Mark of the Lotus

Mark of the Lotus is a common druid spell card, from the Mean Streets of Gadgetzan set.

Strategy
This spell fits well in an aggro deck that tries to flood the board with small minions (e.g. using Murloc Tidehunter, Living Mana, or Living Roots, then boost their stats with cards such as Savage Roar, Evolving Spores, or this. It's more efficient than Power of the Wild for this purpose, but not as flexible.

This card can be used with Violet Teacher to boost her apprentices while making their numbers grow. Because the apprentice is summoned before the spell effect is applied, the apprentice summoned when you cast this will also receive the boost.

Trivia

 * This card is possibly based on Prayer of Fortitude, a Priest card removed in the game's alpha.
 * This card has the same effect as Power of the Wild's Leader of the Pack, but for 1 mana.
