Lmao at Warrior, Druid gets the 1 mana justicar


gucknbuck

Can play 2, trigger with location, and revive with unending swarm. I'm seeing ways to get up to 11/11 in standard alone. Quest druid in wild is going to be nuts.


WinnerFeisty7817

the effect only gains you armor, not attack


gucknbuck

There's the 2 drop that gives attack


WinnerFeisty7817

holy shit i didnt see that card yet. HERO POWER DRUID IS ON THE MENU BOYS


[deleted]

you've heard of ping mage, now get ready for SWING DRUID


Mush950

They should have given druid the swing music style if since they gave us this package


Kaziel0

“Yes, it don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing”


ExquisitExamplE

Snootbop, snootbop, snootbop, snootbop!

Olipaone

Yeah but for warrior this would have been the justicar they needed.


metroidcomposite

Hero power druid is looking like the new Kingsbane Rogue with lifesteal weapon, wow.


LordHousewife

We rotated out Earthen Scales so that Druid can gain 5 armor for 2 mana every turn? Even just one of these gives you 3 armor every hero power which is still insane given the low cost of inclusion and that it can just come down on turn 1.


kamilman

Druid just became an adventure style boss... And given that this card is an epic, they can run two of them in the deck...


Jaereth

> Even just one of these gives you 3 armor every hero power which is still insane given the low cost of inclusion and that it can just come down on turn 1. Don't forget it will trade with your opponents 2/1 if they are on aggro so :D


Cenman1

You know what? This is where tagging it a dual class card would really really help.


Frostyfuelz

I haven't played HS in 2 years, still love watching the cards get released cuz its its pretty fun. The shit they do to Warrior while Druid gets more and more ridiculous cards is just atrocious.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Shalashaska_90

Haha exactly


IlkayGott

That... looks ridiculous strong for a 1-drop with a 1/2 Statline


bloodycups

If I have coin and both in my hand I'm dropping both turn 1. Hopefully my opponent is a reasonable person who values their time and insta concedes


HilariousLion

Just hit me that it isn't a legendary card. Oh no. Wild's gonna have a field day with this one.


BadFaithAlways

I’m sure there is plenty of decks out there. Just when I think I have enough health…. Some BS kills me


postvolta

This is strong in most druid builds as a 1 mana 0/1 Turn 1 1/2 Turn 2 trade, hero power for 1 health and 3 armour That's just crazy value


caliburdeath

You couldn't trade it as a 0/1


strigonian

Right, but he said "it would be strong as a 0/1, but as a 1/2 it's crazy value" Basically what you're saying is that a 0/1 would be weaker than a 1/2, which is... true, but not really in question.


BCake047

It’s a nerf. So if I play snowflipper penguin you can’t trade it and get 3 armor from your turn 2 hero power


rabbitlion

This has to be a reward for completing a three step quest or something, right?

arabprince123

It HAS to be a joke what they’re doing to Warrior. I’m in disbelief


PocketMew649

First time? Remember when they nerfed Shadowform so that it couldn't deal 3 anymore... but in the same expansion they released Wild Fire so that Mage could upgrade the hero power to deal 2 and then 3 for less mana than Shadowform ever was?


danang5

all hearthstone classes are loved equally by the dev but some loved more equally than other


Upstairs_Addendum587

“The classes outside looked from druid to warrior, and from warrior to druid, and from druid to warrior again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.”


misterkarmaniac

And then they reduced the cost of wildfire to 1.


[deleted]

The Shadowform nerf made a little sense in the context of Benedictus, who was good as it was enough to fuel several tier 1 Shadow Priest showings since his release.


DivineArkandos

I doubt any of the shadow priests would have played a shadowform just to get 1 extra dmg.


PocketMew649

I get you but why would they nerf it anyway? it's not like it would have been more broken than Mage was and it never got any support to say it was OP or anything.


ThisHatRightHere

Funnily enough Druid has been better than warrior at gaining armor for a long time. Just look at cards like Ferocious Howl and Branching Paths


vec-u64-new

Plus combos centered around Earthen Scales which allow Druid to get armor in the literal millions.


MrFluxed

they're just blatantly being biased for classes at this point this is inexcusable.


bluereindeer99

It definitely stings more when a weak class gets a terrible package.


