Its basically [card]darkshire councilman[/card], and having 1 additional health really makes it sticky enough to survive past turn 3.
But its supporting an archetype that hasn't been the same ever since the last core rotation where they removed [card]umberwing[/card], [card]wrathscale naga[/card], [card]nethrandamus[/card], and [card]command the illidari[/card]
All token dhunter needs right now is a viable finisher, and this …
Best part about this card is flexibility. You can just drop this on 3 and get a decent minion out, but likely best results are on 4, where you're nearly guaranteed a 3/3 with divine shield or rush at least.
Its just a good minion, but does nothing other than being a good minion. Which means its not an …
Its a 9 mana card, in hunter. If its not ending games the same way [card]Kathrena winterwisp[/card] did, my eyebrow would remain raised.
But like all cards in the reveal season, until we see all the cards we wont know how good each individual card is. This one definitely needs some support to see play, at the moment.
They use the term 'eat' but that's basically the same as destroy. Just more flavorful that way. I would be greatly surprised if this was not the case.
I really thought it was zombie cornelius looking at the reveal pic. Turns out its just a somewhat broken 8 drop abomination.
Basically if you're playing against a midrange deck and this card eats up one of the big minions on 8, that's basically game over. Unfortunately fortunately, this card has no rush or taunt so its still just …
When I saw the article yesterday about Bobby K, it surprises me not one bit. Because even if he went on to tell everyone that he knew nothing of all the sexual misconducts, we'd not only not believe him, we'd just tell him that it doesn't matter because it happened under his watch and he should take responsibility regardless.
…
Im pretty certain that you cant build this around small minions even if they do have poisonous, simply because its a 9 mana card and the last thing you need is a small fry out on 9 in case your opponent has no minions.
To me, this, along with the new card [card]revive pet[/card], is a clear indication that …
[card]Ram tamer[/card] is a bit weak for standard nowadays. If you triggered it, the buff makes it a 5/4 on 3, but since it neither snowballs and [card]imprisoned felmaw[/card] comes with the exact same stats while being able to attack immediately after it awakens, is there any reason to play this at all? But it does support a secret built, …
Probably not good, mostly because of its cost. 9 mana is basically the same level as Nzoth, and Nzoth this aint. Fact is you'd have to survive all the way to turn 9, not draw your big beasts until turn 9, and then your pay off is basically the same level as a slightly better [card]guardian animals[/card]. Unless there's like …
Its not a bad card, but its too...normal, I guess would be the correct term.
There's plenty of good 8 mana cards that would go past this anytime, like [card]turalyon, the tenured[/card], [card]tirion fordring[/card], [card]varian, king of stormwind[/card], [card]goliath, sneed's masterpiece[/card], or even just Yrel, assuming you can trigger her battlecry.
It might find a place in big …
My comments with obvious storyline spoilers
[spoiler]
Looks like Scabbs drew the short straw I guess, so let's just dogpile him with all the other characters.
Its kinda like they know this is the last one before the next expansion and so contrived a way for everyone to be in Alterac, no matter how dumb the idea …
That's a lot of stats assuming there's a target.
But its a 8 mana card and must therefore be compared to something like [card]goliath, sneed's masterpiece[/card] or [card]varian, king of stormwind[/card] of which this card suddenly doesn't quite feel as good as it looks.
Big paladin? because outside of that, I can't see any current paladin build running …
Or in otherwords, its landmarks except blizz doesn't call them landmarks :)
I mean, a bunker in dun baldar is only an objective the same way an orange is technically an apple.
Midrange hunter support card. Given that it draws 3 cards, its always going to be a consideration one way or another. There's not much to say, because this is just draw options and hunter needs draw, staggered or otherwise. Its basically like running any other draw option, except this one is more bang for buck, assuming you can keep alive …
Hunters cant draw, and this draw cards. That makes it good.
And since hunter secrets are good, this makes the card even better. It does however forces you to not just spend 2 mana do nothing, for a draw 3 that comes in stages, so its likely to be played on in a midrange hunter that does care for …
Its basically a card for big decks, so you can cheat out an 8 drop on turn 5, assuming you dont mind running this card as the only small minion in the deck itself.
Big demonlock, big dhunter, or just plain big deck will find plenty of use for this. In fact, being a neutral means you can make …
The immediate thing that comes to mind is [card]call to arms[/card] and that was incredibly broken on 4, which makes this one a comparable card.
But call to arms doesn't limit your deck building whereas this one does, which means [card]drek'thar[/card] will only ever be used in either an aggro deck or a spell heavy deck that uses only …
Not bad. Since all aggro decks will be playing this one for the honor kill text, its definitely worth considering for aggro decks.
The 1 attack is probably the one thing that lets it down, but lets be honest here: a 1 mana minion will only ever take a trade when it can, and in all other scenarios it'll …
Its just a poor card outside of the deal 3 damage bit. If you cant honor kill something then this is just a slightly stronger [card]stormpike commando[/card], which is quite shit to be honest.
Still, being able to deal 3 damage and only sometimes get a good 6/6 out for 5 after removing one minion is definitely not completely …
Its not that this card isn't good, but that there's not really a lot of deathrattle cards worth running in standard, for what rogue usually does. Perhaps this is the time where I'll finally be able to play deathrattle rogue unironically, because I refuse to believe that this card can be printed without at least having some support.
At …
