Zombies can't do bonus attacks. OP stats. Make it a 5-cost? He's a Super-Rare. I mean, just like Octo-Zombie is an 8/8 with 3 traits and a cost of 8, but he's a Legendary.

In fact, rarity can also balance the power of the creature, since the rarest creatures give you bigger benefits for a lesser cost. I personally hate that argument. The only thing rarity should be used for is for highlighting ones with powerful effects, not stats. What (I think) the reasoning behind the Beastly Legendaries are is that they are SUPER expensive, so you must get an insane value back, even more than linear cost scaling would normally dictate. Honestly, after 8 cost, things start to need to be more powerful than what you'd typically think with traditional constant price-power correlations.
