Warrior looking down this expansion

so far in this expansion, warrior is being given two archetypes, recruit and bomb. recruit warrior does not look very good, most of the cards that 'cheat' out your big minions cost 9-10 mana, so it hardly seems worth it. recruit warrior just seems too slow and inconsistent.

and bomb warrior also seems kinda RNG reliant. I mean, if your opponent does not draw any of the bombs than it was all for nothing, and if they do draw some bombs, then they just take the damage and keep going. there does not seem to be a very reliable way to deal damage to your opponent. Dr. boom seems like a good idea, making the bombs useful even when they are not drawn, but just making some Boom Bots will not be enough to seal a game. 

I dont have much hope for warrior, which is a shame because it is my second favorite class, and it has been a while since warrior was the best class. does anyone else feel the same? or is it just me being pessimistic?

plus baku is rotating out and the warrior scheme sucks.

  • The cards look fun, at least, but I am inclined to be similarly pessimistic. A fun card isn't necessarily a good card...

  • I agree. On the bright side, the DK cards will rotate outta standard; so good ol' control warrior will now be able to compete with other control decks at least (hopefully).

  • You are forgetting, that there's a third archtype - control. Both control mech and mech-dragon hybrid got insane cards in this direction. You have Omega Devastator, Hecklebot (to bring the opponent closer to fatigue and eventually to counter combo), Barista Lynchen. Archivist Elysiana is really bad in most of the classes, but in warrior she will be the next Elise the Trailblazer.

     

    Imho control warrior will be one of the most popular decks next expansion.

  • Rush Warrior could still exist. it will lose Keleseth and some other Mammoth year Neutrals, but so do all the other decks, the rush package would still exist. Rush Warrior is doing pretty okay in today Meta. 

  • Yup. If you ignore the fact that Bomb Warrior is probably not going to work, that still leaves Rush, Control and possibly Recruit. 

     Warrior fast became my favourite Class over the last year or so, with Recruit and Rush Archetypes finding permanent homes in my Decklist. 

     I wouldn't despair just yet OP. Things are looking OK for Garrosh and Magni at this time.
