-C u next patch bro
Completely unreasonable punishment for playing small dragons like new explorers.
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.
Wow, didn't even think about quest Shaman :pog:
Yeah, that shouldn't be a battlecry. Maybe an aura would be better? "Has +4/+4 and Rush while your opponent controls a Dragon"?
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.
Probably the greatest punish card ever printed.
Will this be nerfed? Quest shaman thinks it just *might.
Welp looks like we found our must include in every deck for the coming year, and IT'S NOT EVEN A LEGENDARY this time!
Great minion, nice removal and it's neutral.
(Looks at card again....) WAIT IT'S A 4 MANA 8/8 NEUTRAL. i kinda miss the days where a 4 mana 7/7 was considered OP. This expansions powerlevel is off the charts! Looking kinda forward to it!
Also Calling this a 5 Star card would be understating the cards powerlevel.
Sometimes i'm confused which one is the higher rarity between Rare and Epic..
Bad design for me. It must read as "Rush, Battlecry: If you attack a dragon with this, Gain +4/+4 for this turn." which will lose +4/+4 buff at the end of turn and can gain it again if you try to attack a minion. since it is meant to counter dragons, not all big minions or punish other little minions with huge stats stays on the battlefield.
When you see Brightwing on the battlefield and some other risky minion, This should not gain stats to counter them. That's not good thematically.
Seems a bit more powerful than it meant to be with this way. All of the explorer dragons make this 8/8 on t4. It is so powerful. we are paying some price to play 8/8 Giants or fat Edwin VanCleef on t4. This just becomes 8/8 with an explorer on the battlefield. This is just ridiculous.
It only have rush if the opponent has a dragon. otherwise its just a 4/4 for 4 mana
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.
All right all right all right
Looks like a better version of Dragonslayer from KnC.
Dragonmaw Poacher + Vivid Nightmare = Pog
Or - Oh your turn 3 nice Bronze Explorer My turn 4 bang 8/8Dragonmaw Poacherwith rush
KEKW
It seems meh, but as the expansion gets released with so many dragons during first weeks,I guess it will be played. If the dragons changes the meta it is really good. Otherwise it is just bad.
Bad? Seriously? This is an amazing card. A little too good I think. For the first few weeks everybody and thier Nan will be playing Dragons. Don't forget that even after that there are plenty of cards that can trigger this Battlecry. Nightmare Amalgam for instance, Kalecgos, any of the Yseras.
This is an insane card and will be auto include for anyone with common sense. Even at its worst its a 4 Mana 4/4. Which isn't awful.
I like it.
Tech card to counter dragons.
8/8 with rush for 4 has a lot of value.
The Zilliax of this expansion. Soon to be in every deck.
