Strategy
Ideally the goal in playing a Starving Buzzard is to then summon other beast minions, causing you to draw as many cards as possible for maximum efficiency. The Buzzard should be protected if possible, as it is a high priority target for your opponent, especially in the early game. A great combination to set up with Starving Buzzard is to put it out as bait when you have no creatures on the field and your opponent does. Then play a Snake Trap. If your opponent tries to attack and kill your Buzzard, the trap will activate first, allowing you to draw a total of three cards before the Buzzard actually dies.

During the game`s alpha The Hearthstone alpha was the alpha test phase in the development of Hearthstone. The alpha test presumably ended on Aug. 16th 2013, when Hearthstone began its closed beta testing phase in the Americas region. An , Starving Buzzard only triggered from Beasts played from the hand, but was changed to trigger from any Beast summon, due to a preference to keep the function of basic The card set interface Card sets are categories into which collectible cards are divided, reflecting how they can be obtained, and determining whether they are eligible for use in Standard format. Card set does not cards relatively simple. This significantly increased the range of combination plays, helping the Buzzard to become a key card in the hunter`s arsenal. Be that as it may, it also had the effect of restricting future design space. Because the Buzzard now triggered from any Beast summoned, the designers had to consider carefully the ramifications of introducing cards which summoned multiple Beasts, even 1/1s.
Due in part to this change, Starving Buzzard became a very powerful card, especially in combination with Unleash the Hounds. During mid- beta The Hearthstone beta was the beta test phase in the development of Hearthstone, following the alpha test. The beta test began in its closed phase in the Americas region on Aug. 16th 2013, and in , the card was changed from its previous stats of 2/2 to a 2/1. This was explained as being in order to make the minion more easily removed by the hero powers of druids, mages and rogues, balancing the match-ups between these classes and hunters, but also served to make the minion more vulnerable in general.
In Sep. 2014, the card saw its most drastic changes yet - from a 2 cost 2/1, up to a 5 cost 3/2.

While the developers generally prefer to solve balance issues through allowing the meta to right itself, or introducing new cards, in this case it was stated that the "back-end stats" justified direct changes to the card. In an official announcement, it was stated that the changes were intended to allow the opponent "more time to react to both the Starving Buzzard and the cards drawn by its power."
