Well, I definitely think this could be useful with Spreading Plague, but I'm not sure the situation would come up that often. But then again, we've always got token druid, and that could be some serious cancer, if you can't even get past their taunt to deal with their board.

I generally think that's a bad card overall..I can see only play this against aggro decks and if you can use buffs in it.Otherwise there are better options out there..It's not even a beast so you can combo it with druid cards...Below average card imo..
In a token druid i can see this card as a alternative mid game finisher. If you can put few small minions to keep it at high health, then use cards like Kooky Chemist to set up good trades or simply go face for 6 maybe 7 or 8 damage. This card actually has potential.
Could someone explain me what do crypt lords have to do with druids?

I don't think they should be in any class really
DK class, remember?
Could be used in Aggro druid. Aggro druid summons minions very fast and can buff it into a 2-attack or even 3-attack minion.
1/6 is too weak for Control decks. 3 mana 3/5 is more stable.
Please note that it gains health, rather than attack.
Everyone a post up flipping out about the Shaman Death Knight, but I think this will be way more impactful. This card is busted, and I think that's a good thing. This card alone is enough to drive aggro down to a reasonable rate in the meta. Unless Druid becomes the new aggro because of this card. It protects low health minions. Control decks won't want to waste removal on a 1-attack minion, but that means this grows turn after turn. This card could drive Druid into top tier Arena.
So Druid is the answer to Control and Aggro now?
Right, this is a great card, but definitely not in the class that needed it right now. Druid is already amazing against Control with Jade - the only deck in HS that I ever legitimately despised. Now they get an amazing anti-aggro card as well.
But we'll see. Not all cards are released yet.
nice, right?
Jades ftw! so much fun so much skill i can even w8!!!!!!
I don't know about 1 attack... If it was 2/5 it would have been a lot better. But then it would probably be too good. I doubt it will see play in Token Druid.
I don't know Russian, but at 1:23 in the reveal video is an awesome and hilarious discussion of pirate warrior that is clearly understandable.
Pirates are the same everywhere))
is this better then Tar Creeper? I don't think so.
Not better, no, but it isn't like they were mutually exclusive ; token druid shall put them both to good use ..!^^
This card is very good in a slower token druid build it basically will need hard removal
... not to be this guy but, I don't think he never left his place ... no one invited him in since beta's days ...
Such a tragic time for gorillas ... but on the bride side, lets never forget :
