they would have to nerf the weapon's durability I gues. Make it like a Galakrond one with 2-durability that gains attack equal to his health (and obviously his health scales)
Then again, that might be weird for a classic card seeing how Handbuff Warlock is only really a temporary mechanic.
They could also just straight up turn him into a regular Hero card and just get rid of the minion aspect entirely, but I guess that would ruin the uniqueness.
The flavor is poking fun at pokemon, but I feel like the poke-reference would have been (almost) more fitting with Zixor, Apex Predator : '' Pokey-man. Gotta spike 'em all!''
I would love a Mists of Pandaria Expansion with a monk class introduced for it to thematically fit. Death Knight, unfortunately, won't have a better theme than Frozen Throne in my opinion.

Here's a second theorycraft of mine, making it a Highlander deck so I can fit everything I want inside. It does not have the Librams outside of Libram of Wisdom, and it is not a Pure Paladin deck.
I think it would be okay for a death knight clad even though we had frozen throne and death knight cards, because that was just current classes turning into death knights and not a real deathknight, makes sense to me(a monk or a demon hunter would never turn into a deathknight anyway u_u) so I say bring it on, but the thing about a deathknight class instead of a monk or a demon hunter for example, is the release would be all about the new class, and with frozen throne being a thing that existed, idk how they'd tie in an expansion to deathknight, like many have said they could easily do a mists expansion for the monk if they wanted to add that as a class, since we dont have a lot of pandaren in the game already, but with deathknights we have a lot of themed cards around them already idk how they would make it work, but it's possible somehow I'm sure.
yeah, first of all get rid of the Sac Pact Meme. It was fun for a while but J-raxx has been powercreeped so hard that this instant counter isn't even remotely justified anymore.
I wonder if they could rework him to somehow apply Handbuffs to his transformation....or really just buff him to 8-mana so he's isn't the absolute worst tempo play of all time anymore.
Monk would have to be next since they already have done Deathknights. Adding Monk whenever they finally do a Mists of Pandaria expansion.
Warrior absolutely needs changes made to Charge and Warsong Commander. The Charge nerf is now really dumb since they added Rush to the game. Warsong Commander should just be unnerfed and sent to HoF.
Unseal the Vault doesn't provide "late-game prowess"? Have you ever even played Quest Hunter?
Veranus is a way to push through Taunts, or to make better trades. I still see him being a powerful tool. Losing Springpaw is not going to reduce the power of this card. Even in the current standard list, you don't need a lynx to make use of Veranus.
Teron Gorefiend I have been on the fence about adding to the list, and will probably test him out at some point. In a deck that is so dependent on board control, him getting silenced would be devastating.
Heh, I thought this was an early April Fool's when I clicked on the article. Might still be, who knows.
I'm trying to think of a card, The Hole Truth, that has something to do with the donut hole. Perhaps a two card combo - with the other being "An Actual Dough Nut", referring to how the treat was named for its round "core", not the ring around it - that instantly wins the game? Deliciously overpowered.
Unfortunately(?), I do not own The Voraxx, and I do not plan to craft the card. There are much higher priorities for my dust beyond a card that's only good in this one, less-than-stellar deck. Good idea, though.
@On the subject of going Highlander:
I honestly thought of that too! There are so many cards I want to play in this deck that it becomes hard to decide on which to include (hence this thread). Going Highlander would alleviate that feeling somewhat, so I'll probably make a second version of the deck and try it out.
Sound the Bells! was a casualty of war: it was in there when the deck was 40 cards large, but I needed to trim something and it got the ax. I definitely think it can be reintroduced. I do have one concern, though, because I'm wondering if Lady Liadrin will refill my hand with copies of Sound the Bells! from the Echo effect. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but it does get in the way of the other, better buff spells I want to reacquire.
@On the subject of including the non-buff Librams:
They're the new hotness, so I want to try the package. That's it, really lol. I'll probably remove them after I discover the cards aren't working.
Thief Rogue cards have a chance of not creating any cards. I believe this is because Demon Hunter has been added as a class, but it currently has no cards. The thief rogue cards sometimes choose Demon Hunter as the class to pull from, but since Demon Hunter has no cards, they produce nothing. Also, if you play against Demon Hunter in practice mode and use a “from your opponent’s class” card it also produces nothing
"This means that if you get a card that you don’t want, you can disenchant it and you will not receive it again until you have all cards of that rarity from that set."
This seems to not be working. I had all the common cards from classic set, I disenchanded one, and didn't receive it in the next pack. It seems as though if you disenchant something, you will not get it again even if you collect all other cards from the set :/

I like the hand-buff Idea to beef him up. As long as there isn't a way to totally abuse it of course.

that would be kind of a scam, seeing how no budget player would even want to invest into a class that's gonna go away within 2 years.
