    6 Mana destroy all weapons in your hands for an 0/1 taunt doesn't seem that good...

    1. Cuddler

      No mid-to-high cost card is good unless it can't be targeted by spells if that's how you look at every card.

    not good at all, easily removed

    1. Cuddler

      6 health is rather decent for a 6 drop, and it'll probably have more than that. Sure it can be removed by fireball if you don't buff it and hard removal, but most 6 drops are susceptible to both of those.

      I'm not calling the thing amazing, that 4 drop pirate is likely better, but if you judge a card by how easily it can be removed, then anything other than a 4/16 that can't be targeted by spells is pretty much too easily removed. Most minions get taken care of within a turn they're played anyway.

      1. FireMixtape

        But the important difference between this and other medium/large minions is that this card, in addition to being a card itself, also uses up other cards in your deck as well. Too often with new cards and expansions people neglect the simple concept of card advantage. If you discard 1 or more weapons with this guy, and then I use shadow word: death on it, I've taken care of at least 2 of your cards, while only using up 1 of mine. This means that you will be using up your resources far faster than I will, which most of the time leads to you losing the game

          exactly

    If you somehow get a Cursed Blade in your hand, you would love to play this card.

      Did you know that you can make a 30/30 minion in the game? It exists! It's not even that hard to make, recently my opponent managed to do it IN ARENA. Why do you think no one plays a potentially 30/30 minion? Probably the same reason I won that game like two turns later. Don't discard your cards for something stupid like this.

        that was prob me lul. but i won that game.

        1. Roberto

          lol, the pain arrives :)

  6. imaloony

    Yeah... this is probably just no good. Neat idea, but too many eggs in this particular basket for it to be good.
