King Krush is a Beat Stick. He attacks. He ramps with Terrify “+5 attack for each of your Beast. Attack a random character” and starts cleaning the board with Apex Predator “Attack the Lowest health enemy; Deathblow: Repeat this.” The fear is that his attack will be reduced and becomes toothless. If that happens then spam Devilsaur.
For a F2P non-legendary team? King Krush + King Mukla (taunt & battlecry taunt pet) + Lady Anacondra (spam heal pet)
King Krush might actually be the king of Beat Sticks in the F2P teams... GO BEAST!
There are very few beast mercs but there are a lot that can summon beasts like Anacondra, Rexxar, Tavish and of course Krush himself. He also works very well with attack debuffs (Xyrella/Mannoroth/Tirion). Im not sure that Krush is good for PVP, but the repeated attack from Apex predator could be a key ability if you want to speedrun / farm PVE content and you dont have Ragnaros who does the same but better.
So Krush is not bad, but I think he will be better when we will have more beast mercs.
I love mercs that summon, and I love attacks that repeat. King Krush is already one of my favorite Fighters!
Also, at level 30 with Flaming Claws IV = 19 Attack out of the gate? Yes, please.
There aren't too many Beasts for Krush to ramp from on the current roster, but at least he can generate more of his own. I particularly like Apex Predator's ability to repeat: this could be the payoff for AoEs bringing down everyone equally, ending the fight in a single ability. Even if it doesn't, one proc of the Deathblow could be significant. He is completely lacking in utility, though: he just Attacks, buffs and Attacks, and summons someone who can Attack.
All-in-all, Krush doesn't appear to have a lot of nuance, but maybe he doesn't need it. He does his job, and that's all you can ask for, right?
