"easily the strongest Deathknight"
lmao what?
LMAO once again just like with the Un'goro Rogue quest, the lowest rated hero card from KOFT turns out to be the most played in the meta. Shows what we know about the game...
A lot of people are saying Malfurion the Pestilent isn't as interesting as the other DKs. I think I know why...
Should nerf this cost nothing for a druid, 10 mana should be okay and reduce +3 attack to +2 attack, so much op.
So basically you want this card to be dead?
here's my recommendation for you to craft a card to counter him!
Oxford dictionary, 1 mana 1/1 battlecry: STOP FAILING ENGLISH CLASS YOU BUFFON
Stop being an asshole. My native language is not english and i am not obligation by any little kid that insult my way to comunicate. Get out my way. The game is broken, unpassion, rng fest, unskill, unpredictable. So shut up and respect my opinion. Go cry to your mommy kid.
dude, i am so sorry, i just went full grammar nazi, idk what happened there
an oxford dictionary can deal damage? how?
In my first game with this card, when I tried to play it, the animation would begin but would cancel before the choose one options appeared. I never got to play it all game....known bug or just me?
I guess you're playing on mobile, you need to wait for the animation to finish, don't touch the screen before that or the summoning gets canceled.
Compare this card to DK Guldan, and it's a joke. You get a couple pitiful minions. Guldan gets a board full of minions. You get hero power of +3 attack or +3 armor, barely better than a standard. Guldan gets a hero power of 3 damage to any target plus lifesteal! This is triple the power of the use mage power plus healing your hero for 3!
I think Guldan's DK power is OP (especially with that 6/6/6 demon that does 1 damage to all enemies at the end of every turn coming bakc through this card), and Druid's is underpowered, and the rest are fine.
Guldan's Death knight costs 10 mana and this costs 7. With druid's ramp it comes out earlier than turn 7 and lets you stabilize vs aggro. This is probably the safest death knight to craft
Thanks for your input. I have been thinking of crafting Malfurion's DK since the expansion began and now I will!
Lol I bet you feel bad now. its been a week since launch and Druid is killing it on ladder. This card might not look amazing but it's just another tool for an already good class that just pushes it that little bit further.
DK Guldan is definitely OP. But I think DK Malfurian and DK Garrosh need buffs. Garrosh needs a better Hero Power and Malfurian needs a better Battlecry, like 3 or 4 of the spiders or scarabs
It's cards like this that make Hearthstone bittersweet for me, it seems like a very good flexible card, but it's also insanely boring compared to every other deathknight... meh
Agreed. I knew this one would end up being one of the best Death Knights the moment it was revealed, but I wanted so hard for it not to for that exact reason - it's boring. All the other Death Knights are at least somewhat interesting and many of them promote new playstyles, while this is just your usual pile of stats.
Not hating on the card or anything, it's just that I wish it were at least a little bit more creative.
This will probably end up being the best DK, it gives you health, board and a good follow up hero power. At 7 mana, great card overall
