Is the art supposed to be a lore figure in WoW? I can't think of any Dark Iron Dwarves that dress that way.
Who knows, definitely my least favorite art of the expansion.
All about those deathrattles and having enough of them so this works fairly decently most of the time.
Wild has some OP options for this.. Argent Horserider, Ragnaros the Firelord, and Sneed's Old Shredder
well I suppose 6 mana Malygos or Prophet Velen is more likely to be usage of this, but then Barnes is better, but unlike Barnes you can run 2 copies of this, and it is also affected by spell cost reduction... But it still has to be not heavy on minions deck, but then Eternal Servitude is better, just let you big guy die and resummon it from afterlife for just 4 mana (that is if he didn't become a Frog or a Sheep)
Eh...not gonna lie, I am not impressed. If I wanted to have this effect in my deck, I'd rather run Barnes.
Nice card. Kinda reminds me of Holy Fire in an a more combo oriented way though.
Think of the possibilities! Combined with Herald Volazj, you can summon a 1/1 copy of your 5/5 copy, copy the 1/1 with Mirage Caller, resurrect it with Eternal Servitude and Onyx Bishop, get it again with Barnes, then concede and delete Herald Volazj from your deck.
what the hell lol THIS CARD IS TERRIBLE!!!! so it's a 6 mana 5 5????? I cant honestly think of 1 minion in the game thats worth more than 6 mana that would benefit from having 5 5 stats..... And thats if you get perfect rng! Why would you ever play this lol?????
Argent commander is pretty good as a 5/5.
Emperor Thaurissan is a 6-mana 5/5 and he was a pretty good card though :^)
Of course a minion with better stats than a 5/5 has it's stats lowered when it's summoned as a 5/5, but it's also summoned at a lower cost, getting Ysera for 4-6 mana instead of 9 is a fairly big swing, duplicating a Northshire Cleric nets you a strong minion with a strong effect fairly often. Worst case scenario is you pull a battlecry minion and get a vanilla 5/5.
Sure it's not on the same level as shit like Dr.OP but it's hardly ''TERRIBLE!!!!'', there are quite a few ways to get some use out of this card, let the meta settle before you knock it for having a sub-par statline.
Gotta try it at least once
My first idea for this card. op "Angry chicken"
well just feel your deck with good deathrattle minions or ongoing effects... 5/5 Northshire Cleric here I come...
Lul now i can have triple barnes in my deck
Pretty good
RNG op please nerf :D
