Poor Emeriss rotating out before this rotates in.
This looks like some badass pokemon. SO much beast tag potential here, gonna be bonkers. Also, prime auto completes sidequests so thats actually 5 4/4 rushes if it's in play xD
Has combo potential, considering if this is the only beast in your deck you can guaranteed draw it with Scavenger's Ingenuity. Aside from that...nah. Scion of Ruin with more stats for 4 more mana plus you have to draw it after you play the first one isn't good enough.
It's summon 3 copies, not 2. That means 8 mana 16/16 Rush if you don't buff it at all.
So couple of things.
1) Scion of Ruin has considerably lower stats. This card has double Scion's health and summons a fourth body.
2) Scion of Ruin requires a really specific deck. You need all the invoke cards and Galakrond. This requires one card.
3) This is a beast, and that has a lot of synergy with a lot of hunter cards.
4) The first body is kind of a benefit. The first stage is better in the early game when you need it (and it's a really good 3 drop anyway), and you'll only draw the 8 drop later when your deck is thinner.
5) ...Hunters can't actually run Scion of Ruin, so the comparison is kinda pointless.
I love how he says Zixor a lot. Why asians are so good at spell card names
Theres enough combo potential to justify experimentation
Also for 1 more mana, you actually get 5 x 4/4s if you play the sidequests first.
Turn 8 Play for hunter... i love the design, but the class will not support this. Nice for fun decks...
Highlander hunter...
Hard to get all those pieces in Order, but a 4 x 7-7 by itself on Turn 8 wins you the game in many times, then imagine a Dragonqueen and Dinotamer Brann the turns before / after and its LIGHTS OUT.
Draw the Prime with Scavenger's Ingenuity
Discount the Rhino with Scarlet Webweaver
SMORC for 30
Pretty good with Ramkahen Wildtamer.
Apex Predator / Prime ... those are some really really powerful names, I love it! Graphic fits to that as well!
OK, so this is actually one of the strongest, if not BEST Prime legendarys besides the Mage and Warrior ones, as you can perfectly make your deck so this is the only beast (besides maybe Tundra Rhino) then use Scavenger's Ingenuity, and spread serious havoc over ladder. Also combined with Teron Gorefiend, for even more mayhem !
Hunter is up for a great start ONCE AGAIN, and I can't help but chuckle, might be my first Day golden craft as a Hunter Main.
in wild : emmeris + tundra rhino + scarlet webweaver
In standard: Zixor Prime + Scavenger's Ingenuity + Tundra Rhino + Scarlet Webweaver = 30 charge damage (four 7/7 Zixors and a 2/5 Rhino). It's 8-mana cheaper than your combo and doesn't rely on drawing Emmeris.
.
And almost no one bats an eye that the Hunter's Prime is less than 5 mana, and that this is automatically going to be added to the pool of Zombeasts for Deathstalker Rexxar.
It won't, beasts with both text and keywords are not it Rexxar's pool
