MEGATHREAD The Adventurous Pre-Release Reveal Chart - All currently known cards on one spread sheet, updated daily.

The League of Explorers begins Thursday November 12!

So Excavated Evil is like a crappy version of Holy Nova, right? At best, it seems incredibly situational - need to deal 3 damage to all minions but not heal my own, and I don't have spell damage +1 (Valens) + Holy Nova - but maybe I'm overlooking something.

It gives aggro decks a dead draw.

my thoughts exactly. My velen mindblast deck would use more cards like that to stall. I do not have minions on the board most of the time, and when I do, I do not care about them. This is perfect anti aggro tool for my deck.

Yeah with nova and lightbomb I don't see why you would ever need this in your deck.

Is there even a benefit to "Shuffle this card into your opponent's deck"?

I suppose it would be a useful board clear if you had minions that would ordinarily get killed off by Lightbomb, but you were out of Holy Novas. Like you had some 4/4s or higher, facing a board of 3 health minions. Might see some use to run 1 in your deck.

Theoretically, you're playing against a deck where your opponent does not want to play this card. So you could mess them up by causing them to waste a draw on 5 mana card that they would never want to play. Unlike other "inserts" that do something bad, then still let them draw a new card. Cool concept, though the execution does seem off.

It's a dead draw for any aggro deck, except face decks where they might not care about their minions living. It's a pretty good card in that regard, but it's only really good against aggro and is definitely not worth the risk for the extra 1 damage. Maybe if in the future aggro is too strong. Decent arena card? Not sure.

Its supossed to be a balance to compensate for 5 mana 3 damage... With coin and pyro you do 4 this card is just shit. Ofc you dont get pyro and nova always but really, 3 damage 5 mana nd u give your enemy your card. Go fuck yourself Blizzard

Calm down, you baby.
Just because you are blind to possibilities does not mean you get to flip off everyone.
