    Rotling

    So, this little guy interests me. Remove ally in your graveyard to give +1 +1. Does this stack? Ie you remove 2 allies from graveyard for +2 +2 ?

    Because if it does, late game this bad boy could come out a 10/10 or more for 1 casting cost. He'd be more of a giant rotter, than rotling!

    I think target ally is singular.

    Yes, but summoned 12 turns in, I then remove say 5 allies from my graveyard, he's then 6/6 for 1cc.

    I suspect as unruler says it's one singular ally....but might need clarifying. Thanks

    It is just one ally, so the max buff is +1/+1. He's still bigger than a Fire Snake though. In fact, you could open with Fire Snake and when they all die to Snake Charmer you can play Rotling and hit the board at 2/2 for 1cc.

    Dont think this guy will see much play, humans have better 1CC ally, Twilight tribe herald (who can buff CC2 drop better then Aldon). which looks pretty great and I suppose this one will be played a lot. Actually still see a bit unbalance between human/shadow 1CC drops (all humans 1CC are played/playable), while shadows play only rarely Fire snake (elemenals mostly). Not that I mind

    I agree Rotling is not a very good ally worse than Fire Snake IMO (ok fine everything is worse than FS and that is not an opinion) rather it is not very good solely as an ally but I think it might find a use as really cheap graveyard manipulation if it was from either graveyard the card might even become OP. As it is only from your graveyard I do not think it will see that much play yet but if graveyard manipulation becomes very important it would not surprise me if many decks start including 4x of this guy.

    I needed to mention it anyway as it is better against Kris.
