Holy shit this is busted, it buffs the weapons as well as the minions. And you could shadowstep to play it for 4 mana the following turn. It’s a solid board clear as well as potentially 8 face damage from the two weapon swings
This card’s design is neat and by no means bad. However, it doesn’t help Quest Rogue, has nothing in common with Thief Rogue, and Poison Rogue needs to keep its Swinetusk Shank. Its effect isn’t even meme material, so I don’t know what I’d do with it if I opened one.
It seems simply a tempo card for a tempo rogue. If he will have other cards.
Tempo Rogue
I‘m not sure if it‘s enough for wild, as I only play wild. Hope so much for a good, fast and funny rogue deck, such as oddrogue was. All other roguedecks I have most of time a very bad luck in drawing the right cards at the right moment.
It is not for wild. Turn 6 you can close the game in wild. But every colossal is far too slow for wild. This is like a new Jandice in my opinion. A good tempo card but nothing crazy.
As a resident rogue meme master, this card is pretty straight forward. A few things I see at a quick glance are interactions with cards like Potion of Illusion and Sonya Shadowdancer, since only the main body would lose stats, Shadow of Death since colossal minions work the same when summoned from effects, a Bamboozle hit since you can kill off its claws and its body will have outlived most of its usefulness, and the most practical synergy being Cutting Class which would be dropped to 1 mana while having a big tempo swing on the same turn.
It's so good. When you read this as "6 mana 6/5. Battlecry: Deal 4 damage twice." But you can swing with the first, swing with the weapon, swing with the second, get another weapon.
This answers so many board states while leaving you with a 6/5 and a 2/1 weapon for the following turn.
Have the weapon +2 damage as well? Or only the minions (or only the weapon?)?
Nice question. I think both the weapon and the minions.
I believe both minions and weapons have +2 attack until Crabatoa is alive, i may be wrong but we gonna figure it out soon i guess.
I imagined the Rogue one being tier 1 but now i wonder if it's playable
Pretty solid
