I bet gritty headhunter's art is some old "cyber orc" drawing, that they already had, which then got a pirate bandanna. Am I the only one who feels that the team was unusually lazy with this coming season?

So let me get this straight. All the other comps are beeing reeled in and toned down but the token Pirate build which is completely toxic is allowed to remain? Someone on development loves pirates enough to allow them to dominate next season. No other tribe has a chance against that build now and it's only going to get worse.

I don't know if is me, because, I'm not very good at BG, I'm a simple player, I see small numbers and I want to make them BIG.

But, Pirates is one of the comps I play the most, and I feel they just don't have good Trinkets. Or I am terrible unlucky or there is kinda no specifict Pirate Trinkets. I know that there has to be, but I never get them nor I saw them for other players. And I usually end top 4 anyway, but I don't feel that was because of the Trinkets, as I do playing Undeads or Beasts.

Pirates are in a kind of bad position right now, the most viable build is to build something around Sky Pirate Flagbearer, and shoot lots of pirates with some way to buff them, either with Cruise Controller, Ripsnarl Captain or Admiral Eliza Goreblade. The best trinkets are Windrunner Necklace (lesser or greater) and Flagbearer Portrait. This builds in a lobby with dragons can go wild if you get key pieces early, Sky Pirate Flagbearer + Persistent Poet + Two of any "All" tribe card, and keep stacking the summon pirate buff.

Other pirate builds are pretty bad late game since they don't scale pretty well, most of pirate minions are bad outside of the cleave pirate and the flagbearer package. The cleave pirate is great in other builds where you can buff it tho, like menagerie or quilboars.
