hearthstone The Storm Bringer Reveal: The Boomsday Project

The Legendary Shaman spell can evolve your minions into Legendary ones!

According to u/VdeVenancio on Reddit, The Storm Bringer was revealed in a promotional email by Blizzard:

Contarary to the other Legendary card for Shaman, Electra Stormsurge,  The Storm Bringer falls flat. Random Legendary minions aren't as good as they sound. Similar cards like Toki, Time-Tinker and Prince Liam never really saw serious play and decks with Rotface aren't exactly tier 1 material, either. You can perhaps use this in a Token deck, combined with Primal Talismans, but at 7 mana this is way too slow.

Am I underestimating this card? Let me know in the comments and don't forget to check out our Boomsday Project hub!

The real problem is twofold:

1) this is not like evolve where it's based on cost.    You could have an 8 mana minion out and it turns to Prince Kelesith

2) Similar to #1, many (most) legendaries have a battlecry as the bulk of their power.    This gets you nothing but random stat sticks fairly often.

3) there are a lot of meme useless legendaries. This is even more true in wild.

Some years ago I remember playing a control warrior using the golden monkey as a finisher. If you do it nowaday, you'll fill your deck and hand with useless cards.

its not that bad, but u want to transform a bunch of low cost cards like totems. but still nothing special. some people may like the RNG of it !
