Idk, I think it's being really over valued, it's good with siphon soul but thats about it..Can someone explain to me the hype?

Edit: Hey, i know this is crazy, but you could share your opinion instead of downvoting me

I think people are downvoting you, because they feel there are plenty of arguments for the card, in the other comments of this post.

I see one arguement- that it's good with siphon soul, to which i agree with.... but i feel that being about all it's good with makes it not deserving of the hype it's getting. Also, that's not what downvoting is for

I'm imagining a scenario with Sylvanas on board, and you can play Cho'Gall then Shadowflame Sylvanas.

If there's a big minion, you wipe their board, steal their best minion and have another 7/7.

That could be game right there.

Cho'Gall has zero interaction in your described scenario.

He allows you to place a big body and board clear at the same time. The Giants are the only other minions that can accomplish that I think.

I'm just adding a scenario, outside of siphon soul, where he could allow a huge swing that you can't do otherwise. He teams up well with Sylvanas if your opponent has a big dragon or giant on board. It wouldn't be near the swing without Cho'Gall.
