If you played Hungry Dragon onto a empty board with no hero ping, you should have lost regardless.
Been looking forward to this reveal all week because of that teaser picture.
Turns out it's just a crappier Hungry Dragon, FFS
But it's a deathrattle, your opponent has an opportunity to thin out their hand before killing it then they get two extra mana. If you're versing priest that could be two extra Lyra spells, If you're versing rogue that's more combo enablers and so on.
Except that you give your opponents the coins on deathrattle, so they can dump them immediately.
really great art though
This card is actually really good for mill decks
It would be as battlecry, mukla is just better for that purpose.
I'm not so sure; the Deathrattle means that it starts interfering with N'zoth and the late game wall.
So you get a turn 5 statted minion turn 4 and they get a turn 6-7 minion. Aside from some possible weird shenanigans with the effect this isn't as good as Hungry Dragon who only really saw play in Arena anyways.
I actually think that this is better than Hungry Dragon in many matchups because it is a deathrattle card instead of a battlecry. Imagine running against aggro and coining out a turn 3 duskbreaker to clear the board, and then dropping him on turn 4. It isn't the best card, but it does help increase the pool of usable high-tempo dragons in standard.
Just two coins? I’d barely call that hoarding, more of a hobby
He likes to share the wealth with all those that kill him and not just the first.
Hungry Dragon's rich cousin.play dead + hoarding dragon = mill hunter meta
