Has some use over Earthen Ring Farseer, but not much. I'd say worse than Infested Tauren in Arena.
lmao this card is trash
This is NOT Flash Heal. This is a 0/5 with taunt + a generic 3/2.
Which isn't bad! This card might see play in Priest primarily. Otherwise, maybe Mage, or other classes that get some value from playing cards like these to try and slow the game down.
But again, let me reiterate: this heals nothing. There is a disgusting amount of creature removal in this game. If this card draws it out then that's great! Unless you're trying to avoid lethal on the next turn. Because this is no heal.

If played on turn 4 as player 1. It should be rather hard for your opponent to kill it off without wasting his entire turn doing just that. lets say you are in board disadvantage and your opponent plays a 3/4 on his turn 3. you play this on your turn 4. What is worst case scenario he does? and how hard would it be to come back after that?
People defending this card is pretty surprising; a 2-drop (3/2) plus, effectively, a Shieldbearer (0/5) for 4 mana? This card produces almost no value in dealing with the board. Sure it may heal for 5 or 6, but you just did virtually nothing with your turn 4. If you want a body to just soak damage, then just play Doomsayer, which has the same health, 7, but an opportunity to clear the board for 2 less mana. I think the scenarios for this card to get real value will be few and far between and in the end, the rarely played Senjin will just be better or if you want actual health, then Refreshment Vendor. I'm fairly confident that I won't be playing a 4 drop that gets killed by 1 drops (the 3/2 getting cleaned up by an Abusive Sergeant or pretty much any granular minion in a zoo or aggro deck).
Might have been interesting as a 3-cost card. The main reason Sen'jin is good is that it consistently 2-for-1 trades with lower-cost minions. This will trade one-for-one while stalling for a turn, which would at least have been worthwhile for priest, which is dying for 3 drops and could use some stall to get to its board clears. As a T4 play, it does nothing of value.
Pulling it off on consecutive turns with Brann would be pretty amazing though.
You misunderstood me. I said I don't know the worst case but the disciple is already a bad case. Worst case will probably lose you the game. But the question is more: What is the average case. And on average, I am pretty sure you will be behind in cards or at least in tempo after playing this Arcanosmith. As for the Floating one mana, he could play additionally an Abusive Sergeant, removing the taunt completely. And there are surely
But on a more abstract level: The worst case would be if he improves his board and leaves you behind with nothing. And I can see that happening with Arcanosmith much more often than with other 4 drops.
As a very tiny maybe, it might work in zoo or in a token shaman deck, but I doubt it. Simply because there are better cards that can do what Arcanosmith can. But by any means, go on and try the card once it's available. If noone does, we will never know for sure.

I almost wish it was a 0/8 taunt simply because 0 attack minions are very low value, shieldbearer is 1 mana for 0/4 taunt so theoretically the taunt you get should be worth 2 shieldbearers to get a 3/2 which normally costs in at 2 to hit that 4 mana slot.
Understandably that could be a bit too strong for stall and would force even more silence than is currently run but at the least we already have 3/5 taunts as a baseline, thus a taunt with no punching power is tied to a 3/2 may seem to be costed accurately but I'm a bit skeptical, as Senjin regularly 2 for ones your standard hunter minions and this doesn't do a good job of stopping the warrior aggression we see a lot of at the moment either since they won't even need to commit any of their removal for this taunt.
Tl.Dr: A zero attack minion needs one hell of an upside and eating two shots Alex's chosen sure as hell isn't enough of one.
People who are saying this card is bad have 0 faith in Priest's basic cards like Inner Fire.
Here is how I see this card. This is basically 8/7 with partial Taunt for 5 mana. Inner Fire is 1 mana and turns the 0/5 Taunt into a 5/5. This means for 5 mana you have a 3/2 and a 5/5 on the board and the 5/5 is Taunt.
It's a pleasure to meet you.
I think this only works in evolve shaman. I think of adding one of this in place of one defender of Argus. This helps generate value ex nihil, which is the most important thing for evolve decks.
Of course the class that can actually use this card is f*cking Warrior. Welcome to another adventure in Garroshstone, Heroes of Warriorcraft!
I noticed that Lightforge Arena has given this card a score of 28 - Terrible.
I've drafted it twice in Arena so far, and I would rank it as below average - around 41. It's not *that* bad - it's awkward for your opponent to deal with.
