I genuinely hope that "Wall warrior" becomes a thing where you use tons of armor gain and taunts with Bolster and King's Defender, just to see the aggro tears flow.
I hope the new Warrior legendary is a solid 2-4 drop with taunt and that we get at least onw more class taunter and taunt synergy, I'd love to see taunt warrior become a thing!
the only way warrior would need taunt minions is if warrior was played in a new way. i could see this card adding face protection in high stakes trade decisions. IE leaving meat on the board.
it looks pretty awful to be honest. but the last spell was also warrior rush oriented. i will definitely be in the lab trying to fit this card in a deck. also these low mana spells are a pretty harsh nerf on all the ridiculous OP spell draw mechanic minions. this could just be a dead card for the sake of balance, like burgle.
This is actually a very good card, the pay-off is huge. A full Cenarius boost for your board is nothing to scoff at. Even Power of the Wild is only fringe unplayable because token druid is dead at the moment. Savage Roar/Leokk/Dire Wolf Alpha/Powermace/Defender of Argus are all playable buffing cards in the right deck, so the effect is a desirable one. On the other hand, Mark of the Wild isn't good enough on its own (although it used to be played as a buff and TBK/BGH activator in druid), so you want a deck capable of consistently casting it for +4/+4.
You definitely want the Ancient Watcher package in there, patron has proved that Battle Rage is a monster card draw engine, I can just imagine warriors sitting there behind a huge wall of taunt with spread damage. Darkscale Healer would be a real card again!
The real issues are that noone has built the deck yet, and whether there are enough singly good cards to support the archetype. I think all it would take is one really good taunt minion at 3-mana (sorry Lil' Exorcist ><) to really push it to playability.

Turn 5 sludge belcher. Turn 6. Senjin + bolster.
they really want warrior to play taunts now.
I was hoping there were going to buff patron, its underpowered now with this new expansion
This can either go very well or very poorly... its like feign death....
Combo with deathbite and double dread corsair into 2 mana 2 5/5 taunts. Insane tempo play.

This card has a lot of potential - could be very useful in slowing down aggro decks.
