Tuskarr Fisherman

Tuskarr Fisherman is a common neutral minion card, from the Knights of the Frozen Throne set.

Strategy
Tuskarr Fisherman plays a similar role to Ancient Mage, in that it gives other friendly minions Spell Damage. Because Spell Damage gets more value when played with many damage-based spells, this plays a more flexible role than the Mage because its lower Mana cost allows you to play more spells in the same turn. It is also comparable to Kobold Geomancer, but gaining 1 health in exchange for requiring another minion on board.

Tuskarr Fisherman's effect can also be given to minions with Stealth, improving the chances that the effect can be used over multiple turns.
