10 mana 10/10 Taunt

Common Ā· Minion Ā· Saviors of Uldum Ā· Taunt

Will not see play, but yeah, so much for diluting the 10 drop pool with Phaoris.

Guess this a great Mage card.

Diluting is not fortifying which is what this card is doing.

We’re still talking about trading a 10 mana 8/8 for two 10 mana 10/10’s with Taunt.

1 ā€˜poison card’ (5/5) and 2 powerful 10-drops >.>

Will see play just not in a deck. Mage gets taunt options from sea giant aswell now.

Really dislike. How’s some lame monument more powerful than a Faceless Behemoth which served the Old Gods themselves? Or something. I don’t know lore very deep and I know it doesn’t even matter in HS but I just respect Faceless Behemoth as a 10 mana 10/10 more than this piece of rock.

If you are referring to Conjure Mage, they typically run Mountain Giant which costs 12 mana - not 10. This is why they either get Grave Horrors or more giants. Its the 12 mana pool you want to dilute.

I think in standard they run Sea Giants as well as a ā€œbackup planā€. Not sure, its not my format (as you know) :wink:

Its not mine either. I’ve played strictly wild all season. I don’t miss standard and I have 3 decks I actually enjoy playing. :grin:

Diluting would be if the cards were weaker. This is a straight up upgrade over a sea giant and is probably one of the best if not the best 10 drops you can get out of it.

How’s a Barista with no combat training stronger than Khadgar, one of the strongest mages in Warcraft Lore? It’s best not to argue the logistics from vanilla stats alone.

The reason people are talking about the 10 mana pool is because people are talking about running Sea Giants instead because you have a chance of getting the legendary 10/10 reborn divine shield minion

However, I’m sure mages are going to stick with the 12 mana pool because it is much more consistent.

Given just how many swarm-centric cards are gonna be out there, if I’m running a CC deck in Standard, it’s gonna have Sea Giants in it.

Very true. Murloc Shaman will be everywhere.

As much as I love this card because CC LAWLAWLAWLAWL my favorite thing is the flavor text.

ā€œThis is not the greatest card in the world. This is just a monument.ā€

I can’t not read that in Jack Black’s voice :rofl:

OK.

Great Mages will Conjure Sea Giants into Living Monument.

Good Mages will Conjure Sea Giants into Colossus of the Moon

Bad Mages will Conjure Sea Giants into this 5/5 King Phaoris.

y…

Solid buff to mage CC

I think there is still room for 12 mana 10/10 with charge I guess

so sea giant hits CC and you get two 10/10 taunts. Seems fair. You have to have skill to play CC on giants so…
