I've had him live for 3 turns at most. That hasn't been a rare occurrence, though.
He's lived more for me than he's died the turn after being played.
If he gets the Pagle nerf, I don't think he'll be played at all. It's not worth the effort.
It's a shame the HS community feels the need to complain about any decent card they get beat by. Like Dr. Boom.
We could just make it so Druids can't use the card :p
