Phantom Militia

Phantom Militia is a rare neutral minion card, from the The Witchwood set.

Strategy
Phantom Militia has stats similar to Squirming Tentacle with added flexibility. On top of being a solid 3-drop, especially in the Arena, it can be used to efficiently spend 6 or 9 mana as well. It's also very useful for fulfilling the requirements for Fire Plume's Heart.

Trivia

 * Its flavor text is a reference to the novel and musical .
 * Phantom Militia is a tribute to Tom60229, the winner of the 2017 Hearthstone World Championship, with the English pun being "Phantom Militia". The card's Chinese name (威靈民兵. ) is pronounced similarly to Tom's, who also provided the Traditional Chinese voice acting for the card.
 * Unlike Fiery Bat and Mok'Nathal Lion, which were directly based on Firebat and VKLiooon, Phantom Militia was fully designed before the tournament and was "backronymed" to fit Tom.
 * The card has the same statline and effectively the same ability as Half-dead Walrus, from the initial tests for The Witchwood.
