double worgen charge injured and in your face lol
You'll just get a regular worgen to your hand tho...
Echo of Medivh
Outta ideas already
You mean like how Mortal Strike is just a copy of Fireball?
Or Arcane Blast is a copy of Holy Smite and Arcane Shot? Or Captured Jormungar is a modified Core Hound?
Or Bash is basically any of the 2 mana deal 3 damage cards, but modified to fit the warrior theme the same way Blood Warriors was?
I've got more examples, but my point is that blizz can make cards similar to others. Not every class card has to be unique.
And this one is realy cool flavour wise... you use the blood of the minion to make more of them
Patron loses Death's Bite and Unstable Ghoul though, which is kinda huge. with the new ghoul you need at least 8 mana to get going. And you need emperor shenanigans to even play them on the same turn with blood warriors. If you can't deal with patrons right away you're dead anyway, so having them fill up on patrons next turn after you can't deal with them... meh.
Blood? Jelly! ^w^
What?
I don't want to be this person but.. Since everyone discussed the card, let's talk about the art.
An orc warrior entire blood system is drained out from his body to forge another warrior.
This is sick!
I don't play warrior but If I got a golden version of this.....
death bite is gone i dont think this card will see much play if no 0 cost activator is released
Whirlwind
Inner Rage
Revenge
combo would at least need 6 mana to do the same thing with out death bite
Combing this requires you to have at least 8 mana to do so. and i think its too slow. not to mention you need to battelrage as well
Echo of pissed off Patrons
I like the artwork, but is the entire orc army wounded before battle? Blood warriors or not, that is not the most effective plan.
Honestly I think it's impossible to directly compare to Echo of Medivh, since they belongs to different classes (same for Frostbolt and Darkbomb, etc.) If we have to, we can try to compare them in the economy context of their classes.
In this case I think this card is even better than Echo, because the activation condition it's a very fair price to pay 1 mana less. Damaged minions are not a problem in warriors, there is already a synergy so we don't have to alter warrior deck mechanichs in order to play this card (unlike mage who has an "echo mage"). Moreover, this card is more selective, if you play a control deck and have almost full hand you can manage what to copy. Lastly, 1 mana less allow you to enlarge or anticipate combos, till 7-mana minions.
Dreaming about it, an aggro warrior who copies Arcane Golems or Kor'kron Elite damaged by Inner Rage or Cruel Taskmasters...
So... to gain card advantage you have to copy at least 3 minions. Unless you can trade in such a way you don't need a Whirlwind effect as an activator, in which case 2 minions is enough.
Doesn't matter. Most of the time you just want a specific minion anyway.
Egg warrior :)
Except it's obviously A LOT worse than Echo of Medivh...
