It takes an action to draw this card,
two to play it, one to use it, and two more to draw the cards to
discard to it. That's a grand total of 6 actions to deliver a measly
3 damage. If you want to use discard-fueled attacks to inflict damage,
you are far better off with something like Spiral Dive, rather than
this. There are some cards you can combo with this to bring it up
from abysmal to merely awful. I don't see any way to continue on
up to a more exalted level (such as mediocre). So I won't be making
any suggestions. Besides, I don't want to give you the false impression
that this card might be playable in some circumstances.

These guys are rough, tough and ready
to lay a beat down on anyone they come across. These guys are an
ok card they have a truly limited usage in the grand scope of thing
because they just can't keep a continual stream of damage going
at your opponent without some extra card drawing such as photo album
or delivery owl. They also in a sense do damage to you in the form
of putting cards that you took from your library into the graveyard.
Now this isn't as bad as taking straight damage because you do get
to choose which cards you want to get rid of. These thugs are especially
good in a character deck that relies on these guys to finish your
opponent off. Overall they have a limited usage but are needed for
some decks to win so if you have a way to draw or need non spell
damage play them and play multiple copies otherwise don't even think
about them.

Draco's thugs are on the loose and
they are causing mayhem in Hogwarts. Now Crabbe and Goyle are not
very formidable by themselves but used in connection w/ other characters
they can be very annoying. The would combo w/ Draco Malfoy well,
for when your opponent has no good cards to discard you want to
hit 'em with damage. But the spot where they come in is they make
up the one third of the feared threesome of the all Character/Adventure
Deck. The other two are Ron Weasley and Fred and George Weasley.
The reason they are so important is because you're going to have
all these characters out and all these adventures and you're going
to have duplicate cards in your hand. These guys allow to discard
those cards to do damage. Your opponent won't know what hit them.

Tough Guys, huh? These two are followers.
They can't do much for themselves, but pair them up with Harry Potter,
Draco Malfoy, or a number of other characters and you could have
a winner on your hands. They are definitely not going to allow you
to play a conventional style of game if they are your center stage
character, but they will go nicely in an adventure/character deck.
Keep them in mind if your plan is to wear down your opponent. Otherwise
set this card up in the corner of your room, for scaring away pests!

Crabbe and Goyle are definitely a
couple of brats. This is the third character that can concievably
kill. My first AH deck centered around these guys and they can be
like crazy annoying and effective. i have seen a dozen or so combos
with these crazy kids. Two of my favorites are Hufflepuff Match
and Human Chess Game. They eat cards out of your hand for damage,
but so what!?!? Ever wish you didnt have those lessons in your hand?
I know i have lol. Great Hall, Photo Album, or one of the Harry
Potter characters works great with these guys. It's too bad you
can't target critters or these guys would be broken beyond belief.
This is another favorite starter of those Lessonless decks, so if
yer gonna build one, give these guys a try.
Also, they dont do damage through spells or critters, so most defensive
spells and adventures are useless against them. These guys are combolicious,
so keep an eye out for them!
