History[ | ]
First "Rainbow" card ever created, Rainbow Breath Whelp was the very first attempt to encourage decks containing cards of each of the three existing affinities. Warmly accepted by the community, it set the base idea behind what now we call Tri-color decks, or Rainbow mechanic and becamed one of the most iconic cards in the game.
The first meta deck that included the Rainbow Breath Welp as a core card was the Ashgerdy Whelp Aggro[1], that took advantage of the Whelp's Summon effect by targeting the enemy hero and therefore gaining the 5 EXP points the Ashgerdy passive provides. Despite this is still a popular way to use the Whelp, during the weeks following the Modular Automaton Update[2] the card has been included in new mid-range or slower lists, and has also been experimented with other heroes outside the mind affinity.
Fun Facts[ | ]
- Rainbow Breath Whelp is also the first Dragon ever printed.
- The second possible version that was submitted into the subreddit had its rarity changed to uncommon and couldn't target the enemy hero.
- Many players feel like the card should have the Flying ability to better fit the flavor.
- The Rainbow Breath Whelp is also displayed as one of the charcters in the artwork of Rallying Shout.
