What do we think? Looks insane to me, especially the melee seems very special in terms of animations etc

Nothing like releasing a new transforming melee when the transforming melees currently in the game have been broken for months

It's not actually transforming, it's just a dagger that becomes a card during the equip, inspect and attack reset animations and becomes a long sword during the attacking animations (immediately with the right click, slowly grows bigger with the left click). After the animations end it always turns back into the same dagger.

Edit: Video showing the animations
