Designers Insight: I wanted to keep the effect pretty low so that Weapons without Attack and/or classes that shouldn't have access to damaging weapons won't have a big upside.
But now, looking back, there are neutral cards that buff your weapon so I think you are right.

The effect feels pretty useless. At best, this is a +1 Attack buff to your weapon, but you can only use it for 1-Attack weapons. Rogue is the only class that consistently uses 1-Attack weapons, and they have much better weapon-buffing cards that don't have the same restriction. I agree with @Turba that a scaled-up version of this card would be much more useful.

I don't like that it is a Crocodile humanoid thing, because such creatures don't exist in Warcraft universe, but i guess you could say it is some kind of Saurok or a species we dont yet know of.
When it comes to the effect, it seems completly okay and could even have other higher Cost verisons printed as a series of similar neutral cards with the same theme. (5-Cost with 3 Attack and 7 or 8-Cost with 4?)

If you read it wrong, read again. Once this dies the Attack changes back to normal. Thoughts?
