This trinket is too strong as an avenge 2.

It’s not even Avenge, it’s attack 2. Nothing even needs to die for it to proc over and over.
And I agree it’s stupid.
I got first place with it this morning and it wasn’t even close. I even bought a spell to golden a tough tusk so I could easily add a third to my board. Didn’t lose a fight after getting the jar.

Yeah, its far and away the strongest trinket with even the tiniest bit of set up.

The thing you have to remember is that it’s a combat buff. It’s a decent trinket but it’s a less powerful version of Bristlebach. WF and Cleave will negate the power of the trinket easily.
Tell me how attack two times is less impact that avenge two times, because I’m not seeing it.
The point isn’t the stats, it’s infinite divine shields.
So there’s very little of that, but if you’ve set your board right you can very much ruin that as a counter.
Remember you’re still buffing massive minions that then get DS four or five times over.

With Bristlebach you are getting BOTH. I can setup a board to refresh my DS’s just like you can with the jar but get the massive stats at the same time. I don’t mind minions dying because any good QB build is going to be split at the end anyway so losing those utility minions is all part of the plan.
You can go with either though depending on your luck in the tavern. Overall though it’s not anymore powerful than playing a Bristlebach into your comp.
No, you’re not getting ANYTHING unless minions are dying.
Nothing without death. Bristlebach gets sniped all the time, but jar lasts as long as you have minions to attack.
There’s no world where Bristlebach is on a par with jar. Not even remotely close.
Attack 2 play a blood gem > Avenge 2 play a blood gem.
I’ve played both extensively, and you’re just wrong here. Not saying the bristle is bad, just saying attack>avenge by a large margin.
I believe they mean with both Bristlebach AND the jar of gems.
But yeah, I meant attack and wrote avenge in the intro. Avenge would probable be fine. Attack twice is just broken.

That’s what I believe as well.
I mean, Illidan attacks with his shields and then replaces them just from hero power when it’s not avenge.
