Taunt
He likes to act like he's in charge, but the silverback matriarch actually runs things.
Silverback Patriarch is a neutral minion card, from the Basic set.
How to get[edit | edit source]

Silverback Patriarch is uncraftable and cannot be crafted or disenchanted.
Strategy[edit | edit source]
Silverback Patriarch is generally considered an overcosted/understatted card, with very little potential despite its Beast type. New players may find this card of use if building an early game Taunt-heavy deck, but it is otherwise not recommended; even in those decks, Ironfur Grizzly is a stronger option, with a better statline and retaining the Beast tag.
As a Beast, it has synergy with Hunter cards such as Starving Buzzard and Scavenging Hyena. There is also some potential synergy with Druid cards like Wildwalker and Knight of the Wild.
Silverback Patriarch has multiple stronger alternatives. Although some of them lack the Beast tag, generally this is a minor upside at best.
Lore[edit | edit source]
Silverback Patriarchs are level 42-43 gorillas native to Stranglethorn Vale. They can be found northeast of Booty Bay, near the eastern shore of the peninsula.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- The artwork for this card comes from the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game "Servants of the Betrayer" series, for the card King Khan.
