Swampqueen Hagatha

Swampqueen Hagatha is a legendary shaman minion card, from the Rise of Shadows set.

Fixed bugs

 * If Drustvar Horror had Runic Carvings as one of its taught spells, the Battlecry would cast Runic Carvings with both Choose One options combined, even if neither Fandral Staghelm nor Ossirian Tear were in play. This was fixed in Patch 19.0.0.65614.

Strategy
Swampqueen Hagatha trades a low-tempo minion for a very value-efficient minion to use later. The Drustvar Horror can find spells way above its cost like Bloodlust, Rain of Toads, or The Storm Bringer or help fish for spells like Lava Burst or Hex to gain lethal or save yourself. It is generally well worth the cost and can find its place in control decks or midrange decks as a potential finisher.

The Drustvar Horror's Battlecry also works with Shudderwock, further empowering its Battlecry. Selecting non-targeting spells is advisable and avoid transformation or ally-damaging cards if you plan on using both.

Swampqueen Hagatha is extremely powerful when combined with Heart of Vir'naal or Brann Bronzebeard, allowing for creating two Drustvar Horrors and allowing them to cast twice as many spells. Note that picking a spell with Overload will cause it to be applied twice.

Trivia

 * If both heroes are Hagatha the Witch, the allied hero version of her entry quote takes precedent.

Patch changes

 * Drustvar Horror will now randomly pick one option for Runic Carvings instead of casting both.
 * Added.
