Carrion Grub

Carrion Grub is a common hunter minion card, from the Whispers of the Old Gods set.

Strategy
This minion has no special abilities, but as a Beast it provides synergy with many hunter cards. It also has reasonable stats for its cost - being a 2/5 it can easily kill other early minions without dying.

It is also conveniently located behind Houndmaster on the mana-curve: Playing Carrion Grub on turn 3 can turn it into 4/7 with Taunt on turn 4.
