King Bagurgle

King Bagurgle is a Tier 5 minion in the Battlegrounds game mode.

Strategy
King Bagurgle is a strong late-game option for Murloc warbands, giving a boardwide buff akin to Goldrinn, the Great Wolf. Because its buff is split into a Battlecry and a Deathrattle, it can be useful with both Brann Bronzebeard and Baron Rivendare, moreso the former due to Murlocs' lack of Deathrattle synergies, and can be kept to fill out a board slot or simply used as a cycling buff akin to Coldlight Seer. If kept, Bagurgle should ideally be played on the very left side to trigger its Deathrattle as early as possible.

Trivia

 * King Bagurgle is based on the card King Bagurgle, Terror of the Tides, from the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game "Crown of the Heavens" series.
 * The same card art is also used in I Am Murloc, one of the "Power Chord" spells generated by Elite Tauren Chieftain.
