  • Not good enough in today's day

  • Like the other card in the basic set but better

  • NOt bad to summon and 2 damage punch to a minion and leave behind a decent minion

  • this reminds me of the classic 3 mana deal 2 damage 2/1 minion cards. Spring Rocket, Disciple of C'Thun, Argent Horserider etc. obviously better with +1/+1 stats, but still I doubt that this will see play. since the game has become a synergy game only.

  • looks kinda strong 3 mana 5/3 with deal 2

  • Arena card, but at least we have pigs again

  • Ok card. Maybe more arena type

  • I don't think this will see play in constructed. 

  • Such a cute card, but not good enough for standard.

  • Probably a arena card, unfortunatly. Those hogs look so cute :)

  • Just an arena card mostly. That said it looks a little closer to playable than most arena cards.

  • Lovely card, but not much power.

  • three years ago it was good. Now it's not enough

  • good

  • good for aggros

  • That pig is just adorable

  • Interesting early removal

  • Solid card

  • Meh

  • mana is too much

  • INCREDIBLE AND CUTE

  • Nice

  • 3 mana 3/2 deal 2 damage to a minion is decent but not good enough

    • the pig is even cuter on his own card!

  • Huh. This is a lot better than it looks

  • That piglet has Rush and somehow the other 2/3 + 1/1 fearsome boar card doesn't have it.

  • The stats are real! Arena value card!

  • Decent card, 2 minions and 5/3 stats combined.

  • fine

  • Mediocre packer filler, which is fine. There could have been worse. 

  • Good arena card, but I don't think it will be good enough in arena.

  • Great removal and good stats

  • I like this, even though it's not busted enough. It could fill out a slot for a deck that needs a rusher and early board presence. 

  • go take a look at the rush hog card art and tell me u don't want to play this card!

  • Feels like an only arena card.

  • Arena only, but very good there.

  • Quite a while ago, a 3 mana 3/2 that dealt 2 damage was really good. Nowadays though, I'm not so sure.

  • If Knife Juggler was in Core Set, this could've been in Zoo decks.

  • Could be pretty fun for Token decks, and honestly it isn't that bad for a regular aggressive deck. Good number of stats, and a little bit of Rush. I don't think it's going to set the world on fire but it might actually make it into some decks. (Evolve Shaman isn't still a thing, right? Gosh I hope not)

  • Love the name, but doubt this sees play.  

  • Bug Collector, but a little bigger. That card has seen little play, so I don't know about this one.

  • Super average card. I hate to say cards are filler, but this feels like filler.

  • Won't see play outside of Arena.

  • Hog rider with an upside

  • Don't think it's good enough to put in your deck. 

  • i love it! but i am biased towards hogs 

  • I bet the token is super cute 
    Oik oik!

  • Ok card.

  • Pack filler imo

  • Bug Collector 2.0

  • good for aggro and arena, love it

  • I bet, we will not see it in constructed, but in Arena, it might be a good pick.

  • 3 mana 5/3 stats - great aggro minion

    Just a Bug Collector upgraded.

  • Decent.


    Good for Arena and i think this could suit some Budget Decks.

    • Zoo wants to: Know your location

  • Not so full on this one

  • Another filler card, but with the added value that the Hog has 2 attack.

    That's good but not a broken card. It's really good in arena though.

  • pack filler

  • Pretty good value for a common. Not bad, but not OP enough to see play?

  • Cute little hog. Instant 5 stars. This is going to break the meta. Your opponent either concedes out of pity, or loses one turn from laughing. Either way, you still get to view that cute little hog for all its worth.

  • Love this :)

    5/3 for 3 mana.

    Can just see wanting to drop a 3/2 body and clear their 2-health taunt. Then attack with last round's 2-drop.

  • Pretty nice tempo card

  • It's decent, but the artwork for the Hog makes it even more decent..

  • The piggy seems cute 

  • 3 Mana 3/2 deal 2 to a minion OR 3 Mana 5/3 - Seems like a decent pick in Arena.

    Also, cute Piggy.

  • Good arena card,  you will never play this in any deck for sure in constructed.

  • good

  • Similar enough to a Neutral SI:7 Agent that this could see play

  • Staple in arena, but aside from that, pretty meh.

  • Decent card for the stats and battlecry could see play in aggro decks possibly ramp

  • In a token deck like druid it could be ok, its more a meme card with a pig than something else

  • An arena god and cutie

  • I like the double body.

  • In arena will shine since on turn 3 you can trade all X/2 minion and have a 3/2 on board. In contructed can find a spot in some token and agro deck

  • Seems surprisingly good? Like, 3 mana 5/3 deal 2 damage? When you say it like that it sounds broken.

  • I don´t like this one personally, good for early removal tho.

  • More of an Arena card, doesn't really have synergies with anything

  • Only good for arena.

  • Not enough good for nowadays HS. We have many other, better cards 

    • Quote From Horus

      I bet the token is super cute 
      Oik oik!

      You'd be correct.

      Hog Card Image

  • I think this is pretty good and I love the cute pig in the artwork.

    • Seems alright, now we just have to see if alright is enough to cut it.

  • fine for arena. also cute pig

  • Good arena card, not worth it for standard ladder.

  • Gonna squeeze my hog to this

  • good card

    • Quote From burgoskid

      good card

      So every card is a good card?

  • Could help in an evolve deck but unlikely

  • Decent utility card. An understatted body with an extra attach token ping.

  • Just ok. Decent if discovered. Fine in arena maybe? Not great. 

  • I'd say this is a decent card from a value perspective.  Unfortunately, since the initial minion doesn't have rush (just the token) I worry that it will be too slow, since it gives your opponent the opportunity to trade into it and then take out the hog before you can make use of its rush.

  • Arena only

  • arena card.

    Didn't expect such a simple card to be so cool, but still bad. Arena, yeah.

  • Too slow.

  • If the Hog didn't have rush this would be about as common as Dragonling Mechanic. Still not amazing, but the token is a Beast, so maybe with Scavenging Hyena?

  • It's a basic common, could have been a core card than barrens

  • Arena card much like many neutrals.

  • 3 mana 3/2 deal 2 (with mild restrictions) is alright, but probably not going to see too much play. Zoo and Aggressive decks have much better options.

  • Amazing card. Will definitely see play. A 3 mana 3/2 with deal 2 is great. 

    Also it has a pig! Always a plus.

    Too slow with an effect that is not that good.

  • Just okay

  • Looks like decent card. I think this will see play in a 4 set meta.

    3/2 body + 2 damage removal is good tempo

  • This kind of looks promising when compared to similar cards like Hench-Clan Hogsteed that saw fringe play, but ultimately I don't think Hog Rancher has enough inherent synergy for any strategy to warrant an inclusion in a competitive deck.
