Nightblade is a neutral minion card, from the Basic set.
How to get
Prior Year of the Gryphon's rotation on March 30, 2021:
- Two copies of Nightblade were automatically included in all players' collections upon unlocking the druid class.
- Two Golden copies of Nightblade were a reward for raising a druid to levels 53 and 54.
Strategy
This card's Battlecry is useful in dealing direct damage to the enemy hero. It synergizes with 
Brann Bronzebeard to double the Battlecry damage, and with Youthful Brewmaster and Ancient Brewmaster to replay the minion and reuse the Battlecry. However, Nightblade has poor stats for its mana cost, and is inefficient in comparison to many other burst damage options.
