IGN has revealed a new Warrior Legendary card, Remornia, Living Blade! This card is a minion, and a weapon!
- When you play the minion initially, rush allows you to attack right away.
- After attacking, the weapon can immediately be swung.
- The stats of this card transfer between transformations, so each durability lost will remove health, and each damage taken as a minion will remove durability.

I doubt this sees play. Warrior doesn’t really need this, especially not on turn 7 since cards like Shield Shatter exist. You would much rather play Rokara on 7
Floor (likely) scenario:
Edit: Oh wait, I didn't read the bounceback on the weapon, to a creature again!
Even the floor scenario is very good!
It would be helpful if you embedded the reveal video. Now it is rather hidden under IGN hyperlink that most people probably ignore
Will the weapon also immune, if you have Spirit of the Rhino?
Interesting question. When Remornia, Living Blade turns into a weapon, it is not a minion anymore, so it should lose the buff provided by Spirit of the Rhino.
On the other hand, I am questioning if there might be shenanigans like Yogg-Saron, Hope's End going to the other side of the board and casting random spells for your opponent.
I am 99% sure the answer is no, the weapon won't be Immune.
I think the underlying question is which enchantments make sense on both minions and weapons, and whether they get carried around between forms even when they don't do anything. Its pretty safe to assume stat buffs will get passed around, and probably things like poisonous and lifesteal too (they're not very easy to apply in warrior, but rogue can do the science).
For the specific topic at hand, generalised to cover all sources of immunity: I guess it depends on what the immunity would translate to on the weapon. It could either mean nothing, treat durability as health and essentially act as "this weapon does not lose durability", or it applies the immunity to the hero when attacking. Likewise, what happens in reverse if Paralytic Poison is applied while Remornia is a weapon?
A Hearthstone dev answered a lot of questions in this Twitter thread:

Summary: Remornia keeps all stats and enchantments when she changes forms, even enchantments like Taunt that don’t make sense for a weapon—in that case the taunt has no effect while she’s a weapon, but it works again when she swaps back to being a minion.
Boring
Could you elaborate a bit more please?
No just my opinion I don't need to explain myself to anyone.
I'm just not a Blizzard Yes man sheep.
It is your opinion, yes, but you're expressing it in a forum. A forum, by definition, is a place of exchange.
There are cards I don't like myself (for example, I think Baroness Vashj feels like a on-trick pony right now), but it's not like sharing/not sharing my thoughts makes me a yes man/outcast.
I think Remornia, Living Blade is far from a boring card: it's actually the very first iteration we've ever received of a card that can keep switching between weapon and minion. We can discuss about its powerlevel being high or low (many people compared it to Crabatoa, which I think is reasonable), but come on: how is Remornia boring?
I have my reasons but I prefer not to waste my time explaining to someone who wouldn't agree anyways.
Especially if I'm being downvoted for a harmless opinion. I will just state my opinion and move on to the next reveal I could care less what others think of my opinion.
I would like to hear your reasons, doesn't matter if I agree or not: who knows, maybe you could change my mind.
The conversation has become useless at this point, which is a shame, but I hope you'll be a little more open with the next reveals!
I think your opinoin is dumb. I do not need to explain myself to anyone.
I am just not a DoctorDoom Yes man sheep.
It is pointless to share your opinion if you are not going to elaborate.
Yes my opinoin may be dumb but my opinion is great.
I think your opinion is dumb. I do not need to explain myself to anyone.
Is it just me or can you get 3x 4 attack swings in 1 turn?
Minion hit, weapon hit, minion hit then finish turn with weapon equipped.
Mmh... I don't think. Look at it this way: even if you equip another weapon during the same turn, you can only attack once, unless the weapon itself (Fool's Bane) says differently .
As I see it, things will go like this:
Edit: is it possible that I misread your comment? I don't understand the downvotes :/
You misread, as I did "3/4 attacks". He said "you get 3 (three) 4 (damage) attacks swings", so the same as you: 1 minion + 1 weapon + 1 minion = 3
Yeah, it was probably it.
It's okay :) I think you said the same thing as me
