If it had taunt maybe it would be viable in spell-heavy combo decks. But this thing just sits on the board while your opponent laughs at you and kills you with murlocs/pirates/druid tokens.
I don't see much saving this card really. Unless other (more exciting) new cards open up possibilities for this, there are way better ways to pop eggs, and even in a spell heavy deck 4 mana 5/6 won't make the cut even if the downside doesn't really matter.
Some people are saying you could give this lifesteal and that it might work that way, but even if you can and the deathrattle does heal you, there are STILL some problems. Having this on a deathrattle makes it incredibly inconsistent, not to mention you are STILL nuking your board, which makes the healing much worse since you will likely have no board presence afterward.
It would take a very specific set of circumstances to make this card good, something I don't really think can work in constructed. But watch out for this in arena, interesting card there
I really don't think this has high enough stats to see play in Silence Priest. Did Emerald Hive Queen or Fel Orc Soulfiend work out in Silence Priest? Not really. They could use cards like Eerie Statue, not this Abomination of a card.
There's more than 120 cards to come. Maybe there will be something to combo with this.
:D No. This is probably a packfiller card.
I wish this cost 1 more and dealt damage to every minion, because that would make it a perfect anti-aggro nuke.
Hey guys we got our Necroknight!
You are right! They said he was planned to be released as a collectible minion in naxxramas.
And so finally, after all that time waiting, naxx will be definitely out :)
Really want to see some crazy new deathrattles that this might synergize with. With the whole theme being Death Knights and already said to be heavy with deathrattles I bet we'll see more use of this card than expected
maybe a good Arena Card
this is playable in egg decks, imo, pretty terrible anywhere else. would need support in the expansion to be worth it
It won't see any play in constructed, but it might be at least descent in arena
