Battlecry: Tell Cobalt Scalebane to go fuck himself.
So, much like Skulking Geist, it's a tech card that targets a very specific deck. Skulking Geist saw a lot of play. Why won't this see as much play? Dealing six damage to a Dragon is only a hindrance, albeit a big one. However, Skulking Geist absolutely annihilated its intended target: Jade Druid. Without their precious one-drop spells, they we're almost hopeless. A cool card for sure, but I'm not sure it's going to be the big counter to the top META deck like some people are saying.
Skulking Geist did not do a damn thing to abate Jade Druid. Scalebanes are also rampant in Rogue/Druid/Rogue decks and unlike Geist Dragonslayer has an actually good statline that means you're not going off curve by playing it. It's Bearshark with a massive Dragon hit on Battlecry (which means Shamans can play it with their new Brann-Elemental for an easy Deathwing/Ysera gimp as well) instead of being untargetable by spells. It's just a shame that 3 HP is going to mean Priest also gets an easy answer, but everything is easy for Priest nowadays so you just have to hope they don't have every attachment in their swiss army knife of counterplay tools drawn.
A direct counter to skillbane xD looks like we are saved...for now.
It's like a golaka crawler for dragons, only you don't get the +1/1 but you get to kill a bigger minion.
Instead of a +1/+1, you immediately get the +2 attack for 1 mana guaranteed.
Say it to the golakka crawler that killed my 9/9 pirate on the arena.
Don't remember the movie enough to quote anything from it, but I bet the Flavor Text quotes something from the 1981 movie.
I expect a badass slaying animation. Don't disappoint me.
you know, it will probably have a shitty dagger animation like with The Black Knight
Or the "X" animation from assassinate. Maybe both?
Yeah, Runic Egg's animation is better than The Black Knight's.
FINALLY YESSSSS!!!! IVE BEEN WAITING FOR AN ANTI-DRAGON CARD FOR 3 YEARS!!!! YESSSS. ITS TERRIBLE BUT STILL!!!!!
How is this terrible? It has great stats for 3 mana with a free effect. If dragon Priests start flooding the ladder this card can keep them in check..
well it is good at what it does, but it's the same as Eater of Secrets in that like more than half of your games, it's a vanilla 3 mana 4 3, which isn't bad, but in this current meta, something needs to be "broken" or it has to have synergy with another broken card to be playable.
Priest Recieve the Boost of Dragon Package....
This card
"That escalated Quickly"
Can we get a hero who's a Dragon, similar to Jaraxxus being a Demon?
What about Sindragosa?
Thank you!
