This card's "[[Elusive]]" ability makes it impossible to remove using single-target spell removal like [[Soulfire]] and [[Sap]]. Along with its [[Taunt]] ability, this forces opponents to use minions to bring it down. The Arcane Nullifier is especially strong against aggressive decks with low-cost minions, as it will likely [[trade]] with multiple targets. It is also the only minion to possess both Taunt and the Elusive ability, making it singularly effective in this role.

Strategy

This card's "Elusive" ability makes it impossible to remove using single-target spell removal like LegacySoulfire and LegacySap. Along with its Taunt ability, this forces opponents to use minions to bring it down. The Arcane Nullifier is especially strong against aggressive decks with low-cost minions, as it will likely trade with multiple targets. This is the only minion other than Whispers of the Old GodsSoggoth the Slitherer to possess both Taunt and the Elusive ability, making it especially effective in this role. Magnetic minions can be very effective in making this minion difficult to remove.

Area of effect spells such as LegacyFlamestrike, and random target spells like LegacyDeadly Shot and LegacyTinkmaster Overspark can however still be used to remove the Nullifier. LegacyMass Dispel can also allow the opponent to silence the Nullifier, removing its Elusive ability and thus making it vulnerable to other spells. The Nullifier can also be targeted by Battlecries, such as being Silenced by LegacySpellbreaker or LegacyIronbeak Owl or being destroyed by LegacyThe Black Knight.

Alternatives include the Senjin Shieldmasta (1 Attack more), and the NaxxramasSludge Belcher (whose Deathrattle is similarly effective at absorbing minion damage). However, neither of these minions possess the Elusive trait.
