Strategy

Spellbreaker is one of few sources of Silence for all classes, which makes it useful for neutralizing minions with powerful effects or have been buffed with other cards and effects. It can shut down minions that rely on card effects to boost its stats like Edwin VanCleef, and in aggressive decks, it can remove Taunt to break through the opponent's defenses, making it a more cost effective way to maintain aggression.

It's a higher end and much more cost-efficient alternative to Ironbeak Owl.

Quotes
