Golden Version:
You're basically spending 8 mana, to stop 10 on-coming damages. The damage can be anything from a Ragnaros Fireball or a Mage Hero Power ping. On average I think this weapon can give you pseduo-immunity for 2-3 turns if you're not too behind on the board. What do you guys think?
Most people end up using Harrison quite early around Turn 5-6 to kill their opponent's Death's Bites/Truesilver Champions, so I think this might live. Even if they do use Harrison they pretty much just milled themselves. :P
8 mana for a 0/10 weapon. Exactly how is that overpowered? If you're behind on the board, this won't help you at all, just delay the inevitable. Can give aggro decks a tough time, if they fail to kill you by Turn 8 (which often doesn't happen), and even then they can tech in Acidic Swamp Ooze to get rid of it.

It's definitely OP
Then what do you think would be a good way to nerf it?
I think putting a Neutral weapon is a horrible idea since Hearthstone is based on the World of Warcraft universe and over there you don't see priests and mages running around with a sword, just like hunters only have bows as weapons.
If you want to implement this card don't make it a weapon but rather a minion. Maybe 8 mana 0/10 stealth. Whenever your hero takes damage deal 1 damage to this instead. Imune to all spells and hero powers by both players. I'm not saying it's is a better idea but i really dislike the Neutral weapon concept.
Have you ever played WoW? No offense, but mages/warlocks use swords too (staves, daggers, swords and wands), it isn't only warriors, rogues, paladins, etc. stuff. And hunters can use many more weapons apart from bows :/
On topic, maybe a bit OP, could have less durability, or whatever. Anyway, not a really big fan of the concept, too "passive" in my opinion, and against some decks that rely on just a few but hard hits as a win condition it would be almost auto-win if they don't have Ooze/Harrison D:
Honestly i dont like this card's design at all, sure its powerfull, but all this would do is to put Ooze/harrison in every deck and then this card would be the worst 8 drop ever :F

That's just how the meta shifts in my opinion. A good card comes by--- people start to counter it. Then it becomes unpopular and decks return to normal, and repeat. :P

I think it should be a bit more balanced now. For 8, it's a 1/6. Only prevents 6 damage, but has an emergency-ping attached.
