6 attack also means he's out of BGH range, which is pretty decent. But still looks too expensive, though druid with innervates can do a lot of fun stuff.

Even against zoo ? Ironbark is like "fuck, how do I get through THAT"
Exactly. Ironbark Protector isn't as good as other options but I would rather run one over Foe Reaper. Big taunts have an immediate board presence and have to be dealt with or worked around. They prevent Zoo or face hunter from running 10 damage into your face. Foe Reaper, by itself, does not.

I'd wait to evaluate him too much - sure with a delay he sucks - but with something as simple as a lets say a 0/2 for 2 "Power Station" that gives all Mechs Charge we could be talking about a completely different card. Only about half the set is spoiled so far.

(And yes, I realize two cards isn't ideal - but 2 cards trading for 3 is a good start especially if you can continue to follow it up with more attacks)

I wonder if we will see something like:

Goblin Saboteur
3 mana, 2 attack, 2 health, battlecry: Destroy target mech

I don't play enough to have these types of mechanics memorized. But wouldn't that give you a ZZZZ minion your turn and a rested minion on the next turn for the opponent?

Yeah, it would.

I can imagine scenarios where that card isn't bad actually. Imagine getting a Rag from your opponent. You Hex it, the Rag didn't get his 8 damage shot off. If you also get a value card out, like your own Rag/KT/Ysera, that is a huge advantage. If you have an answer in your hand or on board no matter what card your opponent gets and you have a really expensive minion in your hand, it'll be a nice tempo gain for you. That said Shaman is already a fairly weak, not often played class and I don't think they have the cards to support the kind of deck that could justify running that card.

Also so close to all level 60. Half a level to go in Rogue and Hunter.

Well, I guess for laughs I can make an all Legendary Shaman deck now... that card seems really bad though.

Really pisses me off that it will be at least two months before Blizzard finally pulls their heads out of their asses and nerfs Undertaker. I think we all know that nothing in GvG is going to unseat Undertaker as the premier broken card of the game, and if anything it will only get worse, because we've already seen one deathrattle mech.

You know, since it pulls a minion from hand, this card really isnt too bad. You can control what comes out of your hand to an extent. 4 mana legendary/earth elemental ? yes please.

But if you're playing against another control deck, you have a solid chance of getting a legendary on the field on their side too. Maybe against control war you can force him to "discard" shit like taskmaster, but meh. 4mana is fucking expensive considering the major drawback. Obviously too low mana and it becomes too good since as you said, you can kinda control what it puts in play.
