    It’s kind of like Release the Hounds, but lower-ceiling, cheaper, and more flexible. It’s kind of a 2/2 with Rush for 2, but you can split up the damage, play them on different turns, etc. I also like that it can be used to basically amplify Candleshot

    This seems like a great fit with Revenge of the Wild… I can see some kind of deck with Revenge, this, deathrattle minions, Release the Hounds, maybe Scavenging Hyena and/or Cybertech Chip?

    This is actually a really solid hunter 1 drop. Good synergy with Toxmonger (give poisonous to your 1 drop in case people forgot)

    Good synergy with Hunter Quest, this is gonna be the last push at getting the deck to work now anyways. And this helps push it

    Really good with Build-a-beast even if you don’t run it in ur deck

    And also has some synergy with OG beast cards like scavenging hyena (turn 4, you can play a 6-4 hyena by trading them into minions with rush + get it even bigger with other beasts u have on board still in the first few turns, may be good in a aggressive hunter beast decks) Lets be real tho Prince Kel is prob still pro better.

    This is pretty awesome card. This being a beast with rush would be an awesome addition for DK hunter hero power.

    I’ll go with the “you need both to kill 1 Firefly” line. 1.5/5 in constructed.

    This can be seen as an Alleycat or Firefly with rush. It’s flexible, but far from the best one drop card Hunter will have access to.

    I think this card is really interesting.
    First of all, the obvious interaction with the tox monger in quest Hunter. Pretty nuts honestly, is this the expansion where the shitty quest go wild??
    Second of all, because we don’t know if other quest Hunter cards will be printed, is this card gonna see play outside of quest Hunter? I don’t really think so. People underestimate how worse this is in confront of fire fly (that is not even a common choice in hunter). Rush on a 1/1 is just bad (skaterbot….) and 1 health is far superior as an effect. There is not much to say apart from this. The hype is real for the quest Hunter, but not much about anything else.

    3.5/5. Good card for Quest Hunter, albeit pretty late. Rush is bad since Shaw already gives minions rush, and you’re going to have him around a lot, so losing stats on your minions for an effect even your 2 mana 2/3’s have is bad.

    It’s perfect for Hunter Quest…except that’s got to Wild with the next set.

    People underestimated firefly and this card is a lot like firefly. 1 less health for rush AND the beast tag. I’m going to boldly say 5/5

      Razorpetal Volley without spell damage and the prepay. It’s better than it looks. Probably not full marks, depends on what it can trade for.

    Skaterbot didn’t see play… Doubt this will either

      This is far, far better than Skaterbot. Will absolutely see play.

            Springpaw didn’t see play at realease… it wasn’t until after the first set of nerfs in December that it became good.

    The best birthday present [Card_link name=”Toxmonger”] could have asked for.

    It’s no alley cat.

    2.5/5
