Silverback Patriarch
1.

General Comments

Silverback Patriarch is a very weak minion. Although the Taunt ability can be appealing to new players, its attack value is too low to effectively trade with opposing minions. This means that although it may delay your opponent for a turn or two, they will still gain a board advantage, since their minions will not die as they remove your Silverback Patriarch.

2.

Constructed Play

Silverback Patriarch is never seen in high level Constructed play, nor should it be included as a low-budget option. It is simply too weak to effectively fight from the board, and the Taunt ability does very little to progress the game in your favour.

3.

Arena

Silverback Patriarch is equally weak in Arena as it is in Constructed, and should generally be avoided at all costs.
