About Dragon's Herald

Dragon's Herald, Creature — goblin shaman, designed by Daarken first released in Oct, 2008 in the set Shards of Alara. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 3.87.

Dragon's Herald would be beneficial in a Jund (black, red, green) deck that focuses on sacrificing creatures and ramping into powerful dragons, such as Hellkite Overlord. While Dragon's Herald offers a unique way to cheat Hellkite Overlord onto the battlefield, it may be a bit slow and risky in a competitive setting compared to more efficient ramp or reanimation strategies like Through the Breach or Reanimate. Overall, Dragon's Herald could be a fun and flavorful inclusion in a casual dragon-themed deck, but may not see play in more optimized or competitive decks.
