after playing with this card I think its pretty useless. The hero powers are a joke and it really doesn't do anything impactful. Sure its hilarious but pretty bad imo. Maybe after a week we will see what we have to play for the next 4 months....such is the game. Blizzard seriously needs to make new modes for the game. No xpan is going to change the same ole $hit.
Um... the card is amazing. It just needs to find a deck that compliments it well. I've been running it in a strictly control style warrior. I don't use Boom for the mech synergy but the hero powers. It's insane in fatigue.
Run Bull Dozer in your deck. Not kidding it's bonkers. Also run The Boomship. 9 mana 9/7 with divine shield and rush is great. TWO of them for 9 mana and possibly a The Lich King or something its NUTTY.
After playing with Dr. Boom, Mad Genius I had way better board control than I could ever hope for, a shit ton of armor (yeah the 7 armor one likes me I guess) and an easy win, not even close, I had 30 health and like 30 armor and a board full of mechs.

did you try running that combo is dead mans hand warrior? every couple of turns you just drop 3 large minions and 2 of them trade right away.
Have you tried playing it alongside Mechanical Whelps? He curves out very well with Mechanical Whelps.
Turn 6: Whelp
T7: Dr. Boom, trade with Whelp, 7/7 has rush
OR
T7: Dr. Boom
T8: Red Button, play and trade with Whelp as it has rush, then trade with 7/7 that also has rush.
I'm floored I haven't seen anyone do this yet. Like how many turns past turn 10 do you think you'll have before you get Malygoose'd/Togwaggle'd/C'thun'd? Why are there zero threats in Warrior decks now like this is some sort of control meta? Oh, big deal, you can take care of Shudderwock with Azalina. Who gives a crap, exactly?
Dr. Boom is silly but is a hefty amount of armor gain and a useful hero power in drawn-out matches. It helps win long games against other midrange/tempo decks, much like FLJ. But why on EARTH are people playing him as if he belongs in a t15+ control shell lol.
Sometimes you'll draw him, sometimes you won't. Deal with it, y'all! Stop building your whole deck around one hero like it's the next Shadowreaper Anduin! It's a good card; just play it if you draw it!
Dr boom is awesome. Only problem is totally random hero power. The one game I played so far with it I kept getting the 1 damage to all minions and my oppoenent kept throwing out 4/4 5/5's.
While i don’t agree Dr.Boom is lame, i can see him not being used in upcoming Control decks.
The Odd heropower is really great vs burst decks (Malygos) , and Warrior can cluster otherwise some value together, even Firebat didn’t played him yesterday in his Control deck at Omnistone.
But i also think he s well designed , and not so polarized and impactful as Jaina and Guhldan are.Wich is great , because once the DKs rotate out every class should obviously be as balanced as possible.
The only thing that might shut him down after the next rotation is Blizzards latest passion for OTK decks...

You can always disenchant it for 400 dust if you don't like it.
Hey all F2P players out there! Try out my 100% free deck before trying to call this game pay to win!!!
No. The card is very strong. A staple in every warrior deck unless they they have better use of garrosh.
Dr. Boom is like THE control card for warrior, he offers so much value its insane

Is this a joke?
the joke is to revive this thread after over a year of nothing
