    this is actually pretty good for Warriors. You actiate a bunch of synergies AND make them even more resilient. Imagine this with Berserkers and then into Bloodsworn. Pretty much impossible to get rid of conveniently.

    Also works as a ping to kill off smaller units

    And if you want to meme it up: Blood Knight

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    I'm assuming the 'and' part can be read as 'then' ; can anyone confirm?

    This is really good. In particular with the increased amount of 1 mana 2/2 minions in the game after this set.

    A versatile, neutral minion with pretty cool effect and some "drawback" - I would like to experiment with that.

    A very cool card with a lot of interesting interactions. You could use this in warrior for enrage synergies, or in paladin if a "Divine Shield matters" deck ever becomes a thing, or you could just play this in any old board based deck that can use this to make a favorable trade.

    I'd say even outside of Warrior it's pretty good. Maybe in some Zoolock Deck? You could give your 2 Drops a Shield for value trading, protect your Knife Juggler or make an annoying Voidwalker

    The card doesn't makes sense otherwise.. Hs is known for simple effects so.. It is what you see.

    Everyone's missing the best use: Stoneskin Gargoyle! He gets the shield and just heals the damage!

    Ok, but seriously, this is a neat card. Lots of possibilities.

    This card is great! 2/1 for 1 mana are good, and the battlecry is just amazing. Besides Tempo Warrior, this card will probably see play in most of the aggressive decks. On the other hand, it might also fit into midrange decks to defend am expensive minion.

    Powerfull card in most decks. Let's control decks trade more favorably, and let's aggro decks trade into a taunt minion without losing a minion. Great card. I'm surprised this isn't a paladin card, Because minion that give divine shield are generally paladin cards.

    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.

    Out of the 3 Augmerchants, this one is probably my favorite.

    Super strong card: 1 mana, decent stat and a strong battlecry. Easy 5 star for me

    prob the best of the 3 given the fact that divine shield is always better than everything else..getting it to activate is simple and low cost as well

    This is way better than its two brothers, and might actually see play in constructed. Also has the best reveal video of the set.

    Not a huge fan of this card. Unlike Rocket Augmerchant, this card lets minions that can already attack survive trading, rather than letting minions attack immediately. As for warrior enrage synergies, I still think Risky Skipper exceeds this in every way.

    This post is discussing the wild format.

    I believe it's the best Augmerchant of the three. Divine Shield can help you win trades you would have broke even on otherwise, and there's always the Enraged "while damaged" synergy.

    HMMM, an interesting card, there's plenty of neutral minions added with this set that have benefits from taking damage, but are you going to run this guy just to play off curve?

    It's a shame augmerchant mechanic is attached to a small minion, i don't know if there is any deck that want to slot this. It's a cool effect, though.

    Be careful while using this please guys. I don't want to see one of you in a trolden video while just using this on the enemy minion with 2 health to kill it after with Fireblast.

    This card is so strong. Divine shield opens a lot of new ways to play your minions. 

    This with any rush minion. Its a poor mans Zilliax

    The best of the augmerchants, this guy is going to be everywhere: enabling trades, bolstering taunts, going face. You think a King Krush is a good late-game drop? How about with Divine Shield attached?

    Everywhere. You're gonna see this guy everywhere.

    I could see this one seeing a nice amount of play in constructed, amazing arena card too.

    Who needs consistency when you could have fun?

    Looks like the best augmerchant, for me it's a nice tool for midrange decks.

    Not great, but might have some potential in arena. Divine shield on a big threat could work in theory.
