Notes

Strategy

This minion is ideal for a Hunter deck focused around Deathrattles. Aside from neutral Deathrattle minions such as Journey to Un'GoroEggnapper or LegacyLeper Gnome, there are a number of Hunter-specific minions such as LegacySavannah Highmane and Whispers of the Old GodsFiery Bat which can benefit greatly from a +1/+1 boost. Forlorn Stalker's stats are average for its mana cost, which is why there should be at least one Deathrattle minion in your hand. If used with The League of ExplorersBrann Bronzebeard, this could provide multiple minions with a hefty +2/+2 power-up; if played with a large hand, this can result in totally securing the board within the next two turns as these minions are summoned.

Quotes

Summon
The beasts betrayed me.
