Lol aggro doesn't really care about life. How is this gonna make you win until turn 5 xD?
It is an arena card for sure and definitely a nice one! But not really viable in ladder I guess. I'd rather deal with this than some Frothing berserkers or some Ghouls who kill my minions
People are already cutting Tar Creeper for simply being a bad card.
Great card!
Incredibly interesting card, solid stat line, nice effect that makes your opponent think. Art looks a bit blurry? But it still looks nice :D
Now this is a card!
For aggro/tempo warrior, the stats are quite good for just playing it on turn 3. You don't really care about the armor.
For control warrior, this card is the nuts. If you face against an aggro/tempo orientated deck, this card will trade well. But if you face against a midrange/control deck, they will think twice if they want to keep receiving 4 damage to the face, cuz you won't trade it. You could potentially go as far as giving it taunt with Defender of Argus. But even if, AoE effects is very common in control decks and even midrange decks, so solid chance that you will get the benefit of it.
Only against combo decks, this card feels a bit lackluster. But you can make up against combo decks with a lot of other stuff, so I would still include this card, most likely replacing Ravaging Ghoul for it with the new weapon card attached.
Good card, finally a good card. Scamaz has been summoned and he says: "OEH, THAT'S A CARD!!!".
If you have a naked board, neither Frothing Berserker nor Bloodsail Cultist is particularly good. This card is still good on a naked board.
On an already established board, Frothing Berserker is indeed quite good. With a pirate and a weapon in hand, Bloodsail Cultist is indeed the go-to pick.
Am I the only one who finds the art a little bit bad looking?
Don't bother too much about the art this time for this card, you can see the purple/epic aura even though it's a blue/rare card.
Some cards will have lower quality artwork upon first reveal, but will then have it fixed later on.
In the expansion of the blind the half-decent man is king.
Well this is an interesting card. I definitely see this being used in arena.
Tesdey Desumilde!
O que aconteceu?
Zueira só hehe
The name is bad but the card is pretty amazing. However, it might be bad design, as it doesn't really do what you want, since against control it makes aggro better as control has to answer threats but also life gain against control as aggro isn't very relevant, and against aggro it's only good if you're ahead and they are forced to trade, otherwise it has not effect.
So I guess the question is then do we really want more aggressive cards like this? If not, would it be better to make the stats less aggressive and make the card have taunt? What about giving it an ability that grants you armour at the end/start of the turn, but more armour if it dies? That way aggro players have to make the choice of whether they kill it right away on their turn and give you a burst of life, or let it live and give you less life short term but maybe more long term... Guess that's not RNG enough?
If it was if it dies during your turn gain 5 armor, and make it a 3/3 or a 3/4 it would make so much more sense... You force your opponent a position where he has to trade or you will gain life... The way it is don't fit in aggro because it's slow, your opponent will ignore it in control. It seems that it will be a card that suffer from lack of fitting... Who knows though, it could end up being a good card.
Warrior wouldn't trade with it though 9/10 so... does it make it OP?
Seems like a card that could potentially be auto-include in aggro/pirate warrior (possibly after next standard rotation)?
