General Comments
Dr. Boom is the main character and marquee card of The Boomsday Project. As a card, he has managed to live up to his lofty expectation. He has become a staple card in controlling Warrior decks, seeing frequent play in both Odd Warrior and Taunt Warrior. His upgraded Hero Power is substantially stronger in the late game than the Whirlwind Hero Power on Scourgelord Garrosh, making Dr. Boom the Hero card of choice for Warriors.
Constructed Play
Dr. Boom is a highly playable card in slower Warrior decks. His effect which gives Rush to all of your Mechs is strong in combination Omega Assembly, but does not necessitate that an entire deck be built around it. Dedicated Mech Warrior decks have been unable to find success in The Boomsday Project, whereas controlling Warrior decks (such as Odd Warrior) have been quite successful. Dr. Boom offers these decks a value engine in the late game for battling other control decks with the upgraded Hero Power.
