An insect, an idol, and some Darwinism. Here are the latest three Mean Streets cards.

It's the second day of the Jade Lotus' week, as the faction steps more and more out of the shadows.

On Twitter, Team Celestial's manager Sinn posted an image of the Jade Wanderer. Later it became known that a Chinese website, NGA, was the one to reveal the card. For 2 mana a stealth 1/1 is summoned, with a deathrattle that summons a Jade Golem. As became known yesterday, the Jade Golem is a minion which increases in strength every time it's summoned. This means that the first Jade Golem is a 1/1, but the second will be a 2/2, the third a 3/3 etc., all the way up to a 30/30. The Jade Wanderer finds nice synergy with [card]Unearthed Raptor[/card], and its stealth allows the player which it controls to have more control over when the deathrattle triggers. Alongside [card]Aya Blackpaw[/card] it might be seen in some new N'Zoth Rogue deck.

G2's ThijsNL had a card to reveal too, and did so on his YouTube channel. The Jade Idol finds a middle way between the Druid's characteristic 'choose one' effect and the Jade Lotus' Golem effect. The Jade Idol allows itself to be copied infinitely, and looks to take huge advantage of the increasing strength of the Jade Golem. As goes for all 'choose one' cards, the Jade Idol becomes incredibly powerful when combined with [card]Fandral Staghelm[/card]. Another nice combination is found with a resident of Gadgetzan we've known for a long time: the [card]Gadgetzan Auctioneer[/card].

Polygon came with a new Shaman spell: Devolve. An exact opposite to Whispers of the Old Gods' [card]Evolve[/card], the spell creates a potentially huge disadvantage for one's opponent. That said, summoning a [card]Doomsayer[/card] on your opponent's side might also happen, so take care when playing with Darwin's theories.
