This is a Tempo (Quest) Warrior card, and it's nice to see that archetype getting some new support. I think this will make a viable strategy. Very curious to see the Invoke cards for this class.
Has potential to be broken. Warrior is limited when it comes to buffing minions so the ability to buff up 4 minions without using Magnetic or having the minions be damaged is great for Warrior. The hero power also benefits weapon-filled decks and this would be great for Aggro, Tempo, and Quest Warrior decks.
Works well with the Quest, actually. Might even make it playable.
Might be a little hard to use the quest, since you wouldn't want to replace your Quest hero power with Galakrond's but you also wouldn't want to lose Galakrond's Battlecry.
Yeah... I think this was planned. SoU gave us nine new quests, but the reward for each one is an upgraded hero power. DoD gives us five E.V.I.L. Heroes, but playing it replaces your hero power with a different (upgraded) one.
So... you can combine a quest with a hero card, but you're going to be throwing away some of the benefit of one or the other.
It's really unfortunate that this Galakrond has so much synergy with Hack the System while having the ultimate anti-synergy of completely overwriting the hero power.
Hack the System is such a cool quest that doesn't seem like it will be worth playing in DoD either since this Galakrond is so strong.
Don't forget, the hero power is used each time you play a card with invoke. While it my be weak on it's own, it could prove to be a powerful tempo tool throughout the course of a game.
Looks like this Galakrond could be very strong in a charge/face warrior deck. And I think it will help to create a strong taunt warrior with Tomb Warden and Armagedillo. Not sure if i like it right now cuz I would have to see new options for control warrior since it will fall down after the new year rotation.
Damn, I didn't think Dr. Boom will get a competition before he rotates, but I am like daaaaaamn, after I saw this one.

Not as good as Dr. Boom, but can be good in aggro War and will be your finisher. But this time, i think, this card can be possible not seen play, it s good but not constracted level good.
Thought exactly the same!!

Well it's over
Aggro warrior is currently my favorite deck to play. This will be an auto include.
Galakronds are so broken, all of them.

HP is bonkers if you consider it is activated by Invoke.
This means Invoke cards are decent or even good Tempo in Warrior.
Geeezzzzzz this looks like pretty strong! quest warrior for the win ;p
Not if you think of the HP benefits with Invoke
Now bring in Brann for Wild and go crazy on Turn 10.

Of all the Galakronds revealed thus far, this one has me the most excited.
Not only because of the Smorc factor, but drawing 4 minions (not cards) and buffing them while getting a 5/2 weapon, that’s nuts.
Gromm, Leeroy, Kokron Elite, plus all the support Enrage Warrior got in SoU. I might actually play Warrior this expansion
This would be one hell of a play and draw 4 rush/charge minions or even 4 taunts. Going to be very interesting to see how this card plays out.
Now THAT's a Galakrond

Struggle with Heroic Galakrond's Awakening? I got your back :

Man this would be insane if it drew Zilliax or Grom.
Best Galakrond so far! Hoping to put my Aggro warrior in play!
