    If you’re a thief Rouge, this is basically a 1 mana Assassinate. Otherwise, it’s not that great.

    Use Prize Plunderer along with VanCleef in your deck.

    4 Stars.

    Rogue doesn’t need more minion removal when they have backstab, brain freeze, and Coerce so this straight up isn’t seeing play.

    If a 1 mana deal 4-6 to a minion saw no play in Hunter who needed the removal, I don’t see this card seeing remotely any play in a class with plenty of removal AND this is at most doing 3-4. Also, a 2/1 extra body on turn 6 or whatever isn’t worth incorporating into the equation.

    Not terrible, but due to it only being able to hit minions it wont make the cut.

    You need to take out 1x O & T and put in one S

    Deal x damage to minion doesn’t really help when Coerce is here with only 3 mana.
    But I might be wrong. It can be a decent damager early, play 1 or 2 cards to kill that one little creeps on the way and leave a 2/1 body.

    all in all, still better Battlecry than Wartbringer in Shaman Cards.

    Ah, yes, the first Rogue card! Time for reviews.

    Well, this looks rather good. The body is unimpressive but the card effect makes up for it, especially since you typically won’t play it for the body with such a statline. A combo card with 1 Mana is pretty much as easy of a Combo as you can get, so that’s easy enough to activate. Even dealing as little as 1 damage with this card makes it a slightly better Elven Archer – but only by a really small margin, since +1 Attack on a pingable body should not make any difference.

    Realistically for this card to be decent you’d want to play two cards before you play it, making it a cheaper SI:7 Agent which is a renowned Rogue Card. Even in the early game, it is not impossible for Rogue to find those two cheap cards to get that combo, Praise Galakrond’s, Lackey and this is 3 mana for instance.

    The main problem I find with this card is that, while being an excellent card overall – has great potential impact on the game for a 1 mana card -, you just can’t play it as a T1. 1 mana 2/1 is just awful, so you’ll never play that on your first turn unless you have a very aggro gameplan.

    Overall I think it’s a good card, and it does have a lot of potential, especially if Rogue gets some sort of cheap card support this expansion. I give it 4/5. Let’s not forget that the Pirate Tag could also be relevant, who knows? Overall, it’s a good tempo card. Can also be used as a decent removal option in a big “Edwin Vancleef turn”.

    If Rogue gets some sort of cheap spell or card generation support, or even Pirate support perhaps, this card will likely see play! Also, I like the art.
