Latro Abjectus

2 Mana for a 3/2 that can't be attacked? That's good stuff. Latro can wreck spellcaster heroes and throw a wrench into anyone's strategy, even if they use weapons. You see, Latro does best when attacking heroes, because they either don't attack back or Latro makes them set aside resources to strike with a weapon in defense that could have been used more efficiently. Elusive is a powerful ability because it makes people think about their next moves. In our Onyxia raid one of the players used tons of elusive allies and the only way Onyxia could get rid of them was to use one of her 'Destroy all allies' abilities or a damaging spell ability. The dragon and the whelps could only cry at the army of elusive allies while the rest of us stocked up our hands with other allies and such for the post-'destroy everyone' spells.

Limited- 4/5- Latro's got great attack and is tough to kill.
Constructed- 2.5/5- Easier to kill, but still a menace.
Casual-2.5/5
Raid- 4/5- As long as the raid has a strategy, elusive can be quite effective.
 
Aganej2 Latro Abjectus (1/10)

A most effective creature, only killable upon retailation and direct damage and cost effective to boot. A 3/2 for 2 is a nice dent in any hero's life total. This ally would sneak it's way into any sort of alliance deck that's looking for a rush style play. The only thing this guy could fear is a heavy protector or a burn spell, which says a lot because most allies are killed by attacks.

sealed: 4/5 (cost effective and to the point)

constructed: 4.5/5 (a beast because it can come out of the gates early and swinging)

raid: 3/5 (this guy is meant for rush, and in raid you may want something smarter than rush)

Latro Abiectus
Play Cost: 2
Ally - Night Elf Rogue
3/2

Elusive

One of my favorite Alliance allys. For a play cost of two, you get one of the best early game monsters. His awesome stats make him essential to any rush deck. He also has the Elusive power. Elusive means that Latro cannot be attacked. Idealy, an opening in a rush deck would consist of any 1 drop [ ex: Apprentice Teep ] and Latro. Early hits of 3 from Latro really hurts.

In a raid deck, his rating would drop a little. Sure the early damage will hurt Onyixia, but he will die off pretty quickly.

I don't know how to make this CotD any longer. Just know that Latro is that good!

Sealed: 4/5 [ Great weenie ]
Constructed: 4/5 [ Great in a rush deck ]
Casual: 4/5
Raid: 3/5
 
Frost Nova Latro Abjectus

A 2 cost for a 3 atk and a 2 health is crazy good. I know a few ally rush decks with him in them. Being Elusive also makes him an even better card. Your opponent will either have to block or use a damage ability to get rid of him.

Sealed:4/5

Constructed:3.5/5

Raid:3/5
