So, I’ve played Ratdeathtle Hunter where you spam the idea of Rat King, and while it dose take it’s time building up, you can seriously fill the board with nothing but Rat Kings, and your opponent can’t really do anything about it because they’re just too Many. and from 1 Rat King can come another, and another, and Another. WIth Commander Ichman, you can’t really do that, because the Rat Kings can do that on their own.
This Card is effectively a worse version fo Guardian Animals, because at least Guardian Animals itself is summoning 2 of your beasts that have Rush. 9 mana is just WAY too much. I think if they had buffed it to a 7 mana 3/4, to give the idea that your going to be playing some form of a beast and to give you a chance to actually play a beast, then people would say that Ichman is a solid card. This card is doomed from the from how I’m seeing it. 1 star.
If your playing Ichman, your playing Guardian Animals. If your Playing King Krush OTK with Beastmaster, You would have Noblemen on your side.
Wait, this effect seem familiar. *Tavish Stormspike echo* A Tavish Stormspike like effect that’s 6 mana more expensive? No thanks.
Good concept, terrible mana cost. And on top, useless against Quest Mage and Quest DH (and that is REALLY important).
i can see this with some buffed raptor maybe if raptor copy go in deck before being summoned…..
nah it’s trash.
sadly another unplayable legendary for hunter :/
This not only costs 9 mana but relies on the conditional that your opponent has a decent sized board of minions to trade into.
And given that this is a 9 mana card, you must be playing a control deck. In which case, assuming this pops off you will be seriously thinning out your deck.
I do wonder if this would be fine summoning just one big beast from your deck. If you play this into King Krush, you’re basically paying 1 extra mana to summon a 5/4 body? Ehhhhhh….
Also in the case that a big beast hunter takes off… Guardian Animals is still a Hunter card, yeah?
Tavish, in the same rotation, costs way less than this for a similar effect and sees absolutely 0 play. This even at 7 mana would be questionable.
This is worse than the paladin rare below
I can already see this as a filler cards. Not that many chances to summon a repeated effect with so many restrictions.
First, Enemy boards must have minions.
Second, You need to pull some beast capable of killing said minions.
Third, Being 9 Cost, it doesn’t help very much against aggro. Too slow.
Fourth, Building around beast deck, which hasn’t see play for at least 2 expansion. Even Rat King is still dead in the collection book.
1/5
Combo with tundra rhino and have a board of charge? Especially with dire frenzy to bulk up the beasts
Forget it of course you have to attack and kill a minion with rush which means they can’t attack again with charge.
But why 9 mana? This is only good in a Big beast deck and we don’t have that at the moment.
well this card has potential. but i only see potential right now for it in wild, it may help revive the old recruit hunter with katrina and big beats ( some sort of recruit big beats reno hunter even perhaps ). but its kinda difficult to predict due to extreme-aggro decks in the wild meta rn, with games endding at turn 4 to 8…
