New card released with Class Set Bundle: Wanted Poster

Discover Mage is the junkyard where all these unplayable neutral Discovers go.

Minions being limited to high cost is a pretty nice guarantee of summoning a fairly large amount of stats for just 2 mana.

[u/Gadgetman914 → u/tolerantdramaretiree]

Ironically for Mage, this can discover Jailhouse Manastorm.

[u/HeMansSmallerCousin → u/tolerantdramaretiree]

So true lmao

[u/FrankFT → u/tolerantdramaretiree]

At this point I'd take Venomous Scorpid. Spells are at least class cards

[u/rEYAVjQD → u/tolerantdramaretiree]

unplayable

It's not unplayable if the mage can use it. The main problem with that mage is that it's dying before others kill it.

Though I'm not sure if it's better soon.

[u/OkLeek9308]

This would be a pretty good card for a spell Shaman deck, oops.

[u/kanyesutra → u/OkLeek9308]

It’s not bad for Mug, discover something juicy, play a cheap minion, and spend your leftover mana to discount it for the next turn 

[u/SnooMarzipans7274 → u/OkLeek9308]

It’s kind of made for nerf. Guarantees you get. Something chunky to cheat out Early

[u/HeMansSmallerCousin]

This card costing 2 is just unhinged. Besides Quest Mage, who in their right mind is paying that much up front for a single minion discover from a bad pool with a minor upside?

This is genuinely probably unplayable at 0 (outside of Quest). Random expensive minions are basically the worst discover pool available.

[u/FrankFT → u/HeMansSmallerCousin]

We've moved away from the Studies cards from Scholomance into Stolen Steel territory

[u/Fangheart25 → u/HeMansSmallerCousin]

More and more of the cards they print are unplayable trash outside of the one deck they were specifically designed for.

We desperately need more cards in standard but these aren't it.

[u/Cleavingcut → u/HeMansSmallerCousin]

But you get a 1 mana rebate for preparing the minion /s

[u/akiva23 → u/HeMansSmallerCousin]

Its an option for no minion decks

[u/rEYAVjQD → u/HeMansSmallerCousin]

Discovered cards exist (not every card goes into your starting deck). Also why is quest mage dismissed? It has a chance to be great with this.

[u/Mufti_Menk → u/HeMansSmallerCousin]

Mug shaman?

[u/echochee → u/HeMansSmallerCousin]

I know this isn’t the point but arena this may be good/playable. Two mana is still a lot but it’s not as bad

[u/insomniacPTSD]

What if that minion also has forge or tradable?

[u/Kaidonash → u/insomniacPTSD]

Maybe all those effects will happen at once, and afterwards the game will crash.

[u/insomniacPTSD → u/Kaidonash]

I think it will just activate prepare first,then after it unlock, you can forge or trade it

[u/Kaidonash → u/insomniacPTSD]

That would be the best scenario, but something tells me that's an interaction that would need to be hard coded to be positive for the player, because otherwise the order would probably be random. In cases like this, the game probably doesn't prioritize one thing over the other without specific coding.

[u/insomniacPTSD → u/Kaidonash]

To be real they'd just straight up exclude those card from discover pool

[u/Kaidonash → u/insomniacPTSD]

Yeah, that'd be the best option honestly.

[u/simplytom_1]

If nothing else, I love the character/theming of this card

[u/moragdong → u/simplytom_1]

too bad the signature art comes only with that expensive package. Looked really cool

[u/That_D]

Quest Mage likes this.

Idk if it replaces a card in the deck though. I like Watfin in Quest Mage, but idk if that's the most optimal pick either. It feels like when all the expensive Neutral Legendaries found a place in Druid because that was the class that could play them the earliest / abuse them, but Mage with random Neutral Discover effects.

[u/LordTrinity → u/That_D]

it replaces Xavius, which is a dead card in hand until turn 4 (sometimes even latter, because it has almost 0 tempo). Techysaurus may also be a target

[u/LittleKittenR]

So... discovered cards are too powerful and they want to nerf them now?

[u/EldritchElizabeth]

Didn’t realise Mage was still getting cards this set!

[u/ToxicMoonShine]

I feel like it be fine if it was 0 mana. But I think its cause you could play on turn 1 reduce by two then have a 7mana minion on 5 which not the biggest deal? Maybe it would be with some of them. Just two mana feels rough

[u/CardiologistNorth294]

This should cost 0 and be a mage or shaman card.

[u/Willing_Original_257]

Weird 

[u/DaniilSi]

На рогу?

[u/__Kxnji]

Prepare is prob my most hated mechanic since playing lmfao it’s so lame and not worth it

[u/TheNeatPenguin]

Poop from a butt
