"The End is COMING!!!"
4 attack minion ? NANI !
PogChamp anti Quest mage card
How is that anti Quest Mage?
No it's not, it just like hungry dragon but maybe better
It doesn't pull minions out of your opponent's deck, it just summons random 2 drops.
But it doesn't pull from their deck, it summon's a random minion. So even if it summon's a Sorcerer's Apprentice they still have the two in their Quest Mage deck.
If it said "Put a 2-Cost minion from your opponent's deck or hand into the battlefield" then yes, this could potentially counter Quest Mage by removing their two Apprentices before they are ready to pull off the combo.
Nope. If it's quest mage with free fire balls that I love to play, it won't change anything :)
But indeed, if it's the version with the giant, it can be a pain.
TIL what an "Ettin" is. For the mildly interested:
Ettins are two-headed giants who tower over normal humans. These creatures were the necromancers' first attempt at creating the feared abominations, but they proved too stupid and dangerous to be used even as shock troops for the Lich King's soldiers. Some of them escaped annihilation and have created a few villages. Their mud-and-dung hovels clump together against ravines and in other barren places, and ettins spend their time trying to figure out the nature of fire. Because it seems so difficult, they often prefer to eat their orcraw.
Ettins live in the mountains and valleys of Azeroth, preferring to keep far from civilization. In order to do so, they often inhabit the most desolate and barren territories -- literally, the land no one else wants. Still, ettins make their living not only from hunting but also from primitive agrarian efforts.

The art is.... disturbing
What do you mean? You no eat Kobold?! lol
Actually not bad at all.
Good for a Hadranox resummon, and a good 6-drop for taunt warrior.
Not going to break anything, but it'll see play.
This card is balanced, balanced cards don't see constructed play.
I am not even sure a 4/10 taunt for 6 would see constructed play.. since a 4/7 taunt for 5 Nesting Roc doesn't see much play although being 1 mana cheaper and the effect is easy to activate (you normally want taunt to protect other minions)
for one more mana you get ancient of war in druid and that card doesn't currently see play in popular druid builds although druid not having a problem if it's 7 mana or 6 due to ramp. (ancient of war is a good card though, just doesn't fit jade druid or big druid game plan)
this card on average is a 4/8 taunt for 6 which should cost 5.5 mana (primodial drake is played mostly cause of the aoe and the tribal synergy)
basically it is compared badly to roc and ancient of war which are taunts that don't see play although being better than this card.
Edit: this card might be good if you got a way to recruit it, since in value a 4/10 taunt costs 7 mana if it has no drawback, yet would still run drake if it's a random recruit (like warrior) and not a 6 mana recruit, since drake is better.
In arena this card is alright, above average probably.. RNG might screw you up hard..
In depth and very thoughtful review.
Good for arena, wont see play in constructed
