Stonetusk Boars say Hi!
Struggle with Heroic Galakrond's Awakening? I got your back :
This is sooooo ridiculous. With the availability of Rush minions and Charge being around for general use... this is just scary to see them set up a turn with at least 3 8/8's coming out. or even just one at a time
OR... here me out... the following turn you go Tundra Rhino and 2x Young Dragonhawk... huh?!
Quick! Someone give me something clever to write here.
Its good, but not sure if its going to be a whole deck itself.
The combo potential in wild is practically moot. You'll never last 8 turns realistically in wild and hunter doesn't need it to win anyway.
In standard however, there's only really 1 charge card and that's Freebird, a dead card in hand until this is played and the joke is you dont even immediately win with it. So what are we left with? Playing Wisps?
Its the 31st card in the deck. Only XL decks would play it, because unless the new set introduces more cards that specifically do well with this one, I'd rather just play Lor'themar Theron, a card that's 1 mana cheaper and infinitely more powerful.
Looks fun! I can see some Bonelord Frostwhisper shenanigans unfold, similar to the Cage Head stuff that surfaced shortly in Standard. Also don't forget that Hollow Hound gives Hunter lots of survival so it isn't that hard anymore to reach turns 8-10, even in Wild.
I notice I am confused. Something I believe isn't true. How do I know what I think I know?

This comes out late, but damn, that can be a lot of stats for very cheap. Probably game ending if your opponent can't clear it.
Hmm this is a pretty slow hunter card, however i think there is 1 certain deck which can just use this card immediately: Big Beast Hunter. Thanks to Hollow Hound Big Beast Hunter can afford to play a 8 mana do nothing, and once played you can buff up Hollow Hound into an 8/8 in order to regain the lost HP from the previous turn, or just remove some big treaths. Also this can help Hydralodon by making it harder to remove Hydralodons main body. The only bad thing is obviously turning King Krush from an 8/8 into a 8/8 or downgrading Mister Mukla. But outside of that, Hunter has plenty of good smaller minions which might enjoy being buffed into an 8/8.
Also in Wild there might be some shenanigans with this card, but those shenanigans won't be good because Wild is way too fast for this card.
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.
