At least four more, even

If you trigger the Deathrattle on your own turn it's not issue (and it shouldn't be too hard to shoot a 1/1) and once you swing they won't have the mana to play even Ooze (outside of random cost reduction scenarios)

Should of made this an epic honestly waste of a legendary but I still like it.

Does not seem very good BUT I can NOT give this a 5 star just because of the south park episode.

Better than Mogu Cultist, but still just a silly meme card nonetheless. I'm glad that they're willing to print cards like these from time to time.

I mean, it technically can proc the reward again after you've played gotten 7 boars, but it won't count towards it because it's the actual pig that needs to die while the deathrattle is literally just the sword.

Although, if this somehow does become a deck, Vectus would probably be in case of weapon removal or if 45 damage isn't enough.

Yeah, Celestalon said that the boars have to die. Honestly, they could've told Sway Bae about that when they gave her the card.

Yeah, I agree, you would always swing it the turn you get it. The issue is there really isn't a way to consistently kill this off 7 times, or 8 (8+ if you if are fighting a priest).

edit: I replied to the wrong comment. Whoops. too lazy to delete and rewrite it though.

So how would this work in standard?  Any things pop out at you at making this viable?  I'm guessing classes that have deathrattle support, so inherently that seems to indicate Rogue, Hunter, Priest...and maybe shaman?  Out of all of them, hunter and priest seem the most viable to trigger it 7 times.  But for some reason I'm blanking on the ways this could work...

Someone is gonna have to walk me through just how to get 7 copies of this pig dead in standard. In wild, Rogue has this easy with Togwaggle's Scheme and Lab Recruiter, and unlike Mogu Cultist, they don't all have to be in play at the same time.

You are right! 

You can run 2, meaning you'll only need to create 5 more.

Hunter is obviously the easiest choice, but I feel like it would be kind of pointless. Rogue would be great thanks to Grand Empress, but they no longer have actual shuffle support. Technically Druid can do it to with Menagerie Warden and Germination and all that nonsense.

I'm assuming there might be some more neutral support for it.

At the end of the day it's probably gonna be another Highkeeper Ra. It doesn't matter if you can realistically assemble the combo, if the result doesn't win the game on the spot it's probably not worth it.

Just a fun silly card. Love seeing these and trying to get them to work. That sword art is awesome too! 

Agreed. Same for Mok'Nathal Lion. I love this card so much more than the Priest Questline. This is what a ridiculous win-condition should look like.

Remember Weasel Priest? I 'member. And now it has a win condition. Great meme, definitely gonna try it.

THat is Blizzard referencing South Park referencing Blizzard

OTK in Shaman, with the windfury legend? MarkMcKz?

Hey that's a south park reference.

Aside from that, any deck running this boar will have Whitemayne or Gorefiend in it. 

Might take the whole expansion, but by god I am gonna swing that sword.

Countess Ashmore has burned me before with her lack of play... but Varian just might be impactful enough to see play despite high cost.

No, not really because you would bounce the same minion multiple times as opposed to letting it die multiple times. 

I can see some priest shenanigans coming to wild
