The armor is always good, and the attack can be used in a pinch so this is a good card.
Definitely an underrated card, I think it's worth a slot in any slower Druid deck even ignoring Fandral Staghelm due to it being a good, flexible lifegain option for Druids, which with the nerfing of Ancient of Lore is very valuable.
Here are the options
Does anyone else see a fish?
the choose option costs 1 mana
This card will allow Druids of all forms to kick Freeze Mages squarely in the nuts, and, as mentioned, it combines well with Fandral. Great card.
With the new druid legendary. This would be fantastic. Great control card. With removal and sustain
this card is actually pretty good for slower decks, not only that, but with fandral, this thing becomes really stupid for its cost.
Mill druid loses lots of defensive tools (because mill druid is not mill rogue, you don't throw oracles whole game, you do it once and suddenly opponent is deep in fatigue). So this card actually maters, its both heal, protection from comboes and good removal. Mill-reno druid might be ~tier2 deck in standart with all this slowdown.
Great against aggro or midrange, it can take down a bothersome minion or buy you time for late game, like warriors shield block without the draw but more armor. Absolutely amazing!
The only downside being that you could theoretically cast Healing Touch onto minions. But I agree, this looks like a great stall card for impending (C'Thun) Ramp Druids.
Strictly better Healing Touch?
Not strictly, since you could theoretically heal your minions with healing touch. But overall more versatile and guaranteed life-total increase make it a way stronger card overall imo.
My initial thought is that it's pretty decent, but then I remember Heroic Strike and Healing Touch, and I get much less excited.
this card let you chose:
clearing a minion/pushing for lethal
or buy time
LOL AWESOME!!
Heroic Strike costing 1 more mana, or Ice Barrier which isn't a secret.. Yeah, should be used with Savagery
Fandral Staghelm
Most likely the only reason to run this card.
This card might just be the most ResidentSleeper here, but I think it might have a place in an aggro druid list. I'd like to try it for sure.
