    Makes almost all control decks reliant on armor dead in the water with just one inclusion of this card in the deck.

    This one might be an over-reaction since armor gain is sort of the whole game plan of some control decks. I would have been happier if it takes like 10 armor off, but if it rids all those nightmares from control warrior mirrors, I'd take this any day.

    A game changer for combo decks for sure.

    At last! The card that destroys the enemy armor! Excellent card in wild against Druid & Warrior. In standard it'll depend on the meta.

    Since i've started playing HS back in GvG. I've seen people commenting about a card like this. Finally 5 years later a Common card version of the concept is released, I don't know if im surprised or scared because I enjoy worrior. But I think this card is needed. 2k Druid.... Totally destroyed😂

    Control worrior, I think it still has a chance. I think this is an amazing card but it depends on the meta. It will be one of the best tech cards to add, along side Mind control, the new Pirate I steal your weapon. Have to wait and see

    It's beautiful.

    I've been staring at this card for 5 hours now.

    In all seriousness this has been a card that's been needed for a LONG time now.

    it's a fair cost card with decent stats, it probably won't be in anyone's main deck list but can be a tech choice if Warrior gets too powerful.

    Oh and Druid, too. Because armor druid was a thing

    Welp, it finally happened.  The ability to destroy an enemy's armor has finally arrived.  Thing is, I still don't think it will see play.  For this to be considered in a decklist, the meta would have to be overflowing with Control Warriors or Paladins with High Priest Thekal, which is not a world I see happening given the cards we know thus far.  This would have been a welcome addition when Druids got massive amounts of armor, but super big armor numbers just isn't the world we live in anymore.  Overall, a neat tech card that could make for some interesting use if they more formally introduce a side deck, but I don't think this will see any play.

      I think Thekal is going to see a little more play and against non-agro warrior, this is almost always good. But, I think some people in the Wild scene might rejoice after seeing this card. I dont Wild much so not sure how much armor a Warrior packs these days but taking armor away keeps Shield Slam out of the picture.
