Taunt copes so well with things like Pyro and other spells ot the face.
/sarcasm.
I like the card but if the meta is too fast it may be difficult to play it.
Nice artwork!
Seem... okay?
I guess it's alright though i think it would have deserved just a bit more health. but how good it is remains to be seen.
Pyro and other spells to the face remove it by killing the enemy hero first. This card if in the meta will only force player to focus more on spell win conditions.
That's exactly why not all classes excell every meta. The ones good at spell damage will be better if this card becomes a thing. It's up to the player to choose the better classes each meta.
A decent "filler" card for a Reno deck. Not great, but not bad either.
Definitely overpriced, but not as bad as many are saying. The only real counter is silence, and we've heard that might get nerfed. He's kind of what Bolf Ramshield should have been: a minion that must be traded with in order to get to the face, or to other minions. The trouble with most taunts is they can just be fireballed or transformed or something. This guy has to be traded with or minion-silenced. In that case it just eats up a silence that could've gone to another threat, considering if you're playing this minion he's gonna be in a control deck, and he escapes BGH (nerf nerf nerf yes we know). However, it is too expensive for it's cost. Blizzard values Ironbark Protector as an 8/8 for 8 with taunt. Arcane Nullifier has taught us that, when added to taunt, it is worth about 1 attack, so this should in reality be a 7/8 for 8, or better yet a 6/9 for 8
Spells to your face counter this. If you don't have much health, this minion will do nothing from a few spells to the face to make you lose. You need some health (ideally at least 10-15) to make this minion worth it. Enough health to be out of the spell death range.
So the new Deathlord for standard mode now costs 9 mana.
How does this compare to Deathlord in any way?
They both have taunt, sure, but that's not really enough to compare them like that?
Either buff it's stats, or lower it's cost.
I get there's bad legendaries, but I genuily fail to see how this got the approval to get into this expansion
You question this but not The Boogeymonster?
Glorified Arcane Nullifier for 9 mana.
Why is this a legendary?
can be possibly put strict onto the battlefild through Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound or Varian Wrynn
otherwise it is a 9-drop out of Big Game Hunter range and in the range of The Black Knight. Something like untargetable two cost more Ancient of War
So overpriced. For 9 mana it should 5/12 at least, because, for instance, Ysera is 4/12 for 9 mana and she has a really good effect.
AND WHY IS THE HECK THIS IS A LEGENDARY?
So Rend Blackhand will be able to kill it.
