This little voidwalker is the best warlock pet around. At a cost of 3 resources, providing 1 Attack and 5 Health doesn't seem like much but when Sarmoth is in play you have possibly the best protector in the game.

Because "Opposing heroes and allies that can attack Sarmoth can attack only Sarmoth" you can gather your resources and plan ahead. This should give you at least one turn and one card draw before your opponent can remove Sarmoth from the field. Longer if you can protect him from the big hitters and force your opponent to attack Sarmoth with weaker allies. Finally after he has taken a beating you can use him to power Sever the Cord.

The only thing better than having Sarmoth in play would be to have Sarmoth and Infernal in play together, and with the Dark Portal ally Goldenmoon that is now possible. I am waiting for a chance to get this trio into play.

I can not think of any reason you would build a warlock deck without 4 of these pets included.
