Once a noble dragon known as Neltharion, Deathwing lost his mind and shattered Azeroth before finally being defeated. Daddy issues?

I have this card but I cant seem to build a deck where it fits
Best card to topdeck in the game. Especially if it's at the bottom of your deck.
Great artwork
the day i get golden deathwing is the day i quit hearthstone. or... put him in every deck i use. one of the two.
Deathwing is so Boss. Too bad he's only good when you're behind in a game
under-rated card :) This would be great in a late-game attrition war where both players are top-decking. Gets you back in the game no matter how far behind you are.
Love this card
Alarm-o-Bot summons skip battlecries. Extremely useful with this card. I got really lucky and got Alarm-o-Bot on my first pack and Deathwing on my second. If you get lucky enough, you can have Deathwing out on turn 4 with a full hand.
Some guy played this in response to me playing Gruul.
Then I drew Hogger and ...Hogger defeated Deathwing. I lolled.
no, he is a dragon
i like deathwings becuase i hate mind control same deathwing LOL!!
Was lucky enough to get a golden one in a pack I recently bought. Was the first golden legendary I have ever received and the VO when you turn it over is sweet too.
This is THE card I shall strive for!
I strived for Sylvanas Windrunner, Ysera, Black Knight, King Krush, Onyxia, Alexstraza and (insert decent legendary). Instead I got this. Uses - Being a d*ck and getting rekt because of it.
The card with the highest attack stat in the game, at launch, with a whopping 12. When this guy hits you, it HURTS.
Deathwing the Destroyer, formerly known as Neltharion the Earth-Warder, was one of the five Dragon Aspects and leader of the black dragonflight. Thousands of years ago, Neltharion was empowered by the Titans with dominion over the earth and the deep places of Azeroth. However, driven mad by the Old Gods, he turned against the other Aspects during the War of the Ancients. Among both mortals and dragons his name has become one whispered with a feeling of fear and contempt.
The black aspect involved himself in the Second War, adopting the form of Lord Daval Prestor in order to destroy the Alliance from within. He also managed to turn his greatest enemy, Alexstrasza, into a slave of the Horde, with which he later allied himself. After a series of setbacks, culminating in his defeat at the hands of the other Aspects, Deathwing retreated to the elemental plane of Deepholm to recuperate. From there, he observed his former mate Sintharia's experiments with the twilight dragonflight in Grim Batol, and later continued his late consort's work.
Though believed dead by many, Deathwing returned in spectacular fashion after the fall of the Lich King. His wrath resulted in the Shattering, which reshaped the map of Azeroth and unleashed widespread destruction; as the world reeled, he also appeared and brought flame to various regions of Azeroth. His ultimate goal was to bring about the Hour of Twilight - the final end of all life on Azeroth. To that end, he was aided by powerful allies, minions of his Old God masters. These included the warped ogre-mage Cho'gall and his Twilight's Hammer cult, the powerful Elemental Lords Al'Akir and Ragnaros, and the Neferset tol'vir of Uldum.
Uniting their powers, the remaining Dragon Aspects sent adventurers to brave the unstable paths of the Caverns of Time to retrieve the Dragon Soul, an ancient artifact crafted by Deathwing himself ten thousand years earlier and destroyed shortly after the Second War, and believed to be the only means of defeating him. With the weapon secure, the Aspects took the battle to their corrupted brother, with the orc shaman Thrall as the wielder of the Soul, now imbued with Deathwing's essence - the very essence of the earth itself. After laying siege to the Wyrmrest Temple and unleashing his most powerful minions, Deathwing took to the skies, until he was blasted into the Maelstrom by the powers of the Soul. His body at last giving way to the corruption within, Deathwing made his final stand in the raging torrent of the Maelstrom, until he was at last destroyed by the combined powers of the shaman, the Aspects, and the mortal champions sent to defeat him.
