    Holy god, what a unit. Pit commander into this would be ridiculously backbreaking. I hope big DH is a thing this expansion

  2. CountrClockwrk

    Barnes into this is insane against swarm aggro decks. Maybe a big demon DH may like this if it comes down early. Otherwise its really bad if played on turn 10.

    Why couldnt this be in Warlock? It would be so cool with Willow!

    For Demon Hunter, I could imagine this in a big Demon deck with Pit Commander pulling it out, but that archetype might need more support to work.
    Currently, this is a high cost card with a, due to it's hindering cost, mediocre effect in a class that struggles to control itself into the lategame. So unfortunatly, 3 Stars.
    But I like the design of the card! (Like almost all of the terrible DH cards in this expansion. Seriously: why couldnt this package be the OP release stuff and the boring cards be saved for later and already nerfed on their release? Would've made Demon Hunter Meta a lot more fun!)

      Are you sure DH struggles as a control deck now? It gets soul fragments and two 3 damage Aoe things and it already had quite a few control tools just not enough to make anything out of it. I would argue that DH has as much if not more control stuff than most classes. Not to mention big threat cards to go with it all. Compared to something like big Paladin, DH is way more well suited for it now which is pretty sad considering how many times they've pushed it for Paladin.

        Never really thought about it working... I didnt really care for DH so far since I really hate Tempo Demon Hunter. But the more I think about it...AoE? Check. Taunt? Check Heal? Check.
        If Demon Hunter manages to heal faster than they take damage (and they take a lot of damage due to their hero power and weapons!), it could work. Would be super cool to see cards like this or Wrathspike Brute in the Meta!

    ...
    The F*** is this?
    ...
    I want it. I want two.

  5. Enemy

    If you get it as a random 9 mana minion, its gonna be cool.

  6. Ecajnoxid

    I don't care if it's good. I want it.

  7. DustDodo

    Big chonky boy for Big Demon Hunter. That was like a tier 3 deck, and this seems like a natural fit. Possibly pushing it to Tier 2? Really cool effect regardless.

  8. Thraben

    This ability would be a neat idea with a lower cost minion but as a big slow 9 drop it loses quite alot of its use and charm. Naturally this can be cheated out and it's what DH needs for the big deck. Nice to see DH getting lots of control tools and big things rather than "yeet yeet hit face I'm so good" schenanigans.

    3-4 stars I really hope big DH is a thing at some point.

  9. Wibbiz

    Wow what a monster to get off of a random effect!

  10. Regarion

    This card is just straight up rad. Artwork, stats, effect... I hope Big DH can become a viable archetype. If not, I can’t see this being in any other decks, which is a shame. I’ll give it 3 stars... but one of those is just from it being so cool.

  11. Umbreomancer

    If Big Demon Hunter is viable then, and only then, will I deign to play this class. Enough of this whole "going face" thing, I want to play with L A R G E B O I S

  12. TallJake26

    Sadly the steal 1 attack and health effect would be kinda irrelevant most of the time. When this gets pulled out by a Pit Commander at the end of your turn the effect won't activate.

  13. Hit5

    I want this for warlock. Demon hunter gets so cool big demons like this , pit commander and the 5/10 rush guy etc. Warlock has prime and the new legendary but no cool big demons. I had really hope for the dual class cards for dh and warlock...

    1. WingedCastaway

      I couldn't agree more. I'm a WARLOCK goddamn it! Let me summon big fiery demons. In the current meta Warlocks have quite good synergies to make Demons work, but they have NO demons!

  14. TheDarksider

    Another DEMON minion that DEMON hunter will never play

  15. Kuskie

    Sorry huh?

  16. Maemmo

    I'll play Sunfury protector and Raging Felscreamer just to force this to be good. It's too cool.

  17. Lluadian

    I'm just going to point out that this card is technically a deal 1 dmg to all enemy minions at end of your turn similar to warlock minion. However it gains that health but also steals attack as well with high base stats for only a few more Mana.

    You have a few ways to cheat this onto the board without paying the full 9 Mana if you ran a demon deck.

    Overall it's a nice card with an interesting ability.

  18. EksSkellybur

    This is a really cool Card; making it it's own Void Terror.

    The Obvious problem is the cost. Only Big Demon Demon Hunters can really use it.

    I think Blizzard tried to make it cheaper and it spiked out of control in terms of power, so I they had to balance and pre nerf is accordingly.

    Regardless is still fine, but only if you can cheat it out.

    3 Stars. Very Experimental.

  19. ConcreteKnight

    Too slow and too small of an effect for 9 mana

  20. Tuscarora87

    This big boi can be cheated with 8/3 guy and new 1/4 weapon.
