Not worse but different. These are all different, and used with a different synergy in mind. Hell, Bloodfen Raptor can easily activate beast synergies (for example it can be buffed with +2/+2 and taunt from Houndmaster, which is also basic). But Ice Rager 3 5/2 (no minion family, no effect) versus Magma Rager 3 5/1 (no minion family, no effect) is as straightforward of a comparison as you'll ever going to get.
Not that anyone will use this card either, but power creep is not anymore blatant than releasing a 5/1 then releasing a 5/2. I don't get why they don't just buff really crappy cards :P.
Guys, they obviously released this card instead of buffing Magma Rager so Ragnaros doesn't become even more OP when they Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V the first Tavern Brawl.

should have Battlecry: summon two 1/1 boombots
We are going to see all members of Rager family?
I'm seeing a lot of Butthurt Ragers right now.
Next expansion: Earth Rager, 353, Taunt
Following expansion: Water Rager 353, Charge
Here is an idea for a new card: "Earth Rager" 3 mana 5/2 with Taunt... kappa
Buff Magma Rager or riot. (ex. make it 2 mana)
That's why this company called Blizzard, they favor cold than hot.
they couldnt even make a unique name. XD

And I got shaman to level 52 for 2 golden magma ragers.. D:

Would it be too much to ask for an elemental subtype?
In before Ice Rager nerf.
is this card a joke? seriously just buff magma rager to 2 hp and give us something else instead of this?
You're next Ironforge Rifleman
Next expansion leak.
Magma Rager is thinking of retirement from Hearthstone. First Moonfire, now Ice Rager?! Hearthstone encourages bullying!
