Guitalex2008 just made a post about previously overlooked cards that are in the new standard. In an effort to not derail his thread, I just figured I'd make a new one about Distracting Taunt specifically.

What do you all think of this card?

Personally, I want to like it, but I'm not really sold on it for two reasons. For one thing, it has the words I hate to see most on any reduction card: minimum 1. Secondly, if you're opponent is playing a statistically sound deck and not going for any block antics (as they could have done previously in a Chain of Command deck), they're not likely to have a ton of high block modifiers. It's sure doesn't help against Menuett Dance, Midnight Launcher, or Knight Breaker to name a few.

So, does anyone maindeck this card? How many of you sideboard it?

In an old Siegfried deck, I had three in the main. No more than that.

It'd one of the few damage reduxs we have access to.

Iuno, I have a Life Yi Shan deck built that uses D-Taunt with either Repentant Hero and/or Iron Body (no damages!)

It's...blah. It's kinda necessary, but block modifiers on attacks are really small =/
