The Card of the Day for the 15th of February is our blazing buddy from the Shaman class that can bring on the pain right off the bat.
PROS: This 6-mana, 6/5 minion serves as one of your main threats in the Shaman control deck. Its stats will immediately force opponents to have an answer to this minion. Dealing 3 damage, its strong battlecry effect lets you remove threats or soften them up for your smaller minions to take down. As Shaman control usually has strong minion removal spells such as [card]Hex[/card] and [card]Lightning Storm[/card], you can be sure to at least get one hit in. You could also give it taunt via [card]Ancestral Healing[/card] or windfury through [card]Windfury[/card], making him a sturdy wall or a formidable linebreaker.
CONS: While there aren't that many disadvantages to the card, once you starting earning a lot of dust there are many possible alternatives. [card]Cairne Bloodhoof[/card] and [card]The Black Knight[/card] are great legendary replacements, although that of course depends on what you need. Also, while the 3 damage is great, when behind against other control decks like Druid and Priest, it may not do much versus the tougher threats they can put on the board
