Froodler, have you checked all the weapons that are being added? A lot of them either do not warrant removal(like paladin's weapon) or are unlikely to see competitive play(like shaman's). Then there's also the fact that the top classes are also the ones least likely to add one to their deck you may want to remove. Lastly it's also difficult to justify running a tech card if there is at most only one card per deck you want to counter. It would probably take weapon-heavy classes raising to the top of the meta to really make weapon removal very attractive.
Meh for all intents and purposes I think the armored guantlet was better. Just have to wait and see not sure how great this weapon will be though!
We got to wait and see how Recruit will work out.
People are underestimating the recruit mechanic when they say this weapon is bad. Just compare it to Free From Amber: you get to deal 3 damage, it thins your deck and if you're playing big warrior the minion is probably better than a random discovered 8-10 drop. Bear in mind that end of turn effects will trigger since you're not recruiting it at the end of your turn oh and, did I tell you that if your opponent doesn't have weapon removal you get to do it again next turn FOR FREE? This card is bonkers and I can't wait to play big control warrior this expansion.
Even when you get oozed, you can recruit an 8+ drop. It's not stellar, but you're not losing anything by playing this. And when you don't get oozed it really can be that good.
if the minion targeted by the weapon is y'sharrj, good lick with the ooze
if control warrior didnt play Varian Wrynn it definitely wont play this
Not really comparable... draw 3 cards vs actually a guaranteed minion... not to mention other support cards for big warrior.
Big warrior might be a thing?
This weapon has a big issue of being way too late game.
Second and much bigger issue is that you will almost never get full value out of it. Everyone is gonna keep their Ooze's and other weapon removal for the legendary weapon and this one will be toasted by oozes, esspecially since it's on a class that doesn't have any ramp.
Third issue is that if you play small minions in your deck and you don't draw there is a chance this weapon will pull it. Doing 3 dmg and pulling a Forathing Bersker just isn't worth it for 8 mana.
My predicition is that this card wont see much play, because it's just doesn't fit into warrior decks it would make much more sense as a Druid weapon.
Honestly, if you put small minions into your deck with this, you have a bag of exceeding chromosomes
2 mana 3/2 would have been better....
Gonna build a big warrior with recruit mechanics and maybe even put Prince Malchezaar just for fun
.. Just going to slide this over here..
Hi, I'm Varian Wrynn, remember all those times you saw me? No?
actually varian wrynn made an appearance in a midrange warrior of old gods , with malkorok
People didn't play Varian because he could draw you things that aren't minions. With this you are almost always guaranteed something you want.
EZ BIG EZ WARRIOR EZ WELL PLAYED EZ
