Ironbeak Owl is totally getting nerfed. There's no way they will let that thing live.
On the card itself, I think it is reasonable. It becomes a 4-Mana Ironbark Protector if you have a (0) cost Molten Giant. However it cannot copy an enemy minion's Attack and Health, which is kinda bad.
Overall, I don't think it is a bad card. It just needs to be in the right deck, which may or may not exist.
Discuss!
I didn't have a signature so Flux added one for me.
Hrm.
Reminds me of Faceless Manipulator.
incredibily good control tool, and a good one of in renolock
The silence meta is real!

Way too weak to silence.
Not bad. Not great either. For once I agree it feels meh. Maybe someone will break it with a combo I haven't thought about yet
Dragon decks. This screams out to be put in dragon decks.

When you're behind on the board...you only get a 1/1 taunt.
How utterly useless, at least a manipulator can copy an enemy.
Looks interesting.
I wonder if this minion turns into a 1/1 when silenced maybe there's something similar in the game already but I can't think about one right now.

hello ancient watcher/ancient stature
They already specified that silence will be nerfed. So this is likely to see play somewhere.
Nice
This can sorta replace Sunfury and Argus in Handlock, giving you a big taunt and another 8/8 for just 4.

Costs one less than Faceless Manipulator. Has Taunt.
Worse baseline stats. Can only target friendly minions. Doesn't copy card text. Much weaker to silence.
But it's still interesting. So... Hrm.
Friendly minions only, eh?
I don't think it can be silenced. It says it copies a minions stats, same text as Faceless Manipulator, and you can't silence him.
Pass.
