Pit Crocolisk

Pit Crocolisk is a common neutral minion card, from the Saviors of Uldum set.

Strategy
Pit Crocolisk has a terrible, 5 mana vanilla body for being an 8 mana minion. It does, however, make up for it with its battlecry. Playing this card on curve would ideally remove an enemy minion from their side of the board and leave you with a solid 5/6 on your side. Alternatively, Pit Crocolisk can be used in Battlecry Shaman as a pyroblast with a 5/6 body attached. Using the hero power heart of vir'naal and going face with pit crocolisk deals 10 damage in total and leaves you with a 5/6 on board. Pit Crocolisk tends to be a solid pick for Arena, as removal is far and few between.
