I'm excited to see a pirate card. Sure this isn't overpowered or something like that, but it might see some use in warrior decks. But the best part is that it's a buff to a much weaker deck. (high pirate warrior). And while that may not seem like too big a deal, anything which buffs weaker decks and brings them closer to on par with the current high tier decks is great.
Turn one N'Zoth's First Mate turn two double Upgrade! . But in all seriousness, at the moment this card isn't good for warrior at all, but it might see play if some kind of aggro/pirate warrior becomes a thing.
This is obviously a 10/10 in arena but I don't think it's too bad in constructed either. it's essentially a 1 mana 1/1 deal 1 since turn 2 you are playing fiery war axe most of the time. If you only use one charge it's still good since you can ping off 1 health creatures played on turn 1 and trade evenly with 2 health 1 drops. Even if you don't draw into fiery war axe right away you still have a weapon. It's just very versatile imo
I like this one. This can boost for your early damage spells like slam, cleave. I think this is much better on midrangey type of warrior like Patron. But not sure if it still alive because death's bite is such a key piece. Aweseme in Arena!

Yes, a 3/5 Weapon that only cost 3 mana, 3 Cards, and next round: That belongs in a Museum with Coin + Innervate.
And i don't believe in any Pirate-Deck, as long as Pirates doesn't get any meaningful synergy. Pirates are sadly not Murlocs that have a good synergy.
now that Nzoth has been revealed to care about death rattles, why is this guy his first mate when he has no death rattle synergy to offer? Seems a poor choice of names vs a generic first mate in warrior, when cthun minions and the other Nzoth minions have such direct mechanical synergy with the god.

Because N'Zoth the Corruptor is the only ocean dwelling Old God so he needs a first mate that can be useful right away. He can't wait for them to die. That takes too long and N'Zoth is a busy guy
If this card is good for triggering Execute, do you think this means Arathi Weaponsmith might be viable in CW ,because the 2 damage axe she summons is also good to ping for Execute?

I wouldn't say so, just because it is too expensive just for the Execute value. However, it is already seeing play in Reno/Midrange warrior decks as it provides alot of value for a (4)-drop. N'Zoth's First Mate will definetely be a welcome addition to both Control Warrior and Reno.
Solid card. Doesn't fit any current deck type in constructed, and most likely never will. Best 1 drop in arena for any class maybe?
Pretty decent for aggro warrior, if there is one.
Also makes Cursed Blade worse....
N'Zoth will buff a 1/1 minion that is my guess!

Why are people calling everything shit? This card is actually really good.
- Provides tempo for tempo/face warrior.
- Generally able to take out a (2)-drop
- Activator of Execute without wasting alot of resources (leaves you with a 1/1 and a 1/2 weapon and kills an enemy minion for 2 mana.)
Especially with Death's Bite gone I think this card will put in a lot of work.

In a vacuum it's really good value. The question is whether there are other cards in the set to make a viable archetype that can make use of it.
Face warrior happy, me smash face.
i wish this was instead a rogue card, so they can be more aggressive instead of wasting turn 1 passing, and turn 2 equipping a dagger
what a perfect card for warrior arena.
Time is money, friend.
I just realized that this card exists to give Warriors a fighting chance against Midrange and Control Paladin. Nice.

A lot of people are saying that this should be on rogues. This will be op on rogues, 3/3 weapon with deadly poison on turn 1 with coin, or turn 2.
