I really like this card. Whenever I played Evolved Kobold I always had the problem that it’s poor stats meant that it would likely dies on my opponents turn so it would only be effective with small cheap spells. Since this has better stats it isn’t as vulnerable to removal improvng the chances it would survive multiple turns so you can use it with more expansive spells. I like this card and would rate it around 3.5/5.
Ogre and kobold put into one card with less stats, paying to mana for an extra card in your deck.
that is a great deal on paper, problem is that ogre and kobold don’t see any play.
better to play the evolved kobold, or put that new tuskarr into your deck twice and give a friendly minion +2 spelldamage for 4 mana with a 4/6 worth of stat on the board
id agree totally. the ONLY, and i mean ONLY way i see this working. is you are shaman and you play this, deal some cool damage. then evolve? but even then its still garbage
It turns out that the more mana you add to a spell damage card, the harder it gets to use. People only put up with Mally because of how much Spell Damage it gives. I’m honestly surprised that Evolved Kobold saw any play, but if people want the +2 Spell Damage, they’ll just play that instead. Hard pass. Also really awful in arena.

I have to agree with helioshade, but evolved kobold is simply better for combos and the 4/4 body isnt really meaningful. The only application i can think of is the new 1 damage aoe spells for priest and warlock.
An overcosted Evolved Kobold for slightly better stats. Considering how +2 Spell Damage is only really used in combo decks, 6-mana seems like an awful lot. Doesn’t seem like a good card IMO.
