Okay...so who approves artwork? Cause I get no sense that this is the biggest creature of the set nor that spells can't target it. It looks like they just took this out of a dinosaur book.
Why would they waste good art on a shitty card like this?

Dont hate me druid players is just a personal opinion. I'm glad druid recived trash cards this time to become weaker.Anw druid will play jade. Best seck against mid range and control sow nothing to lose here.
You're another one(of many) thinking it wrong, if blizz doesn't give druid something interesting or special to play with, then druid will stick to jades. Your way of thinking would make the jade meta more possible than the other way.
Why do people think this card is so bad? Seriously if you play this minion while your opponent has a weakon board they are seriously fucked since they cant kill it otherwise.
thats disappointing, i thought blizzard would make the Druid legendary deal with Adept but i guess not. This card would probably be playable if it had Taunt,
Posts like this make me wish I could downvote in this thread. Is it a joke I'm not getting or do people legit think that the existence of BGH somehow makes this card worse?

Well you are the guy who deserves to get mercilessly beaten by Jade Druid for the rest of time. The class legendary doesn't have to be good in Jade Druid decks and it could have been something to push the class in another direction. Instead, you (in your infinite wisdom) are happy this happened, which is like saying I am happy with druid being the Jade class for the foreseeable future. So fuck players like me who would rather play something else in our main class, but are pigeonholed into playing Jade to be competitive. Thanks a lot for your opinion and hopefully the rest of the cards for Druid make the cards we have seen so far good because otherwise Druid will remain the Jadefest that it has been for the last few months. I don't personally think its an OP deck, but man is it boring.

Sure it's not Am'gam Rager levels of bad but the thing is, it is an entirely uninspired design. "Here bigcreature and... IT CAN'T BE TARGETED BY SPELLS!"
Like wooooow. Sure it can wreck face but it's neither interesting nor appealing and it isn't super strong either. If you get to turn 10 yeah you can play this but you could also Keep playing like 5 1 Mana 10/10s from your Jade Idol who for all intents and purposes have the same weakness as this guy.
People calling it boring doesn't realize it fits the theme perfectly, just like King Krush.
Cards like King Mosh has cool concepts, but doesn't fit the flavor of Devilsaurs.
It has a simple card text and huge stats, it is unique in its own right - just not as creative.
I'll run it in Astral Ramp for sure, where you can play it on turns 3~4 best case scenario, rushing even some cancer decks. Cheating it out from Y'Shaarj will be pure gold too. Conventional (competitive) ramp is more defensive oriented with big taunts, it won't be as popular there.

The existence of BGH does indeed make this card worse, because even if it gets popular, so will BGH. It's just straight up a bad card.
It's in a weird place. Ramp Druid could play it, but better value cards (taunts, Ysera, Y'Shaarj) are just more of a fit than a big boy that probably should be hitting face. Historically at least, Beast Druid has been better playing aggressively and topping out at Warden or maybe Curator. 10 mana for your finisher in a deck that doesn't ramp and will not want to hold Innervates is just too out of plan; better to swarm and Roar. Maybe things change, but Druid hasn't ever been built in a direction where I would get excited to include this card.
Pretty dull and Druid seems to have got some crappy cards generally (although a couple of interesting/fun ones), their others better be good.
That said I still think it's pretty playable, I mean if you're building a Ramp deck why wouldn't you include it really? If you can get it out even a couple of turns early and your opponent doesn't have an answer (and any given deck will only have one or two answers to this at most) then it's a pretty massive threat, despite the fact it's boring and lacks immediate impact.
Because it has anti-synergy with Barnes (which in itself is almost enough) and because it doesn't do anything. If you spent your first 4-5 turns ramping, this is not what you want on your board against aggro or midrange, and barely against control either for that matter.

I hope Druid gets some powerful cards this expansion. I would hate Druid just to be the jade class. It's so boring to play against and to play as.
I would like to play this but the artwork is too hideous that i simply cannot. D:
Timmy gets a new toy I guess. Not sure why this is a legendary and not a class common or rare, but ok.

Disappointing - I was hoping for something more creative.
Why not just play a 12/12 Jade Idol instead?

This card is actually pretty great against Control. Terrible against aggro so it might not see play.
