New Hunter Card announced: King Plush

9 mana 6/6 Beast with Charge and Battlecry: Return all minions with less attack than this to their owner’s decks.

seems pretty good if a bit expensive. Messenger Buzzard and cards like that come to mind as decent synergy.

Great flavor, cool hunter card for the class. I’m digging this expansion!

Seems flexible. Good for control by slowing down your opponent’s board. Good for aggro by giving you a fast card that clears taunts.

Control Hunter? lol

I’m getting a bit scared of all the charge minions that are coming out now and Leeroy back to core.

I hope this isn’t another Charge meta.

The fact that this removes enemy Taunts is pretty ridiculous. It can also be brought back with Stranglethorn Heart, albeit as a 6/6.

I get the sneaking suspicion that Hunter will suddenly achieve critical mass like it did in FoL and it’ll go from a “nobody cares” class to S Tier again.

This is a legendary right? I hope so…

Lazy redesign.

In what way does the ‘put them back to their owner’s decks’ is Hunter
?

it’s a big beast that synergizes with handbuff, and we’ve seen “roar” effects that shuffle into owner’s deck before (mostly in singleplayer)

It’s just not flavorful to me, feels like I am just seeing the old King Krush with no changes.
A not extravagant enough effect for me.

It’s not just a charge minion. It’s a charge minion that psychic screams both players boards. All you gotta do is handbuff him a bit with messanger buzzard or w/e else and he just goes straight to the dome. But Psychic scream was never a card people eeeeeeeever complained about when it was in priest, so I’m sure it’ll be perfectly fine.

Post psychic scream now as well. Just for reference. It’s not QUITE the same because it isn’t all minions to the enemy deck, but it’s damn close.

Thank you Lobotomized fireinthehole!, I’m going to quote this in OP for people’s reference

Thy will be done

People lost their lunches when psychic scream was in standard. Utter rioting from the masses. Yes, it really was THAT powerful of an effect.

Fortunately it is in hunter as a legendary, and we all know how bad control hunter is.

Yup, being able to bypass Deathrattles is that huge.

I’m getting tired of all the anti-Deathrattle stuff right now. Reno already made it so Deathrattles are near useless. Now we have this.

Ooh it does seem gross in highlander hunter I didn’t even think about that.

And HL Hunter is already a really good deck, just no one plays it for some reason.

I don’t know what HL Hunter looks like after rotation though.
