With Brann, this card might be worth playing.
Im so sad this guy doesn't deal 3 damage :(
I would only play it to activate my Nerubian Egg, but I'd rather taunt it up or give it +2 attack from Abusive Sergeant like pretty much everybody does. Plus, the competition for the 3 mana spot is so fierce nowadays that it makes it even more difficult to use it, also because it creates problems on your deathrattle minions as well.
4/3 for 3 is good but not amazing in terms of stats (4/3 is above average, but 3/4 would be better), and the battlecry is not good enough imo. While it kills the smaller guys like leper/clockwork gnome and mad scientist, the 2 damage leaves shredders and harvest golems at 1, and sylvanas/belchers on 3. These odd amounts of damage can be annoying for a paladin to deal, given that their conscripts from the hero power aren't consistent damage as they are easily removed and don't have charge. Furthermore, it hurts your own deathrattles too, which is usually undesirable. Maybe it would be more useful as a "purifier" of deathrattles if it silenced instead, possibly at the cost of stats if that's deemed too strong.
It seemed at the time of release to counter the Undertaker style decks (before undertaker nerf) now it still has value but less so.
Still works ok against agressive decks like hunter it killsLeper Gnome, Mad Scientist etc.
Just remember not every card has to have a good use all the time, a lot of cards are niche examples like: Mind Control Tech, Explosive Sheep etc only have their place if the meta or your deck shifts to a point where it is a good pickup.
Knife Juggler throws after his battle cry.
What you don't see is the basketball in his right hand.
Saw a very interesting interaction in my arena the other day.
I had a Mad Scientist out on the board, no other creatures on secrets in play (I was a mage)
A paladin dropped Scarlet Purifier and killed my Mad Scientist brining in a Mirror Entity into play.
The Mirror Entity then triggered and I got a Scarlet Purifier summoned.
So it seems like the process for cards is.
Battlecry resolves > Deathrattle resolves > then the card is played onto the board.
Another card that only looks good on paper, but ultimately won't see much play as most deathrattle minions are undesirable to kill anyway (nerubian egg, haunted creeper, mad scientist, dark cultist, void caller)
Paladin deserves this strength given they poor performance after Naxx. It could have been stronger, but instantly blowing up most small minions in a Hunter deck is enough.
Also, it's another way to blow up your worn Fording so that you achieve 6 + 5 damage in one turn with your strongest minion.
I'm on Assassin's Creed on something like that? Haha. Just love the artwork, the stats AND the battlecry.
This+Explosive Sheep is amazing. I will certainly play Paladin this season.
Stat Value: balanced, although slightly on the bad side (4/3)
Card text: Baron Rivendare is now IN-FORM! This guy can activate eggs for you! and Mad Scientist! and Skittles!
Art: Looks pretty damn good.
I really like the art of this card, especially the color.
3 mana 4/3 That is awesome! But the battlecry sucks. Nerubian Egg has deathrattle why would I play this against it?
Because egg can be yours. =)
This is a smart Consecration on a 4/3 body that is even cheaper than the original spell.
I take it!
Can't believe blizz won't release 1, just 1, card that isn't situational for pally. If anyone here plays pally control they have had at least one turn 6-10 hero power. Pally still gonna be hands down worst deck post GvG.
I can take it or leave it... where is the FUN paladin cards.. common blizz your letting me down here. Give pally something fun.. are you hiding it on mee??
I guess Interrogator Vishas wasn't good enough to be a named minion, he's a little dark a creepy after all.
