One of the leaked cards I see. Thing is, this reminds me of the typical 4 mana 2/6 taunts, which aren't really good enough, but I'm curious to see what type of reborn synergies we will see in the nearest future. I think this is quite good in arena (mostly in priest).
Looking pretty nice. Might put this in my wild taunt druid deck.
I compare it to sludge belcher. That was a very good taunt minion. I don't know, which ones better, but I think, this one might be very good in taunt decks.
Hmm, but in which exactly?
Unlike dib, I don't think that adding this in wild taunt druid would be a good idea, because the player would just minimize the chances of getting The Lich King or any of the other beefy taunts from Hadronox. In wild, quest warrior has better taunts to choose from (+ I have stumbled upon some odd quest decklists, where Bone Wraith wouldn't fit). In the standard handbuff archtype I could see some synergies, but I personally think that warrior would concentrate on a mech package again (and for now only Armagedillo and Frightened Flunky would be the exceptions in that deck). I could be wrong and the Wraith might end up being included in the list, but that's why I want to see the reborn synergies we would hopefully receive in the nearest future, as well as the rest of the set.
[Note] Sludge Belcher was indeed a strong taunt, but right now it's only good because of N'Zoth, the Corruptor. And the wraith doesn't offer deathrattle synergies.
very good. We will see it a lot
On a second thought, I take my words back. If warrior is going to create a mid-range buff deck, the mechs won't be alone. So ok, I admit, that I was wrong and Wraith could see some competitive play in standard.
Sludge Belcher v0.0.954 :) Still a solid taunt for the cost. There arent that many good taunts, so expect this to see plenty play.

It's a strong defensive minion.
Yeah I agree with the comparison to Sludge Belcher this is probably the card people have been asking for as a defensive early minion since Tar Creeper rotated out.
it's 1 less mana than Sludge Belcher but -1 attack and the "deathrattle" is a 2/1(injured max 5) instead of a 1/2. I think the fact that you can't kill it in one go and it resist AOE is good enough to include in any none aggro deck looking to defend against aggro.
it fits in both taunt warrior and reborn paladin decks how viable those decks will be? who knows.
Control warlock currently would like this card as well.
A very strong tool against aggro decks the 2/5 stat line is decent but the reborn making it come back as a 2/1 is real strong, even though this card doesn’t look too exciting it is definitely worth looking at when build a control decks
Good in Arena I suppose but not strong enough for Ladder.
worst community ever
It doesnt look like much, but I think card is really good. Neutral taunt, takes 2 hits minimum - will def see play. Arguably, best neutral taunt in Standart atm ( Zilliax aside )
This deck is cool. Play it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Mark my words, reborn is going to be good for priests. They will be the only class able to consistently capitalize on the reborn effect giving minions 1 health. They will be able to trade, and then heal up the reborn minion to gain more value out of the card. Priest is going to be a top pick I bet in constructed.
Honorable mention will go to heal druid and paladin. Druid probably wishes this card had 1 more health so it can trigger the +5 healing needed for Lucentbark, but still, something to worth noting.

Do I like this more than Proud Defender? Yes.
Do I like this more than Tar Creeper? No.
Do I like this more than Saronite Chain Gang? No, but it's close.
I'll go out on a limb and say this card is likely much better than it appears, and might even be very good.
Why? Many people compare it to Sludge Belcher (rightfully, IMO), which was very strong.
This is an auto include in the paladin quest. It is one of the best reborn minions revealed so far, but that quest still needs better options if it is going to be competitive.
I think this will be a staple card in priest.
