These are the brainy murlocs. It turns out that doesn’t mean much.
Grimscale Oracle is a basic neutral murloc minion card.
How to get
Prior Year of the Gryphon's rotation on March 30, 2021:
- Two copies of Grimscale Oracle were automatically included in all players' collections upon unlocking the warlock class.
- Two Golden copies of Grimscale Oracle were a reward for raising a warlock to levels 53 and 54.
Strategy
At 1 mana for a 1/1 minion, Grimscale Oracle is a must in any Murloc rushing deck. With its passive of +1 attack to every other Murloc that you have, it can easily make the game get out of hand. This card coupled with Coldlight Seer can easily win games for you. Care must be taken when using this card however, since it boosts the attack of the opponent's murlocs as well as your own, should they have any.

- Grimscale Oracle - ALL other Murlocs gain +1 Attack

- Murloc Warleader - ALL other Murlocs have +2/+1
- Murloc Tidecaller - Whenever a Murloc is summoned, gain +1 attack
