Comment by 1236752Looks good. It provides a reasonable body, even if the effect does not trigger.Comment by ScaduzI see Druid C'Thun being strong with all of their targeted spells.Comment by 1350725Hrm...I'm assuming, like the other -related cards that have been revealed, that this works even if is still in your deck, but what happens if you've already played and had it removed? At that point, you no longer have a , so would the buff no longer apply?

Also--and this just occurred to me while writing the above--what happens if a priest uses or on his opponent's ? Does the stolen one have the same buff as the priest's original?Comment by 1535765Since Druid can ramp very well, I can see this class as viable for strong C'yhun themed decks.Comment by YourGod42It is strong even without the buff; Chillwind Yeti used to be a strong Druid card.Comment by GoldenFoxKlaxxi was made by Yi'sharag, but still buffing C'thun instead of Yi'sharag. Neet made loreComment by lordphoenixYeah, that is weird. Why would a Klaxxi buff C'thun?
I can understand if it buffs all the Old Gods, but why C'thun in particular, especially Y’Shaarj (their god) and 2 more old gods exist in this set?Comment by akumaxxHrm...I'm assuming, like the other -related cards that have been revealed, that this works even if is still in your deck, but what happens if you've already played and had it removed?

I hope there's more.Comment by Marteen21Hrm...I'm assuming, like the other -related cards that have been revealed, that this works even if is still in your deck, but what happens if you've already played and had it removed?

From programming perspective, I assume every players gonna have an counter which is incremented with every card. So if even if the priest entombes it the stats would not go to him, and it doesnt matter if your Cthun dies or anything like that.Comment by HandrosY'Shaarj was killed by the Titans a long time ago, so I guess he won't be one of the Old Gods in this expansion, and the Klaxxi are actually related to the Qiraji from Ahn'Qiraj who worshipped C'thun, so I guess it's not that far-fetched that Klaxxi appear related to C'thunComment by GreySageY'Shaarj was killed by the Titans a long time ago, so I guess he won't be one of the Old Gods in this expansion, and the Klaxxi are actually related to the Qiraji from Ahn'Qiraj who worshipped C'thun, so I guess it's not that far-fetched that Klaxxi appear related to C'thunComment by 749141Y'Shaarj was killed by the Titans a long time ago, so I guess he won't be one of the Old Gods in this expansion, and the Klaxxi are actually related to the Qiraji from Ahn'Qiraj who worshipped C'thun, so I guess it's not that far-fetched that Klaxxi appear related to C'thun
