    Couuld be cool with Mask of C'thun...and pretty much nothing else (except maybe Grand Finale). I'm not too sure about a 7-drop that requires you to have another specific card in hand in order to be of use.

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    I mean yeah you could play this for fun with Pyroblast but i guess the most effective this will be is with Flamestrike or maybe Mask of C'thun.

    Very reminiscent of Dragoncaster, but with no condition. Great card.

    I'm guessing this will be randomly targeted so you need to make sure it casts spells that specify enemies to get the best use. I think it can be good, but will need a bit of a set up to be most effective.

    Unfortunately, common sense isn't as common as it should be.

    This effect could be game breaking. You want to hit something around the 4 mana range at the lowest amount, but will often hit something at 7 or 10. Probably don't want to run this with Pyro since you don't control where the spell goes. Something like Flamestrike or Mask of C'Thun would work great.

    I think wild has better options with Dragoncaster or Inkmaster Solia but could be run along side it for sure.

    Well, this has random targets so I think this will be played in different situations.

    Its a card you'd get from Font of Power and then realise that its good.

    Because there's no way you're putting this in your deck just so it can cast for free, a few obvious spells like Flamestrike or Mask of C'Thun. In absence of such spells, this is just a 50-50 chance of wasting 7 mana, and that's almost always a bad thing.

    It's mana cheat, which is good by definition. Like a non-conditional Dragoncaster. Shame there's no more Puzzle Box of Yogg-Saron tho.

    Mask of C'Thun might be the best thing to cast with this. Maybe Deep Freeze would be alright too. I don't know. I think any spell that costs 4 or more, and you get your value's worth out of this minion. As long as the spell doesn't hit your face or a friendly minion.

    This will be fun with 8 mana discover a 6 cost and summon 2 copies of it.

    This is for a mage deck that doesn't exist in standard. What are you cheating out? Mask of C'thun?

    Right now this is a 2/5, I don't think a Big Spell Mage is going to work. However, I think that it does have potential in the future.

    Big Spell Mage just got a shiny new toy to play with. I wonder if this will be added to LPG Mage in Wild. Dragoncaster might still be better.

    Jep, in Wild Dragoncaster and Inkmaster Solia are both better than this new card and both practically don't see any play at the moment. Sure, Clumsy Courier has the upside of not having to play a highlander deck or run dragons, but it doesn't let you target the spells. Maybe interesting for a Standard deck, but my expectations aren't high.

    Arena > Wild > Standard

    This card is not great... Maybe for a big spell mage... but honestly, it's not my cup of tea.

    Interesting effect and there are a few high cost spells atm in standard, but I don't see what deck this card would fit in. Maybe we need more incentive and support in future expansions.

    Seems decent in wild, where you actually have 10 cost spells. In standard it seems very bad. 

    Actually Inkmaster Solia and Dragoncaster are way better, so nvm Clumsy Courier is still bad.

    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.

    It's literally just Dragoncaster but without the dragon part. That card never saw much play after it was nerfed from 6 mana, but maybe without the deck building restriction this will be different.

    There are at least couple of spells that are ok to cheese out, but maybe later we will have better support.

    Except I'm assuming the target will be chosen randomly upon battlecry trigger - Dragoncaster allowed you to pick and chose

    It looks nice at first glance, but how often do Mages want to play expensive spells like that? Unless I'm missing something, it's not really worth running a 4/5 when you could just cast the spell instead

    You probably don't care that much about a 4/5 body when you could've just run a more impactful spell or minion instead. The cards you want to cast with this - Flamestrike, Mask of C'Thun - are already 7 mana, so you don't even get to do anything early.
