Another RNG legendary for Warrior.... c'mon... give us weapon discover.
I feel it should be discover a weapon and equip it immidietly. So that you don't get the curse of the cursed blade.
I would have loved if Malkorok had an effect related to his raid encounter like: absorb all healing this turn or something of the like. Still good effect and stats. Glad to see Malkorok again
This is a not a bad legendary (See Anomalus from mage). The weapon can help a lot. Well... Let's see how it works in game :)
This is a good card, even if you get a bad weapon, can be played on turn sven in any situation. I think, we'll see.
turn Sven Malkorok into turn Vladimir Ragnaros

Do they have to put random on everything. I was hoping for a Tirion-esk card but alas <sigh>
6/5 cost minion is 5, this minion cost 7 = 2 manas for the weapon. You hero have 46% chance to get a good weapon, 23% chance to a 3/2 weapon and 31% chance to a bad weapon. its a medium
card
If this was discover I think it would be a great legendary. Maybe give him 5/5 stats for it, but I think this way it's just too slow compared to the other options.
If it only would be 6/7, or even 5/6
6/5 are worth 5 mana, so you are paying 2 mana in order to get a random weapon, most of them are worth 2 or more mana, so he is pretty good tempo, plus weapon sinergy
Sad. I hoped for Sha of Pride as warrior legendary.
This card coud be really good if not LoE weapon. Just above average.
I'm glad Control Warrior is getting a card to help it back to its feet.
Out of the 19 weapons available in standard, 7 weapons are in the bad category, 6 weapons are good/decent and 6 are great/amazing.
From worst to best in each category:
Bad: Cursed Blade, Charged Hammer, Light's Justice, Perdition's Blade, Argent Lance, Poisoned Blade (sharpening this with your Hero Power could be quite nice) and Tentacles for Arms (getting it back to your hand is a nice flexibility at least).
Good/decent: Sword of Justice (a bit slow if you have other weapons in hand, otherwise very solid), Storm Forged Axe, King's Defender, Fiery War Axe, Rallying Blade and Eaglehorn Bow.
Great/Amazing: Truesilver Champion, Assassin's Blade, Arcanite Reaper, Gladiator's Longbow, Doomhammer, Gorehowl.
Note: Out of all of these weapons, only Cursed Blade and Charged Hammer actually mess you up, whereas the others are anything from underwhelming to incredible. Also, 12/19 weapons are decent or better, meaning that there is a solid 60+% chance of getting value from this card, as his base stats are worth 5 mana, which in turns means that as long as you get a weapon worth 2 mana you will get what you paid for or more! Although, getting Cursed Blade or Charged Hammer could cost you the game in some cases. Against aggro Cursed Blade is a disaster, while against control it is meh. Charged Hammer is terrible after it replaces your Hero Power, which is the Warrior's win condition against many decks, so simply not spending the final charge might be the best choice (while dodging Harrison and hopefully having exhausted your other weapons earlier in the game). Looking forward to trying out this card!
Cursed blade should be in category outside of bad like -game ending terrible, especially if up against mage, hunter or C'thun
So u won't be able to get deathbite cuz is not in standard anymore?
Nope.
