And so the bartender says, “Why the long neck?”
Elder Longneck is a common druid minion card, from the Journey to Un'Goro set.
How to get
Elder Longneck can be obtained through Journey to Un'Goro card packs, or through crafting.
| Card | Crafting cost | Disenchanting |
|---|---|---|
| Elder Longneck | 40 | 5 |
| Golden Elder Longneck | 400 | 50 |
Strategy
This minion has identical stats to 
Magma Rager, but can make up for that card's weakness by gaining a defensive adaptation. Crackling Shield, Rocky Carapace, and Shrouding Mist are all strong choices. Flaming Claws and Poison Spit are weak choices, as this minion's strength is already its killing power.
This card is great in a Jungle Giants deck, since it helps complete the quest and will be easy to activate. It fits well in a deck with Tortollan Forager, whose Battlecry will meet the conditions of Elder Longneck's Battlecry immediately afterward.
Trivia
This is the first minion with an "if you're holding" condition that isn't based on holding a Dragon.
