Description

He used to work as an accountant before he tried his hand at Berserkering.

Frothing Berserker is a rare Warrior class Minion card. Its persistent effect causes it to gain 1 Attack every time any minion (regardless of owner) takes damage. This is a low cost card that can be played early in the game and quickly become a substantial threat, and because of this the Frothing Berserker synergizes exceptionally well with aggro/rush Warrior decks.

Strategy

The Frothing Berserker gains attack whenever any minion is damaged, regardless of its owner, and because of this, it synergizes exceptionally well with a large variety of Warrior abilities. Perhaps the best card to use in conjunction with the Frothing Berserker is Whirlwind, due to the fact that it deals a very low amount of damage (one) while allowing the Warrior to damage every single minion on the board, which results in a massive boost to the Frothing Berserker's attack. Cards that deal damage and boost the attack of a minion, such as Inner Rage and Cruel Taskmaster, also synergize exceedingly well with the Frothing Berserker, even if they are not directly applied/cast on the Berserker itself. If it is not dispatched quickly, the Frothing Berserker can quickly give a significant advantage to the Warrior. Because of this, opponents will prioritize its removal, and therefore the Frothing Berserker is best played when it can be protected or when the Warrior has multiple high threats present on the board. The Frothing Berserker also synergizes very well with creatures that have enrage mechanics, such as the Amani Berserker and Raging Worgen, who benefit from being damaged (making early game combos with abilities like Whirlwind absurdly threatening).
