Voone went from an under-utilized Dragon multiplicator to a Menagerie hand-size manager.
Is this his time to shine ?

After several audience members were burnt to a crisp, Voone's band became a lot less all-in on Dragons.
Struggle with Heroic Galakrond's Awakening? I got your back :
There are some scenarios where this is really good. Getting One Amalgam Band duplicated could be very relevant for taking back control of the board and there might be other archetypes where you can just stockpile tribal threats, but I REALLY don't think doing a faithful callback to one of Rastakhan's many underwhelming legendaries was a good idea.
I tried having fun once.
It was awful.
This is probably a pretty good Menagerie Warrior card. I suppose I could try and look at new minions and try to figure out what might be most desirable to copy, but nah.
I'll be brutally honest, this card is very likely trash, much like its predecessor War Master Voone. The only thing stopping me from giving this a straight one-star rating is the fact that its very likely going to see play, but its win rate cant be good, in fact its likely menagerie warrior works better without this.
I'd like to first ask team5, what exactly is in their mind when they first designed this shit? What minion exactly is this supposed to replicate that'll immediately make this a playable card. Drum Soloist, the only viable dragon that's not shit or too expensive, curves from this perfectly but yet somehow is anti-synergy with what the deck wants to do. And then there's the other tribes...of which the only dedicated tribe card from this expansion is Razorfen Rockstar.
The One-Amalgam Band is not a finisher, let's be immediately clear here. So even with two, at most youre just stalling. Nellie is good, but you dont need two of them, not to mention too slow. And no, team5, we will not be playing Clash of the Colossals just so we can patch up warrior's lack of good minions.
So where we at? Poor stats, no taunt at least, and there's no decent targets. Can get better, but like the riffs I think its beyond a joke. Just compare this with School Teacher. That card has better stats, better value, and gets you out of sticky situations. What the actual fuck
Meanwhile at blizzard HQ:
Hey guys, so we have managerie warrior lined up and we need a legendary pay-off for it. Anyone have ideas?
Employee 1: What about something that gets a buff for each tribe played this game?
Nice, idea. You know what, lets make that a neutral legendary.
Employee 2: What about War Master Voone, the trash legendary from RASTAKHAN and make him copy different tribes instead?
Soo a VALUE card for a deck that wants to play a bit more aggresive? That sounds like a great idea! That will fit warriors theme of being bad perfectly!
*sigh*
RNG is only fun as long as there is a 50/50 chance of getting something really good or trash level of bad. If RNG always results in something good, then it's not fun.
Getting two copies of One Amalgam Band is the dream, but could actually just be good as a "draw" card in general for menagerie warrior.
Hey, you heard about that Mario guy?
