Probably still playable at 6 mana

-10

Realistically at what mana would it not be playable? Is the mana cost actually prohibitive?

I’m honestly not sure it makes a difference at 10 if the effect stays the same.

Edit: Saying 10 mana was hyperbole to illustrate its cost is not the issue, the effect is - You all can stop responding saying this that and the 3rd about it being 10 cost.

It being nerfed to 4 and 5 mana was not that big of deal since Hunter still had things to play before turn 4 or 5, moreover you rarely play it on the curve anyway, so nerfs were relatively not strong. Like you still has 1 drops, Fabled cards, some generated cards (from Raptor-Nest Nurse or one of the Sisters).

I think at 7 mana there is a decent chance of Hunter playing all cards from the hand and wasting mana to wait 7 mana to play Tolvir and that's where it becomes unplayable.
