If Elemental Rogue/Warrior ever becomes a serious thing this card could actually see play. Otherwise, this becomes a 5/5 if a weapon is destroyed on the turn it's played. This doesn't compare much to rogue's more powerful combos and Pirate Warrior is nerfed pretty hard right now, so it'll probably not see much competitive play. Seems like a less costly and somewhat worse Furnacefire Colossus which doesn't seem much play right now either
What the f...? It's been month and a half and i've just found out this card for the first time. I don't remember opening it, i don't remember playing against it. So trippy.
Why would it? The weapon isn't destroyed.
It does remove it but i'm pretty sure it deosn't count as breaking it since it returns to your hand.
Insurance companies have open shop by the Frozen Throne! Check a couple of their policies:
Seriously, what'll be next? 4 mana x/y ,+1/+1 for every spell you try to cast but gets countered, or maybe for each of your secrets eaten?
2 Mana 1/1 pirate for every pirate eaten by crabs gain +2/+2
Expect for the obvious synergy with the rouge hero power, If you are a low-budget pirate warrior and your hand is flooded with N'Zoth's First Mate and weapons.. you could buff it with them.. even +3/+3 in the same turn.. but it still doesn't feel strong enough or viable for serious builds to me.
Thanks for your attention! Didn't try rouges at all since the expansion (Didn't craft Valeera for miracle rouge).. Mill rouge winrates are very low; Tempo rouge is mostly worse than Token Druid or Pirate Warrior, unless you have a new breaking meta build for these archtypes. Barnes Rouge hmm.. You spawn Malygos and go beserk?
Not bad for Rogues at least, it can pretty reliably be a 4-mana 5/5 at least. Looks like an Arena card otherwise.
How many times realistically speaking are you going to destroy your weapon before this minion gets killed?
probly just once so yeah... not that good imo.
Elemental Rogue? Can't imagine this in an Elemental Shaman deck. Meh overal.
I just tried it out in an elemental rogue deck (it had Prince Keleseth and Plague Scientists in it too to make use of the 1/2 elementals) and it was actually pretty solid. The deck as a whole got me to rank 10 without much trouble, and this card was a nice 4-mana [often 5/5] curve play which flows into Servant of Kalimos without the usual awkwardness/situational turn 4 plays of other elemental decks.
I don't see it working anywhere outside of rogue though since other classes can't destroy their own weapons conveniently.
This is an arena card, and its pretty mediocre...
