When Smokey Sings, I get Violent

Quest

During your turn, destroy When Smokey Sings, I get Violent and pay 5 to complete this quest.

Reward: Target opponent destroys one of his resources.

Holy crap.  Wowzers.  All that god stuff.  Pay 5, sac a resource, destroy a resource.  This is pretty crazy.  Obviously, this card won't find a home in EVERY deck, but if you are playing a deck that doesn't require a high amount of resources to run, this card should find its way into it.

Sealed: 2/5  A bit too risky to play in sealed, as you'll be losing a resource too.

Constructed: 4/5  If you are playing a fast deck that doesn't need more than 4 or 5 resources, this card is great.  Assuming your opponent is playing a slower deck, you can slow it down even more.  :)

Casual: 4/5 In multiplayer casual, you'll have plenty of time to get the resources that you'll need, and with this card, you can really mess your opponent up.

Raid:  3/5  In Onyxia, this won't be too helpful, but in MC, when the bosses only have a few turns to get resources, this'd be great.

WHEN SMOKEY SINGS. . . .

 

Personally, I don’t like hardly any of the new quests in FOO.  Some of the commons are ok, but the rares just don’t seem to have the pop that a rare should have.

 

Enter popless quest #1. When Smokey Sings, I get violent.

 

This one costs you 5 resources, during your turn only, and you have to destroy this quest.  Then your opponent destroys one of their own?  Basically you both destroy a resource, but you have to exhaust 5 to make that happen.  I don’t see this quest as making it into any tournament winning deck.  Why give your opponent the chance to put a big ally that he resourced into his graveyard so he can Chase it back to his hand?

 

The ONLY combo for this right now is with Morlug Soulslaver that does 1 damage when you destroy one of your resources.  Awful for constructed.

 

Sealed:             2.0

Constructed:     1.0

Casual:             2.5

Raid:                            4.0 Might shine here, especially later in MC raid.

 
turkeyspit When Smokey Sings, I Get Violent

I don't get this card to be frank. Essentially you have to pay 5 during your turn, destroy this card (a resource), all to force your opponent to destroy one of their resources.

The question that troubles me is: why? What's the point? The only situation that I can think of to do this would be when you have more resources then your opponent, in which case, why would you worry about destroying theirs?

------------------------------------

Sealed, Constructed, Casual and Raid: 1/5 across the board.
