    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.

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

    At this point I have spent too much money on these games to quit. 

    Now pass me another pack, and lets see what I pull.

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

    RNG is only fun as long as there is a 50/50 chance of getting something really good or trash level of bad. If RNG always results in something good, then it's not fun.

    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.

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

    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)

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    Good arena card, not worth it for standard ladder.

    So every card is a good card?

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

    Unfortunately, common sense isn't as common as it should be.

    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.

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

    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?

    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.

    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.

    For glory, honor, and gold!
