Seems a little odd to me. I don't usually associate rush minions with an aggro deck.
I think you will need to build around this and Animated Broomstick to get some real value. It's hard to remove on curve so it has that going for it. Overall, though at first glance, I'm not sold on t.
Ok this is a really good card. It draws a card as a 3 mana 4/1 which is already really good, but now if you play that card you also get +4 attack? Bonkers.
Its just a good play from turn 3 to 4 with Day at the Faire. But there needs to be more generators before this truly becomes a centerpiece. On its own, its not really bad, with vanilla stats on 4, unlike say Quartermaster
Fair point. But that's a turn 7 play over 2 turns. Obviously if your opponent can't deal with the 6/6 taunt then they wouldn't have any chance against this anyway. There's also that problem on whether you need to just play this on 5 as a 5/5 divine shield because you don't have any other plays, which wouldn't save you if you're under pressure.
But as I say, its deceptively powerful because as you rightly pointed out, curving from hammer into this is not an insignificant play.
The viability of this card will be defined by how well Paladins can spam Silver Hand Recruits. Historically, it took shit like Genn or Baku to really push Dude-a-din, but I think with one more AoE buff and one more Recruit summoner, Dude-a-din could make a solid return.
It has potential to be one of the most annoying dude buffer to ever exist, solely supported by the divine shield it gives out.
Currently the only card that gives us more dudes than a hp is Day at the Faire, which at 3 dudes on 3, then curve into this is monstrously strong. But there needs to be more dude generators for this to ever live up to its potential.

Air Raid is still in standard too, though it doesn't quite curve into Merchant.

New Warrior Minion - Ringmaster Whatley
The Curator was my first thought.
I think this will definitely see play as a draw engine or a tutor for specific cards.

New Priest Minion - The Nameless One
Interesting card.
Seems like Mind Control but only the effect not the minion. Wish this wasn't printed for priest lol. I want this as an anti priest card.

Honestly, I might consider popping back into Hearthstone for the first time in 6 months, just to try wild dude paladin with the new cards.

So, it looks like everyone from the trailer is going to be an actual minion. That's amazing.
