I mean, sure...but so is Assassin's Blade in Rogue (and its attack can also be buffed with Deadly Poison). Assassin's Blade can't attack multiple times of course, but Warrior had a 5 mana 3/4 weapon called Fool's Bane which could attack multiple times as long as it was hitting minions (couldn't hit face). Much like Assassin's Blade it wasn't really anything special. Demon hunter as a whole is strong, but I feel like they're being carried pretty hard by their earlygame 1-3 mana cards. If your opponent is already at 15 health and the DH is at 25 health when they equip warglaives, sure, warglaives is pretty good at sealing the game in that scenario. But in the opposite scenario where the opponent is at 25 health and the demon hunter is at 15...warglaives aren't that good. This is why I'm a little surprised to see Warglaives hit rather than some of their early power. (Battlefiend, Satyr Overseer, the new Twin Slice, Umberwing). EDIT: UltimaterializerX posted... mc, those stats are out of context unless youre looking at high level play. Eh. There are some cards and decks that perform better at high legend like egg warrior, but I don't think these two are really going to be on the list. The one thing that will impact the drawn winrate of any expensive card in DH is that they tend to mess up outcast--they're hard to get out of your hand, so you can't activate all the outcasts to the right of those cards. So...maybe the cards are a little stronger than the stats suggest, but their interaction with the class mechanic makes their performance numbers a bit lower than they would be in other classes? That said, the versions of DH that still run Priestess of Fury, Priestess still manages to have decent winrate statistics (despite being a card that gets cut from most DH decks these days). --- Cats land on their feet.
