doc The last of only 3 new Warlord cards, today we have the Rare Warlord Character Menacing Mauler.

At a cost of 5 with a threshold of 3, this 5/4/3 Character packs an amazing punch. In addition to it's solid stats, as soon as a blocking party is formed, his ability is triggered causing 1 damage to all blockers. Since triggered abilities can not be responded to, anyone who takes lethal damage is toast, end of story.

Know what the Menacing Mauler dreams of? Having a cohort named Carnival King and facing a Micromajig army of vast proportions!

Dealing that one extra damage, and to all blockers, is huge. Just having the ability may cause an opponent to think twice about blocking at all. Since it's not uncommon to chump block with a 1 life Character, now a chump has to have 2 life to protect your opponent's Influence. With Warlord direct damage and removal, I can see a Menacing Mauler facing down a weenie army and hear him laughing all the way!

Also of note, Menacing Mauler may have the most disturbing flavor text of any The Spoils card...

In limited, he's first string. In constructed, he's a definite "3 or 4 of".

Limited: 5/5
Constructed: 4.5/5
