Hunter's version of Challenger.
It's not a good target for silence at all, because silence usually costs 1 in value, and this minion is 1 mana off vanilla stats, so by using a silence on it you waste 1 mana and the opponent also basically loses 1 mana. It's an average target at best.
i just love using this card! he truly is king of the jungle or anywhere ; )
He does have decent stats, but he has the same health as a yeti, which is 2 mana less
It means 'OP in the value it has with its deathrattle effect'.
Somewhere out there the Mayor of Value Town will nod in agreement that Scar is quite scary.
Just look at his mane. Isn't it high enough? =D
MANE is an english word, which means a growth of long hair on the neck of a horse, lion, or other animal.
Better than Cairne...
Are there any good replacements for this card? I don't have it yet. :( I've been playing Stranglethorn Tiger and Spectral Knight as substitutes. However, I was thinking maybe Sludge Belcher be a better substitute than Stranglethorn since it has Deathrattle?
Savannah Highmane is probably the strongest 6 drop in the game. You can't really replace it because its awesome deathrattle is so unique. Stranglethorn Tigers are probably a good choice for higher mana drops, and Sludge Belcher is just great for soaking up damage and protecting your other high value squishy Hunter minions. ;)
I'd probably argue for a well-used Sylvanas. The Black Knight is maybe close.
For those arriving here this much after the fact; sludge belcher is probably the best you could do without a highmane, but really, you just wanna use highmane in a hunter deck.
On the bright side, it's only 200 dust to craft these. Easy-peasey.
Right now it has to compete with 3 other 6-drops for strongest 6-drop in the game: Fire Elemental, Sylvanas Windrunner and Emperor Thaurissan. Highmane's up there, but it has some competition for "Best 6-drop".
harvest golem on steroids helps you a lot in games? tell me more
That's a bad comparison, Golem is an extremely solid minion in the early game for trades. In the later turns, clunky minions like Highmane and Cairne Bloodhoof makes good trades AND carries you towards a victory.
