Stellina was good off Illidari studies. This has a much easier activation condition (as long as all Secrets in this set are playable), meaning you can play a vanilla 4/3 on curve that can derail your opponent's gameplan. Considering how many decks right now rely on playing specific cards on curve, this could be really good.
It's also a neat counter to Infuse stuff since you can shuffle it back in the deck and prevent your opponent from upgrading them.
I tried having fun once.
It was awful.
Rogue Secrets are coming! YAY!
This gives me hives. Hand disruption has always been a key factor in CCGs. The fact that this is a Battlecry and not a Combo makes late game Brann Bronzebeard double whammy stripping Infused cards back into their deck, then Shadowstepping to do it again really annoying
Why does blizzard keep printing STUPID DISRUPTION SPELLS?!?!

Not a rickroll, cute frog.
Its yet more disruption for a class that doesn't really need it. But this card has potential simply because the conditions is fairly simple and it has aggressive stats.
Unless secret rogue comes back to standard, I wont be too surprised if this card never sees play. Because removing one card from your opponent's hand is one thing, but how about actually winning the game as well?
This gives me hope that we will get new Rogue Secrets. If there is enough Secret Support for Rogue this will see play.

I'd say we should be expecting Rogue secrets to be revealed sooner or later, as I highly doubt they would print a secret synergy card in an expansion and have zero secrets to support it. This looks like a pretty nice disruption card, but I'm sure the quality of secrets will determine if it is worth running this card.
Assuming we see at least two Rogue Secrets, I'll give this a provisional 4 stars. This level of disruption (and intel gathering) is off the charts.
disruption for secret rogue, i like it. You can really mess with your opponent this way, and if your opponent finishes lets say a questline and you don't have Mutanus the Devourer or Theotar, the Mad Duke in hand, then you can use Ghastly Gravedigger to delay them playing their quest reward.. unless they insta-topdeck it. (Which knowing my luck will happen 99% of the time if i'm in such a situation.)
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.
Very powerful disruption tool if you manage to activate it and spoiling your opponent strategy
Is it possible to have a preventive-PTSD triggering? ^^
Struggle with Heroic Galakrond's Awakening? I got your back :
I'm not a fan of Stelina-but-Secrets-requirement, mostly because no one actually ran Star Student Stelina, they just generated her off of Illidari Studies.
Hey, you heard about that Mario guy?
It has pretty decent stats, even without considering the Battlecry. Not sure it'll see any play, though.
