Superior to the Imp Master in my opinion. [5/10] Are you sure you understood the card text? | ||

Yeah, well...if you can guarantee you are only going to play games against aggro, then it is great. | ||

Death Lord is like the Black Knight or Harrison Jones. Its a meta choice--it hardcounters specific deck archetypes incredibly well, but is otherwise really lousy value. Just like if you'd run Black Knight if you face a lot of taunt druid and handlock or Harrison if you're seeing a lot of weapons, Death Lord is strictly a choice for when you're running into tons of aggro and zoo. Because while it is insanely good in those matchups, it is truly awful against most other archetypes. Against a Giant deck, for example, it simply dies having done nothing, then gives your opponent a free card. Basically it gives all those players who bitch and moan "all I'm seeing on ladder is aggro and zoo, this sucks" a clear choice: put this card in your deck, and never worry about aggro and zoo again. But it also comes with a clear tradeoff, because its mediocre against midrange and downright awful against control. | ||

If it happened every turn, then any damage dealt to one ooze would also hurt the other. As it is, this effectively doubles any buff card you combo it with. Two 5/6's for 6 mana when paired with blessing of kings, for example, is outstanding value. | ||

Fact is it still requires "help" and is not good on it's own. Could be strong in arena, even a 1/1 buff makes it useful, but as an epic it could have stiff competition. | ||

I think Loatheb and Spectral Knight are going to provide some real competition for inclusion. Both of them have great stats for cost and really useful effects. | ||

Erm... no it doesn't. This work amazing with buff cards. Turn 3 you can have double 3/4 taunt as druid (you can have that turn 1 with innervate), turn 6 you can have double 5/6 as paladin. Its a combo-y card but it can work wonders in some decks. | ||

I expect to see the classes with good permabuff cards (pally, druid, priest) playing around with Echoing Ooze and Stoneskin Gargoyle plus lots of buffs, because both of those cards give outstanding value paired with buffs. | ||

Sludge Belcher is Senjin + Footman all in one with a slower tempo, but sinergizes with Undertaker and Baron Riverdare, and its worse against silence | ||

Sludge Beltcher seems better for zoo/aggro. Tazdingo stats and summons another taunt to deal with. With Feral Spirit and Sludge Beltcher Shaman will basically be immune to aggro. | ||

I wonder does "summon Thaddius" mean he goes in your hand or straight on the board? Seems weird that Deathlord is very specific about how the summoned card "goes on the battle field" yet here it just says "summon" Thaddius. I guess other deathrattles say summon, but the consistency seems a little off. | ||
