I feel like this is the strongest Spell Damage minion ever printed. You don't play spell damage minions for board presence, you play them for an extra point of damage to the one spell that you plan on playing right away, and you rarely care about the body that is left behind, or bank on it surviving 'til your next turn. If you play this one mid to late game when it is a 4/1 Rush, you can use the spell damage right away, then take out a mid game/damaged big minion. Potentially two removals in one turn. This is one to watch when the Expansion goes live.
EDIT: Yeah, totally thought this had Rush on it, like the other 2 cards that swap health and attack in the same announcement. Bloodmage Thalnos fills this role much better. I take back all the nice things I said about this card.
It doesnt say rush in the card description...
Lmao. How do you take the time to write an entire paragraph but not take the time to read what the card actually does?
Magic Duskboar or Discount Dalaran Mage? Such game-changing decisions.
Haha worgens are better at magic then Dalaran Mages :D
Everyone is better at magic than Dalaran Mage.
i'd agree that the 4/1 is terrible considering it probably wouldn't survive. However I think the 1/4 stat line is a lot better than you think. It's health heavy sure but that means it can survive, and the point of this minion isn't to smack things or go face it's to provide spell damage which can be useful. Especially on a minion that will probably survive a turn or two.
