This is giving me a hard-on here. I have double stampede and a dinomancy (not that dinomancy works very well with this) and have been trying to make control hunter for ages, and it finally looks like that will be possible in at least some way. Not that it would be particularly powerful, especially since you won’t always draw this, but this is definitely a step in the right direction.

Why is this card so well rated. Cho’Gall was 1.5 more mana efficient and could also provide a big body for when you didn’t have any spells to use with it. This card is just awful.

How did this get such good ratings? It’s awful. 1/4 taunt is barely even worth 2 mana, the discovery effect is definitely not worth the extra mana whatsoever.

Dr. Boom doesn’t have an effect immediately as he enters a battlefield. I mean yeah, he has a battlecry, but it’s not like the battlecry does any more immediate than a bigger minion would.

War golem and Ironfur grizzly are awful examples. These cards aren’t played because of their awfully bad statlines compared to mana. It’s like saying a 10 mana 1/1 wouldn’t see play solely because of its lack of immediate value.

And Ironfur Grizzly DOES have an immediate effect (kinda). The opponent can’t attack other minions or your face at their turn, which comes right after.

Oh and yeah, then you’d also have to assume that Druid couldn’t possibly get cards that help this and that the meta wouldn’t change whatsoever.

To clarify – The card is great in constructed, I didn’t mean that it was just a good arena card.

I don’t get how nobody is seeing the use for this card. It allows you to fill up your deck with low-cost minions to beat the early game, to then play this card and gain a significantly stronger lategame, due to having removed all your mana efficient cards. I mean, how many times have you lost due to drawing a mistress of mixtures into 4 more 1-2 drops on turn 20-25?

While this isn’t exactly too relevant – this card is absolutely godly in arena.
