Zadina 923 Report post Posted November 23, 2018 Mage gets its own Elemental version of Duskbreaker! The card was revealed by Eurogamer: From a lore perspective, it's quite peculiar that an Arcane Dinosaur is considered an Elemental. Obviously, the card has the Elemental tag to work nicely with Frost Lich Jaina. However, the comparison with Duskbreaker is very unfavourable: is playing an Elemental the previous turn considered to be easier than holding a Dragon on your hand? Because Arcanosaur right now looks like a balanced (read: quite worse), much slower version of the Priest card. Feel free to share your opinion on this card on the comments below.

Has a bigger body too. It might be ok, but I have hard time putting it in a control mage list. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vayazu 1 Report post Posted November 23, 2018 (edited) The card is very powerful after Jaina but otherwise it's pretty mediocre. It doesn't clear too many turn 6 aggro boards, in that regard it's much slower than Duskbreaker. Unlike Meteorologist it can't go face. It's understatted compared to a Baron Geddon, which is dropped from most elemental mage decks already. Not very excited about this one...
