Chromaggus is a legendary neutral minion card, from the Blackrock Mountain set.

Fixed bugs

 * Prior to Patch 7.1, Chromaggus would not interact with non-standard ways of drawing a card, such as Sense Demons, King's Elekk or Captain's Parrot.

Strategy
Unlike Ysera, Chromaggus usually has to survive until the start of your next turn to get the guaranteed value of duplicating a drawn card. However, there are ways to guarantee value:


 * Use Dragon Consort to play Chromaggus for 6 instead of 8 mana, letting you combo draw effects or play a card that protects Chromaggus on the same turn such as Argent Protector.
 * Use the spare part Finicky Cloakfield or the rogue spell Conceal to Stealth Chromaggus for one turn.
 * Use cheap or pre-existing draw effects on the field, such as Blessing of Wisdom, Acolyte of Pain or Loot Hoarder.

Chromaggus is a slow card and offers no advantage against an aggro opponent, so it becomes more useful the more control-oriented your deck is, the more control-oriented the meta is and the more draw you have in your deck.

''One of the most challenging aspects to Chromaggus is the randomness of his abilities. As the name suggests (the word chromatic is derived from "khroma", the Greek word for "color", suggesting Chromaggus takes his powers from s of all colors), Chromaggus shimmers in a variety of colors, which relate to his current abilities. These abilities are determined upon instance creation, and will only be reset with the instance timer.
