Everyone is hating this card, did you think about infested Tauren + master of evolutions? No? Right
Even if you evolve the slime is good
Why all the hate? 2-stars?
We must remember that most of the overpowered deathrattles are gone. I think this card will find it’s place in zoo type of decks, because it works well against board clears and we haven’t seen better replacement for this annoying deathrattles minions ( in my opinion) yet.
I think harvest golem wil take that spot since its cheaper with an almost just as strong deathrattle
Like the Infested Terran reference
this card is like one health off of being a card you put in almost in every deck.
This is no sludge belcher 2.0. The 2/2 slime has no taunt.
sludge non-belcher then?
Lil’ Exorcist proved that a 3 mana 2/3 Taunt with a (then) potentially large benefit wasn’t worth it (that is, even back in the days when Undertaker was terrorizing absolutely everything); that being said, a 4 mana 2/3 taunt even with a pretty good Deathrattle just doesn’t seem worth it.
That being said, in light of Shredder, I would much rather err on the side of caution with cards like this. Though maybe as a 3/3 Taunt or a 2/4 Taunt, it could be a bit more useful, or if the Slime was a 2/2 Taunt, or even a 2/3 that comes back as a 2/3 (sort of a mini-Cairne). It could then be a decent buffer against Face decks while being not much of anything in Control matches, which is a good place for a card like this, I think.
As it is, I feel like it’s 1 stat or a minor keyword off of being useful.
Hi sludge belcher!
Welcome Back
Gets the slime taunt ?
nope
New Deathlord?
far from new deathlord
this card is not good, but the idea is fun
It comes to 4/5, with some taunt and 2/2 can survive board wipes. It will see play.
Somehow I can’t see a 4 drop with a 2 drop’s stats getting used very much.
Ever here of my man Defender of Argus?
I think in Zoo were it is very important to have at least one minion on the board for Poweroverwhelming, Abusiv sargent, or Defender of Argus this card has a lot of potential
it wont see play since it might have 4/5 stats but a 4/5 minion could actually kill this one and still live
Mini Belcher aka Sludge Belcherino.
Sludge Belcherino Kripperino lol, btw the Slime summoned from the Deathrattle has no taunt.
