Does anybody else love the sound this card makes?

The people that think this card needs a nerf are adorable. Fastest way to spot rank 20 players.

This thing has always been weak, sadly. Boulderfist has one less attack for one less mana, while this thing sports no keywords. This could easily have been an 8/7 or a 7/8. Vastly outdone by todays standards and Dr. Boom kicked hin out of any deck back in the day too.

A solid basic card, but spell damage is much better on smaller minions to make room for spells. Can be helpful in arena, of course.

In constructed, it's far too weak unless you have two Radiant Elementals on board. In arena, this card is usually a much better pick than other rares and can offer some incredible value. Not great, but it isn't that bad at all.

Get your hearing checked.

Biggest thing going for him is that you can use the other two mana to Rockbiter or Flametongue. Other than that, the keyword king himself isn't much more than a novelty. I can understand them not wanting to print a reasonably powerful charge/windfury minion because that could be a disaster, but then again Shaman is notorious for their disgusting burst damage. Al'Akir is basically Diet Doomhammer.

This is one of those cards that was called weak before Un'Goro's release, and now it's one of the better two drops in Paladin. The thing is, this card is not bad or weak at all; it's actually quite strong. Paladin secrets can honestly tip the game in your favor if played at a crucial moment, and with the pool of Paladin secrets being rather shallow it means that you're getting either the exact secret you need or at least the second best. Not having to take up card slots for a secret while still being able to play them, alongside a reasonable body for the mana cost, is fantastic. Overall I think this is one of my favorite cards of the expansion. A properly statted Murloc that generates high value at a low cost is nothing to scoff at.

How, exactly?

The obvious thing to say is that this is some pretty cheap removal if you can discount it; three mana to destroy one minion is a lot stronger than cards like Assassinate. However, despite this card honestly being pretty good, Warriors already have enough pokes for small minions and hard removal like Execute. It's a shame that it never got to shine, it's a good card for what it's worth.

A total of nine damage for five mana is pretty solid. I still run this in Hunter; so efficient, and it isn't a card you feel the need to play around. Usually catches people by surprise.

Arguably the best one drop for any Murloc deck. If played alongside Tinyfin and Tidehunter, you pretty much demand your opponent to board clear or directly target the Tidecaller for removal. 

Also, that golden animation is actually one of the best in the game by far.

A pretty great card, you're almost guaranteed to get the card draw if you're running Goons. That being said, Fight Promoter can't save the gang from mediocrity.

This card is nothing short of frustrating. It adds another level of "top deck unpredictability" to Hunter that people already hate, since you can get something like a Highmane for 2 mana, or another burn spell. Coin flip cards are no fun, and getting King Krush'd on turn 4 is impossible to play around.

Not saying it's great, just saying that inconsistent cards that offer high power when they work aren't fun.