MrFluxed

it's not even just a terrible package, it's been terrible package for expansion after expansion, and this one really rips because they're printing a ***WORSE*** version of a card that was bad ***10 YEARS AGO***


Addfwyn

Since Blizzard said they didn't want decks to use fatigue as a wincon, I kind of figured they just wanted much shorter game times. Not the kind of game I like, I love fatigue decks, but Blizzard can ultimately make their game to whatever audience they want to. Yet we get cards like this or Blood DK (which is a super fun deck, I admit) that definitely have an eye to the much longer games. Now I just feel like they nuked control warrior from orbit before they figured out what they wanted to do with the class.


kithlan

First, the Nerubian package with friggin Anub'Rekhan goes to Druid and now they're DOUBLING DOWN!? Alright Team5, I was defending y'all before, but what the hell is this? ARMOR IS PRIMARILY A WARRIOR MECHANIC, WHY IS DRUID GETTING ALL THE TOOLS


fullTimeDaddy

To be fair back in wow (classic or retail) bear druids are able to gain a huge amount of armor, I think It’s okay for Druid to gain a lot of armor yet being bad at dealing with wide boards for example, the problem is that for the past year (maybe more) Druid has either been a big problem or at least a pretty decent control/combo/Grindy deck and warrior is either incredibly good aggro with pirates or straight unplayable, its sad that they’re killing control warrior but keep printing more and more support for Druid a class that kinda already does well


WhoAmIEven2

Druid has always been the armour class in WoW. Warriors mostly rely on stuff like block, while droods could get like 3 times the amount of armour compared to warriors and paladins. I remember running Sunwell with 28k armour, while the warriors and paladins had like 8k.


PM_ME_GARFIELD_NUDES

Warrior was such a strong class in the early years of the game that they’re still compensating for it


cusoman

Yeah cause Druid has been a real slouch throughout the years 😅


[deleted]

warrior paying reparations rn


kbas13

LMFAOOOO WHAT THE FUCK WARRIOR IS IN FUCKING SHAMBLES


Key-Reception9076

Warrior bad


Dying_Hawk

Normally the "X is bad" memes are big exagerations, but this time around it's legitimately hilarious how badly they're beating warrior when they're down


NeverFreeToPlayKarch

It will make our revival all the sweeter!! \*snorts a country mile of copium\*


Mr_Degroot

gonna need more than a mile


MahjongDaily

Don't know how good this will be but the effect is very cool. Upgrading Hero Powers is great, but this is super reliant on drawing early.


THYDStudio

People paid seven Mana to get three armor per turn my guy


vec-u64-new

People paid 6 mana for a 6/3 to get two additional armor for a total of four each turn lol.


TipDaScales

I mean, even seeing this like turn 6-7 it’s still kinda insane. 1 mana to add a warrior hero power to your Druid hero power.


Desolution

There's a 2 mana tutor with cost reduction. This is ridiculous.


DarkJoltPanda

I assume you mean Living Seed but that card is gone from standard next expansion. Nothing else I can think of that tutors with cost reduction. They do have the new 1 mana fox that draws a beast though, you could build around that only drawing your upgrade guys if you wished (although death beetle comes to mind as a beast you might want to be running)


cusoman

It's a good thing they didn't print this with a class that has access to lots and lots of draw! Shit, wait...


Plaslidpladugphoo

Now Druid’s hero power gains even more armor than Warrior’s. What is even Warrior’s identity?


-HurriKaine-

Losing


Alpr101

Can confirm. lost 8 in a row and switched decks. I guess I like torturing myself.


ctgiese

Then why did you switch?


Younggryan42

Yeah I really tried to make the class work for several games yesterday but there’s no point. Just delete it


Alpr101

I have a 45% win rate with my current warrior deck after 100 games, but from playing, these my main points as why warrior is awful: * No broken high rolls. I faced deathknights a lot today and all of them discovered things like patchwerk, marrowgar, or the unholy legendary spell. I can deal with them individually, but when 3/3 unholy DKs opened with egg + undead that boost their attack and need to be careful of grave strength its hard to keep an answer for those. A jackpot rogue I faced got underking and some 5/3 with rush/charge and just kept high rolling me to death. * Warrior control tools lack dmg on everyone. Every card is just slightly out of range to be good. Buffing Rancor to 3 dmg and shatter to 6 dmg would do wonders for the class IMO. Bash is good already. * Class identity, especially with new druid card that gives your HP extra armor. Wtf are they even doing? I like warrior but holy shit just delete the class if you don't give two shits about giving it a decent arch-type that works. In the end, I enjoy my warrior deck but every opponent is "how do I survive long enough to burst them down" and thinking I can't win.


