Battlecry: If you have at least 4 other minions, deal 4 damage.
Gormok has been giving impaling lessons in a small tent near the tournament grounds. For only 25g you too could learn the fine art of impaling!

Doesn't say on the battlefield, so do minions in hand also count?
Nvm read the clarification.
This card must be freaking terrifying to Chinese players...
You mean to Japanese people. From wiki "There are several unlucky numbers in Japanese. Traditionally, 4 is unlucky because it is sometimes pronounced shi, which is also the word for death."
I mean Chinese people. Because, you know, that superstition came to Japan from China. So nowadays both Chinese and Japanese people hate the number 4. But I only brought up Chinese people because I'm not sure that there even are any HS players in Japan.
IMP-LOSION. UNLEASH THE HOUNDS. MUSTER FOR BATTLE.
Most the decks that play those cards are aggro, Most good players clear your board if dropped the turn prior and would be way to late in the game if your aggro.
Token Druid and Zoolock are the best decks with this card. Since people are afraid of this card on turn 4, they will try to clear your board if you begin to swarm on turn 2, and forcing them out sometimes can make you in a better position, like using frost bolt or dark bomb on turn 1 against a voidwalker. Like you have a void walker turn one, flame imp and abusive turn 2, imp gang boss turn 3, you probably have 4 minions on the board on turn 4. Even though this is a bit too ideal, you don't actually have to play this card on turn 4 and it is still insane later because there is no direct damage in zoo deck and this card can turn tides easily.
This card has 5 4's... so close :P
In all seriousness though, this is my favourite legendary of the new set. Seems easy to activate and when you do you'll have so much board control it's not even funny. Bet the animation for his 4 damage is cool too.
That flavor text is giving me flashbacks to the Dot Hack games, and one guy who kept obsessively talking about how he must THRUST.
i for see many tokens and big ass minions in HS future. mark my big headed lips when i say this guy is going to be auto include in every rush deck in the TGT meta.
Really? I don't believe you. /s
might be possible to pull off on t4 with snake trap, bear trap, and haunted creepers
Or Coin + Implosion on turn 3.
Does he have Flamestrike? DOES HE?? I'm sure he doesn't he woulda played it by now right? RIGHT? I'm going for it. Plays Gormok.
Flamestrike.
Thanks Blizzard.
Hm i think people forget the unleash combo.... not in face hunter but in some other hunter variant. you unleash and with the battlecry dmg clear the board
Swipe says hi. Say goodbye to your tempo.
Should also include "4head" in there, somewhere.
Ohh, and a "4chan" too.
(4sen, no!).
On a serious note, T4 to be able to have 4 minions on the board is quite heavy conditions (serious talk), unless your opponent REALLY having a bad draw to counter your opponent's minion (for 3-4 turns).
It's a good card I'd say against Stalling Deck (Freeze Mage / Handlock / Giant Mage, etc).
Having 4 damage as Battlecry Damage is a horror experience, though.
This card is great ... but I don't see it being used on turn 4 very often. Maybe on turn 5 after Imp-losion.
I'm afraid of how good it will be in aggro Paladin ... Muster for Battle comes on turn 3 ...
4ced to upvote 4 +4. Will not 4get. 4sen the Impaler con4med.
