The simple answer is blizz got really lazy with development this expansion and haven’t tested anything because they don’t care about a good meta, but that doesn’t make sense.
A card like this one doesn't need any testing and it's OP on purpose. It's as clear as crystal, there is no doubt it.
I think we are on the same point. They aren’t testing anything, they are making obviously busted bonkers stuff and then “filler” that occasionally ends up busted because it’s stronger than they thought.
Here’s the QPwn theory… Mr. Smite was made to ruin the meta so that more people would play mercenaries and spend money on mercenaries so it looks like more of a success. Same reason Diablo is in battlegrounds. Follow the money…

No. This answer to too repetitive now. We cannot always think that they are ******** monkeys not able to think or test.
It is since the Descent of Dragons (with Galakrond shaman) that their behaviour is always the same. And it is: card design with pack fillers and obviously broken things to make people buy than nerf the broken things within the first 3 weeks after the release (and it is a nerf in hell that force people to craft other things).
They are not monkeys not able to test are marketers that are using a scam strategy, this is worst.
Yeah, I was being sarcastic with QPwn joke. I’m sure this is all being done on purpose. Smite will be nerfed to rush, but after everyone buys the mini set or pumps mercs sales. This is clearly deliberate.
Oh, great! :)
Glad to know my sarcasm detector didn't work and you are a sane and rational person.
Honestly, didn't want to start a pointless internet fight right now, so I was a bit worried... :P

It would still be better than Rhino if it was a warrior card because of the abundance of great cheap pirates (not just Bloodsail Raider) available and the fact that it can be generated for free from Juggernauts. Outside of that, Smite will always be superior by itself to Tundra Rhino, which needs set-up and/or buffing to even deal 6 damage in the first place.
Well I theorycrafted a DH deck that used it to OTK and that actually ended up with negative votes today, so this card must be awful!
Still need to actually test it. People are inherently negative about everything around here, it seems. How exhausting...
But I can see this guy being the absolute bane of the meta, both standard and wild, for a while. I see a lot of pirate warrior on ladder in standard already, now they can chunk 6+ free damage on you out of nowhere, woo! :D
Yeah, I saw your DH deck already and some comments about it. Honestly, it seems to have potential to me, but I need to give it a try first. I gave it a well deserved upvote already. :)
No one can guess if this card is good or bad at first sight. It's impossible!
Congratz to Blizzard for such a good job!
Sigh...
We can test it already, people, so I opened this thread for everyone to discuss the inevitable influence of this card into the Deadmines meta (Standard and Wild).
Everybody knows that the face is the place!
Oh, great! :)

Fully agree with you on that one. :)
Such a hard decision... :P
Yeah, I know... but couldn't resist picking the shiny and broken new card! :(
I deserve the worst. :P
Hahaha, yeah! XD
Guess which one I chose? :D
^ This.
You have to be kidding...
Hi, jainaishot! :) How are you?
Yeah, it is a real card. Lazy design at its finest. :(

Can a mod move this thread to Card Discussion, please? Thank you! :)
