So if you mounted a cannon on a whale, that creature should be considered mechanical? No.
And technically, cannons aren't mechanical. Why they made Fel Cannon a mech, I have no clue.
And that a minion in Hearthstone hasn't been designated a tag/tribe doesn't mean it's a simple creature or humanoid, no. It merely means it doesn't exist to any of the tags/tribes they've created so far. As an example; Al'Akir wasn't a simple "creature/humanoid" before Journey to Un'Goro. He was still an elemental, that specific tag/tribe just hadn't been created yet.
Okay,maybe you are right.But what about target dummy? whay its a mech?Why bonemare isnt a beast?Dead beasts arent beasts? So i think hearthsone team isnt always thinking when they are making cards.
I'm guessing Target Dummy is a mech due to it's spring, else I've got no idea :P
But I agree the devs aren't always as consistent as they should be. As you point out yourself; why isns't Bonemare a Beast?
If Bone Drake can be considered a Dragon, Bonemare should be considered a Beast.
At first I thought: well it should have way more hp, but then i realised it would be broken with bouncing blades in Wild on empty board. You can even Taurissan it and then clear the board on the same turn or use recruit mechanic and 4 mana weapon help. Seems like a fun wild deck.
wild meme? This + Bouncing Blade = 24dmg
Why exactly is this a legendary card? Is this tower super - unique in warcraft universe or something? Every other legendary card introduces specific character right?
unique for Hearthstone as i see from google results.
Blackhowl Gun Turret doesn't necessarily look like a card you'd want to play on turn 7, but maybe it's much stronger if it gets into play from Woecleaver. If you put it on the board for free at the start of your turn, you'll have lots of mana left to activate it with cards like Warpath, making that weapon swing the start of a massive AOE.
I think it's actually good in the Enrage Warrior they pushed in Frozen Throne. The Death Knight alome makes this a thing your opponent has to deal with. I personally won't be that sad when I open this.
Thats a great legendary for 5 mana!
Wait...
Ultimate Defile counter
oh boy.. the most underwhelming legendary ever.. with that, i mean the card and the fact its just a gun turret.. rip warrior
What's this from?
I just wanted to make a mem, that's it
I think it is legendary because of the combo potential of having this twice in the deck, you can play it for 6 with gather your party or for "0" with set up from last turn of woe cleaver, sudden genesis it and then start slaughtering your opponent's board and face.
If there is ever a deck, what works built around this card surviving a turn, opponent will just kill it. It's not even hard - it's a 3/8 - stats from a bad 5drop
Right but what are you killing it with? most classes have to kill it through dealing damage, and 8 health rarely goes down in 1 hit. So most of the time it actually has soft-taunt because you dared not let the opponent do whatever combo he/she has planned, and deals 6 or so damage as you take it down (plus 3 for each minion or weapon attack that it uses), and the shots might disrupt your plan for killing it by killing a minion before it attacks.
The very fact this card can be scary and is unlikely to be played unless it is going to be scary if left alive makes it quite a lot better than it looks.
DMH - the question is not only how but how many times are you killing it.
Excellent bait for removal
I'm killing it with Shadow Word Pain or with Syphon Soul.
Or even better - I don't kill it and go face, since you did nothing for 1 turn. Next turn you copy it with your manipulator - still doing nothing - and I go face again. And after that - if you are alive - you can start doing your combo.
Are you people crazy? How often you get those combos off? Like Malygos has 4/12 stats. How often does he survives a turn. Dreamers.
