Al'Akir the Windlord was the Elemental Lord of air. He ruled over his domain of Skywall from his seat at the Throne of the Four Winds. He was once the foremost tactician in the Old Gods' horrific armies. Aligned with the corrupted Dragon Aspect Deathwing and his fellow Elemental Lord Ragnaros the Firelord in their efforts to usher in the end of days, Al'Akir was defeated by the mortal champions of Azeroth, who were able to enter Skywall from the breach in Uldum and destroy the Windlord within his own sanctum.
Al'Akir the Windlord
Card Text
Charge, Divine Shield, Taunt, Windfury
Flavor Text
He is the weakest of the four Elemental Lords. And the other three don't let him forget it.

Curious as well :P
I always advise to not disenchant a golden legendary. Odds of getting one are ~0.07%. And you never know if it becomes viable in foreseeable future. Not to mention how mesmerizing it looks.
Depends if you have money to spare, if you are a F2P then you should disenchant and get cards you want.
Gameplay >>> Cosmetic
i would personally DE'd it
once i got golden geddon and DE'd it for dr.boom and when i really need geddon i just craft it again (which i have done too)
oh maybe if you dont need dust atm you might keep it. just remind if you really need to craft another legendary you could DE'd it
This card is actually pretty good, it has taunt/divine shield similarly to tirion, and has similar 6/6 stats. What makes this card rival tirion is the fact that it has windfury so you get to seperate your attacks and the charge can be comboed with rockbiter weapon for 12 damage.
i just popped this card yay
I just got this in golden, but i dont play shaman, should i dust it?
yea....dusted it. but played it few times haha bc it looks so cool the animation
I dusted my original a while back, but I just unpacked a gold and a gold Mistcaller, so its time to play with some Shaman
I just made a secondary account yesterday and pulled him as reward I got from the beggining quests.
Only if you really need dust immediately to craft some staple cards as a beginner. This card is the soul of shaman.
therazane the stone mother you gad dam foo :p, Neptulon, Rag, Alakir, Therazane the 4 elemental lords :p
The Earthlord "Therazane the Stonemother" haven't added yet but you can check this link for Therazane the Stonemother in WoW.
He's good but usually dies the next turn. He should be a 4/7 or something.
He is good the currently way he is. Because he's a charge windfury, you can put 2 rockbiter on him and deal 18 damage to face at turn 10. Just see him as a 8 mana Sunwalker that have charge.
I'm glad he's relevant again since he was the first Legendary I pulled.
Too bad he's not a 7 mana Overload (1) card.. c'mon..
I feel like he would be better if they brought his life up one. Would make him worth closer to 8 mana.
Blizzard on not buffing the card: we got thiiiiiisssss close to change it, but the card actually is just not apreciated enough, because when we checked our data, alakir had the biggest overall winrate in beta. Well, if it was played 20 times, and managed to win 10 games, where leeroy was played in 100 games and won 49, their logic can't be contested... in those terms, alakir is better than boom.
