Hogger, Doom of Elwynn

Hogger, Doom of Elwynn is a legendary neutral minion card, from the Whispers of the Old Gods set.

Strategy
Though it has worse stats than the basic 7/7 War Golem, it will most likely take damage and spawn at least one 2/2 Gnoll when being killed.

This card has excellent synergy in Warrior decks with cards that deal damage to friendly minions, such as Ravaging Ghoul, Cruel Taskmaster, Animated Berserker or Scourgelord Garrosh.

The best way to deal with this card is either to Silence it before dealing damage to it, or to remove it without dealing damage by transforming it (e.g. Hex), using cards with destroy effects (e.g. Assassinate), or, best of all, using plain old mind control effects (e.g. Entomb or, well, Mind Control).

Lore
This is the corrupted version of Hogger.
