  • I’ve seen worse Taunt cards.

  • Rush and taunt isn't exactly the best combination and the low attack isn't good on minions. It's not good anyway and thankfully it's a beast so it won't disrupt the dragon discover pool.

  • Not hopeless against aggro, otherwise it has too low impact on game to see constructed play.

  • Its fine versus aggro, nobody will tech this but is a nice addition to the discovery/summon pool.

  • This is REALLY Pushing it, and even for Midrange Beast Warrior. Replace the Taunt with Lifesteal however and I would have been a whole lot more interested.

  • Another meh arena card. 

  • versatile but i don't think it's strong

  • rush and taunt feels weird, you don't wanna hurt your taunt minions, but in arena you can use as some removal and left a 2/3 taunt on board, but is a weak card.

  • Usually you want 3 attack at that mana range for a taunt. Is rush on a taunt usefull enough to forego that +1 attack? Probably not.

  • ok maybe see play in some rush hunter

  • I think it's solid. Good health, attacks a little low, but he can eat an opponent's weanie minion and then Hunter can buff it up with Dire Frenzy or Houndmaster next turn

  • Well it is a decent anti aggro option, but depends on meta...

  • pack filler 1/4

  • you dont want rush and taunt in the same minion i believe

    • Against aggro you might...

  • Its not too bad honestly. A more consistent Swift Messenger but losses the possible 6/2 flip that might just do it at times.

    The beast tag is also something in its favor. I'm just thinking whether this can fit into the new rush warrior.

    Friendly

  • The only reason it could see play is the beast tag, other than that, its pretty bad.

  • garbage. Trash can/5

  • mini warbear

  • I doubt that it will but given how Amani War Bear turned out I could see this surprising us.
