So we were wondering, now that we've seen all the weapons, which Legendary Weapon do you want the most?

I say Skull of Man Ari.
I'm excited for Rhok'delar honestly. The idea of a minion-less deck is awesome. Truly a new archetype for the class and a far cry from the same bland shit we have been seeing.
Hey, props to you for looking at things on the brighter side, and being open to experimentation.. I too will try and make it work.
I 100% agree and also voted for the Hunter weapon. Yogg'n'Load Wild here I come! With all the new support the archetype will be completely revived.
Same. Will try it and I will cry of joy! So exited!
The effect is really cool, however I think that it, along with To My Side! are way too expensive. Because of you having to build your deck around those cards, they should 6 and 5 mana, respectively. In their current state they will be fun memes, but pretty bad.
If Yogg, Saron is the 30th card in your deck you are guaranteed to lose.
[card]Twig of the World Tree[/card] & Kingsbane are hands down going to be the best weapons in this set.. I can't wait to see these 2 weapons in actions.
It's going to be fun!
none of them. lol *edit* ok fine Val'anyr because i love value
Check out my thread to vote on what minion you are hoping to get from KaC!

Though it's not the one I want most, if I rolled Woecleaver I'd at least give the high-roll recruit warrior thing a good try, could be fun.
I've always had a knack for pulling random clunky minions and legendaries (I've seriously pulled two of The Boogeymonster) so it'd fit my luck, anyway.
The playable ones will be the ones that give value immediately, or on deathrattle, because there are going to be a ton of weapon removal cards being teched in this upcoming meta. Harrison Jones is drooling.
I firmly believe that Twig of the World Tree will be the most underestimated card of this set.
Turn 4/5/6 - Twig of the World Tree
Turn 7 - Medivh, the Guardian (breaks Twig) + Ultimate Infestation
Result - 7/7 minion + 5/5 minion + 10 mana minion + 5 armor + deal 5 damage + draw 5 cards + Atiesh
Freakin ultimate infestation + lots of extra goodies on turn 7. Seems pretty meta defining to me.
Ps. I also believe that Val'anyr will be the most overestimated card of this set. Waaaay too slow.
How is it way too slow? You are just paying 2 mana more over Truesilver Champion and you reequip it if your buffed minion dies. Get this on Doppelgangster or Saronite Chain Gang and you will get extra 4/2 hand buffs back because the weapon will replace itself and the deathrattle will go off.
You don't even have to have Doppelgangster in your deck. Just the constant 4/2 hand buff and reequiping the weapon for free until silence or lack of minions in your hands is a great value.
Compare it to Hammer of Twilight, which is never used and arguably one of the worst weapons in the game.
Val'anyr costs one mana more. You first have to swing it 2 times, then play the buffed minion, then the buffed minion has to die. So it probably takes about 3 - 5 turns before it's even better than the Hammer. And being better than Hammer of Twilight is not much of an achievement.
Edit: + countered by Psychic Scream, Hex, Polymorph and silence. And you must always have a minion in hand when it breaks.
Hammer of Twilight is not bad either. It just didn't find its place in Shaman.
You don't have to wait all the way until your buffed minion dies. You already getting board impact as you equip Val'anyr and swing for 4 damage. How is this way too slow? There isn't anything forcing you to play the buffed minion either.
Or with malygos...
You can add Kun for an extra 7/7 LOL
My sincerest sympathy in advance for everyone who gets the hunter or shaman weapon.
