    Its not half bad honestly. Remove 1 minion (most of the time anyway) and put up two 1/1 taunts so you're not immediately in danger of losing tempo or get shitfaced by smorc.

    But being in a class that can heal and generally play offense than defence? Its all down to how important those 2 tokens that come out of this will be. If there's more token support, this may be competitive. If not, well, there's always arena and duels I guess.

    This card seems good token DH didn't had a good 4 drop to play this is quite a sticky minion which token decks appreciate..

    summon 2 1/1s is 1 mana- Air Raid  (assuming 1 mana for the twinspell like in the mage twinspell Ray of Frost -> Freezing Potion)

    3/3 rush is 2.5 mana - Rabid Worgen

    both cards saw some play (air raid still sees play 55% wr according to hs replay)

    so the 2 1/1 taunts even without synergy are ok enough.

    anyway I think this card has good enough value and untility, token DH has no 4 drop plan so if token DH is good this is a big consideration in the deck, might find it's way to other dh decks too as a defensive tool (Removal + board presence)

    Nor bad per se, but not really remarkable enough to see any constructed play.

    The fact that the tokens have taunt makes the card fairly unique in generating multiple taunt minions and dealing damage. Compare to Flanking Strike, which, despite being a strong card, does not see much play because hunter can't accommodate it in a competitive deck.

    This post is discussing the wild format.

    Nice support for Token Demon Hunter - could also work in other DH Decks aswell.

    Blizz definitely want to psh token DH, and that card seems good even in other archetypes.

    Very good in arena, and a reasonable way to stall before token DH really goes online. Honestly, it's not awful, but not broken, so I like it, even if, a lot of time, it's just a 4 mana 2/2 deal 3.

    Rating cards on coolness factor rather than predicting power because I like screwing up rating averages (and because I suck at predicting real power levels, but we'll ignore that LUL)

    It's not bad, more DH token support is never a bad thing, want that archetype to work. Interesting how the tokens have taunt, definitely think it's needed for this archetype

    really good for token DH, but it's still a token DH card, which means that it's BAD. Token DH needs to be behind on board, AND hope that Wrathscale Naga doesn't kill the opponents board before your done trading minions into it. The archetype is too RNG dependent (in a bad way), comes out way too late as a "aggro" deck AND it doesn't have enough good pay-off cards. (Wrathscale Naga is good, but others like Blood Herald are a absolute joke.)

    I don't see this getting much play in standard/wild, UNLESS they print some OP AF cards/legendary that works with this. But that can easely happen, as they almost never print bad DH cards. (Even the worst ones so far, like Magehunter has seen some play/sees play as a tech card.)

    EDIT: On a second glance, this might see play in some kinda Control/Soul DH actually because of the 1/1s with taunt. So it's kinda like a tech card against mirrors i guess?

    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.

    I mean... sure? Good arena card, but maybe there will be more support that will be revealed soon that might make this playable.

    This seems just ok. It's interesting that they seem to be pushing DH toward more control-type strategies.

    Maybe, but not because of this card, it's nothing too insane as far as I a concerned, you need to remember this is a 3rd expansion of the year the power level is gonna be much higher.

    Looks like a strong arena card, but I don't know what kind of standard or wild deck would use this.

    Remember when Infested Wolf was a good card? This is a better version of that.

    This card seems on the cusp of being playable. It's a perfectly fair card, but 95% of the time, "perfectly fair" cards don't see play. It'll be pretty good in Arena though.

    They are really pushing token demon hunter it seems. but I mean there are no board wide buffs in DH, so unless they print something like that no chance still...

    Compared to Flanking Strike, this isn't half bad. If you trigger the deathrattle then it becomes 3 damage and two small blockers. If it trades but doesn't die, then you have a strictly better version of Troll Batrider. I don't think this is broken or will ever be nerfed, but I do think it is strong enough to see play.

    Seems at least decent for slower DH decks.  I don't think the really aggressive lists would want to forgo all the damage they can deal for this, so it remains to be seen if token/control DH can finally rise to the top.

    4 to rush a minion and get a small taunt wall to build back up... not bad.  Not great, but not bad.

    Rastakhan's Rumble was the third set of 2018.

    I think that MSoG and K&C were just broken sets that happened to be the third ones, so people made that rule up.

    year of the raven was weak as a whole.. also the dragons expansion was waay stronger than the other 2 preceeding expansions..

    it's always like that cause they want the expansion to be relevant so it's a big powercreep one.

    Card looks solid, defensive card that acts as token generator.

    Will be a staple I think if token DH becomes a thing.

    5/5 on three bodies and token synergy, maybe it can remove some minion before diying.

    With all the tokens that DH have right now, I hope some strong token synergy will come

    I feel like Token DH could become a thing if Wrathscale Naga wouldn't be one ping away from ruining most of the strategy's early/mid-game. And if Tempo/Soul Demon Hunters wouldn't be so much more efficient in their game plans. At least Blizzard tries.

    Seems alright.  I don't think it's a standard card but may be alright in the arena.  It is interesting how the tokens have taunt thought, but because they only have 1 health it's not that helpful.

    Compared to Flanking Strike, I'd much rather have the 3/3 than two 1/1s with taunt. Also, the fact that the tokens don't have rush like most of the other token generators DH has means they are less likely to contribute to Feast of Souls and Wrathscale Naga. I think that Renowned Performer doesn't contribute enough power or synergy to the lackluster archetype of Token DH or any other DH archetype for that matter.

    I mean, this card is fine, but I don't think I really want to run it in any of my Demon Hunter decks. Demon Hunter has such good cards already, and this just doesn't feel like it fits with them.

    This is an OK card. Demon Hunter doesn't play with OK cards, they have too many good ones.

    I have spoken.
