He was this close to piloting a massive juggernaut into Stormwind Harbor. If it weren't for those pesky kids!

I agree with you on the last part, I would never craft him, I just received him yesterday. :) I also agree with you on playing arcanite reaper + upgrade. But I found several decks that uses Captain greenskin, so I am testing him to see if I find him valuable. If not I might DE him, either now or at least when the meta changes and pirate rotates out. :)
I'm kinda sad I dusted him as I was so excited when I got him, but I needed the dust for N'zoth. I just hope one day we'll get a Pirate themed adventure so we can finally have some decks where he's viable in.
Glad I didn't dust this guy 6+ months ago when I opened him up.
Proof that you should never dust any legendary, you never know what kind of metas will materialize with the introduction of a new expansion.
As someone said earlier, this guy has insane synergy in a pirate-centric deck. The value he gives is awesome considering hes a 5/4 body + weapon damage(+1). Can be argued to be better than Malkorok simply because he's 2 mana cheaper, and his buff is consistent.
Still keeping this card, maybe there will be a legit pirate deck on next expansion/adventure
there is one right now...
Good card, but not worth putting in your deck.
A solid "meh."
nice pirat
I pulled golden version and am dusting him for whatever I need after standard drops. Hope he isn't the next big thing.
Just crafted the guy to gain 2x useless parrots :3 (before it's too late)
sorry, why would it be late?
They will remove the pirate quest
Could you provide any link? Will they remove murloc's as well? i thought they'd only delete naxx and gvg
It's been 800 dust for me so far, but now from gadgetzan i'm almost started to regret it, but not yet
In terms of stats, this is an Upgrade attached to a Lost Tallstrider. That's kind of nice. The value is 5 mana, and you save a card on playing the two individually, and it's a neutral card.
Handy rule of thumb: The total amount of damage you get from this guy's battlecry is equal to the attack of your weapon plus the durability of your weapon plus one.
does anyone even use pirates? maybe GT will make them a viable minion class.
naaaaaaaaat
I got a golden Captain Greenskin out of a pack. I now have a regular Dr. Boom instead. The good captain is largely pointless - a sub-par body with a smallish and rather situational upside.
same here.
Got also a golden one and crafted sylvanas.
maybe i keep kegendaries like Captain Greenskin when i have the "good" ones.
you're going to be really sad when pirate rouge becomes a tier 1 deck someday
