There are only a few aspects of HS with no direct counter and one of them is taunt. Currently the only way to bypass taunt are the 50% chance to attack wrong enemy minions/weapons and it can be very powerful. Minions and spells that would grant a "Leap" mechanism to bypass taunt minions would be pretty strong but also balanced. It could be a +1 cost keyword but I could see it even being worth +2. A charge minion with Leap would be insane.

What about Silence?

People may disagree with me, but I don't think that taunt is a mechanic that needs a direct counter, as it itself counters aggro. It is the only way to keep your opponent from repeatedly hitting you in the face, and allows you to play slower, frailer minions as they can hide behind taunt.

please stop trying to buff aggro it is stupidly strong already

Would not see play - silence is a better and more flexible answer.

Silencing or killing.... Basically everything that "counters" any (effect)-minion. What Are you Even Talking about?

Silence is definitely a taunt counter but it is mostly inefficient in that you are usually burning two cards to deal with a taunt or even bypass it. There are "counters" to just about everything but I meant direct/specific counter plays. As I mentioned it would be costed additionally so it is less of an aggro tool as it is a slight change to the game and usual plays/counterplays. Having more options in that regard is not a bad thing IMO.

Leave taunt alone. LEAVE IT ALONE.

Are you asking how to make your face decks stronger?

TAUNT IS CHEAT PLEASE NERF

Yes, aggro decks really need a way to deal with taunt effectively, they've been struggling against it ever since the beginning of the beta.

Oh wait...

There are only a few aspects of HS with no direct counter and one of them is charge. Currently the only way to bypass charge is the 0% chance that the opponent misclicks with their minions/weapons and it can be very powerful. Minions and spells that would grant a "Slow" mechanism to bypass charge minions would be pretty strong but also balanced. It could be a +1 cost keyword but I could see it even being worth +2. A taunt minion with Slow would be not at all insane, and probably still underpowered compared to charge.

WTF ? ... Hearthstone is already the ONLY Card Game I know which you can bypass ALL minions and go face. In all other card games, you have to beat every single minion in the battlefield before going face at least you have a minion with flying ability. All tards players should be happy enough this mechanic is not in that game. So please no, go away with this stupid idea.

And after Leap we need Tall minions with Taunt.
