Notes
- While minions visually appear to be summoned all at once, they're actually brought into play from leftmost to rightmost. This is important if it pulls minions with effects that trigger after you summon a minion, as it will trigger off the others Recruited by Call to Arms if it was brought into play first or second.
Example: 
Knife Juggler is pulled first, and it deals two random damage. If Knife Juggler is pulled second, it deals one. If it's pulled third, it does not trigger.
Strategy
Call to Arms allows you to gain board control early in the game by summoning 3 low-cost minions in the battlefield for 5 mana. It also thins your deck by 3, allowing you to draw better cards. Call to Arms is a key card for Aggro Paladin and Murloc Paladin, letting you swarm the board with high-impact cards like 
Righteous Protector, Murloc Tidecaller, Knife Juggler, and Argent Squire. While this card is compatible with 
Baku the Mooneater, the deck-building restrictions causes only 1-drops to get Recruited, which lowers this card's immediate impact but still functions as a deck thinner.
It can also be used by Control Paladin as a unique board clear by pulling Doomsayer, along with cards like 
Dirty Rat to protect it and Loot Hoarder and Bloodmage Thalnos to refuel.
