Welcome to the hall of trash lock legendaries, this card rivals bolvar except that its worse. Well played blizzard, i really hope there are some good warlock cards in the expansion to make up for the endless unplayable legendaries the past year.
This card is a pretty crazy card. It makes concept of discarding, a way to gain more health. As you know, Warlocks quest is to discard cards. If you can complete this quest then the blood queen will already be a 7/6 for 5 mana. 5 mana. Plus, if you play Deathwing when you have a full hand, then you draw blood queen, YOU HAVE A 12/12 AND A 11/6 ON THE BOARD WITH LIFE STEAL. That would lock the game for you. I probably will craft it when the expansion comes out so I will put a link to my warlock deck with the blood queen.
Discard warlock
Too many "If" to be competitive.
Why does the discard need to be random? Come on Blizzard, print some non random discard effects if you really want to push the archetype.
this card does nothing to help the archetype
There are still 9 unrevealed warlock cards, maybe some of theme will be great.
I'm discouraged from my personal achievement to craft all warlock legendaries.
Too bad she's not the only card you discarded.
Worst expansion so far
9 cards revealed out of 135, and you can unequivocally say it's the worst expansion? Dayum, what a valuable input.
That's a good idea dude.
While I was reading it I thought you were going to say "Choose which card will be discarded", less powerful but maybe another possible mechanic.
dislock need some interact with discarded card.
I really hope that there will be cards to discover discarded cards and spells with +1 dmg for each discarded cards of any sort that can make discardlock playable consistently.
Dude... I was hoping the (stupid) discard mechanic has found its end during the last expansion. Discarding means random shit. Random shit on your side while playing a control deck is like losing control. It even can be discarded as well. The Hero Warlock Legendary has to be awesome now!
they well make a add a random discarded card to your hand or deck maybe even two mark my words. could even be the hero power
Sounds horribly possible. Good thoughts! After all we have Jaraxxus as one of the coolest Heroes in the game. :)
Even if discardlock becomes viable with the help of some unrevealed cards, it's still not good design. Discarding cards at random is not fun. And why do I craft 3 legendaries for such a boring deck?
So you need to discard at least 3 4 cards just to make this decent .
Wow.
in before it happens. mark my words they well have an add random discarded card 1 or more to your hand or deck or an add cards you discarded last turn back to your hand at the beginning of next turn. minion card or could even be a buff spell
I disagree with the "decent" statement. a 4/6 which has lifesteal for 5 mana is actually crazy good. 5/6 with lifesteal is insane.
I think you need to discard 2 cards to make this "good" or playable. But the fact this card is good/playable/insane is not the point... the point is that it relies on having a trash deck.
