Mindbreaker

Mindbreaker is a rare neutral minion card, from the Knights of the Frozen Throne set.

Strategy
This minion has decent stats for its mana cost, comparable to Carrion Grub. However, Mindbreaker's main strength lies in its effect. It can be valuable in certain constructed decks such as Pirate Warrior, where the Hero Power is rarely used, and in both constructed and Arena it can be an effective tool when facing classes such as hunter, mage, or warlock. Mindbreaker's best use is countering opponents with improved Hero Powers, such as ones provided by Fire Plume's Heart, Lord Jaraxxus, Hero cards or ones buffed by Justicar Trueheart, Baku the Mooneater or Genn Greymane. These are all highly valuable Hero Powers, and disabling them can potentially turn the tide of a game.
