Is he swinging a seven iron?
Flavor text should be “Fore!”
It has to overkill something twice to get to any crazy power level (a 7 mana 10/10 (minus health lost from overkilling something) after a one turn delay is not nearly game-breaking) which means you only get big value if you're able to attack with it three turns in a row in the late game. That will almost never happen.
If you want faster value from it it requires a 2+ card combo involving cards which buff attack (Windfury, Rockbiter Weapon, Blessing of Might, Cold Blood) but then it's a multiple-card, 7-10 mana combo that still usually requires at least a one turn delay before you see any big value (and that value is dependent on there being a thing or multiple things on board to overkill). Other classes are winning the game with multi-card, 7-10 mana combos.
I think it will be massively too slow, clunky and inconsistent to see any play. Its best bet imo is as a one-of in odd rogue with Cold Blood to give the deck more late-game power, but I'm not convinced.
Edit: ooh, I saw someone mention Boomship warrior. Now that sounds fun. But with this I think it would feel too bad not to summon it from Boomship, so every time you didn't hit it it would be almost a dead card in hand/deck, so I'm still pretty unsure.
Captured Jormungar was already a pretty good arena card. The upside is complete Overkill.
I swear if someone says odd...
I swear I didn't even think about it!
Odd priest?
Solid stats, good effect. May be even viable for constructed.
fun and bad, it's like Stormwatcher (4/8 windfury elemental for 7 mana).
Maybe Priest could use this with Topsy Turvy?
10 health isn't *that* easy to remove and Priest could heal it or something.
I want to play windfury cards on it.
strongest arena card in this expansion so far
Nice big body for arena, sloppy 7 drop for standard too slow to see overkill effect pay off
Strong card for arena.
Odd Boomship Warrior?
Wow that was late
Seems plain out too slow.
