    Re: Death Knight Starter Preview - Cold Steel

    seems no one is caring for the equipment here ...
    in the succubus section I already was beaten by 4-5 people ...

    anyway love the 4 cost sword
    has potential with an ally based deck

    but I am curios about the greatsword of the ebon blade
    does it refer to the NEXT turn meaning your opponents turn or YOUR next turn , so that you can play the scenario ben showed with the pay 4 deal 5 , then the next turn pay 3 to keep it and strike again >?

    Those 3 equipments are kinda good, but it's a shame that they're the only 3 equipments in it, and there are only 2 copies of each.

    Re: Death Knight Starter Preview - Cold Steel

    you buy 2 starters and get 4 of each non hero card and 6 ghouls

    anyway there will be more equips in fields of honor that DK can wear

    The next turn means your opponents turn.

    Re: Death Knight Starter Preview - Cold Steel

    Yeah, but still... that's $40.

    I mean there are those that don't see that as a problem but it's still rather pricey.

    (Of course, I'm unemployed so... <_<)

    Re: Death Knight Starter Preview - Cold Steel

    i personally llove all these pieces of equipment. i think its ur next turn for the sword cause it wouldnt make sense to make it 2 cost otherwise might as well as just slap a 5 cost on it. the helm can be insane if used right.


    decks completed:
    1.blood elf paladin sanctity aura deck
    2.tauren boomkin deck
    3.troll survival hunter combo deck

    Re: Death Knight Starter Preview - Cold Steel

    are all starters that expensive in your region -_- ??
    here I payed 25 $ for both mine and a friends drums starter -_-
    I figured I will get the DK starters for roughly the same price
    40 $ is a lot for a starter ....

    If this was the case, the card would say "At the start of YOUR next turn" instead of as it is now (At the start of THE next turn"

    then why bother to split the cost ?
    just so that you can use it as a magma spike ?

    it is a horrible waste of a weapon if you ask me in that case
    it would have been stellar with the at the start of YOUR next turn

    I meant $40 for two. Target's selling the starter early for $20 a pop.

    Re: Death Knight Starter Preview - Cold Steel

    so you drop this on turn 4 and strike? or turn 5 you drop and do nothing for a turn. that's pretty bad imo.

    Re: Death Knight Starter Preview - Cold Steel

    u still have the option to attack with it and destroy it
    but still ...

    I just hope DK will have something that makes good use of items in the grave ...
    maybe the "sumon runeblade" spell will let you attack with weapons from the graveyard ... or something similar

    hmmm we have raids at 20 dolars around here ... hope this won't be too expensive
    I really want to get a couple

    Re: Death Knight Starter Preview - Cold Steel

    if it were playable by warriors then it could be awesome.. as a combo for Mortal Strike, this card is pretty cheap.

    Re: Death Knight Starter Preview - Cold Steel

    The helmet's a good armour.

    But neither of the swords are very good. It's pretty obvious that Ebon Blade would be good if it was your next turn, but as it is, it's just a weird Magma Spike. The other one doesn't even compare to Ring of Trials though, because you have to destroy your ally to use it...that's nothing like Ring of Trials. All it's doing is letting your dude attack the hero for a little bit of extra damage, instead of attacking the opposing ally you want to destroy.



    Props to darknesspwns for the sig
