Shield slam on a 4/5 taunt stick? Sure I guess.
Shield slam with a very well statted body and taunt and dragon type? Yeah... it's good... lol
Very good in duels
in a vacuum, its S-tier but an S-tier card in a D-tier deck archetype isn't very good.
A mini-set is not enough to break the stranglehold pirates have on warrior
silus the darkmoon gnome and a ashtongue 1/4 for a armor otk
Uh, well this is an insane card. Ysera and Alex are both already potentially good in Warrior decks, then you have a few other good dragons too.
what?
solid stats for the cost and packed with shield slam, interesting, but does control warrior need this? will dragon warrior be a thing again?
Does control warrior need this? yes
Will dragon warrior be a thing? Really depends on the rest of the set, but i doubt that it would be a control deck if it does because of The Demon Seed
Demon Seed actually is not a threat to CW at all after the nerf. Last season I had like 1-2 losses out of 30 games. They just insta-lose to Rattlegore, especially after copied with faceless/KelThuzad combo.
The problem is priest. Unfavourable.
Back to the original post, control warrior does benefit a lot from this card regardless of dragon warrior deck being a thing again or not. The same reason people put Dynomatic in non-mech CW.
Great synergy with scrapyard colosssus.
