh i see, very interesting, but don't you think that basing a card of a very bad card is kinda a bad idea? i see how this is better, but a lot of the time you can't even corrupt this so its just a worse Mistcaller with a small chance to be better. seems pretty weak to me

It's not based on WoW, sadly. The stats are supposed to echo those of The Mistcaller.

o nvm i found the art
Mzop (3.7)3 years ago
is Nilan an actual wow chracater? cuz that would be cool. anyways i do like this card but it seems far to weak, to hard to corrupt and if you don't its not worth 6 mana, maybe make it a 5 mana 3/3. also can i get an art link for the first one?

Turns out, happy coincidence that two characters on Artstation happen to share the same coloured blue mist.

The mists of Pandaria. Created by the Sha of Pride, did you know? Nilan found out the hard way.
