I don't get why some people don't like this ability. It is one of the best from the new hero power bundle. While the other upgrades just make the hero powers a bit better (hunter, rogue, warlock are the losers here) this hero power may enable a new Paladin archetype: A token Paladin Yes Quartermaster is obvious but also Sea Giant , Knife Juggler , Buff Spells, Defender of Argus can combo great with this ability. If Paladin also gets a mass buff spell, the token Pala is more or less confirmed ;) (Especially since there is also this new neutral token generator card)

Who can take your trash out? Stomp it down for you? Shake the plastic bag and do the twisty thingy, too?
I imagine in that 130 cards, we're going to see a few more that augment the Silver Hand Recruit/Hero Power, etc. There was the one apparently neutral card (yeah right) that will summon additional Recruits... This suggests to me that Spam & Buff will be core Paladin gameplay and I expect we'll see more cards come out along those lines.. Totally agree aboutQuartermaster. My guess is that we'll have another Quartermaster-like card come out.
Maybe playable? It's hard to say. Makes Juggler, QM, and (dare I say it) Bolvar better, and having 2 minions on command could be nice. Might help getting recruits to stick so you can buff them in buff Paladin decks.

Hearthstone is a math game. If you think it's overpowered, do the math, compare it to other similar cards, and then if it doesn't all add up, complain about it being overpowered.
This fits the lore even less than the starting hero power. Paladins are high quality soldiers, flooding the board sounds something rats would do if there were rats in hearthstone (idea for next weekly design competition kappa).
upgraded hero powers matters the most when your loosing. Whats the difference if warrior has 30 or 40 armor on top of his 15 hp when hes dominating you, or if priest heals from 28 or 26 to full health when he established board. Damn, upgraded hero powers have most value, when your loosing side. NOW, thats something to consider and evaluate opinion :D i just didnt considered that at all.
Except for mage (and maybe druid and rogue). Awesome for keeping board control. Also I don't think warlock's upgraded hero power is that amazing, it just removes the drawback but doesn't actually do anything more. And shaman is just horrible, Justicar just makes it more reliable so it can possibly even compete with other classes' starting hero powers.

Tommy Wiseau plays Paladin? Interesting.

BGH says hi
I hope BGH says hi to Bolvar, that makes it easier to play Boom, Nef, Rag...
Please use BGH on a 5 drop. By the way, "it has 7 attack so BGH owns it" is a really lazy counter argument. No shit.
You sayin' I like dudes?
This Hero Power may pave the way for a potential Paladin Dude Deck. I can't wait for the other Paladin cards.
