This card does not power creep Argent Squire, and the people who say that Righteous Defender isn't power creep because it's a class card are just as wrong. Why does this discussion have to be went through each expansion?
Argent Squire was already a premium quality card, this is even a bit better and this single card can possibly help Divine pally become a viable deck, ao I am voting Meta-defining.
So now you can run 4 1/1 DS minions now I guess. Taunt doesn't do much on this lil lady.
Just like annoyotron did nothing..
This vodka..
This is one of the cards I fear will be a pain when you need to trade enemy aggro minions but you can't. Maybe even Knife Juggler will see play with this.
Well that's got to be a good thing (and my best deck is Paladin right now, so I should disagree, but I don't). Stonehill Defender is just silly in Paladin right now. Shaman probably needs a crap taunt as well (can't remember if it has got one in this new expansion already).
The only class that can play more Tirions/Tarims than me right now is Priest ;)
I think that this card sees play in Mid-range (non-murloc) and Control Paladin alongside Corpsetaker as this + Tirion+ Wickerflame pretty much guarantees at least a 4 Mana divine shield/taunt with the potential for lifelink (the big missing piece here). Also this card is INCREDIBLE in stabilizing against PW in the midgame once paladin had cleared it's board (also just does an amazing job of protecting doomsayer in general and has great synergy with Rallying Blade and Tareem). Love it, hopefully it does more to stop aggro then escalate it but you never know with 1-drops.

This card has a lot of potential.
Sure taunt doesnt do much for it if you play it on turn 1 or 2, but if you draw or play this later it can really mess up your opponent's turn.
Can be a great turn 1 play if more low-cost divine shield synergy cards are revealed.

sick
Good combo with that card that gets "divine shield, taunt.. etc" depending on what is still in your deck. Forget the name.
This seems bonkers and busted. Aggro pally is going to be a thing.
Disappointed that it's not named Silver Hand Recruit. It would have been amazing if it was a Silver Hand Recruit because of the Synergies.

My Handbuff paladin is gonna love this. With Chillblade Champion, Corpsetaker and this probably being staples in it.
Argent Squire and Annoy-o-Tron power creep. Well these 2 cards are neutral, so this card seems balanced.
Aggro Divine Shield Paladin seems promising but I still have my doubt about consistencies.

In Paladin, divine shield minions sort of have taunt anyways.

goodbye argent squire, you shall be missed. (in paladin decks anyway) xD
Rumors are carried by haters, spread by fools, and accepted by idiots.
lol what a great card.
Wow this card is insane. An anti-aggro aggro card.
Justicar Trueheart in Rogue?

This is basically Annoy-O-Tron for 1 mana. Crazy strong card.
