Now this is something that Handbuff Paladin was looking for; albeit that maybe some paladins were asking for a 2 mana 0/5 with the same text but oh well. As or Stormwind Avenger itself, escpially with libram, this is basically a 3 mana 7/7 with just 2 Libram of wisdom alone, if the librams were discounted to 2. For some impressive stats on a minion like that, i would say that it’s still Preeeety Scary to deal with.
I’d say even aggro paladins would want to consider Stormwind Avenger. If you were to get this buffed with the Avenge Secret; it’s going to be at 6/7 for 3 Mana with one spell. Even something like a “3 or 5” Mana 4/6 with Divine Shield that makes a 1/1 and Divine Shield because of Noble Mount is still kinda something.
If paladins still don’t like Avenger, then I would say that Avenger is a sleeper card. It’s a good card for what it can offer, so long as you go along with the theme.
4 Stars.
