Does anyone else think this might be a little busted for Druids?
At nine mana it’s a slow card, but for Druid, it seems like it might be outrageously good.
Idk, What do you guys think?
decklist ? hard to think how good or not would it be without one
I’m not sure why I would need to provide a list, when every card ever released in the past and even this miniset, has been theory debated before without one.
But ok. What if Druid plays this on say, turn 6, and pulls Dorian, Fye and Eonar? For six mana that seems a little crazy to me.
Or, am I missing something?
(And BTW, ignoring you from now on, irrespective of your answer. I have never seen you demand this of anyone else in all your years of participating in theorizing here.)
the only card i can think to pull is eonar but not sure dungar is word running just for that one card
in class without any issues to draw eonar from the deck
No, because it might be a waste of early-low-cost space in that deck, because that deck often has 14 mana and an Eonar drawn.
Well, I am no Druid expert, but for any class that has access to ramp, this card seems like it might be outrageously good.
or unneeded because its able to ramp draw and play from hand
anything worth pulling with dungar
Those ramp decks aren’t that slow. E.g. they are only 10 min decks which is not that far off from the semi-aggro decks; even highlander warrior is ~10min average game time; it used to be 20min.
They have basically already used their Eonar relatively early; the new card has the potential to make it better; but it’s not a deck starved of playing cards that are already in the deck.
Dungar Will be played for free with eonar to refresh and that is it.
Eonar is already the only titans minion in many druid decks ATM.

I imply you may have already pulled Eonar from the deck. The deck already pulls fast from the deck and uses cards fast.
The deck is more in need of randomization of cards (e.g. more Discovers) rather than using stats because it has that.
It still a board coming into play Very fast.
You don’t need the perfect combination. Just a board so the opponent is busy with something.
Isnt it just really a reprint of the old varian warrior card which wasnt all that great even back then…
I’ll confess I dont really care enough to go looking expansion to expansion to see what the best fit is but it doesnt seem much different than what druid can do these days with a good marin roll
Also consider the other problem. You are pulling your Yogg or Eonar and Zilliax.
Exposing your best cards to a single opponent round is often a handicap,
and i dont think a druid player would remove flowerchild from their decks to replace it with dungar
(something you would be forced to do because it would often draw the cards youd want to summon with dungar )
I think this won’t be played in druid, unless they try to use it to owlownius combo(pull him and Eonar) the deck build restriction to get a specific minion(or set of minions) is too much. too many good cards druid is already playing are battlecry, like yea let me pull my Marin+ doomkin/flower child just to find Eonar they were played for their stat line anyways
oh yeah and not that all lists run it but have to cut yogg to guarantee Eonar

Yes, it makes more sense on a druid deck that doesn’t have a truckload of mana already.
Isn’t owlonius though still not with a great netdeck?
I have a feeling this card is just unplayable still
Druid decks are mostly optimized rn, a 9 mana 3/3 feels so bad to play, cause it also relies heavily on draw. That turn 6 dungar becomes a 9 mana do nothing if you already drew your eonar, or unkilliax, or whatever.
I think its too rng for a class that can consistently win already. but idk.
