    It's.....Patches....but you want to draw him.

    They'Re really doubling down on the memes this expansion, aren't they?

    This would have been fantastic if Even Rogue was still around...and it is still a pretty strong card in any class that uses low cost Pirates. Maybe we'll see a return of Raiding Party

    In any case it's Cannon Barrage support and that makes me  N U T

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    This is absolutely disgusting.  The possibility for wild Pirate Warrior to have the god tier opening hand of playing N'Zoth's First Mate on turn 1 and summoning 2 of these and Patches the Pirate.

    6/6 worth of stats in pirates and a 1/3 weapon on turn one. SMH.

    Oh yeah, these Forum Signatures are a thing.

    Similar to Patches the Pirate but obviously not as good as it summons from your hand.

    This is some pretty crazy tempo for pirate decks, some very nice early game aggro cards is what we have been missing for some time now. Works very nice with Skybarge.

    Pirate decks - they get cards in almost every expansion and from time to time they get enough to make a t1 deck. But I doubt it will be this time with so many dragons and board clears. Crazy aggo card, but with severe condition, compared to Patches.

    This is a strong aggro card, but its also dangerous. You can easily dump your whole hand and push for a fast lethal but it also means you already dumped your whole hand. It makes AoE better against you, because they know you're already used your resources and this isn't a super strong value cards, its just got great tempo. that said, in wild, turbo aggro is the only aggro.

    To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of the women.

    Could be scary turn 1, beyond that though it’ll risk overextending a lot of the time. Encourages you to use that one weapon though to draw them early on

    Curious to see how Pirate Warrior would work in this meta. The pirate cards in Standard aren't exactly broken or anything, unlike during the broken Pirate Warrior era years back

    don'T overhype this, a 2/2 really isn't that big of a deal, even when it comes down early

    Reminds me of Heal-Zoolock, which was pretty crazy with the Happy Ghoul shenanigans, but it wasn't nearly as broken as people made it out to be.

    I mean if someone (by someone I mean Rogue or Warrior) really gets the super start with this, the basically just played 3 cards at once, leaving them 1 or 2 in hand, meaning that if you are even somewhat able to deal with this and not have them snowball into a Southsea Captain they're out of ressources and haven't really accomplished much.

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    This in wild, you could theoretically get 6/6 worth of stats on turn one. I fear that if pirate warrior can be a thing in standard, then it will be nuts in wild.

    It's an auto include for any pirate deck and could get some highrolls here and there but it doesn't seem that strong. This doesn't have Charge to pressure them immediatelly and you are emptying your hand pretty fast. If they find a way to clear this and whatever else you played, you will be starved of resources and they will have plenty of time to establish a board, draw their board clears and so on. I can see this both winning the game pretty fast and losing just as fast.

    Not as good as Patches the Pirate but pirates were always about tempo and fast aggro, so this fits nicely.

    Looks good, but not OP. You risk overextending by dropping all of your Pirates right into an AoE. At least Ancharrr isn't pathetically out-of-place anymore.

    More comparable to Happy Ghoul than patches, but MUCH MUCH easier to play cause playing a pirate is much easier than healing your face..

    Might even find it's way to other decks jsut by how powerful it is to cheat stats warlock zoo might run pirates just for this card.

    People are getting hyped, but this is definitely weaker than Patches the Pirate. But in tandem with cards like Ancharrr and the Pirate synergy cards like Skybarge, I think Pirate Warrior might actually be a deck. It will probably not run Galakrond, and leave that strategy for Midrange/ Tempo Warrior. But face is the place for Pirates, which I think is healthy for the metagame.

    In a pirate deck, this is basically a 0 mana 2/2 pirate. That is good. This will see play as long as pirates are good. This will also be an amazing tempo play in the early game.

    This will be a staple in all pirate decks forever.

    Like we saw from the stream, this has the potential to be nasty, but is I think very high-roll dependent. I'm sure Pirate Warrior/Rogue will give her a whirl, just not sure how truly good it'll be.

    A Patches the Pirate that you actually want to draw. This card will make pirate decks early game really annoying with the possiblity of 5/5 or more in stats on turn 1 just like with Happy Ghoul in Warlock (with the coin). Also this time we don't have Golakka Crawler to save us. Pirates are comming for our dragon booty!

    More dragons? Yes please!

    2 in hand on turn 1 play the warrior pirate that adds more to your hand and get another they resolve in some weird manner and you have 4 minions on board. Combining this with the cannon is going to happen for sure also a bit better than current patches since he doesn't have charge

    Good when dropped early, but you really need to have reliable draw engine, which is a hard task considering where you want to put this card. I guess it will find it's place in Wild.

    This is an excelent card for Pirate Warrior. Maybe, this card will also find a place in the wild version of the deck. And this card is way more balanced than pre-nerf Patches the Pirate.

    When patches came out I gave it 5 starts. I was right, a strong board presence and a tutor effect turn 1 are insane.

    This does not have a tutor effect. but there a 2 of them. and are 2/2.

    If you can pull  off at least one of these in 1/4 games turn one, they are already raising your win rate enough to be considered meta defining.

    I think this card will deserve some stats nerf. Don't know why it is so strong. On the other hand I believe I saw that you cannot summon both for free with just one minion (may be wrong) so that is that :/
