I am surprised by the low ratings on this card. This is a solid 4
Feels token man
4/5
They are definitely setting up druid for something the loa involves possibly better hero attack since we would lose malfurion the pestilence on rotation.
And the champion could imply we will see a card with fandrals ability but it may be limited to next activation or for rest of the turn.
Take celestial emissary as a template but choose one instead of spell power. Probably going to appear in next expantion.
This will see play at some point. 2 3/2 raptors for 4 mana is good and buffing a minion plus taunt is solid too. Usually these druid cards scale down because of versatility but I don’t think that’s the case here.
Never gonna be played as long as Saronite Chain Gang is in standard- it gives you both the bodies and the defense this card could provide. And the raptor option has anti-psynergy with Witching Hour. There’s some little advantages to this card compared with similar ones (e.g. this lets you put bodies out T4 without causing Oaken Summons to whiff) but none of them add up to making this a card Druid would actually want to play. Maybe after rotation.
Trying to push Fandral Staghelm
or maybe we’ll get a card with a similar effect.
Doesn’t seem that terrible, 2 3/2 for 2 is.okay, and choose one is flexible. The 2/4 taunt is a way to deal more damage with the void ripper
Druid is dead with this expansion…
Druid is going to be just as powerful these next 4 months until rotation. Then it should take a hit.
Yeah im looking forward to it
