  1. A person who reacts to this

    First I thought, this is an ok card, then I saw that it was legendary and were more like, naaaaaah. I can't see this being that useful.

    1. gingerninja

      Bro it gives your weapon more attacks, it's green skin but it can go off multiple times

  2. irhmgg

    a better Greenskin

  3. joeydungee

    Captain Greenskin on a stick. Not exactly the same, cause Krastinov may be unable to attack, but those rare occasions when Krastinov attacks multiple times might make him more useful than Greenskin.

    Warrior has some really good weapons to play this with right now.

  4. Lluadian

    Any deck that would run captain greenskin would consider this card the only fault for one is no pirate tag but the rush and possibility of multiple triggers makes up for that fact. It also supports the card that would summon a random minion dependant on your weapons attack.

  5. Thraben

    Now the rush copier makes more sense. I... Don't like cards like this. Weapons are a pretty unhealthy mechanic in Hearthstone and I'm tired of losing like 15 health within few turns just because someone goes face with a weapon.

    But my opinion doesn't make this card any worse, it's a very powerful though boring card. 4/5 I pray a weapon based aggro deck won't be a thing but it probably will..

    1. Stanek

      I see that often you comment about that you think weapons are unhealthy but consider this: running a weapon removal, taunts, heals/armor; also remember every balanced deck has a weakness in form of other deck so if you hate weapons make a deck that counters them.
      Remember all that matters is your fun.

      1. WingedCastaway

        This is a wise and sensible remark that I agree with.

  6. Agnaktor

    Maybe with the rouge quest ?

  7. WizNan

    Weird wording. "Whenever this minion attacks, give your weapon +1/+1."...?

    1. WizNan

      They fixed it. Nice

  8. ashandarey

    Thank god this is not a demon hunter card, my face would not take it

    1. WingedCastaway

      They already got the cancer Hunter/DH leg, if they got this one oh boy... ????

  9. Bisalissy

    Playmaker just got buffed :D Also, this is a really nice card for lore fans!

    Anyway, this looks decent and should make it into the majority of Warrior decks. Rush is much better than Greenskin's +1 Attack. Rogue might use it too in order to buff their hero power.

  10. Tuscarora87

    Pseudo Greenskin. Nothing else to add.

    *Immidently thinks of Gorhowl, Arcanite Reaper, and Achcaar! * Ooooooo! This is niiiiiiiice!

    Alright, now Warrior can be less Akward with using his weapons. The fact that it's as 5 Mana also makes it so that way Every Deck can be happy enough to consider using Doctor Krastinov. Control Warrior has Gorhowl for example, Galakronds can sharpen up their Claws (Ironically enough. (Be careful from not attacking, becuase other opponents can read your deck and they can use Ooze or Reno Jackson to Destory your Plan.)) And Aggro and Tempo can start going for the Throat (or face) more often.

    Do not underesimate The Krastinov; He is useful. 4 Stars.

    will this 2class cards work for thief rogue ?
    or will they consider to be as rogue cards ?
    will Spectral Cutlass gain durability when we play cards like this ?
    will it complete Bazaar Burglary when drawn from the deck ?
    will it be summon when we play Tess ?
    I need answers((
