Notes
- Klaxxi Amber-Weaver's Battlecry can activate whether C'Thun is in the hand, deck, or battlefield, or even already dead.[1]
- This card's Battlecry takes into account buffs such as
Abusive Sergeant when deciding whether to activate.[2] The card will highlight yellow if the Battlecry's conditions are met.[3] - Klaxxi Amber-Weaver will not be included in Arena picks (along with C'Thun and all other related cards).[4] However, they may still appear in Arena matches through random effects.[5]
Strategy
Klaxxi Amberweaver is a very strong 4-mana cost minion with a Health bonus, provided your C'thun has 10 or more Attack, which is easily attainable. These stats combined with Mark of the Wild can grant you a massive 6/12 Taunt minion, which the enemy will probably struggle to deal with. However, if you choose not to grant him the buff, it is still useful because of the amount of attacks it can carry out without death. Priests might have problems with destroying him, as he is immune to both Shadow Word: Pain and Shadow Word: Death.

Lore
- "I tell you now, because you have earned this warning.
- Your gods are not our gods, outsider.
- If the Old Ones ever return, we mantid will once again stand by their side.
- The wisest among you will do the same." - Kil'ruk the Windreaver
The Klaxxi are elders of the mantid race, originally created by the Old Gods, now native to Pandaria. Worshipping Y'Shaarj as their creator, the Klaxxi await with endless patience the return of their dark master. However, they are willing to lend their aid to any Old God, including C'Thun.[6] This is partly due to Hearthstone's combination of multiple timelines, since Y'Shaarj is dead in the contemporary main Warcraft timeline.[7]
This section uses content from Wowpedia.- The Klaxxi are mantid elders untouched by the corruption and insanity that has overtaken the remainder of the mantid swarm. They seek to replace the corrupted empress and reluctantly accept the aid of the player.
- With the recent discovery of the Heart of Y'Shaarj by
Garrosh Hellscream, the Klaxxi have allied themselves with the Warchief and his Kor'kron Guard. The paragons have been given their own chamber within the Underhold and will stand against anyone who dares enter Garrosh's Inner Sanctum, where the revived heart was moved.
