    Hmmm. Could see Handlock having a ball with this in Wild.

    Turn 4: Mountain Giant
    turn 5: This and 16 damage face.

    Oh cool double conviction + this is 24 damage on turn 7. I was just thinking conviction wasnt busted enough ya know.

    1. kapslocke

      Oof I even forgot about conviction. Leave 2 silverhand recruits alive against paladin on turn 5 and you take 16 to the face. Absolutely bonkers.

    Beyond busted.

    Neutral Bloodlust on a stick that is potentially way better than Bloodlust if you HAVE to play for board since this is a "permanent" effect and not many aggro mirrors can clear a 5/5 with nothing on board.

    1. TallJake26

      Bloodlust, though its effect was pretty powerful, was extremely situational and required too many things to go right before it could be utilized to its full effect.

      Though this comes with an extra 5/5 body along with the bloodlust, that still doesn't change the fact that this card is not very versatile since the only situation where this card can shine is when your opponent doesn't have a taunt up, and you have a sizeable minion(or two) that can go face.

      Asides from that specific situation though, this card has no immediate impact on board and won't help much if you're behind on board.

    This card is insane!

  6. TallJake26

    This card definitely looks insane, but in some ways it might just be another Scabbs Cutterbutter-kind of card that never sees play again after the initial hype train.

    This card is a 5 mana do nothing, and only serves any purpose if you have surviving minions from last round. It's a essentially a win-harder type of card, where you get to push extra damage to your opponent, but ONLY if you already have damage to push in the first place.

    I'll have to call this a 2/5. It's not a great standalone card, which is often indicative of whether the card will see play or not. However, there might be a couple meme decks out there that could utilize this card - particularly Handlock, which could summon a big demon on T4 and then double the demon's face damage the next turn with this card if the demon is not removed. You also might be obliged to include a one-of of this card in your deck.

    This card is insane. You no longer can afford to leave a minion alive against aggro. And I don't even want to imagine how broken it can be in wild.

    Fungalmacer was much worse than this and played like hell...

    Eeeeeehh... I mean this is fine, but realistically, I think battlegroudns Battlemaster is just a force soft taunt. And the only good thing about this card is if you are able to protect Battlegrounds Battlemaster yourself. If you do so effectly and successfully, you just automatically win. Period.I think Paladin and Warrior can try out Windfury for now, and maybe other classes can adept to that idea.

    2 stars for now.
