Hearthstone Card of the Day #2 Bonemare

in gaming •  7 years ago  (edited)

 Bonemare is just a common card, but getting it in arena feels almost unfair for your opponent. It's basically a 7 mana 9/9 that adds taunt to a minion so in the topdeck wars of a 2nd part of an arena game it's almost always game-winning.

The card is also used in constructed. Before Kobolds & Catacombs it was the most dominant card in Hearthstone, around 35% of the decks containing it. 

 RegisKillbin suggested a nerf for this card, as you can see in the following video:

 

But even with a new expansion coming out last December, Bonemare hasn't lost its appeal to deck builders and it can still be found in many Legend-reaching picks.

I love Bonemare too much. When I'm playing against a weaker deck, it works out great, but when I'm on the ropes, it's definitely not a clutch card for me.

I just started finding that if I can be patient enough to play it with a charge minion after controlling the board, it works out pretty well.

I assume you're talking about constructed? But anyways, it's definitely a 'win more' kind of a card, as you were saying.
