All ragers are bad but this may be the exception
Insane arena card. You can reliably play this on-curve as a 3 mana 5-2 or 5-3 (either average or above average stats) and playing it on a later turn can yield a fairly ridiculous 3 mana 5-5 or higher.
As long as you don’t play it on turn 3, the tempo blowout of this minion is pretty good. Just imagine Turn 5 Witchwood Grizzly. Then Turn 6 Witching Hour + this. And that’s just one combo that came out from the top of my head. Card is great.
You will in fact rage if you get beat by a rager
High key, this is a terrible minion that more often or not is just going to be a 5/2 or 5/3 if you are playing on curve. Low key, this is a sleeper that will be played by more savvy deck builders and people playing silence priest.
Screams Silence Priest. Turn 2 Watcher into this, or turn 2 Watcher into turn 3 5/6 into silence both.
Shadow Visions rotating means Divine Spirit + Inner Fire is less consistent, pushing you in this more midrangey style.
4/5
Woah woah woah, hold up. Is this a good rager? 5/5
So, let’s say you play a 2/3 minion on turn 2, then this guy on turn 3. He’s a 5/3 for 3 mana; slightly better than an Injured Blademaster, so fairly good. If your 2/3 gets damaged, or you played a 2-health minion instead, then this is 5/2, which is like an Ice Rager- a minion that didn’t see play. Add to that the added risk of you NOT having anything with more than 1 health to copy, and this becomes Magma Rager, one of the worst cards in the game.
Sure, you can play Twilight Drake on turn 4, then copy its health with this guy on turn 5… except… what control deck would want this guy, who is likely to be stuck in your hand as a 5/1 for many turns? It’s a very risky plan, and the payoff would be like a 5/8 minion on turn 5 that is hyper-vulnerable to Silence. It’s good to be sure, but it’s not so amazing that it makes up for its inconsistency. 2/5
Yup this will see play there’s alot of cards that can give this alot of health and its very likely to be used by priest and warlock.
A legit compelling option for Silence Priest and any deck running Twilight Drake or Witchwood Grizzly
This is insane in silence priest. Just curving Ancient watcher into this it’s a 3 mana 5/5 but pretty much every minion in silence priest will have 5 or more health.
This is better than the other ragers but bad nonetheless. Too unreliable
This might actually be the first ever Rager to see play. I’m not even joking. You just need to play something like Twilight Drake or Witchwood Grizzly though, so you do have to play pretty Midrangey, or to consider making a Hand/ Tempo Deck.
This is NUTS with Twilight Drake
0/5 dosent have elementat tag like magma rager