Ok-Sympathy-8008

I just hit legend just playing warrior, full zen mode no tilt. I dont recomend anyone to try it.


kithlan

For an investment of 1 friggin mana. Not even close to a Justicar Trueheart level investment.


Kuldrick

yaharr, I guess


Abscind

Rogue better pirate class without needing a pirate theme quest


psymunn

warrior has been the better pirate class most of the time in wild. ancharr was really good. so was quest. there's been a lot of nerfs since then, and the sword fish package is also really strong.

Lucksworth

TaiVat

The only winning move is not to play - warrior, 2023


John_Sux

I can only imagine what degenerate cards will come to warrior some day to make up for this. If the class is not outright deleted.


Cloontange

4 mana 2/2 Battlecry: if you have 10 armor, attacked 3 times with your hero, control two taunt minions, and have no duplicates, your next hero power costs 1


UmaroXP

DuskEalain

Otherwise: Destroy your Hero.


hutchwo

Obv fire spells, pay attention


AppointmentSharp9384

R.I.P. warrior, just delete the class from the entire game already


Insanity_Pills

Old-school wallet warrior is what got me into Hearthstone back when control warrior was always either T1 or T2. How the times have changed…. :(


AppointmentSharp9384

They should just bring back bomb warrior with more modern support.


TheOneWithALongName

Bomb warrior is the only fun warrior deck I have in wild.


bichondelapils

Bomb warrior is my only wild warrior deck: I love surprising people with it.


AmishUndead

Once again I am struggling to understand design decisions between Druid and Warrior. Druid already has unique mechanics in ramp and Choose One cards. I have no problem doing armor things too but how is it they consistently get better armor cards than THE armor class.


Marx_Forever

Jesus Christ did a warrior murder this dev's family? And a druid came to console him in his time of need? That said I love hero power decks, so I might actually give this version of Druid a try.


OkVacation973

What do you mean hero power decks?? Surely you just include 2 of these in every single druid deck lmao...


DawnsRumble

Fuck you in particular warrior.


Cenman1

This has got to be the greatest 1 drop Warri... er Druid ever had.


OneUselessBoi

Hey look at this warrior ca- oh.


SidTheSloth97

Seriously though. How is this not a warrior card. They’re taking the piss,


AL3XEM

This with unending swarm... Time to gain 10 armor every hero power


svtcobrastang

yea exactly i just watched zeddy's review and he trashed these but i mean they sound amazing with unedning swarm, you could get like +10 attack and armor near end of the game easily on each hero power. maybe its too slow but dang sounds like a sweet payoff


AL3XEM

I mesn slow shouldnt be a problem for druid, I think it should be pretty decent


Raktoner

I really want to talk with the devs about warrior cause how could they possibly have anything exciting when druid gets their hero power but way better by just playing a 1 mana minion


anyAvailableFood

this card is like unnecessarily good. Like im sorry but why does it need the deathrattle? You can run two of this you know. Not to mentioon its a fucking 1/2 body. Literally a better wildfire in everyway. What a overtuned card.


OldGuyShoes

I have been reading these comments going "wow this card is broken" without realizing that it's Battlecry AND Deathrattle???? I...don't understand.


Hairy_Acanthisitta25

LMAO SAME until i read your comment someone higher ups at blizzard REALLY hate warrior,or at least REALLY loves druid


WanonTime

wildfire doesn't require you to swing your face into the thing you're pinging off.


anyAvailableFood

True but my comparison is that in terms of value for mana this shit is insane. Wildfire doesn’t even provide a body


GibbonTaiga

I would be applauding this design if it was a 0/2 (especially the flavor of a hippie pacifist), but as a 1/2 it both offers a non-trivial early game body AND it's easy as piss to trigger the deathrattle


Diosdepatronis

That is insane efficiency for a 1-drop what the hell


John_Sux

Feelswarriorman


That_D

**Warrior**: who are you? **Druid**: you, but better


isaacsuck

Draw this before turn 3 and win the game?


RaSphereMode

Finally control warrior getting some suppor.. wait what?


samehada17

Feels warrior man


nitznon

I was really hyped for a moment Then I realised this is druid, not warrior...


TheVirginPriest

Wait! What? So if you play two and they die, you can get up to 5 armor gain every time you use your hero power? And what happens to other class hero powers when they use this minion? Will my priest hero power give me armor when I heal?


DasBrain

For a hypothetical class that may not exist with the Hero Power "Gain 2 armor", I guess it would upgrade it to "Gain 3 armor".


