I dont care what anybody says but, the voice sucks. its not even inch close to the og leeroy jenkins.
You're not wrong, it's like they got a middle-aged frat-dad to record lines on their iphone while watching the big game. Sucked so hard. og Leeroy has that deep baratone, should have just paid the real leeroy to do it

What a well developed, meaningful, and impactful response. I don't know what this thread would've done without it. OP never said they purchased the skin, way to miss the point.
On a separate note, I absolutely agree. It just seems like a disrespectful cash grab in my opinion. Hearthstone 4-5 years ago wouldn't have done this. Also, couldn't have said this better myself:
I saw this thread and thought to myself "it can't be that bad". As a Paladin main (essentially) I bought it, and boy oh boy, it's bad. Like, you couldn't even find a guy who impersonates the original voice? they didn't even try! I still like it though, I like the hero power effect and the art itself, but yeesh.
I'm gonna save the pally packs for next expansion. That should work right? make them the first packs I open when the new set launches.

I watched the video of it in use with all the emotes just to judge for myself, and you're right the art, the card back - the le package totale - is overall pretty good.... BUT, what does everyone remember Leeroy for? It's that line, the "Leeeeeeeeerrrrooooooy Jeeeeeeeennnnnnkiiiinns" line - in that Leeroy Jenkins voice. You can probably play with the sound off (that's how I play HS 95% of the time, since it's mostly on my mobile), but there is such a lost opportunity to really showcase something that was a huge cultural moment for Blizzard, and they just shat all over it like they do so many things! Uggh, so mad right now - what a waste!

I mean he still looks pretty neat and if you main pally its good to get some change in every once in a while. I am still sour from not having got the Cyber or Flame-Uther when they were out so another character is always nice.

Lul, actually taking the time to comment this.

I would never get that one tbh, if I have the 1000 win skin I always use it. I also always try and use a horde character if I can. Loktar Ogar :p
