Venomizer Card Review

They always drop some really good cards in the final dump, and here’s one. I expected a 2/2 Mech with Magnetize, but it also gives Poisonous? Well, that’s absolutely crazy. To be honest, now all of those Goblin Bombs got much, much better. If you can Magnetize onto them, clear something with Poisonous and then deal 2 damage to your opponent’s face, now that’s really worth it.

This card is just solid. Dropping it as a 2/2 for 2 with Poisonous can be good sometimes, it can be used to change your opponent’s plans of dropping a big minion and forcing him to remove this instead. Or it can get a nice trade up in some cases.

Magnetize it onto the Upgradeable Framebot and you get an early 3/7 with Poisonous – solid stats and it clear absolutely everything. Lots of Mechs have high health, so it can be a great counter.

It also has synergy with Missile Launcher, but I’m not so sure about that combo anyway. Definitely better than using Toxic Arrow, but it’s 2 cards combo that costs 8 mana still. Not sure if that combo will see play, but it doesn’t matter – this card is just good. It looks like one of the best Mechs in the set.

Card rating: 9/10

    3/5

    Too weak on its own to really see play, statted weird as a buff. I can hardly imagineyou would put this on a minion and not kill the opponent with just your better attack value rather than poisonous. Althou it is an aoe with the deal 1 to all mech, but that is kind of a niche combo you wouldnt play in a midrangey deck. Maybe as a 2 drop that doesnt suck balls when got from the hunter leg spell?

      There are hardly any other poisonous minions this cheap that are stated this well. While I am going out on a limb here by saying this, Venomizer could honestly be Hunter’s Shielded Minibot. It may not have the two for one potential Minibot had, but few cheap minions can trade up anywhere near as well as this can. It also needs to be answered given how Magnetic works as soon as it is played no matter when it is dropped on the board.

      It is probably the strongest card to get a reveal after the final card stream.

    We now have a poisonous mech to combo with that 6 mana 4/4 mech that deals 1 damage to all other minions at the end of each turn. So maybe not trash anymore.

    Maybe the mechs are powerful enough to be the skeleton around some kind of big hunter. In this case this would be a good inclusion.

    5/5.

    So many mechs you want this to merge with AND most importantly this one has the magnetic.
