So a 8 mana 5/9 taunt with battlecry deal 8 dmg to minion, or alternatively destroy a minion? It does get blocked by taunt, that's one thing, but still you're just paying just over 1 mana for the actual rush portion of the deal, since the 5/9 taunt in itself is worth over 6 mana, close to 7. It's got just 1 lower health than Ancient of War and that at least used to be a good 7 mana minion.
Better than a lot of 8 mana legendaries.
N'Zoth, the Corruptor gets even stronger
Count again
Wow. This is going to be great in control demon hunter.
wtf
This should be an epic/legendary neutral card named Naj'entus.
Furrious Ettin was a strong card in arena it was a 5/7 taunt for 7 this is 5/9 taunt for 8 that comes with bassically a removal card , so it's about 13/15 mana for 8 mana.
math is hard
Assasinate is 5 mana. The taunt body is worth let's say 7 and a half mana. So at the very least this card is 12.5. But the card can kill and survive , unlikely sure but possible that would make it behind ridiculous. The fact that u get both this in one card doubles as card draw so even in a very optimistic case u are looking at around 13 and a half mana.
5/9 taunt was maybe worth 7 mana when ancient or war actually saw play. Today it’s worth closer to 5 mana and still probably wouldn’t see play.
9/5 rush is in some ways worse (Other ways better) than assassinate which doesn’t see play at 5 Mana.
8 is fair because bigger cards need more to compensate for inflexibility and low tempo. Ie: 2 mana 3/3 would be reasonable but a 4 mana 3/3 with death rattle summon a 3/3 would be trash tier.
So if we cut this card in half , i'll give u the lesser half it would be a 4/2 rush that summons 2/4 taunt. There was 2/4 taunt for 3 in the past, not meta but it was playable. A 4/2 rush is druid of the scythe wich is another 3 mana card wich saw play in meta druid descks. Lets say -0.5 mana sience there are some class taunts witch 3/4 for 3. You also have to consider the fact that playing both this cards in one doubles as a card draw. So even when u cut this into half ,and I gave u the lesser half this card is still 6.5 mana not even close to 4
Let's try a different comparison then.
Firelands Portal was 7 mana deal 5 summon on average a 5/5. It was played in basically every mage deck.
This card is 8 mana deal 9 summon a 5/9 at worst. So assuming Firelands Portal was in fact worth 7, that would make this a 9-10 mana card at worst. And if it survives, that means your opponent has to burn another minion or removal on it, adding another 2-3 mana of value.
As for your dumb comment on a 4 mana 3/3 deathrattle summon a 3/3 is trash, seriously? Restless Mummy exists and is meta and is literally a 3/2 with deathrattle summon a 3/1
Restless Mummy is a very strong card , this card is better than restlesss sience the deathrattle has taunt. Firelands was also one of the most complained about cards when it came out , and this cards for +1 mana puts it to absolute shame.
You can't count the attacks together like that. First it has 9 attack, then it has 5 attack. That doesn't mean you can just think of it as a 14 attack minion, it doesn't work the same way health does. It averages as a 7 attack minion. For example, you can think of a 7/7 deathrattle summon 7/7 as a 7/14 minion, not a 14/14 minion.
Many people make this mistake.
Derrr you think restless mummy having rush may have something to do with being meta?
this does compare favourably with firelands portal and if printed a year ago would be OP. Last few expansions have seen major power creep though. Firelands portal would likely not see play at 7 mana these days.
the ultimate test wrt whether this is “OP” is whether it sees play in every competitive demon hunter deck. My money is that it does not. It’s good enough to see competitive play in control decks but doesn’t push the boundaries so much that it’s an auto include.
I DONT GET THE BALANCING WTF IS GOING ON!!!????
Rush meta they say
This card is better than the new priest legendary XD
it's better than all paladin cards from all last year
