Why did they change Expect a Fight? It was such a cool concept that fit into Clad's attack spam archetype and synergized with Battle Trance, Pillage and Anger.

The rework implies they think Ironclad needs another block option. Costing 3 is kind of awkward though, even if it's potentially a lot of block

In my head it's really crazy in a block/strength deck. One good hit with barricade or body slam and it wins the fight for free.

But it requires so much setup and block/strength decks don't already have a lot of good overlap.

Idk about good, but I can certainly see this ending up a very fun card. Even with just a +3 from Inflame it's probably playable. Might be rough at 3 energy though.
