Nice stats for it's cost, and it's a pretty strong effeect.

Paladin: Great for Libram/buff Paladin. Will see a lot of play. Looking forward to experimenting around with High Abbess Alura already!

Priest: As the reveal showed, it's really risky for priest. It's probably best in a tempo priest deck with a lot of buffs. This is also really good with Gift of Luminance.

well High Abbess Alura, we can say: "We expect great things from you."

Okay as pally main have high hope for this card since we were given turalyon. 4 mana 3/6 is best stats, and on PP they are pushing midrange buff or sort so this hopefully see play. Now only pall-rior legendary to be revealed..

This is really interesting. I think Paladins will definitely play this more than priests just because priests have way too many removal spells. Being able to pull a Libram of Hope out of your deck on turn 4/5 can be game winning. Or even pulling out a Libram of Wisdom or Hand of A'dal is good enough for this to see play. 

Seems better for Paladin than Priest mainly because of all the removal spells Priest has.  You could try to run a Priest with solely buff cards, but that still seems a bit difficult.  Paladin has more high quality buff cards that also don't have the symmetrical effects some Priest cards carry (like Breath of the Infinite or Plague of Death).

I really don't see this being a thing.

Basicallly every Paladin or Priest deck has to run spells that don't want to get pulled by this. Even in  Paladin, where there's basically no straight-up negative effects you wouldn't want this to pull something like Libram of Justice of Consecration because 9/10 times it would be wasted.

Even if, hypothetically, we can build a Paladin or Priest deck that runs ONLY buffs (or other benefitial spells) it would be for a single 4-drop with a one-time effect.

I can't see this being played legitimately in any deck...at least not with the current cards.

Man Paladin really is getting the short end of the stick...again. Let's hope Pure Paladin is good enough with some of the new additions.

Clearly great in a Paladin deck full of buffs, but I don't see how this works in Priest at all. Yes, there are lots of buffs, but are you planning to run a Priest deck without any removal spells? Maybe that's possible, but I've tried Minion/Tempo Priest on and off as they've tried to provide tools to make it work, and pretty consistently it disappoints. Perhaps the Paladin-Dual Class cards will change that, but I'm skeptical.

I want to like this, but it looks so inconsistent. In Paladin, it could definitely high roll with a strong spell like Libram of Hope, but it can low roll hard with something like Libram of Justice on an empty board. In Priest, it's a similar deal where you could just kill it with one of your single-target removals like Shadow Word: Pain or wipe your own board with Plague of Death.

I guess you could build your deck exclusively with either self-targeting spells OR AoEs, but that seems like a big restriction for either class.

Turn 4 libram of hope.

But seriously, this is a card you can build your deck around, not completly but if you put spells that would mostly be good to cast then it could work. For example put more libram of hope, blessing of kings and pharaoph's blessing in it. 
And even if you cast a libram of justice it's no the end of the world.
Now priest has less buff and more removal, however things like "death" cannot target this so there is that.

You better make sure you stocked up on buff cards for your deck and not damaging ones, as the video pointed out. Looks great for Libram, and I'm sure even more craziness in wild. 

Shadow Word: Pain Kappa.

Given the ability of Scholomance Paladin to krunk out the biggest of bois in the metahaus, I think it's possible to run this in a buff deck. You have to forgo spells like Subdue, but that's alright if you can slap down your buff cowboys before the other dude in LibRam Ranch does, right?

I like these stats on 4 mana minions!

So Paladin and Priest both have cheap spells that can be used to activate this minion's spellburst.

currently Paladin's are running the Libram package, with the Libram of Wisdom being so easily discounted and being able to return to hand it can be very easy for this minion to have this buff applied and then play either Libram of Justice or Libram of Hope for a massive swing turn.

Priests currently have Whispers of EVIL and Power word: Shield as a means to activate this minions effect on curve, and they're glut of buff spells means you can make this 3/6 into a 5/9 with life steal with Apotheosis, for example.

However, because this minion's text wants spells to be focused on her, you'll have to build your deck around her so she doesn't accidentally kill herself with say shadow word pain or subdue. Despite needing a deck built around her she will see home in Paladin and Priest decks in standard, I believe.

In the Arena it's not likely you'll get spells to activate her ability, but her stats aren't terrible

I could see this being run in a Paladin deck with 1-mana secrets such as Redemption as the spellburst activator to pull out the buffs.  Throw in some sticky minions with divine shield and there is value to be had.

An interesting card. Not very useful in any deck that runs board wipes, so potential in res priest is probably limited.

Has potential, but requires both cheap enablers and large payoffs to be really strong, so this is unlikely to be a buildaround.

Shadow Word: Death can target It?

Can be played in an hypothecally tempo/Buff priest, but i don't have high hopes on that card.

It’s hard to see this seeing that much play, given that Paladin already struggles enough against a big board, so having to go without the only real board clears they have is kind of a big deal

this card is nuts and stupidly broken with the coin.  it needs some build around because you won't be playing targeted removal, but I think both classes are capable of doing that even if it's not the optimal deck.

Buff paladin should be a thing and thats where I expect this to shine.  you can even highroll Libram of Hope if you're playing a deck with it and you might have cheap activators with the reduced libram buff.  

