Really good in my buff Priest.
nice take on Sunwalker
A discounted Sunwalker? Why not?
Some of the reviews here make me think that people missed that this card has TAUNT, DIVINE SHIELD
Getting Thing from Below vibes but hell, 4 atk is better than 5 when it comes to Priest.
This card is just good. Like one or two buffs and this is literally one of the best cards to play ever.
I think that even if you can discount this by only 1 mana it's already good enough. I'm not sure if Priest can make a good deck that can do that consistently, but Paladin has Hand of A'dal so it may fit into decks that don't use Librams as well.
Meh. This card is only really good when your Buff Paladin is already firing on all cylinders. If you're playing this for cheap, you're already doing well, i.e. this is win-more. If you're in the more likely situation of having trouble sticking a minion to play your buffs on, this is another very expensive minion that doesn't help get you going.
How is this expensive??
u only need to discount once. 5 mana taunt with divine shield 4/5 can stop aggro on its tacks
Decent if uninteresting.
Its basically a card for libram paladin since thats probably the only deck that can get this card to within 2-0 mana most of the time at an adequate time frame. It might just make the cut of pure libram paladin, but a little too weak for non-pure decks.
Pretty sure this card is bad -
First off, I doubt anyone thinks this will see play in Priest. The buff spells Priest plays are in general too big to be able to get this out early, so Galakrond Priest doesn't want this (and also why would they even want a 4/5 to begin with). The only Priest deck running small spells is Tempo Priest, but that deck needs early game, not a card which is conditional on you having played other cards - that deck's biggest weakness is card draw, so having a dead card is devastating.
Paladin is where this is mostly considered, but looking at Libram Paladin I'm not convinced this goes in. Think about this card versus control and then aggro. Against Control, Libram Paladin doesn't have the early game to curve out and kill their opponents, so a lot of the time you play to a kind of value-y slow burn, where you chip them down over time by using heal to maintain board control. If you look at the deck, it lacks strong 6 and 7 drops to finish out a game. Playing a 0 mana 4/5 could help here, but only if it's 0-2 mana. When I'm playing Libram Pally, if I don't draw Libram of Wisdom, I'm playing 2-3 spells on my minions before turn 7. And if your strategy is only good when you draw another card, especially in a class like Paladin which lacks card draw, I doubt it'll be good.
Against aggro, we need to consider how often we can stick buffs on our minions. The answer is not much. Most forms of Aggro right now are close to Midrange strategies - they trade. Which means your Yeti is coming down too late to impact the board most of the time. This card is made even slower because it lacks keywords which interact with enemy minions. Our win condition is healing and taunting, and this card does neither.
Overall, unless fast aggressive buffs are printed for Paladin or Priest I don't quite see this card making the cut.
Hmmm. I'm a dumbass. The card has taunt and divine shield.
Don't be like me kids.
i love dekkster but what was that cringe start?!
Poor Dekkster had his reveal overshadowed by Blizzard dumping a blog post with 9 cards, such a shame since the video was pretty nice too.
Card is super sweet though, can't wait to get my hands on it.
Huge for Paladin, mildly interesting for Priest
Cards with self discounts are usually pretty strong and this could easily fit into many archetypes for both classes. Libram Paladin gets to benefit the most but Priest could make a good use of this as well.
Hey, another good card for Libram Paladin!
Buffadin... Cube priest can make use of this too I suppose...
I'm glad Dekkster is starting to make waves in HS community. I love watching him play.
