Previous availability[]
- Regular Gladiator's Longbow could also be obtained as a first-time reward for first time reaching Platinum 10 and Diamond 10 in Ranked mode from April 1, 2020 to March 25, 2021 (or as a reward of Climbing the Ranks (6/10) and (8/10) achievements).
Strategy[]
This card's Immune effect means that it can be used to tackle minions without taking damage, clearing a path for your heavy hitters to strike at the enemy hero, or to take out opposing minions that greatly threaten you, such as the Core Hound. It can also provide a useful form of direct damage for finishing the enemy hero. However, the card's high cost should be considered.
Bugs[]
- When charging your hero into a suicide attempt with the Bow, the "skull" symbol will show up despite the fact that your hero is Immune.[1]
Lore[]
In World of Warcraft, the Gladiator's Longbow is the top PvP reward bow available to competitors each season. Each season, there is a different adjective before it, such as the Wrathful Gladiator's Longbow or the Cataclysmic Gladiator's Longbow.
Trivia[]
- The artwork for this card comes from the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game "Blood of Gladiators" series, for the card Merciless Gladiators Crossbow of the Phoenix.
- The card art actually depicts a crossbow.

Patch changes[]
Year of the Gryphon rotation (2021-03-30): Moved from Classic to Legacy set.- Patch 6.2.0.15181 (2016-10-20): Gladiator's Longbow now properly prevents damage caused by Explosive Trap. Prior to Patch 5.0.0.12574 (2016-04-24) this weapon's Immune effect would not prevent damage from triggered effects or Secrets such as Explosive Trap.[2][3] This was attempted to be fixed in Patch 5.0.0.12574 by making Gladiator's Longbow have a Proposed Attack Event trigger that makes the attacking hero Immune; however, Explosive Trap is also a Proposed Attack Event trigger, meaning the Dominant Player Bug determined which one triggers first - so you had about a 50% chance of blocking the Explosive Trap damage.[4]
