Hm. Well, +2 is just not enough to OTK, so this kill would have to happen over the course of the three turns the weapon is available for use. The issue with that is, Hunter is not exactly overendowed with card draw, especially not card draw that can fetch spells with ease, like Druid or Rogue are. So stacking up your hand with spells and burning the opponent down over a few turns just does not seem like a Hunter thing to do. That said, since you can postpone the damage for later and have all your mana available to play with, you can combine it with Auctioneer to both get some +2 spellpowered damage out and tunnel deeper into your deck for the rest of your damage. The more likely application in my eyes is just using this for the value of having your Flanking Strikes and Baited Arrows hit for more relevant damage later or, which might be a sufficient boost in and of itself in combination with the extra damage coming from the weapon. I am curious whether it works with Zul'jin, though, since you're both replacing your hero, potentially removing the spell damage effect you had on you, and Zul'jin is the one casting the spells, not you.
Flanking Strike? I don't think this card will see play in wild .
So you can compare this to Malkorok, they are both 7 mana minions Malkorok is 6/5, Vereesa is 5/6. Instead of getting random weapon you get 2/3 weapon with spell damage boost.
Wow, a real meta changer! (will never say anyone about this)
With this we have all the Windrunner sisters in Hearthstone in some way: Veeresa and Sylvanas as legendaries and Alleria as a hunter hero
I am incredibly happy to report that Huntards are officially salty because now they actually have to get a little bit creative.
I think this will only become good at the end of the year when they add enough support for it through the next three expansions.
You can attack right before playing Zul'jin so all your spells cast by Zul'jin gains Spell Damage
...and take the risk of all offensive spells, that profit from extra spell damage (Kill Command, Steady Shot, Baited Arrow) hit your face.
Worth it
Yogg loves it.
Glad to see the Windrunner sisters unite in Hearthstone finally
Oh man Vereesa! This is awesome!
They switched from "until the end of turn" to "this turn" some time ago to make text on cards shorter....
That leads into confusion. After attacking with what?
with your HERO! As the card allready says.....
He was referring to what #52 said..
Learn to follow the conversation.
I was so hyped, I was crazy hyped when I saw her, I hoped that the weapon will be amazing but that is just...is just 400 dust.The only way this card may be decent is that hunter will receive some aoe this xpac, that can be used with zul'jin, you attack and than you play zul to get extra damage but otherwise this card is total utter garbage. I HATE TO SAY THIS....trust me that I am....but mage hunter will never be a thing, or who knows, god damn....
As a creator of spell damage hunter in 2k16-2k17 I APROVE THIS CARD.(at least a concept)
