Why dragon synergy? Anyway, seems arena-y to me. Defensive dragon cards need to make a splash (dusk or bookwyrm) this isn't that nor does it synergize off itself if you have two.
Considering that netherpsite historian and draknoid operative are rotating, I don’t think dragon priest will survive the rotation. Don’t think any other deck will run dragons either. So this card will probably see no play.
4 mana 5/4 with rush. The stats are not ideal for trading, but I think it is strong enough in Dragon decks (you can dicate the first trade). Without trigger (worst case), 4/4 is still not losing the game. Sometimes Arcane Tyrant is played for 5. So I think it is a playable card if a Dragon deck will be viable.
Cross-tribe synergy? That's a bit uncommon and interesting to see. Not sure if Beast / Dragon synergy will ever be a thing, but not too bad of a card for Arena.
Can't imagine it being played in Constructed, unless they will push for more Dragon support to bring it up in certain classes (which they won't because it has nothing to do with the theme of the expansion).
Hmm, for now many of the rush cards seem to be arena exclusive ones (with the exception of the hunter legendary and probably that dog). Amm, unless we see a card, which synergises with the rush mechanic like crazy, kinda sad to see that the new one, which the devs are hardly pushing, looks very underwhelming and out of place.
Meh, I just imagined, that the player somehow had dragon synergies, how this would be a 4 mana 5/4, which clears a minion and pushes for tempo. You are probably right, but I just didn't see another logical explanation behind this.
A 5/4 with Rush for 4 mana would be playable so I guess this might work in a Dragon deck. I could see it in Spiteful Priest, for example. Unlikely to see play in optimised decks though.
Dragon decks have always at the very least been hovering at fringe, if not viable. Either way they're always fun. I am excited to see a nice control card coming out for everyone to test out. I am surprised by all the negativity I am seeing on here today between this and WANTED!.

1) Very nice arena card.
2) Bad beast for DK rexxar.
3) ???
[edit] - I don't understand why this would have dragon synergy. Can someone explain?

Sounds a Playable card, but you may easily find a better 4 drop.

Duskbreaker is just by far much better.
Rumors are carried by haters, spread by fools, and accepted by idiots.
100% Arena card, won't find any use in standard, pretty much trash drop there.

Rush minions are basically suicidal. That means you must be desperate to gain control of board, that’s planning your deck strategy for being behind.
In simple words, we need Deathrattle and Rush.
Seems playable if Dragon decks exist in future.
It's like a worse Blackwing Corruptor that deals 2 more damage and takes damage from trade..
If we'll get something Like Drakonid Operative, or other good Dragons people will play it just for synergy.
Ered'achor! Havik! Galar!

BORING SERIOUSLY RUSH ECHO RUSH ECHO I ALREADY GOT BORED FROM REVEALS CREATIVITY IS ZERO.
For the card 4 mana 5/4 is not bad compared to Muck Hunter stats
Also don't fkn compare this to Duskbreaker do you use Duskbreaker to kill a single target with 5 health ? NO so stop that dumb argument.

Cool art, trash card
Don't mind me just passing by

Would be good if it was a dragon and not a beast
New beasts after Frozen Throne are not part of DK Rexxar build a beast pull.
Wow, this card is a definition of nonsense.
