People are saying "Big Game Hunter" but I don't see any at the moment, do you?
I don't see the expansion out at the moment, do you? Your argument sounds as stupid as "boo, Grim Patron is bad cause it doesn't fit any current deck" or " Myserious Challenger is bad because why would anyone want to put bad those bad Paladin secrets in their deck". Tyrantus gets killed by BGH, so if it becomes a staple (maybe adapting it to have Windfury) BGH will be played for sure.
All druid legendaries were truly one of a kind till this crap showed up. Jade makes this redundant and astral communion is moving out of standard. What is the use of this hunk of useless meat?
I was really looking forward for a mid-ranged choose one legendary to pair with Fandral. Instead blizzard disappoints with raw stats minion that druid doesnt need.
Well if my theory is correct I was thinking of something along the lines of the quest being about saving mana (I later saw a very similar application of this in last day's brawl, where the hero power cost as much as your remaining mana and that mana would go towards decorations). This of course would make the quest hard to complete, because typically playing on curve is the best play in HS (but with some playtesting they could figure out the optimal amount of mana to make the quest good enough to run). As for the reward I thought of it would be a 5 mana spell that would refresh your Mana Crystals whenever you hit 0 mana for the rest of the game. In that case 10 mana cards would make a lot of sense (since you get to play them for free), although the quest may be on the broken side then so I am not so sure that that is going to be the case anymore. It is much more likely that you will have to do something like 'Adapt 10 times' to keep it generic and simple just like Blizzard likes it ;). Oh well, I still think other classes have been given some pretty interesting cards so I guess I will get to have some fun with those.
Another 9-10 mana useless Leg for druid collection. The only successful druid leg costed 4 mana but they never learn.
Must be why Fr0zen just came in second in the championship using not one but two 9-10 mana druid legendaries
Aviana was pretty bad until Kun came in to the game, but Fandral is hands down the best druid legendary in the game. He is used in every druid deck except in most Astral druids (not very competitive though).
Since the combo change druid only got back being viable for comp when fandral hit, and jade made it certain that he is never going away until the rotation.
Sure the other legendaries work, but they are nowhere near as game changing as Fandral. Kun Aviana is still just a variation of the old Malygod druid and less popular brann c'thun decks, but Fandral is what made them all possible in the large scale.
I'm going to hold off final judgement on this card until I see the full Druid set. I think that Druids are going to be VERY adapt heavy, and this card getting adaptations is a very scary prospect.
maybe if someone tells the guys at blizzard that dinosaurs had feathers and were closer to birds than lizards in appearance, they'll be forced to go back and redo all this crappy, generic artwork.
Can't be targeted by spells or hero powers.........but CAN be targeted by Menagerie Warden.
Unless you also play like Defender of Argus or Sunfury Protector (which you generally wouldn't in a beast deck), it doesn't really matter. Either your opponent takes care of Tyrantus on his turn and you don't get your Menagerie Warden value, or he doesn't and just goes face in which case you've spent two turns doing basically nothing to adress your opponents board and you're dead. Tyrantus + Menagerie Warden is not gonna be a thing, barring some ridiculous card yet to be revealed.

This is the worst artwork of the released cards so far and its a legendary to boot. Looks like something my 6 year old son drew in kindergarten.
Well.........I honestly don't like anything about this card.......even in beast druid it seems like a bad choice......the art is bland.....the effect is bland......the stats are good but way too slow......hopefully the druid quest reward will be better.....Druid is starting to seem like a wash this expansion.....I guess Blizzard just wants Jade druid to stay a thing

Druids will play Jade and some niche beast. This legendary is just a filler for ramp, hemet, big cow decks

Aviana saw near zero play before Kun.

Ram Wrangler rng got bit better.
Could see play in ramp Druid. Imagine an untargetable 12/12 at turn 6, GG.
We don't know yet what does beast Druid has to offer in this expansion, so it could fit there too, obviously.
Also, maybe adapt Druid becomes a thing if Druid get more cards like Evolving Spores

It's a win more card so meh who knows if this is actually gonna see any play. If it does maybe bgh could come back, it can target this thing

When life gives you lemons, trade'em for limes and get some Coronas!
Dust it!
Big Game Hunter come back!!!!
I think it is totally playable with Kun the Forgotten King, or Aviana shenanigans, or also with some sort of ramp which is Druid's theme.
The art though...it is just plain boring, too generic, it has no personality whatsoever, nothing. pff...
Omg what a POTATO!
