I just had a crazy idea: how about a big egg paladin deck. I know most streamers say the big egg is trash but I think it has some potential at least, especially with that big re summon card. Could give you some late game,
If it turns out the Egg works your deck seems good. Aggressive but with some big pay off potential.
Problems will arise if you drop the big egg on turn 5 and then it's silenced/hexed/polymorphed, etc. That's a dead turn, which is brutal and probably game ending.
It's just a high risk card. And everyone usually has one silence in their deck... or at least, a majority of opponents will...

I really like the egg, and the mind games it creates! You can use it to bait out silences. For example, You play egg. Your opponent silences with spellbreaker. You just magnetize it with Zilliax and trade with the spellbreaker. You now have a 3/7 with taunt and lifesteal. If they don't silence it you can use Blessing of Kings on it and trade or go face.
Has potential. Unfortunately doesn't have the insta proc like egg huntard does. So you only get like 2 instead of 3 or 4 or even more as this particular version also has no Carnivourous Cubes either.
I think people are just bad if they're silencing it straightaway when it hits the board - buffs that are worth running usually buff a decent bit of health; it will be very difficult imo to buff it and to kill it on the same turn (A magnetized Glowtron on it, for example, leaves it as a 2/8. There are not that many minions played that have 8+ attack). That for me is where the egg becomes sketchy since the opponent can leave it up, wait for you to activate it, silence it, and kill it, and it is too big to be an AoE deterrent. I haven't played with it though so try it out yourself!
Hi guys.

Kripp rated that big egg as his second best paladin card.
You are right.
That seems to be the main problem with it.
I think egg will be good actually. Since the egg itself a mech it will be easier to get activators.
i'm not sure about the 1/3 paladin mech in a deck with kangor's endless army... bringing back a 1/3 is just too bad

met some egg paladins. Very powerful decks. Good silence targeting is needed so yed don´t silence the egg straight away. It´s not hunter.
