This card will be Ysera 2.0
The golden card has Sindragosa flying over his shoulder. lol. And spirits everywhere. Really epic animation! I wonder though how Sindragosa can fit inside of the Halls of Reflection.
Ingame, go to collection and show only golden and then search for the Lich King card and right click it to watch the animation. :-)
well ysera cards are slightly better imho... 2mana board clear, return a minion for 0, 4 mana 7/6...
Not really considering you can bring the doggy back with n'zoth and that is HUUUGe.. OOOOOr double/triple trigger it in a hunter deck. Hunter is going to be able to compete in control because of the 'doggy' in my opinion.
I would say that you could potentially get a lot of value out of Arfus because of all the Deathrattle interactions we have in wild, but now they print a card that doubles the end of turn effects so like yeah this comment is really important.
Ragnaros the Firelord died for The Lich King! Move over, there's a new Dr. 8 in town.
Seems really strong, but I was expecting something more interesting/impactfull/brutal. More like deathwing less like Ysera.
Yet still some people voted "Bad" and "Dust it". Probably just for the lolz though.
It's an 8-mana card. The effect does not exist in more than half of the current meta's matches because such a turn never comes.
I voted playable because he has taunt and it might still suffice, but I am skeptical. He wouldn't be the first, or the last overhyped big slow legendary.
At least that's what I think those voters thought when they said Bad or Dust it!. I wouldn't go as far because it's the effing Lich King we are talking about. But a card's awesomeness means very little in the meta.
I know. I just thought this is going to be the new Ysera. A Ysera that can't be ignored. There is a reason why some people call it "Dr. 8".
But then again, I've never voted "Bad" or "Dust it!" for a card before, so I might just be gullible.
This is the Iron Juggernaut, Lich!
maybe priest can "change your mind" about arfus
I don't see why this wouldn't be played it's got very a similar power level to Medivh, the Guardian and he see's plenty of play. Also the fact that you can discover this with Stonehill Defender nearly guarantees it will see play.
This card is good in a vacuum & totally nuts in taunt decks.
Hahaha love the pun!
Gives yet another neutral weapon, which actually will be used as a weapon rather than Summoning Stone
Why would they print a neutral card that's almost strictly better than Ironbark Protector, a class card (And Fossilized Devilsaur as well!)' And it's not like Ironbark was never played either. This is powercreep...
Because the Basic set is designed to be just that, a base for the designers to work off of. Every set has a better Silverback Patriarch or Chillwind Yeti with an added keyword or effect.