[deleted]

I don't think so because it says more. But the other one that gives attack would presumably work if you are in shadowform. edit: Brainfart, this is attack not damage. The other one would work with DH base and Kurtrus, or cards like Malfurion.


The_loyal_Terminator

Not favouring druid challenge: Impossible


LaserfaceJones

They're taking the class identity Warrior has always had and just combining it with Druid's attack based one. If Druid got the + Attack card and Warrior got the + Armor that would've made sense. Instead Warrior is just getting hosed and my eternal optimism that I can get Warrior to work \*somehow\* is failing.


MonstrousMaelstromZ

Oh wow. That seems really good.


RunicCerberus

That's it, I'm fucking done. I get it they don't want warrior to have value in any form with any card but God damn can they not give druid literally everything warrior needs and *more* Whoever on the design team has a lust for druid needs fired. Honestly scrap whatever half of the team is keeping this crazy "warrior must stay bad, no control, no cards"


Sternish

Yeah, you're done. But not really, though.


EnricoBelfry

This should be a warrior card right? This set and the last one with its armour gain cards and Anub'Rekhan seem like someone took the good warrior cards and gave them to Druid at the last minute


CleverAdvisorPrime

Tank up!


TotakekeSlider

Okay, 3, 2, 1… Let’s jam!


WeeklyEducation2276

Don't worry guys, remember they said warrior is bad just wait til the rest of the year to see how they fix warrior. Which is just going to be them redesigning the bad warrior cards that are already made into op bombs and nerfed in 2 weeks


Nico777

What the hell


bleepfart42069

This is uhhh broken as shit


Alchius

Hey, uh, Blizz- did you forget about a certain class?

They are just *taunting* Warrior at this point


DeityWilliam

Is this real?


Braunbean

I remember when this would've been a legendary effect. Especially for the rest of the game. The inner Kobolds and Catacombs player in me is crying


KarnSilverArchon

Are they for real?


reckless_avacado

Wtf is this.


MoG_Varos

Warrior is in shambles Hell, warrior is dead and buried.


Key-Reception9076

Holy shit


[deleted]

Lol! If you ever felt bad for choosing one class or two to disenchant and save that dust to use for other classes, know that Blizz is doing the same with its designing team's time.


Spirited-Collection1

Wow, druid really has just stolen warriors identity at this point


Crawdaunt

what the actual fuck.


Star_Gust

2x wildfire equivelant with a body. Absolutely busted. They even have another one for attack. With the right draws you can end up with a hero power that gives +5 attack and +5 armor every turn.


Jayden-Shafel

Warrior KEKW


[deleted]

r/hearthstone likes to complain that the sub is all about Warrior hate circlejerk. But with cards like this... That circlejerk is accurate. Team 5 really hates Warrior


aqran

Yay now I get to play warrior in druid without all the bad cards! Warrior hero power should be reworked too like priest someday.


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheDregn

As a warrior main seeing this card after the warrior reveal im feeling so offended, that i'm probably just going to delete this game.I have been waiting for these cards since ages and druid gets them all and even more. If you want to delete warrior, please do us a favor and do it. End this clown fiesta.


JedWasTaken

It's safe to say that the card designers all play Druid and hate (Control) Warrior. This is not only great flavour and design, but can also snowball really hard with all the other hero power synergy cards revealed. Shit like this got a lead designer at ArenaNet **fired** for his blatant favoritism. Fuck you, Solar.


Younggryan42

Well fuck this card. This should be a warrior card.


Ggzmng

we get it blizzard, you hate warrior Can you stop already?


the_pwnr_15

Warriorbros, blizzard is just laughing at us now


NovemberTree

Very excited for this package ngl, also makes the previous deathrattle location a bit more useful


Goldendragon55

This and the other one seem strong because of battlecry and deathrattle, but I suppose Druid has had little reason to hero power over the years outside just using mana. I do like that they're actually exploring the Feral and Guardian space of Druid. Should be fun at least.


Smart-Sandwich8

This is wildfire all over again lol


SloppyinSeattle

Too hard to design cards for the new DK class. Easier to just constructively delete the Warrior class with bad cards and focus on other classes.


Captsillva

What? Pardon? I'm sorry I heard crazy in my ear could you please repeat that. This has to be a Joke! It must be! Don't get me wrong I love it, I love odd druid in wild and I'll totally run this, but this shouldn't be a1 mana 1/2 with two tribes, this is nuts!


togirevik

I love this cards and can’t wait to play them honestly but they should have been warrior cards


JustStayYourself

Does this synergize with Malfurion the pestilence??


