Notes

To edit these notes, go to Template:Core Rager notes.

  • Core Rager's Battlecry will take activate after most summoning-related triggered effects, but before any Secrets. This means that if a player already has a LegacyStarving Buzzard on the field, summoning a Core Rager will draw a new card into the hand, thus negating the prerequisite needed to acquire the Rager's enchantment. For a detailed sequence of events, see Advanced rulebook.

Lore[]

Core Ragers are a type of LegacyCore Hound, fiery elemental beasts normally found in Firelands of the Elemental Plane.

Wowpedia iconThis section uses content from Wowpedia.
Core Ragers can be found in Molten Core as the pets of Golemagg the Incinerator; two will assist him in the fight. They cannot be killed while Golemagg still lives; once he dies, they will die too.
A core hound is a giant elemental beast, with the appearance of a massive bulldog with two heads, each equipped with a mouth filled with rows of flaming teeth. Its body is covered with armored hide and studded with bony spikes. A streak of flames runs down its spine from head to stubby tail. The oldest and most powerful of the core hounds is Magmadar, the alpha male and sire of the entire current pack, and every core hound can trace their lineage back to Magmadar.
Core hounds originate from the Firelands of the Elemental Plane. However, they have also lived alongside their master Ragnaros in the Molten Core, and more recently attempted to invade Mount Hyjal.

In Hearthstone

It turns out that elemental lords are fond of keeping pets. Unfortunately, when a magma giant thinks “cuddly,” he checks off a list that includes things like “giant,” “two-headed,” “fang-mawed,” and “made of living magma.” The only beings dwelling in the elemental plane of fire who match that description are the terrifying core hounds. While keeping one of these critters probably makes apartment hunting a chore, there’s no better four-legged friend to have when your back is up against the wall.[1]
