    any reason why this isn't just a neutral card?

     

    Paladin is really getting the shaft again.

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    Not good off of Commencement or Duel! or just straight up playing it. There is no reason to run this as the 4 attack lifesteal is minimal impact on 6 mana without it having rush or taunt.

    For glory, honor, and gold!

    Not very impressive, especially when so many other options for healing are available to both classes.

    This post is discussing the wild format.

    I could see this being run in Big Paladin as a half-way point.  It helps stem some damage from aggro and is well statted for a Lifesteal minion, but its just kind of boring in a set filled with interesting and exciting cards.

    I mean, it's okay. Generally, having slightly above average stats stops being a reason to play a card after about 3-4 mana. This is just too slow, there isn't much else to say.

    Decent stats for it's cost, but it never feels good playing this for it's actual mana cost. You probably get this tutored from Duel! or Commencement. I have low hope in this card, and this archetype.

    Why did paladin get the shaft AGAIN. It's been bad ever since they early rotated out Baku the Mooneater. (Debatably, it was carried by this card, BUT before then paladin was already pretty bad if you ask me.)

    RNG is only fun as long as there is a 50/50 chance of getting something really good or trash level of bad. If RNG always results in something good, then it's not fun.

    Pack-filler/ Arena Card.  Even in handbuff decks, there are better options.  I can't imagine a deck that will ever use this in constructed.  It feels like one of those cards like Dr. Boom's Scheme where they wanted to do something interesting but ran out of time.

    Which both classes ? Paladin and Paladin ? :D

    I will get so much hate for this comment probably but; The card's image feels like it is made for people who will cry "Why isn't there any black people in this expansion ?"

    Lifesteal is important, but this does not seem like a good card overall.
    Best thing about this is that it will probably be alive next turn since it will be ignored and you can buff it then.

    It's actually pretty good in Arena. 4/9 for 6 is pretty good stats and the Lifesteal could occasionally be a life saver (or trigger some healing related abilities).

    In Constructed though, it's a perfectly fair card, but 95% of the time, "perfectly fair" cards don't see play.

    Of all the artwork seen, this has got to be the most dull. Can't you make her look any less like someone being offered mineral water at a pool party? I shudder to think the reason why team5 went with this art instead of picking some other pose.

    Aside from that, this card is just useless. Yes there's a massive tag 'lifesteal' on it, but its a paladin card, and paladins don't lack healing options. Hell, even Amber Watcher is a better card if only because its just on time with its healing. Play this, then die to aggro, because this doesn't have taunt even.

    Potentially a game winner against priest, but even then I prefer Onyx Magescribe to do the same thing, and more.

    Stats's good, but nothing else, right. This have to be cheated out, and then even i not sure if it's worth to slot on those deck.

    I guess it is ok for Duel Paladin or good to be cheated out of the Deck by Commencement i guess.

    Stand alone it is ok but not that good.

    A lot of stats, but is there any point of playing this one at all? Maybe in Arena.

    Lot of stats for 6 mana, and Lifesteal to boot. Might be good?

    Don't think this'll see much Play in Constructed.

    But maybe it's a Premium Card in Arena? 13 Stats for 6, mostly Health, is pretty good Board Presence.

    This isn't a bad card, but I'm afraid it will be overshadowed by other more exciting offerings.

    Great lifesteal minion, but it doesn't have taunt so if the aggro deck can kill you that turn, they will.

    No strong feelings on this one. It's a good body that really needs spell buffs to be anything to contend with.

    Nice cost for the health it has, the lifesteal also means that trading into it will only help the paladin

    Good stats for cost, very strong in the arena.

    In standard this minion has good synergy with Duel! and Commencement, which essentially recruits the minion from your deck and either attacks an enemy minion, or gives this minion taunt and divine shield to go with her already sturdy health pool and life steal

    Playing it on it's own doesn't seem very strong, however, she doesn't impact the board once played.

    Her high health pool does make her an easy target to apply buffs on, such as Blessing of Authority to make is a MASSIVE 12/17 with lifesteal or Shield of Honor.

    Pharaoh's Blessing is also a very strong spell to play on this minion

    Great stats for the cost, but I don't think this will be included in any decklist. Not big enough for big/Duel! Paladin, and no immediate effect when played from hand.

    I suspect we will only see this in Arena, and I bet it will be a nightmare to remove there.

    Without some other effect, it’ll probably not see any play

    I think this might end up being better than some people are giving it credit for.  Even pulling this from a Duel could potentially kill something smaller from the opponent's deck while giving you a quick heal and a surviving body on board.

    Quick!  Someone give me something clever to write here.

    Solid stats. This'd make an excellent target for buffs and would be a great random 6-drop. Tentatively, I do think this will see play in some constructed deck since it's such a great target for Paladin spells. Stick a few Librams of Wisdom on this and you're good to go.

    Would love to know Blizzard's thought process behind this card. I guess it's ok when summoned off of Duel! or Commencement but there are so many better and bigger cards to put into your deck

    This is certainly a Common card. I like messing around with different statlines as much as the next guy - moreso, probably, given how much I love Frazzled Freshman - but this is just so painfully mediocre for a class that kind of needs help right now.

    It has good stats, but it might be a bit too slow and easy to remove.
