If the Librams turn out to be Holy, then this will be GREAT
Tutors for you Librams. 'Nough said
Ribbit
Wow adding a good 1 drop tutor, I like it, I feel like between this and secrets, we'll be having a good tutor, thin your deck paladin which you can then drop a big drop afterword.
Draw my 0 mana libram of wisdom
4 Mana 7/7
Solid one drop?
For what I've been told they are, so yeah, incredible there.
Specific tutors can be brocken. Blizzard needs to be careful with this one
Simple. Efficient. Auto-include.
Does Paladin even deserve a card this good?
I tried having fun once.
It was awful.
are Libram spell hoy? in this case it's a great card
I am 69 years old and still reach Legend
I really like this card. Like so much. Love the flavour and the use.
I mean this is a great one drop. I think Paladin has some of the best 1 mana plays in the game at this point.
He even reads a book... Way to drive it home blizzard!
10/5 Stars. Reminder: All Libram spells are holy, so it fits in Libram paladin already. Even then it will still synergize really well with Dude Paladin as well, because of it pulling Invigorating Sermon and Pursuit of Justice. Just an universially good card that will see plenty of play.
RNG is only fun as long as there is a 50/50 chance of getting something really good or trash level of bad. If RNG always results in something good, then it's not fun.
Holy moly, this is a cheaper Novice Engineer that tutors a specific card. Why can't any of my favorite classes get draw this good.
Carrion, my wayward grub.
good card for drawing your deck the stats aint so great tho
This is that tutor/card draw libram paladin needs. Definitely going to see a lot of play.
paladins, like always run some holy spells in their deck. therefore, this is a better Crimson Sigil Runner no brain 5 star card.
Solid 1 drop, potential secret draw?
At this point I have spent too much money on these games to quit.
Now pass me another pack, and lets see what I pull.
1 mana draw a card with tutor potencial on a body for a class with restricted card draw. Easy 5 stars.
can be good in opening hand but i dont think this is better then the others 1 drop pally already have
good value for first turn makes it excellent
good
Kenny's little poet. 😇
Direct draw is always a good thing, but not sure if this card fits any archetype yet
Many of Paladin spells are Holy. If you're not interested in Libram spam strategy, it might tutor some other spells.
OBLIVION!
Powerful Holy Pally support
Rogue DH
wow holy spells are holy moly
Tutor Draws for 1 mana must be good

Auto include
Yay... more support for libram paladin... I'm so excited.... 😒
TREMBLE before.... the most legendary dragon that ever existed!
draw for paladin is always nice
Paladin was needing a spell drawcard, this will make things get more reliable in a lot of decks.
Wow, I don't even hate the 1/1 stats.
Draw!
Great tutor card for libram pally
Absolutely bonkers, will be played in every Paladin deck until it rotates.
This is basically Crimson Sigil Runner but doesn't require the outcast effect. Given how Paladin doesn't have too much card draw, they'd love a one-drop to open their game and draw a card. The only Paladin deck that might not run Knight of Anointment is Secret Paladin since they don't want to draw their secrets, but I'd say it's close in that deck.
For glory, honor, and gold!
Deck thinning! Body is a bit weak, but i guess will see play regardless
This will take two slots in every paladin deck until it rotates.
Those 2-mana holys better be good.
Even without thinking about as a tutor, it's a 1 mana 1/1 that draws a card which is pretty good.
Holy sh... spell :) Great, cause it's 1 mana and draw a card - in Holy Palladin decks must have
No, they don't.
Chumbawumba is the worst band name.
One mana card draw. If you have something specific you're looking for, maybe you can talk yourself into playing this card. Not to mention that this old guy looks like his name should be "Knight of Ointment."
I don't want to cure cancer; I want to turn people into dinosaurs.
Gerat one drop now we need to see all the holy spells
Fits into so many different decks. Easy 5 stars.
Arena > Wild > Standard
It draws cards. And pally can barely draw now that Salhet's Pride is gone.
So its certainly going to see play if nothing more than the fact that its a 1 mana draw option.
Just a really solid 1-drop. Holy synergy in paladin will be great.

libram libram libram
1 mana tutor draw.
This will see play.
This has to see play, it's insane value.
Papa Nurgle wants to share his gifts.
Great card. Will see play for the next year easily
Simple, yet effective.
Tutors are always good. This will find a home.

