Why? Please provide your reasoning.

If you were to put mitosis on this card it would be insane especially combined with feral bond. I like the ability idea of this card reminds me of one of my favorite cards from another card game.

I wish people would read threads before they post in them.
If something happens and you think it deserves my attention, feel free to PM me. Other than that, I'm probably here if you want to shoot the breeze.

Lol I've read the entire thread and my verdict is it's not OP. Still this card is scary strong with killa combinations  :)

Okay, please pardon the necroing, but I feel there is relevance, having tried this in action in openEtG (granted meta is different). I can say that this definitely gives life a much needed card. Being able to field many creatures at once is indeed a major life saver when coupled with empathic bonds / feral bonds.
Being able to pop out more cards on entering play is also a very amusing counter to RT.

The healing is indeed very powerful with feral bond. Having played it against various AI's I can say that the mito combo actually doesn't seem as strong as I first thought. Its potent, but the cost keeps it pretty balanced and in practice I've found the better strategy is to use mito on other creatures instead.
Yes, mito wolves can indeed give massive healing. However, doing so saturates your field with low attack creatures. In practice, the better use seems to be to use wolves to get early to mid game healing boosts then use mito on harder hitting creatures (upped frog / cockatrice or dragons).
With 6 wolves in a deck, you end up with 18 creatures. That seems to be more than enough.
Also, despite this potency, it is still quite vulnerable to mass CC. At 2 hps, there are a lot of counters that can be pretty effective
-Thunderstorm, firestorm, upped dryspell, pandamonium, pharaoh+scarabs, skull shield (although I'm a little iffy on the RNG interaction) and even fireshield.
In decks based around wolves, all of those tend to be pretty devestating.
Also, the low attack means that there are several shields that will stop their damage.

All in all, I think its a pretty well balanced card. Its very useful for burst creature spawn, but its relatively low attack and hps keep it from being OP. I think it would make a wonderful addition to life.

Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?
If your zombie plan is
kill -9 `ps l | awk '{print $2" "$3" "$9}' | grep "Z" | awk '{printf("%s ",$2)}'`
You might be a unix junky
