    Okay but what's the point here? Like sure, if you draw both you trade one to get full value but...is there more to it? Is it really just a 4/3 that summons itself once?

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    I'm not seeing the potential of this card. You only get the value of 1 of your cards. If you somehow draw the 2nd copy, you are forced to cycle.

    hmmm, maybe in a cycle heavy deck? Where you value the tradable key word more than the DR.

    Bad card unless neutral/DH shuffle card will be revealed. Maybe is a hint for Elwynn Boar support?

    Cool card for Deathrattle DH to keep the Razorboar - Razorfen Beastmaster chain going, while not requiring more cards in hand. The Tradeable effect also assures that you'll never have the problem of having both in hand.

    OK for Deathrattle Demon Hunter but nothing more.

    Alright, so thanks to the tradeable keyword you can make sure you pull the other one from your deck with the deathrattle, or alternatively, for when you near the end of your deck you can put some nice deathrattle cards back into your deck so that they can be summoned by Death Speaker Blackthorn. Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if this goes right into that already existing Deathrattle Demon Hunter.

    Its likely an aggro card rather than something you'd stick into deathrattle dhunter.

    But really, it looks bad. Unless theres more ways to shuffle copies back into your deck, its never really going to see much play.

    I don't see the point of this. If you could duplicate this and shuffle (like with a Togwaggle's Scheme type card), you'd be in business. I guess we'll have to wait and see what else is coming. Anything that supports this will also support Elwynn Boar.

    This looks bad on it's own, but in conjunction with all of the other deathrattle support cards demon hunter has, this could definitely be played. It is another strong bundle of stats to be pulled by Razorfen Beastmaster, and you can also keep it in your deck to be pulled by Death Speaker Blackthorn

    For some reason I thought this card had Rush. I does not and that makes this card drastically worse.

    Tradeable actually enables this card in a interesting way. And DR DH is a thing, but not sure if this makes the cut, not very impactful, but it might be sometimes run

    The Deathrattle support that Demon Hunter is getting is amazing.  NOw if only it can be more viable

    Oooh, Deathrattle DH support... Naturally you're never meant to play it from hand, either through Razorfen Beastmaster, or Death Speaker Blackthorn, or through this card's own effect. Tradable helps with making sure the latter two is consistent, and also helps it from blocking certain Outcast cards like Skull of Gul'dan from being trapped awkwardly in the middle of the hand.

    All that said, it might drop out of lists in the refinement process for one simple reason: it's too vanilla otherwise. This is just a 4/3 that only makes another 4/3 exactly once. Even Renowned Performer has more impact since it has Rush and makes a pair of 1/1 Taunts, and Fishy Flyer always adds another 4/3 Rush to your hand and is revived with N'Zoth.

    Guess it makes it a bit stickier than a regular 4/3, and a tad more flexible too due to the tradable part - but yeah, that's about it

    if it was a demon you could copy it with Felosophy and then shuffle it, but not even that.

    This  seems like a decent card for deathrattle  demon hunter. Is it good enough to take a spot (two spots to really benefit from it) from the cards already in the deck? That remains to be seen.

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

    If you unfortunately have both copies in your hand, you can manage to use the deathrattle to make it works, it seems so dh deathrattle sinergy too,

    Seems alright for Deathrattle DH. Renowned Performer might still be better though.

    Fits in really well with Deathrattle Demon Hunter, can even guarantee the other copy is in the deck from the Tradeable keyword.

    I have a feeling non-N'Zoth versions of DR DH will run this card. Tradeable is always a good keyword and the aditional cycle is always appreciated.

    N'Zoth versions of DR DH, however, will still run the giga-chad Fishy Flyer.

    As far as I'm aware, DH doesn't do much copying, so I fail to see how this will be that great.

    Seems like a very interesting card that can be used in deathrattle DH. Can help thin out their deck, and with tradeable you can guarantee that one stays in the deck. But still i feel like deathrattle DH has better options. 

    Standard: Maybe deathrattle DH experiments with it, but i'm guessing that it wont see play unless it gets more support. The best support it could get is a way to shuffle more in deck, and it would be weird if they give DH a shuffle archetype. (which is mainly rogues thing honestly. (Honestly this feels so much like a rogue card that i had to rewrite this comment because i at first thought it was a rogue card lol.)

    Oh and for wild: EVEN cost so it wont see play i guess.

    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.

    It has its tradeoffs to other 4 drops in the DR deck but I think it takes the place of R Performer pretty well. That card isn't so great. 

     

    Also ppl are really sleeping on Tradeable. That edge of being a decent card that can also be 1 mana draw one is a huge benefit.

    Not bad for rattle DH, but the first copy is the only one that triggers.  So it's a weird inclusion into the deck considering the 2nd copy "does nothing"

    Def not a bad card, but the need to run two in a deck kinda hurts this.  I don't think this is better than Renowned Performer, and this is bad if both get pulled by Death Speaker Blackthorn at the same time.  Might be run in some Deathrattle decks, but not all.  Still a super cool idea tho, like the tradable aspect.

    So it's support for deathrattle DH with the tradeable mechanic. Not that exciting, but least you can trade one way back into your deck if you have another on board. It might just not be enough to see play though

    It's a decent card. I don't really see DRDH as a good deck... But the people tat play in Standard would have a better idea about it.

    Another somewhat sticky tool for Deathrattle Demon Hunter, which is great since there's a lot of leg room to fit in new cards into that deck

    I guess it guarantees you can summon itself from the other one and could maybe work with the Death Speaker, but overall I'm not impressed. I'd rather run more interesting Deathrattles, I think.
