This card's voice-acting accent was very unexpected.
This card is still(barely) ok, but Shield slam really should receive a mana increase nerf, to at least 2 mana, it's simply far too mana-efficient and effective.
this card is the replacement for shieldmaiden. Because warriors weren't broken enough with Justicar
Looks like the shield got looted from one of C'Thun eye during raid... Or Jeweller stuffed this pieces with "C'Thun eyes"
Nether region? ;)
When your opponent plays a C'Thun:
Brann Bronzebeard-–>Ancient Shieldbearer––>Shield Slam.
I know this is 11 mana, please don't tell me I can't count.
FIND A WAY TO REDUCE THE COST!
This + brann = 20 armor.
So auto-include.
sad this will only be viable in cthun decks.
Bloodstone Taric!
Yea, now he is gonna be so strong
GJ rito
unless they release another armor minion warriors will be forced to play c'thun.
After a while to think about it, yeah, this is the new 7 drop that warriors never knew they wanted. I figured warriors would be one of the C'thun decks anyways.
This card is insane!!! You can't even BGH this, and you usually probably would get your C'thun to 10 attack by turn 7. (just 2 battlecry minions that give +2/+2)... Shield slam will be INSANE with this card... THANK YOU BLIZZARD for making this game PAY to WIN (warrior decks are too expensive), and making hearthstone match a 15 minute game!
So what i'm F2P gamer and i have whole control warrior list . This game is not reay pay to win if you're good at it .
You don't have to play Control Warrior. The game isn't P2W and what is the problem with 15 minute long games? It are my favorite games and when I lose them I don't card because the game was funny.
15 minutes? Control Warrior? No way there's been a game under 30 minutes!
I kinda agree with you. CW has an awful lot of epics + a few unique legendaries, so it's definitely one of the more expensive decks to play. I've probably opened ~1000 packs, and I still haven't got a single shield slam. Epics are very rare.
Sure you can play Control Warrior are F2P if you really want to -- you can always disenchant all your golden cards (and maybe some unimportant legendary) and craft them. It's up to you if that's worth it or not though... Unless CW is your favorite thing in the world, it probably isn't - at least not for a F2P.
Preach it!!! (Actually, i'm very far from a free to play player, but CW is life!)
