- The replacement minion is selected randomly from all collectible minions that cost 1 less, regardless of class.
- The base mana cost of the affected minion is used to determine the selection, not the mana cost paid when summoning it.
- If there is no minion of the intended cost to transform the target into, the spell will use the nearest possible cost for the transformation.[1] This currently applies to all minions minions with 20 or 25 Mana cost (
Molten Giant, and 
Shirvallah, the Tiger). - 0-mana minions will transform into other 0-mana minions, which can include itself.
Lore[edit | edit source]
The opposite of 
Evolve, this card seemingly represents a spell that causes targets to "devolve" into more primitive lifeforms. The card art appears to depict the three crime bosses of Gadgetzan — 
Don Han'Cho (left), Aya Blackpaw (center) and Kazakus (right) — being transformed into murlocs.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- While Evolve's visual effect is colored blue with a tinge of purple, this card's effect is colored bluish green, creating a sharp contrast between the the two cards.
