Fal'dorei Strider

Fal'dorei Strider is an epic rogue minion card, from the Kobolds and Catacombs set.

Strategy
Fal'dorei Strider is a reasonable body that can create up to 16/16 in stats over the course of the game. The effect is similar to Beneath the Grounds, but it's far easier for the player to cycle through their own deck. Rogue has access to good card draw such as Sprint, Fan of Knives, and Elven Minstrel as well as great Gadgetzan Auctioneer synergy. This is a strong card for any deck that can draw the spiders out, mainly control decks but Miracle Rogue in particular.

When playing against this card, it might be a good idea to save board clears for after some spiders have been summoned. This will prevent the Rogue from potentially reloading their board for no mana.

For a time it sustained them and they were safe, but it did not last forever.
