Ooh, yes, you are right. That IS an important distinction, especially in a class that doesn’t have many inherent board clears. Yes, that DOES make this card a lot more useful. Thanks for pointing that out.

Mm… just thinking this through…

– Iron Hide gives you 5 armor for 1-mana.
– Dinomancy buffs your critter for 2-mana.

So far, this is a bust being 3-mana behind. The interesting feature that there isn’t a card that replicates is the Discover element with (to a certain degree) an adapt built in. The Paladin quest reward almost does this, but more so than this, and no one plays it. Since whatever you create is a beast then you get built-in synergies (for what it’s worth). Dunno, but I agree that this fellow seems weak at first blush.

Are the options 5 or less mana, or does the second pick depend on what you choose as your first pick? (If I pick a 2-drop could I end up with 8-drop options for my second pick?)

Interesting. The Death Knight in WoW was an actual class unto itself. I’m assuming from the art and what’s been said that each hero death knight will be different, likely retaining their class. Very interested to see how this pans out. Loved the Lich King expansion in WoW.

What happens if you complete the Warrior Quest and play the hammer, turn yourself into Rag, or put Rag into play (either norm or light form)? Any interesting interactions?

Umm… they DO.

These are lots of fun. Thanks for sharing!

Eye for an Eye is also great against quest rogue. You can generally burn them down to < 5 before they burst. You just have to hope they don't attack with their dagger first.

So… PC, XBox One, and PlayStation only?

Fair enough; I haven’t played other digital CCGs so I can’t compare. I’ve played LOADS of CCGs with physical cards, however, and in comparison this model is GREAT! Just a different perspective.

With this feature being added, I’m hopeful they’ll open up more deck spaces and a way to organize so you can have several deck recipes saved at a time.

I’ve won several times with Rafaam. It is very doable. Keep trying.

Good question. I’d think it would be a good one to give away when promoting brawls, or maybe a specific brawl. Dunno, but I expect it is thematic. I’m assuming they’ll explain when it drops.

This card would be great in a Druid Quest deck.

I don’t understand this comment. How is one free booster better than a guaranteed Epic? And how is it that Blizzard isn’t generous enough in that they just gave away three free boosters to people just for logging in plus all of the other stuff leading up to the latest set?

I thought Medivh was being played in Priest by Kibler leveraging Free From Amber. I don’t know much more than that, but I think it’s a viable card.

Yeah, OK. You are right that Blizzard seems committed to making this work as the primary focus of Paladin decks. They’ve been promoting it for a long time, but it just hasn’t worked as a dedicated strategy. I think The Mistcaller would have made a much better Paladin card for this very reason, although the Goons cards still weren’t strong enough to make the strategy work, and those were one-to-many buffs. Dunno if I’d keep poor legendaries on the off chance they make this strategy viable in the future, but then, I try not to dust legendaries (garbage or no) unless I really need the dust in any case.

I noticed that Warlock also starts with three crystals.

I agree, but he did state at the top, “the list was created having the competitive gaming in mind – some of those Legendaries are perectly fine if you’re a new player with small collection or you’re playing off-meta decks for fun”. I think your use falls squarely in the “fun” category. I keep many of my legendaries for the same reason (I play Cho in a Paladin Murloc that runs almost zero spells; it isn’t competitive but it is entertaining) and I’m happy to find uses for some in the Wild.

Agree, although I rarely dust epics unless they are golden as they just aren’t worth much dust.