Okay 1 drop, good tutoring effect, should see play
Struggle with Heroic Galakrond's Awakening? I got your back :
Bad card.
Cheap draw, tutoring, paladin only card - what more to ask for?
1 mana tutor. This weirdly reminds me of Patches
This is very good, even more if the librams become holy spells.
Can add to pure paladin.
very nice one drop value wise
-=alfi=-
Very nice for its costs
I'm not online
it's just your imagination
1 mana 1/1 draw a card.
5/5
By The Holy Light!
Terrible card
Auto Include in almost every Paladin deck. Bonkers with Librams.
Challenge me ... when you're ready to duel a god!
Are (all) secrets Holy spells?
1mana draw a spell on stick. Ok I guess.

Not bad at all, Paladins could use some cheap draw. And will probably have Holy spells in their decks anyway.
awesome 1 drop
Paladin get silver hand recruits and secret support. Why do we have this? The only good use I can see is to tutor Invigorating Sermon
Murlocs <3
Holy cow!
A low cost tutor is a good tutor. He can bring back some librams, and you always want a turn 1 in libram decks, so even better.
Decent tutor, draws you a libram, but nothing to impressive

Cheap tutor effect - seems great.
One of the best cards for sure. Can be played in a variety of decks pretty powerful.
good
Will probably be in all paladin decks
A fact that a lot of people seem to be ignoring in this thread. I doubt Paladins are ready to give up almost all other spells just to make the Libram draws more consistent.
1 mana draw card plus a body. Very strong card
great one drop. play a card draw a card.
Good card and for 1 mana. You don't need much more and since almost all pala spell are "holy" is an autoinclude in almost all deck
1 mana cheaper than Novice Engineer and it tutors a specific card type. Awesome.
Even though the stats aren't amazing, the ability to draw one of Paladin's many amazing spells makes this card very good
A 1/1 with a tutor effect is pretty nice. Good one drop for any Paladin running holy spells
English is not my native language, so please excuse occasional mistakes
Very strong minion for Paladin, drawing any Libram is great and there are still so many Holy spells to get anyway.
I say it most every time, targeted draw is good. This won't be the best 1-drop, but it will be a good mid to late game draw to go fishing for the spell you need.
Unfortunately, common sense isn't as common as it should be.
Ah yes, the last thing paladins needed: cheap tutoring card draw. Between the librams and the plethora of buffs the class has access to, Knight of Anointment will virtually always see play for the next 2 years.
Rating cards on coolness factor rather than predicting power because I like screwing up rating averages (and because I suck at predicting real power levels, but we'll ignore that LUL)
Wins per class (2/6/22): DH-197; Druid-996; Hunter-91«60; Mage-1056; Paladin-1126; Priest-746; Rogue-961; Shaman-1095; Warlock-871; Warrior-906
Cheaper Novice Engineer, it's more of a question of "why do I NOT want to run this card?"
Hey, you heard about that Mario guy?
Well well well, looks like we have our tutor for Invigorating Sermon. But that's not even the best card that Knight of Anointment can draw, given how Librams are supposedly gonna have the Holy tag as well. This will be ridiculously good, as if Librams needed enough support.
Incredibly strong, which is a shame because I'm so very tired of Libram Paladin...
1 mana draw, great card
good card
1/1 seems weak at first glance, but Novice Engineer saw play from time to time in control, combo decks. For one less mana, you get to draw a specific school spell. Nice cycle, I would say.
OBLIVION!
Tutor check, 1 mana draw check, in a class that lacks draw check. Will be in every single Paladin deck.
Put your faith in the Light!
Card draw for Libram Paladin. Powerful upgrade for an already powerful deck.
Libram Paladin
Solid one drop, and fantastic for librams.
It's funny, Paladin has so many Holy spells that this won't ever reliably tutor anything. Still a Crimson Sigil Runner+, that's crazy.
5 star, will see play in every meta Paladin deck for sure.
nice tutor card
Great 1-drop and top deck. Also by the looks of things all Paladins are going to have some Holy spells, so probably this will find it's way into most Paladin decks.
1 drop draw a spell. Good value.
Good drop 1! Even great!
For The HORDE!
Holy spell draw, Batman! The card draw is nice, especially for one mana. The first thing I want to do with this card is find a way to abuse the targeted tutoring effect to draw the exact card that I want. Unfortunately, I'm having a hard time thinking of a paladin holy spell that has a lot of abuse potential.
Difficult to ascertain exactly how good this is without knowing the full list of Holy spells, but if there's at least a few good ones (like the Librams?) then this is a solid draw card.
