The variance of 1 cost spells is way too high, to make this work consistently. Also what you get depends on your opponent. So this is a 2 star card at best
Don't get me wrong, we've all been waiting for a card with this effect: too bad that it comes when Odd Warrior is not a thing in Standard or Wild anymore (R.I.P. Infinite Armor Druid 2019-2019 no one will miss you).
To be fair though, this card is really bad, and by that I mean that you wouldn't run it in your deck "just in case I face a Warrior or a Druid": it's still a 5 mana 5/5 that requires you a slot in your list and a turn to be played. If you need it that badly (especially now that Tank Up! is no harm) it means that your aggro gameplan isn't going that well. And I'm sure that the Devs balanced Platebreaker to be this way.
On the other side, I think this card is juicy for Combo decks that have limited reach. Imagine for example the Mind Blast Priest vs Odd Warrior matchup: it was a solid 90% win for the latter, right? Anduin's maximum reach was around 30 damage split in two turns and required Alexstrasza's setup, but Odd Warrior was able to stack so much armor that it was almost impossible to kill. Now imagine such a scenario but with Platebreaker: since Odd Warrior can't deal pressure at all, you can easily draw all your deck and set up your combo in the best way possible. It doesn't matter how much armor your opponent has gained through the match, they're suddenly in range.
That being said, I think this card will ever see play in Standard if Warrior will manage to build a strong Control list, but since Garrosh has got so many Tempo tools, I guess Platebreaker will see little play in the nearest future. Cool card, wrong meta (perhaps).
Great card to ramp fast and it's a 4 mana 8/8 .. But your opponent benefits from the 10 mana refill before you, so it's not that great after all.. it reminds me of Duskfallen Aviana
A very good card for my Big rogue in wild :D .. it has a specific card draw effect and also gets a deathrattle effect. Its only issue is that it needs a combo.. I hope we will see deathrattle rogue rise again.
I'm sorry, I've got to ask a really stupid question. I enjoy playing Kovachuts Thief Priest in Wild. Now let's say my opponent has The Lich King on board and I play Mindflayer Kaahrj on him, then proceed to destroy kaahrj with Wretched Reclaimer. I will end up with my own lich king and a second kaahrj.
The question is: will the second kaahrjs deathrattle summon another lich king for me? Same goes for summoning kaahrj through Twilight's Call (or Cube or Embalming Ritual). Would its deathrattle do something? If I understand your comments correctly, that should not work which is really a shame.
"Now you will suffer for Theramore, Garrosh!" - Jaina (FreezeMage) laughs in the corner.
To be honest, it's a great card, but as my quote tells, i fear the overcome of Combodecks, because you have no longer the option to stop them with armor gain...
New Warrior Minion - EVIL Quartermaster
Lackey generators are always strong and even without that effect this one isn´t too bad. So a very solid 4 star card
New Neutral Minion - Cobalt Spellkin

Waxadred
Amazing card for deathrattle Rogue.. I'll try it for sure.
New Priest Spell - Time Rip
That is part of the upside my friend
Platebreaker
Oh, so they’re making cards for Wild now. Nice
Candle Breath
Potential of a 3 mana draws 3 cards.. Greater than Sprint and Arcane Intellect in mage that draws only 2 cards.
New Card Reveal - Platebreaker (ARMOR DESTRUCTION)

Dragon's Hoard
Great meme card.. It gives you a legendary minion from another class so it can enables some new combos and effects.. I love it!
Platebreaker
Combo decks would run this

New Neutral Minion - Platebreaker (Armor Destruction)
Omg, I've been waiting so long for this card. I'm so glad this day has finally come.
Hopefully it'll actually be useful in some meta while it's still available in Standard.

Amber Watcher
This card is insanely good especially in arena..
Veranus
Not a bad card.. It makes enemy minions easy to remove with meapons, Unleash the Hounds, Springpaw, ...
New Neutral Minion - Platebreaker (Armor Destruction)
And in the end they finally print the anti-armor tech card. On Wild this may kill those few Druids and Control Warrior left.
Hot Air Balloon
I think I'll see it only played in arena.. Or maybe it can be played in aggro mech decks.. Not sure about it.
New Card Reveal - Platebreaker (ARMOR DESTRUCTION)
The fact that this card makes you think about armor makes it a good print.
Camouflaged Dirigible
It might be good for combo mech decks but it's too slow..
New Neutral Minion - Platebreaker (Armor Destruction)
Now this is something new and amazing! The bane of Malfurion and Garrosh!
Kronx Dragonhoof
Wuuut !!! Not much to say for this card... it's broken in Galakrond decks. lol
New Neutral Minion - Platebreaker (Armor Destruction)
The perfect tech card vs armor druid or warrior. I thought they´d never add sth like that, but I´m so happy they did
Zul'Drak Ritualist
It's only good against resurecct decks like Big Priest in wild..
Sanctuary
Great early game card but it's mediocre in late game..