People are saying you can't run AOE but I don't see why.  A 'free' consecration/holy nova is still good.

Buff/Cube priest can also be a thing.  Priest will suffer much more than paladin from lack of targeted removal but they can run more removal on a stick (the new card and maybe even the 4/4 dragon)

Its surely a build around card, but in the right deck its not possible to ignore how powerful this card can become.

For priest its a little tighter, since priest has better target spells against the opponent. But for paladin, this is perfect, there being plenty of heavy spells in paladin that wouldn't mind being casted for free.

Theres some shenanigans with Tip the Scales somewhere, just saying.

Maybe you run murloc paladin with tip the scales using wandmaker and vulpera scoundrel as your only spells. You would need to cut hand of adal though.

For Paladin: 4 mana 4/7 with battlecry: restore 8 health and summon an 8/8 with taunt and divine shield.

For Priest: 5 mana 3/0 with battlecry: add a random Priest minion to your hand.

Seems legit.

So your first buff triggers the second?
In those 2 classes, that could be both fun and dangerously potent, as its basically 2 for 1.

I like it - because i think my Buff Priest will finaly be a thing this expansion :)

Very Nice stats for 4 Mana and the ability could work realy good - Paladin has lots of Buffs so i guess it will be good there too. 

Could be useful to cheat out big buffs or Libram of Hope, but too risky for me. You don’t want to waste an AoE or draw cards like Subdue or Penance.

Obviously good in paladin. Might be useful in buff priest, but a priest with no removal?

I HIGHLY doubt that this will see any Play in Priest.

You'd have to run no/very few Removal Spells for this to work somewhat. And Priest without Removal, well... sucks.

And also, wouldn't this Card be in Conflict with the very Decks it is meant for? Like, you want big Buffs to hit this, which means that your Deck will be slower, which means that you'll need Removal. But you can't run Removal, because you're playing High Abbess Alura.

Nice stats and pretty strong effeect. Can be used in Paladin (with libran or other buff) or in Tempo Priest. Need a little deckbuilding to ensure to cast a decent spell

Love it and it's presentation video. Too bad I'm not playing Priest nor Paladin any more

Seems good, but needs a specifically built deck

Kinda hard to build around, but looks decent in Libram Paladin.

You need to take care while building your deck, but this basically says draw a card from your deck and play it. That's a good effect.

Good Paladin card.

amazing stats for something that is meant to survive turns, looks great for buff paladin

This card is nuts! You can cheat so much mana with it, especially if copying it. Crazy build-around card.

If a buff-oriented list can survive the meta without requiring defensive spells, then this card will be a 5/5.

But I'm not sure a buff only list will be strong enough in either class to make this reach it's full potential.

Nevertheless, there are going to be salty games (on both ends) where this card hits the nuts or just kills itself.

Can priest run a deck without removals?

Better in paladin than priest due to the high removal the latter often runs.

Well, Blessed Champion, Pharaoh's Blessing, Blessing of Authority, Blessing of Kings are great cards to include in your paladin deck. The problem is, you can hardly include debuffs and control cards. But this could help greedy, top-heavy decks. If you include enough buff spells, you can even justify a Shirvallah, the Tiger!

If you can play on curve and spellburst right after for a big buff spell from deck, it's terrific. Problem is, with too many steps, the pieces have a tendency to come all out of order; you may draw your buffs, or spellburst a small buff or never draw this at all. When it goes off, it's fireworks, otherwise, it's a subpar deck.

High Abbess Alura doesn't look like a Mage, but Magehunter isn't terribly sad about that.

I love it in my wild buff deck

God tier card in Paladin.

Buff paladins a priests maybe come with this.

Another libram generator for some Kael'thas Sunstrider shenanigans

I'm afraid this will be so much better for paladin than priest, and that's sad. Priests deserve nice things too.

High potential, not something I can really look at and think "Oh, this would be perfect in X".  But I'm sure someone will find a broken deck to run this in.

Play a 1-cost and then hopefully draw Divine Kings.

Really good with a 0 mana spell to trigger the spellburst, which both classes now have. Priest gets Raise Dead and Paladin gets First Day of School.

In Paladin, I see this making the most sense in some Libram Paladins as you also have 0 mana copies of Libram of Wisdom to trigger and potentially get a free Libram of Hope. The potential issue with Alura in Libram Paladin is that you might pull Libram of Justice, which is a crucial card for the archetype needed for more specific circumstances. 

In Priest, I see Cube Priest making Alura work with Raise Dead to pull out Psyche Split or Grave Rune earlier to push more tempo. This does mean the archetype might not be able to run removal spells like Penance or Shadow Word: Death, but I think the deck can shift to be faster to compensate, as Alura already does this.

Overall, Alura is a great legendary that requires some deck alterations for great chances at cheating out spells for free on their intended targets most of the time.

Just put this, Wandmaker and Tip the Scales in your murloc deck and you're good to go.

Looks super interesting, can't wait to see all of the fun things that can be done with it.

Might work in a buff deck built to support it, otherwise it's nothing special in my opinion. Too slow and random to create any real impact.

Another deckbuilding puzzle for me to run my head into over and over if I open this one up.
