I would feel better if it didn't summon a 5/5 so I can develop my board and they can't


Lol yeah they made that card way too powerful.

In terms of normal druid costs..

5/5 = 4-4.5 mana
5 cards = 7 mana
5 armor = 1 mana
5 damage = 3-4 mana

15-16 mana benefits for 10 cost

That's not even including the fact that it's all in 1 card instead of 4 cards.
Combining effects into one card normally makes it even more expensive. You're looking at 20+ mana for 10 cost.

Hunter 9 cost card gives you 9 mana benefits for 9 cost (3 animal companions). Probably like 12 mana for 9 cost considering it's one card. They also have poor control, poor draw, and poor sustain as a class so getting to 9 is difficult as is.

Yeah so it's basically like draw 8 cards lol.

Closest comparison is the old Ancient of Lore, it's like an Ancient of Lore except draw 3 extra cards, deal 5 damage, and gain 5 armor for 3 extra mana... in a class that has crazy ramp potential :rofl:

Wt were they thinking

Easiest brawl ever.
3-0 never broke a sweat.
Deck could still be improved a lot.

The card is OP I'm not going to deny that, but 5 armor on turn 10 not as strong as early game, 5/5 on turn 10, also not THAT strong, 5 damage is average, can kill a typical minion. draw 5 cards is very strong, but can mill you very fast especially if you have 2 UI. The problem is jade idol, that gives you infinite deck/value

What about an UI that was 3 armor, 3 cards, 3/3, 3dmg, for 8 mana?

Highrolled 15-4 with aggro druid an finally made it to legend
Farming all these jade druids was fun.
Killing then turn 5 while they ramped to 9 mana and had zero board was delicious. I regret the wasted time, tho. Super slow and exhausting grind this time
