lol I will be making a deck with Twig of the World Tree, Captain Greenskin and Naga Corsair, and probably even Phantom Freebooter. And I guess I might as well go ahead toss in Southsea Captain and Patches the Pirate while I'm at it. I'm extremely confident that it will be frustrating as all hell for any opponent who likes playing minions or being alive.
God bless Golakka Crawler.
Ok, so I have an Acidic Swamp Ooze in my hand. If my opponent equips a weapon, then I'll just...
Ah, fuck...
What about Phantom Freebooter ?
Already putting together a full pirate druid list! Phantom Freebooter is a 4-mana 4/8... I'll take two.
The huge tempo loss on playing it probably makes this unplayable in druid. You can't waste 4 mana on a 1-5 weapon to get a return on the investment 4 turns later. It's the same problem most quests had. Outside of some sort of malygos combo finisher, I don't see this getting any play, and any deck with an Ooze would shut down that sort of deck.
I play a ton of druid. A ton. Damn near exclusively. And I like to think I do it well.
It's not as slow as you think. It's a 2/5 weapon (hero power), and even stronger with pirate synergy. That helps make a lot value trades while you get your main strategy going.
Well, it has 5 charges and enemy doesnt want to destroy it early. You can buff it, or use charged pirates or weapon interaction minions, can do wonders with Savage Roar
Wild Pirate Aggro Druid confirmed
I wonder what the interaction with Doomerang would be with this card?
IIRC, nothing. I'm pretty sure Doomerang does not activate deathrattles.
Actually, that's a valid point: maybe Doomerang will see play after the new Rogue legendary weapon? You could play the weapon up to 5 times; twice with Doomerang and two more times after it's been destroyed with the new Rummaging Kobold.
I love getting blasted by 2 Ultimate Infestations. Or, you know, maybe Malygos and then some smaller cards that deal 6 damage for 0?
No matter how much you nerf this card, it WILL be played. Unless the 10 mana crystals DO NOT add to your maximum (Like how Wild Growth, Innervate and Pilfered Power add Excess Mana to your hand), this is by far the strongest card in Hearthstone history. And I WILL BET YOU after this card gets removed, people are going to whine "It wasn't even THAT strong" like they did with Quest Rogue. Mother of god this game is more salty than Overwatch.
I looks to me like...
=>
even if you have to use all the charges, you kind of upgrade your hero power for 5 turns as well and can choose afterwards when you want to trigger the deathrattle. Playing around this will be a bitch though because it is neither desirable to let your opponent choose the turn when he wants to have 20 mana available nor to ramp him up to 10 early on. No way to be sure yet but this card might proof to be problematic.
Who will be the first to live the dream?
Turn 2: Wild Growth
Turn 3: Twig of the World Tree
Turn 4: Coin, Innervate, Innervate, Medivh, Kun, Ultimate Infestation
Opponent turn: "I will hunt you down" into Alt+F4 into uninstall
I mean, you don't even need to do the Medivh combo, if you're in wild. I think this could literally bring back Blingtron 3000 in wild, because you've got turn 4 twig, turn 5 Blingtron, if it even takes you that long.
If Combo in Turn 4 doesn't work, you could even use Spiteful Summoner to summon a 10 minion cost drawing Ultimate Infestation
Pretty good card, considering your opponent won't want to ooze it too soon (as it would put you at 10 mana crystals). The tricky thing about this weapon is that people will need to find the right time to destroy it (on both sides).
Turn 4: [card]Twig of the World Tree[/card]
Turn 8: Medivh, the Guardian replacing weapon, proccing deathrattle, Ultimate Infestation
Results: 7/7 minion, 5/5 minion, {Random 10-mana minion} 5 armor, 5 cards, 5 damage, a new weapon, and +2 permanent mana
Oh BTW !
You forgot to throw in an additional 7/7 : Kun, The Forgotten King.
2 7/7 , 5/5 , 10/10 (y'shaarj : The Dream) , pulling out second Y'Shaarj ).
EZ Concede.
