I'm a bit surprised they actually printed this card, but makes sense to fix wild.
This is incredibly good card. It's great for wild for Tekhal molten giant stuff or insane armor gain decks that exist in wild. In standard it will be AMAZING vs control warrior. Good job Blizz this card is just awesome
a underwhelming ooze i don't know, its an arena card and nothing more.
Will be very good for Wild, but not see much play in Standard. I'm glad this exists.
If any card kills this game for me and makes me never want to play again it's this one. I lived through patches I lived through tunnel trog I lived through keleseth and spreading plague and ultimate infestation and quest rogue and here it is the straw slowly falling onto my back. And it's only a common.
they really are making alot of custom cards this expansion
This is card is incredible!
An honest question for debate, wouldn't it be better if they added some kind of "Piercing" keyword? I'd love to see a Legendary that says "Battlecry: Your damage is Piercing for the rest of the game"
FINALLY!!!!!!
No f... way, they did it. The mad lads finally made it
Oh, so they’re making cards for Wild now. Nice
Definitely going into wild decks.
It's one thing to deal with Jade Druid and be waiting for Skulking Geist to show up, another thing when they do the b.s. BEES! combo 2K armor garbage.
Now can we do something to sabotage Wild Infinite Shudderwock aside from getting lucky with Dirty Rat or making the Shaman panic and launch it early?
/have a golden Thekal I might dust now ... rarely use it anyway
Damn, that's a battlecry.
Although I feel this card will become more a card that 'exists', then people actually including it in their decks. A bit like Gluttonous Ooze. After the first weeks, only a handful of decks include it. But the fact that your opponent could have it included, makes you think twice about your deck and strategy.
ResidentSleeper Warrior actually having to think about a strategy instead of just vomiting removal and ramor...I hope they'll cope with it.
People are actually rating this card highly? It seems such an obviously unplayable situational card to me. Unless the meta turns into the equivallent of the shamanstome we have now but with Warriors I don't see why anyone would put a card like this in their deck.
Combo decks would run this
I appreciate them not making this a dragon so it would be less likely for random discovers to pull this in the perfect match ups.
I suppose it is the answer to million armor druid in wild. An interesting way of nerfing Earthen Scales without giving anyone any dust
Yes, yes YES!
Nobody can escape the Holy Wrath of Shirvallah, the Tiger! Nobody!!! Or Malygos damage for that matter... The fact that it iw battlecry even makes Shudderwock more scary.
I could see this as an One-of in a lot of damage based Combo decks, in Combos where the damage is not infinte, but in the 20-40 range. Holy Wrath Paladin for example often only manages 25damage a turn, with this as a softener, warriors would fear the holy tiger.
