Flavor Text
Flamewakers HATE being confused for Flamewalkers. They just wake up fire, they don’t walk on it. Walking on fire is CRAZY.

I play mage and have him, but damn I can't wait 'til he rotates out.
This is NOT broken and does NOT need a nerf, haters.
I don't play mage much - i respect the card, but it is no worse than sludge was, no worse than dr boom, no worse than Tirion, and not even worse than the old secret pally full combo.
No reason to call the card broken. It is a class card. players expect some OP Gold from getting a full expansion. deal with him (truesilver)
Would be better as 3 HP, dealing with this is just a nuisance.
unless they give us something to replace it, i may actually stop playing hearthstone once this card rotates out. tempo mage and handlock are the only decks i don't get tired of after 2 games and the latter has always been effectively buried to death.
I love using this card but I know it is waaaaay too OP. This is the new meta now. Every character has some OP cards nowadays.
PLEASE nerf this card for the love of the OLD GODS
-Sincerely a player who wants to stay sane.
Who can't take out a 4-health minion?
If you aren't playing 'OP' minions you aren't trying.
Didn't you realize that sludge belcher used to be a thing? That minibot used to be a thing?
I only play wild, and I don't have nearly as much trouble with Sludge Belchers and Minibots as I have with this. Imo, this card is way worse to play against.
All the classes have a few totally nuts cards.
I agree that when the flamewaker gets dropped, especially with his little girlfriend, that it is a clutch moment. But against mage I am generally more afraid of having great Board control ad getting the whole thing frozen out for 3 or 4 or 5 turns and then taking a bunch of spells to the face with no ability to stop the torture.
The flamewaker spell combos are just the mage's midrange version of zoo's or shaman's wicked-perfect openings where without two or three perfect comeback cards, there just is no practical way to turn it around. Sometimes mage will just run away with it if you can't counter flamewaker, but the same can be said about secret paladin's MC or Secret keeper combos and freezemage's bot combos and token rogues auctioneer combos. There are lots of combos where if it gets played and you don't have an answer IN YOUR HAND you will loose 9/10.
I see lots of people play waker with no spell to follow up on the same turn, and he gets killed very efficiently. E.G. if mage vs. Zoo and zoo has a good board position, which it often does.
Freeze mage is the devil when the opponent lucks into the cards he needs to freeze you out of having a chance. And there is no counter except charge or having your own face spells to finish it off. Now that silence was nerfed, people don't even run the good silence cards of old which would be the other potential counter.
"Too many portals"
Why don't they just change the name to Flamewanker at this point? Everyone hates this broken card.
Thus card is OP as hell and you have to get to the fourth area of blackrock mountain to get it.
I was always calling it a FlameWALKER before i saw the flavor text lol, well played
Fuck this card I hate it so much!
I seriously thought it was FlameWALKER for a whole year of using him.
Wait so ive been playing this game for a long time but i jsut realized this card is flameWAKER not flameWALKER. I always thought it was flamewalker lol. Wtf this is a huge revelation. Omg
Daily reminder that this card is nuts. I get at least 10 damage out of each one I play, most of the time. Sometimes even 20+ which is absolutely insane for any card, let alone a 3-drop.
This card and Knife Juggler are definitely the most rage-inducing cards in this game.
