Rain of Toads

Rain of Toads is a common shaman spell card, from the Rastakhan's Rumble set.

Strategy
Rain of Toads can be compared with Spreading Plague, both are useful against aggressive decks, however, Rain of Toads can also be used proactively against an opponent with a slower deck, while Spreading Plague cannot. Rain of Toads can also be seen as a more expensve version of Feral Spirit, spawining 3 2/4 minions instead of 2 2/3 minions at the cost of 3 more mana and 1 more overload.

Rain of Toads is best used in a Control Shaman deck, or combined with overload synergies, being able to upgrade the Lesser Sapphire Spellstone on its own. Rain of Toads can also be a finisher to a Token Shaman deck, along with Bloodlust, or less commonly, The Storm Bringer.

Lore
Rain of Toads is reminiscent of the removed World of Warcraft shaman  and the  toy that replaced it, both of which allow shaman players to call down a rain of frogs at a target location.
