Thanks for doing the giveaway.

May or may not be a throwback to Corpsetaker it's definetely going to be a stable in rainbow DK and might even be playable with only rush and lifesteal.

A fairly stick thread, kinda like a midrange Rattlegore. Though 6 mana might make it a bit too slow.

There are a bunch of cheap unholy spells that are generally good for swarmy decks. Though the pool of cheap DK spells are bigger than you might expect.

Basically a 1 mana Defile, but you have to make the first trigger yourself. You could even use it preemptively on turn 1 or 2, without triggering it, to discourage your opponent from playing any more minions. It might become a class stable.

I don't think there are going to be enough frost spells in standard to make it consistent enough.

Seems like a fine handbuff payoff, but I don't think there are enough of them to make it a viable strategy.

I can see it finding a place in some sort of midrange handbuff deck, but I doubt that's going to be a thing.

Ive played a variation of BBU, even BBF, before which focuses on handbuff. Its okay, but the reason why it could never be anything more than a niche tier 3 deck is because its either too slow, or you run out of stuff too quickly. Not to mention that against control decks its a nightmare, which is why I gave up trying to make the deck work.

Youre right about zombietank being a good add there, because the taunt makes up a bit for the slowness, but Im still not convinced it'll be a deck. Maybe rotation would make it more viable. We'll see.

Shambling Zombietankmakes a lot more sense when you look at the handbuff package DK got. Lesser Spinel Spellstone, Amateur Puppeteer and Darkthorn Quilter solidify what i always suspected, that the BBU rune combo is handbuffs and minion copies. Same as UUF is plagues and excavate. You can see the trend from older cards like Blood Tap, Vicious Bloodworm, Nerubian Swarmguard, Malignant Horror, etc. Whether it will work or not, can't say, probably has too little corpse generation. but for a short while the deck was viable i think after Festival miniset when DK got Hollow Hound

It's a Handbuff card that gets to do something "immediately", before the extra stats are invalidated by the inevitable clear. Dropping two of these you've been buffing all game could be a winning strategy, assuming you can hold out that long.

Horn of Winter is back in Standard, so this can proc pretty easily assuming you have other Frost spells to continue the chain.

@Pezman - It's not for Rainbow DK, but for the Blood/Unholy Handbuff package. 2-Mana to summon two 5/4s or better - with Taunt - would be worth it in the mid-game; or at least, that's the hope.

Played the demo - it's fun! Of the regular wholesome Mario variety...only with Peach hehe.

It had Swordfighter Peach and Patisserie Peach in the demo, and I missed one Sparkle Gem per stage because of course I did >_>
