    Okay this is the worst one this far, in my opinion.
    Only works in rogue decks that don't want a specific weapon equipped, and each weapon will destroy the other if you don't attack between them and even seem to expensive for rouge and for the effect.

    1. Sidus

      I mean there isn't really a rogue weapon that will be running around. Weapon rogue is dead without cutting class and cloak of shadows and MOST LIKELY deadly poison.

      Also, the weapons are 1 durability so you just trade with a claw, swing with your face, and then trade the other claw. It's a 6 mana 6/5 deal 4 twice to minions and at least 6 to face if you use both weapons face.

      1. A person who reacts to this

        True, and with the callosal boosting the weapon too it gets a little better. Guess my head is stuck in wild. In standard it sounds like it can be useful.

    5/5 You're Welcome!

    Moana reference.

    1. sirjonas

      YES! I was trying to figure out if that was a reference!

  3. CaptainDunwell

    I wouldn’t sleep on this card, 6 mana 6/5 battlecry: deal 4 damage to a minion twice and deal 4 damage to face or minion AND equip a 2/1 weapon. Good value and clearing potential, only downside is that it might be clunky but I think this will still see play

    1. Ginnel

      Does the +2 attack from the main body translate to giving extra attack for the weapon? the writing doesn't suggest so.

      1. sirjonas

        Yeah! The weapon is named Crabatoa Claw, so its gonna get the +2 Attack!

        1. WingedCastaway

          Are you sure? We'd have to wait and see, I feel.

        2. Ginnel

          Oh yeah on a reread that makes sense

    Its a great board control, whats weird to see o rogue. I love it! Love control and love rogue! You can even shadowstep it to keep controling the board while get weapons and deal extra damage to face. GREAT card.

    1. WingedCastaway

      The only fortunate thing is that you're likely only gonna get one 2/1 weapon, since you can only attack once a turn. But for the rest I agree. This is essentially DH's double 4/2 rush card except you get a 6/5 body and a 2/1 weapon for 2 extra mana. A fairly good deal.

  5. SWEdosaur

    kinda wack how they named both the minion and the weapon nearly the same.

    1. DannyN

      prob cause the main body's effect will add +2 to both the minion and the weapon.

  6. CASA

    More a tempo colossal. 5/6 Body 8 Rush damage, 4 Weapon damage. Fits in just every rogue deck and is the new jandice.

    So 5/5.
