How to Get
- This card is earned in the Blackrock Mountain Adventure.
- Defeat Coren Direbrew in the first wing, Blackrock Depths, to unlock two copies of the card.
- Once you have earned the regular version of Grim Patron, you can craft the golden version for 800 Arcane Dust.
Clarificiations
- If Grim Patron has a Divine Shield, and it is attacked, it will not summon another Grim Patron due to it not actually receiving damage. (CM_Zeriyah)

Grim Patron

Bouncing Blade

Commanding Shout
= loop that will never end and some damage to them also
Sadly as much as I would like for this to happen, bouncing blade stops when it hits a commanding shout minion with 1 health.
Gonna be so OP!
Well---also Unstable Ghul will work nicely .
I'm thinking turn 8, Grim Patron + Bouncing Blade like a Muster + Quartermaster combo for warriors but probably much weaker due to damaging your own minions. However, this combo would probably fill your entire side of the board.
It would be pretty fun to see it in action
So if you have one patron on the board you could theoretically fill your board up? Assuming the blade doesn't kill one in the process.
is it just me or does the artwork kinda look like cgi
I think they might have taken the model from World Of Warcraft and painted over it for the art which would explain why it looks like a 3D model.
This is bad people...A classic ''Win More Card'' ...Obviously good if you achieve the dream but in most cases it will not.
Horrible Arena card. Way to slow to get started. Only way to get it started successfully is if your already ahead.
Bomb Lobber has exact same cost and stats but is 10X better because it has instant board effect and most times can 2 for 1 and also is a good ''From Behind Card''. Grim Patron does nothing to help the situation. Will see zero play in both Arena and Constructed.
If this card costed 4 Mana then that would change everything.
I agree DarkArchon21. For the mana cost the stats are much to weak for a turn 5 and pulling off the combos people have outlined are improbable. I think it will see some play due to its newness and novelty, but it wont last. a 4 mana 3/3 would have been better even with the trigger. Any player will take this out immediately, its like seeing a turn one undertaker without any followup, it will be wiped off the board. there are so many bad cards in HS I dont know why blizzard continues to give us cards like this, i sadly sit and look through my collection and wonder about the thinking behind sooo many of the unused cards I have. that new 5 mana 5/4 bird thing they have for GvG, terrible for constructed, thats just one of many......its the reason we see the same old decks for season after season, why would you stop using hunter and zoolock if they wreck the whole damn ladder, HS is no longer fun to play. Unless you are spending stupid amounts of real money on digital cards.
This makes me more sad that Warsong commander is still broken.
Edit: Here is what the bug essentially is http://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/2ozt1e/blizzard_please_fix_warsong_commanders_charge/
Way slow. Warrior maybe. 7 mana for a mage for 3/2 & 3/3 minions vs a flame strike? No thanks. Turn 9/10 Priest with pyro, pw:s and another 1 or 2 mana spell In hand? Priest already be dead by then.
Looks like a good card for warrior.
for 5 mana its way to slow
5 mana is way too much for such a silly effect
going to assume the other grim patron is also this card and can also summon more? wild pyro combos could be interesting ;)
Priests running two Velen's Chosen/Power Word:Shield and doing really crazy shit with Wild Pyromancer and that card. Play that card, play wild pyro, two activators, COH. Deal 2 to everyone, summon 1+3 Grim Patron, heal all of them. HAHAHA, it would be funny.
But its a damn slow card, even for warrior. 6 mana for one 3/2 and another 3/3 is not that good. Maybe with Commanding Shout it could do something more.
The text on this card doesn't look right.
OpieOP
Mage is just waiting to get that 7th mana crystal.
