Card Review & Interactions

Another bad card. 8 mana for a 7/7 is bad, that's a start. Giving +2 attack to your Elementals is a very specific kind of buff. Unless you have a full deck built around Elementals, it won't even affect your whole board. Even in a full deck, if you get some tokens (like Shaman Totems), they still aren't Elementals, so they won't be buffed.

To be honest, I'd probably put a Stormwind Champion into my deck before this, and just look at how many people are running Stormwind Champion in their decks.

It can be situationally useful to discover from e.g. Servant of Kalimos if you're looking for a finisher in your Elemental deck, but I can't honestly see anyone wanting this in their deck.

Card rating: 2/10

    Elementals are a bit to slow for this type of card, you're probably not gonna get much value. Second of all bad statted considering warleader is a 3/3 for 3 mana, tho i suppose that is an epic.

    If it had stealth, this card would be so much better.

      And broken

    Obvious comparison is Murloc Warleader. Understatted, costly, and Elementals don't flood the board like Murlocs do. So yeah... pretty underwhelming win-more card. 2/5 stars.

    I agree it's pretty bad as is. For funsies tho, anyone got ideas on how to summon this out for free?

    1. Maelstrom

      Silver Vanguard?

    Could the art on this card be a reference to Magnokor of the CLASSIC 80's cartoon Inhumanoids?!?

  6. Smaragdptor

    It's probably meant as a Kalimos: Earth follow-up. Checks out with the mana cost. If that is good enough to make it a playable card? I doubt it. Oh well.

    Properly just play 1 Card of This, Due to how Niche it is.

    However with that said, Maybe Elemental Mage might Pick it up; Especially for the Synergy of Frost Lich Jaina.

  8. Slaxer

    7/7 is can be seen if it is 5 mana. So its text is for 3 mana. It could be good if it was for all minions like a small bloodlust. But its not so I don't think its gonna see any play.

    1. CD001

      In something like Elemental Shaman (where you'd have the Bloodlust option) almost all of your minions are going to be Elementals anyway... but having said that, Kalimos is a better 8-drop.
