Template:Val'anyr strategy
Val'anyr is a very strong card in a minion-based deck, giving you infinite value in buffs and weapon charges so long as you have minions in your hand. Be wary of Silence or Transform effects, as these can neutralize your weapon when it's a minion buff.
Like all in-hand buffs, Val'anyr's effect works well on Rush and Charge minions for immediate effect.
Some minions have bonuses when buffed, such as 
Paragon of Light and 
Meanstreet Marshal.
Val'anyr can also be duplicated by cards like 
Echoing Ooze and Doppelgangster. If Val'anyr buffs a Magnetic minion, its effect can be brought back with 
Kangor's Endless Army.
When you manage to get 2 Val'anyr on the same card, once the first is equiped, it will be instantly destroyed by the second one. Baron Rivendare and 
Spiritsinger Umbra can greatly increase this effect.
Val'anyr's effect can be repeated by using 
Hoard Pillager and 
Rummaging Kobold, effectively giving 4 more weapons.
Da Undatakah can be a devastating card combined with Val'anyr. Since it can obtain the same effect, when destroyed, either it can give a minion +8/+4 or +4/+2 two times. After that, you can destroy the equiped Val'anyr to further increase any minion's power; technically giving +12/+8.
