So guys I read a lot of comments in here which said that Golakka Crawler will be a Totem Golem for Pirate Warrior, so I listed some pros and cons indept for this card to check if they might be right.
Pros:
Better against AoE
Decent in the Mirror Match
Cons:
Worse against Single Target Removal
Heavy dependant on a cheap pirate in the early game
A 1/1 and a 2/3 trade better in with weapons than a 3/4
No good replacement for Finley or Bash which rotate out
no good tempo card in general
It is a Beast
So as you might see I don't think this card will be that good in Pirate Warrior, maybe as a one off for the mirror to kill the 2 and 3 Mana Pirates. It will not be as good as Totem Golem. The reason why Totem Golem was so hated and also better than this card was Thing from Below, Tunnel Trogg or the Healing Totem.
What do you guys think? I am sure people will try it out, but i don't think it will be any good.
Still a good two-drop beast, but no Totem Golem for sure. It will see play as long as Patches also keeps on shooting away from the right of the screen.
It's the same reason why people don't play a Hungry Crab+Murloc Tinyfin combo. Even if there are a lot of pirates on the ladder (which there probably won't), this card doesn't really seem to do enough to slow down pirate decks. It's really not a good card, and it's worthless against anything that's not aggro.
it's the false equivalence that bad players think ,oh I'll eat my pirate and get a totem golem. I think people will find out that those who play against it will get destroyed. I think crawler is best in hunter because a 2/3 is still fine with huntMaster, plus hunter sucked against pirates in general
it's only really good against pirates if you're trying to race them, otherwise they can just ignore the 3/4 body and go face
if pirate warrior is still tier 1, i think golakka crawler will still see play in pirates; the same way that current pirate warrior decks play double bash to farm other pirates

At best, it has zero value when used on your pirate. You lose your 1/1 pirate (and the pirates synergy), and buff your minion to 3/4. Hungry crab give a bit of a value, and it never see any play.
It will never see play in pirate warrior deck (no aggressive value). Probably won't see play at all (maybe in control decks as a pirate counter, maybe in tournament when the value is more likely).

Ok. You have a point there. In a full Pirate Warrior deck it has some drawbacks.
I'll try it in my hunter decks as counter, and check if it works in some water aggro decks in some way. Or in a more midrange warrior.
This is not going to be run in Pirate Warrior and people who think it will be have probably never been above Rank 10. Even if you did want to side against the mirror, Acidic Swamp Ooze is better for that purpose.

You are right people who rate cards in hpwn are generally wrong they just find a "synergy" no matter how bad it is and start spamming it..
Only good in mirror matchs really ghis is a hate card we need NOW not after the expansion..

Hearthstone is a game of "copy and pasting"
What i forgot it, that this card on turn 2 is also bad when you can't enemy 1/3s

Vvreeeew.

or the new Armor Ooze which is better than the normal Ooze
I don't get why it being a beast is a con?