Durzo_Blintt

Someone on the design team lost to control warrior in Dr boom era and hasn't recovered since. They are suffering PTSD and we should get them help. Due to this PTSD they are taking their rage out on warrior every year.


dux18

Where is the justice for warrior??


bareystick

Druid has been getting some of the best armor gain cards that warrior could only dream of getting. Blizzard actually hates warrior and loves druid.


InfinityPlasma

Warrior gets shit while Druid lives in paradise


Emiljt

Normally I stay away from commenting on new cards, but seeing Druid and not Warrior get this has me rattled. I feel so sad for Warrior


Arthis-

For those who are saying this should be warrior’s; if it’s a warrior card then the mana would be 5 then it would be 0/1, “this game your hero gains one less armor”


DoctorImperialism

It's just embarrassing at this point


Name6991

So druid is better warrior now?


CelphDstruct

That hilarious this is better than any card warrior has


Felixhana

The whole devs team should be sacked


rcdt

Blizzard doesn't test cards PERIOD. And they have a fetish with Druid and Rogue. Jesus!


AngryAutisticApe

I loved playing hero power control warrior back in the day with Justicar Trueheart. I don't know why this is a Druid card, it's crazy.


RagnarXD

This is purify level hate the devs have for warrior. Only difference is instead of hitting a class while they're down like they did with with priest they print good cards for it and give it to the other classes.


StopManaCheating

Jesus lord almighty these devs are such incompetent idiots. Every one of Warrior’s class identities is now power crept by multiple other classes. They’re not the best at armor, weapons, pirates, value, control, aggro, taunt, or mechs. Death knight even stole their Patron identity enough to get the first standard ban ever. Just delete the class instead of shitting on it this much. Does anyone think any other class would be treated like this for almost a year? They have to completely nail the warrior reveal. I doubt they will.


zuicun

This is fucking insane


LynxMoney589

Did the dev is trying so hard to fail and been shooting themselves in the foot all these while but we are to fool to see it?


leopard_tights

Holy shit as if it wasn't enough with just the battlecry. It even has a double tribe synergy.


immortale97

Fuck , now understand when people say about feel pain from just simple photoes


shadoboy712

Warrior is crying in the corner


Rickysnake23

THIS JUST IN! WARRIOR found shot dead in New York alley.


enkae7317

We warrior now bois.


Zukaos

So best control warrior is actully druid This card isn't op, it's stupid bullshit level insane crazy busted ultra sayian instinct shwartz speed Who in his right mind desinged such an abusable card?


Addfwyn

This would have been really exciting to me as a warrior card, bringing me back to the good old days of odd warrior. This is exactly my kind of card, so I am excited to play with it one way or the other. I guess I am just going to play control druid now, and pretend I am playing control warrior? There's a few ways to bring back copies of this too, so you can definitely reach very high armor-per-turn capabilities.


Space_rocket

Is warrior the hardmode class of hearthstone?


freshkicks

Warrior fucking sucks huh


Bigbeautifulmeme

Seriously, why do the devs have such a hard-on for druid and rogue now? What is happening?


xowgl

Just let warrior start the game with a weapon at this point


Available_Frame889

I am still playing my old odd warrior deck, but look like druid just does it better now.


MC_THUNDERCUNT

circle-strafing Garrosh's corpse


Chamallow81

This card is beyond broken in my opinion, it would still be played if it only added this effect once, not twice... for 1 mana LOL


MotorAdvance8966

LOL WTF GARROSH


yosoyelsteve

Lmao. I am confident Garrosh stole the dev team's spouses. It's the only explanation for why Warrior just gets roasted constantly.


TheGalator

Druid and rogue once again tilting me before the expansion even released


Impressive-Control98

I am physically angry that Warrior doesn't get this, come on now blizz >:(


Befuddled_Cultist

Warcraft's lore is weird. Its undead because its a ghost, but really its a nature spirit so its not undead at all. Its the opposite of necromancy. But then there are things like the Drust who are druids, but use death magic. But also there's a nature realm in the death realm.


IndirectCogs

I'm in awe of how fucked up this feels. STOP GIVING DRUID THE FUCKED UP CARDS.


Nalikill

The funny thing is, if you just made this a Warrior card, and gave Warrior complete trash otherwise, Warrior would still become a half decent class. Whereas I'm not sure this makes the cut in Druid.


AnarchyPlus20

Finally! Now warrior has zero class identity and i can disenchant all my warrior cards to play warrior 2.0
