hearthstone Saviors of Uldum Card Reveal: Splitting Axe

[Lemon1 20]

Shaman gets a new Weapon for Totem decks in a spectacular Lego stop motion reveal video.

 

A new Shaman card has been revealed by the Taiwanese YouTuber and stop-motion animator Jordan Tseng: Splitting Axe!

The new weapon offers synergy with Totems, something we haven't seen Shaman doing much of lately. It could be powerful under the right circumstances, especially if you're able to copy a premium Totem such as Mana Tide Totem or Nightmare Amalgam, but it's not clear that it fits into any existing Shaman deck. Its purpose may become clearer as we see more new cards from the set.

The stop motion Lego reveal video is really spectacular, so do check out the whole thing. It was made in collaboration with Cid Hsiao, who is apparently an official Lego Ambassador - probably the coolest title you can have in 2019. Watch below:

Not convinced by the card, unless a really strong Totem is revealed quickly. 4 mana is too expensive to be consistently sure to duplicate enough good totems to be worth it in my opinion.

The video and the Lego skills, on the other hand, are really awesome.

Ah, if Desert Obelisk was a Totem...
