Slow? If you are plauing tempo it is likely that you have 2-3 minions on board, so you play this and then it becomes 4/7 or 5/7... then next turn you play bunch of Rush minions and it can be 7/7 or higher...
Tempo? Warrior loses N'Zoth's First Mate, Patches the Pirate, Small-Time Buccaneer, Blood To Ichor, Mistress of Mixtures, Ravaging Ghoul, Bloodsail Cultist, Grimestreet Pawnbroker, Bloodhoof Brave, Naga Corsair, and Malkorok in the rotation.
With Cubelock losing 0 important cards (other than N'Zoth I guess but half the people I see don't seem to run that) and the potential new threat of Cube Druid coming right for us how do you figure warrior will have a viable tempo deck while losing so many important (and some admittedly much less important) cards? What warrior is getting is not enough to make it happen, trust me.
Well "Loses", question is how much they gain... it will not be Tempo warrior of old... it will be new Rush Tempo Warrior... Deck might not work out, but if it does Festeroot Hulk will be good in it.
A card that fits into aggro decks but has decent stats. Very nice.
The issue with this cards is that you need to have a decent board before playing it, otherwise it's just a 5 mana 2/7 do nothing. So if you're playing any kind of control hunter you'd rather play Alley Armorsmith which is way better.
But maybe this card has some potential in a aggro/midrangy kind of Warrior deck ? I'm not really convinced.
Why the hate ? Why everytime someone has an opinion different than the majority it gets downvoted to oblivion ?
It's because of all the scrubs that think this card has any potential whatsoever. It doesn't, and they'll see that when the expansion hits and this card does nothing 9 times out of 10.
Don't compare this trash to Gurubashi. Gurubashi is leagues better.
I think if im building a Control Warrior id rather have rotten applebaum than this.
I think if I'm building face warrior I'd rather have rotten applebaum than this.
Rush Warrior is starting to scare me a little.
Why?
They seem to have a very consistent early game.
Baku rush deck.
I guess it's not bad enough to cut all the even cards from your deck, you need to put terrible odd cards in there too right?
I find this veeery good wtf
How?
