Hello this is my review of the new Murloc monster ally cards. First I would like to say I currently own three types of Murloc cards and will expand this review when I get more cards or info on them. I’m basing this review of my experience with them in my Druid deck. The cards I have are, CrabbyFin, Murloc Coast Runner, and SlippyFist.
With that out of the way I would say that opponents with a Murloc deck can be just a terrifying and as fighting Murloc in WoW. Like in WoW, Murlocs are weak individually but in swarm are lethal. So ideally you want a lot of Murlocs (especially Murloc Coastrunner). When I recently played test with my friend TigerBoy I noticed when I played them together they were really good. When I played SlippyFist after Coast Runner I noticed that SlippyFist gave Coast Runner Elusive (SlippyFist give each Murloc in play Elusive). Then a turn later I played CrabbyFin I notice I could put a Crab Monster ally token down with 1/1 each (CrabbyFin allows you to put a token down with 1 atk and 1hp for each Murloc entering play or when CrabbyFin enters play). So now I have all my Murlocs have elusive and I have token in play so four allies in play. Needless to say like Murlocs in WoW I was able to over whelm my friend (with help of my emerald acid spewer) and take board control and won the match. Murloc in a group in play (a swarm) could easily gain you board control. My advices if facing someone who use Murloc take them out as quickly as possible before more enter play.
The Good:
The cheap
Get stronger in a group
Have a Murloc hero make them even stronger.
The bad
There weak individually
Weak to AOE attacks
Or multiple attacks
Most have a lot of Murlocs in deck
Plz feel free to discuss this post in our WoW tcg general discussion thread.
