Wrathguard

Wrathguard is a common warlock minion card, from the Grand Tournament set.

Strategy
This card is basically a Felstalker with a different drawback. It is very useful in an aggressive deck if played on curve due to its high stats for a 2 drop. The user must be careful however because if played late game the enemy will likely attack it with a high Attack minion or high damage spell (like Shield Slam) in order to both remove a threat and deal a high amount of damage to the hero at the same time.

Wrathguard is a good Silence target, and a Light's Champion can be played on curve to remove its drawback, although whether it's worth using including a Silence card to do so is debatable.

Wrathguard is a very good target for Treachery, in that it can synergize with AoE effects Hellfire and Felfire Potion to deal double the damage to the hero or using Shadowflame to also hurt the enemy hero.
