This get improved a lot by on-board attack buffs (like Dire Wolf Alpha).

If there are playble ones this might actually be worth running.

I concur on the hint request - this is a good puzzle i'm just stumped on a wild card that is tree-related without actually being a tree.

I mean, it might be nice, but just now, when Immortal Prelate rotates out? It'sn not going to see play, buffadin never really worked and even less without the Prelate.

That wording choice is the best

I'm giving Warmaul Challenger 5 stars on awesomeness alone. "Battle it to death!" is amazing.

More concretely, this is a great way to clear out any very low attack, high health minion like Doomsayer, and if you're just using it against a typical 2 drop it's basically a "3 mana 1/4 destroy a small minion," which seems fair. Buff this guy in a Galakrond Warrior deck and you can kill just about anything with this.

Trades well against tokens and 1-2 drops, but weaker against anything else. Seems like a win-more card to me.

For all Gwent aficionados, this card's effect is the Duel mechanic.  

However, low attack means this card is not that exciting, and if there are no handbuffs it's hard to justify running it; if this card targets a 3/2 , it's an unconditional but worse SI:7 Agent; if it targets a 2/3 it isn't that better. Sure, it's decent against other 1 attack minions, but not that many around here unless you're facing Rogue - and even then, not that many either. This minion just doesn't feel good enough.

You can sum this minion up as a 1/X, with X = target's Health times its Attack. So it becomes effectively a 3 mana deal 5 against a 2-attack minion with 5 or more health; a 3 mana deal 4 against a 3-attack minion with 4 or more health; a 3 mana deal 3 against a 4-attack minion with 3 or more health, and so on and so forth. Without any "auto-damage" trigger on the board or a hand-buff played turns before, this is for all intents and purposes a weak basic level removal that, in the best of cases, leaves a 1 attack minion behind to compete for the board.

If this is enough for Warrior, then by all means. If Galakrond Warrior is still a thing after this expansion comes out, then we might see this card around - it's broken with Galakrond's effect. We'll see if other Warrior archetypes will want to tackle this card

3 Mana kill a small to medium sized Minion seems pretty efficient to me. Also, it can hit Minions that are immune from Spells/HPs. 

I assume that it only fights the front Half of a Reborn-Minion? 

I was hoping for more Control Galakrond cards :p

But we already had so many of them. Enrage, Rampage, etc. It can help aggro with it's ridiculous health.

Plus, it's always be a damaged minion right after it's battlecry.

Many of the revealed cards are hugely powerful in terms of Value, with little to no Tempo.

That will not really translate into real power, because the meta will likely force most of them out of viability.

That's true, maybe the Prime and Imprisoned cards will show something cool ;)

I think this card might be useful in some Enrage strategies. You can use it to get some weak early minion off the board (just something like a 1/1 or 2/2) and be left with a sizeable damaged body for Rampage shenanigans.

Not bad, but not that impressive either

3 Mana 11 Stats. What? 

She has links to Shattrath City (in Outland), and I think it is only the basic 10 heroes that have (unwritten?) rule to not become non-hero cards. Maiev will definitely appear (neutral legendary by the looks of it) and of course Medivh and Khadgar are already minions.

Like you lot came to say the same thing..

the ultimate Doomsayer counter.

Pretty sure we won't be seeing Warrior Handbuffs this expansion or else this would be ridiculous

7 Mana without immediate Board-Impact. Oof... Maybe in a Control Meta? 

You also get the Cards that you've cast on yourself, so there's at least that.

But hey, another Card for Pure Pally

Probably good for Pure Paladin.

Seems like Pure Paladin support. Although I can see this being used for Control Paladin; getting multiple copies of Lightforged Blessing or even Subdue, if you target your own minions, would be great in the late game. It wouldn't be too bad either to get more copies of Blessing of Kings or Pharaoh's Blessing if you're playing Buff Paladin.

Doomsayer’s biggest fear.

This is so good when drawn by Galakrond

Seems like the kind of card that's designed to work with something not yet revealed.

A 7-mana 4/6 that only generates cards is very slow. It's similar to Krag'wa except you don't have to play it immediately after the turn you play spells so there'S some freedom.

However, what kind of buffs are there even that would make this worth it. I guess we'll see

The card is a reload for your hand. It will probably work in an aggressive, buff small minion deck. On turn 7, you know you can at least ensure you have plenty of spells back in your hand. 

It could work.
