Completely unreasonable punishment for playing small dragons like new explorers.

Hoooooly, this is huge. We dreamed about meta dragon decks, and there comes their nightmare :) I dont know if im happy. Its good to have a huge tech card against dragons, but maybe it becomes too effective and crushes peoples mood to play dragon decks.

I think it is too strong to be honest. 8/8 rush on turn 4 is just overkill, it is better than Mountain Giant. This card will be a fun killer.

That being said,  I like the idea of anti-dragon tech, I even like the design and flavor of this (being a dragon poacher, so it rushes to kill a dragon and gets some extra stats). IMHO. it should have cost more mana, or get smaller boost, like 4 mana 4/4 that gets +2/2 and rush. 

My only concern for this card is it may be too good for aggro decks.

If you are a control dragon deck which runs anti aggro tools like the Bronze Explorer and the aggro deck drops this the turn after. That will be a 8/6 minion in play on turn 4. 

I think text like "If your opponent controls a dragon, +4/+4 with Rush this turn" would be more fair. Similar to the text of the Militia Commander.

EDIT: Leeroy Jenkins synergy! Whelps FTW lol

Amazing card to counter dragon decks. This is a big threat, and would make you think twice before playing any low-cost dragons early game. Amazing tech card for the upcoming meta.

A 4 mana card that has 8/8 and rush if your opponent controls a Dragon? Bonkers!. Also a powerful card in arena.

Gonna be nerfed 100%. I get you people like tech cards and countere, but think realistically: you really want an 8/8 with rush on turn 4? Even if played om turn 5 or 6 it still is insane. Plus, our infamous quest shaman will make this a 12/12. 

If dragons see any play this boy surely will too. super strong tech card

Well, its a card.

thats just about it. It would be on the stands with Waterboy no doubt locking eyes.

I don´t know why you would ever want to play this card. Seems like a packfiller to me

Am I wrong if I say there hasn't been a viable Dragon paladin deck or a solid meta breaking control deck?

I threw a few cards together with mainly Nozari being the tipping of the scales and made myself a really enjoyable Control Paladin deck. All I need is Zephrys the Great. 

The card is good in  the sense it dosn't affect your board, but a gain, as a deathrattle is not a proactive card and can be dealt with with a myriad of options for the turn it is played, dosn't have taunt so if you are facing a lethal situation the opponent can just go thrugh it. for me is not good enough

This cards a a good tempo tool but again in a world with tempo Priest not being on the radar is hard to belive this will see any kind of play. We'll just have to wait and see

Good body, but the effect isn't good enough for constructed, 1 mana more hero power doesn't bother enough the opponent. Could have been good when Baku and Genn where a threat in standard, but not right now

I know that but more balanced in my opinion.

Dragon explorers; Bronze Explorer and Azure Explorer makes this 8/6 in turn 4. That's normal for you ? Not for me tbh.

If they made some more cheap neutral dragons for this expansion, they also made them unplayable with this minion basically. That's bad for the game.

Midrange decks that aggroes the aggrodecks more than them. Just ridiculous.

Almost definitely sending Faerie Dragon or any other dragon costing less than 4 to the cleaners. The punish from this card is unreal. Kill an opposing unit and developing massive tempo at the same time. The only way blizzard thinks this is fair is when your opponent whip this card out after you did the turn before.

Oh, and by the way if quest shaman plays this they will have a 12/12 rush staring at you potentially on turn 6 if you dare to play even a single dragon by then.

Its only balancing factor is the fact that your opponent has to first have a dragon out. Why would they want to do that in a Dragons of Descent expansion is beyond me.

I'd consider this a metadefining card. We were all expecting to play Dragon decks soon, but this card will make some people doubt. Very strong card in my opinion.

Too little impact to be a effective. This card wont' see play in Constructed.

Discover tag for self replacement, decent stats, dragon, great tool for Tempo Dragon Paladin, this deck is becoming real.

probably one of the best dragon counter card..will definitely see it being played considering 80% of the new release is revolved around dragons..

I don't see it as a removal tool that much. The biggest, most impactful dragons have more than 8 health, so Dragonmaw Poacher won't kill it.

As a tempo tool however...
There are quite some small and medium-sized dragons now. And a 4 mana 8/8 that kills a minion and still sticks is pretty damn strong.

I agree to disagree, the Shammy Galakrond is not revealed yet. Shudderwock is still in until april. I hope the rest of shammies cards are good to level the scales. Ungoro was the most balanced expantion. I kind of feel the same with DoD... Most of the cards have new concepts. Anyone disagree? 

pretty useless in standard/ranked..will be decent in arena as a 3 drop..otherwise battleground usage..
