    A weapon buff is not the same thing as direct damage (or almost-direct damage). If we imagine Deadly Poison's damage output to look like this: 2 damage * weapon durability, then we can imagine a version of this spell that does do direct damage.

    1 mana - deal 2 damage for each durability your weapon has.

    See the difference? Imagine a scenario were you want to kill a Boulderfist Ogre and you have an Assassin's Blade and a Deadly Poison. Our fake version will kill the ogre, but the real version will not. How about a scenario were you swing away the last durability of one weapon, then equip another? Our fake version will have an effect immediately, the real one won't. 

    Funny thing is, our hypothetical card reminds me of a real one: Shield Slam. Once upon a time Shield Slam was nerfed to only be able to target minions, so lets just assume that the same thing would happen to our fake card (no big deal, right?). Now we have two cards that are essentially one-mana conditional damage. But that would mean our fake card is appropriately costed! So what does that make Deadly Poison? Over costed?

    Also, Shouldn't there be cards that synergize with Combo? 

    One last thing, Blade Flurry is a harder card to full value out of then you might think. If you try to get full value out of a big weapon like a buffed Assassin's Blade, then you become vulnerable to weapon removal. And if you want to play a bunch of buffs on a Wicked Knife then use it, then that's a combo that requires some planning ahead...

     You're oversimplifying stuff. Ypur fake card could not be used to kill 4 5-health weapon used on Assassin's Blade, like deadly poison can.

    Not totally uncapable, it can kill a taunt. But yeah, I understand.

    Gyrocopter's name was changed to Flying Machine in Warcraft 3 (in the Frozen Throne expansion), s  it's still a reference to it.

     

    Oh, and Corky model copies the One in W3, as LoL is based on DotA which was originally a custom map in W3.

    If it was like that, it'd crazy in face decks. I agree this card is shit in general, but it can be in Silence decks or in combination with Argus or Sunfury.

    I guess it's not a coincidence that the very first politician card in Hearthstone is released in a expansion focused around corruption.

    Piloted Shredder was common and it was one of the best cards in GvG.

     You don't realise the extreme levels of crappiness this card reaches until you compare it to Silverback Patriarch and realise it's much worse than him.

    This can get inner fire. Lightwell is still better for that, however, as it's cheaper and comes with an effect.

    Actually, I think the legends she summons are meant to be your fears. So it kinda makes sense.

    Might be wrong, as I haven't played a lot of WoW, so I don't know the powers she has.
