If you have a secret, this thing has the same total stats as a Sludge Belcher. This thing will definitely be seeing play.
Sludge Belcher didn't fully die to Fireball + Ping/Frostbolt + Ice Lance/Ice Lance + Shatter/Flamelance/Mulch/etc.
I'm not saying it's bad because it's not, just pointing out its not as good as belcher was.
It's stronger against minions, but hard removals will be its downfall, it's not as sticky as a sludge belcher, but it does enough damage to make your enemy think twice before trading in.
Rating: Good I guess
New Archetype: Control taunt deck - Control taunt mage because control Hunter ROFL!
For the Meta: Control Deck
Power Level: Weak to Playable maybe, is a 5 mana 4/7 even good? Its ok I guess, Duid plays a 5 mana 4/6 taunt but you ramp it out and it is always a good card and not a conditional card.
Will it see play: Nope
Theory Craft: Just for fun Secret Mage with the other somewhat playable stuff we got for that deck
Fun: Effigy is fun
Fen Creeper
Without a secret, this thing will not have a taunt. A fen creeper without a taunt is seriously weak sause.
This could really help Freeze Mage make a comeback, but the question is what do you remove to tech this in? Maybe one Blizzard? Maybe both?! I am not sure myself, but the increased the size of the taunt for the mana is pretty impressive, and getting rushed down by minions is Freeze Mage's biggest problem right now.
Odd that this isn't a beast
I am assuming because it is a statue, but you have a point. If this was a beast, it would be a great card to get from The Curator
It would be too good as a beast. It's already better than Fen Creeper. The last thing we need is hound masters on this thing.
Yea now that I think about this, it would be too powerful in a hunter secret deck. It would give you a beast to activate all their beast cards.
Secret Paladin PogChamp
I almost want to give this a try in Hunter, but their best secrets are easy to trigger. It would have been a nice Taunt wall to help slow down the board as they get to turn 8.
RIP good taunt for priests
Pretty much only useful in Paladin, since you can easily play secret + this on the same turn. Relying on a secret staying up is too risky, except with Ice Block, but you won't be playing Ice Block early on. Effigy could work, but then what do you play on turn 4?.
Also a 4/7 taunt for 5 is good, but it's not absurdly good, and for this kind of a requirement it needs to be absurd.
Definitely could help a control mage. Though being said it all comes down to the usefulness of taunt, considering we've had Feugen before, and on its own it still didn't really do much.
agree, the condition to get the taunt and the +1/+1 is a little bit hard in a realistic even game
I dunno. It's reasonable to suggest that something like Ice Block might work pretty well.
Control Mage maybe finally?
Little known fact: Avians are much better attackers than Ancients.
