Dragon mage already works now add a card that is both early removal and replaces itself..
Well seeing as mage is none exist ant in ladder both before and after wild tomb event it could use a little bit of power..
More fuel for Chenvaala and Mana Cyclone.
Luckily this can only target minions, but as we all know Mage loves these 1 mana discover spell effects so I would be very surprised if this doesn't see play. Seems like another very powerful card, even without the discover its still 'fine' just to act as a cheap spell activator for your other cards such as the ones mentioned above.
Ridiculously good Dragon Mage tool, makes me wonder if Quest Dragon Mage could be a thing
Idk. Don't think It'll see much play outside of Generated-by-Effects. Also, not really a Card that you want from Tortollan Pilgrim.

Another great tool for mana cyclone and chenvaala to play with. Tempo mage will be strong!
Never netdeck, craft Whizbang instead!
Good cheap removal spell, even in non-dragon decks.
Good for tempo mage only if somehow they decide to include dragons, which I think work better in a more expensive, maybe highlander deck.
great card. early removal with possible refuel. Mage cards have real sinergy in std.
Awesome card.
So many good cards - it will be hard to fit them all in a deck.

More fuel for spell cycling! The dragon requirement kind of stifles it a bit, but at least there is no mana limit to what spells you can discover, unlike Magic Trick
Well it's over
ver strong tempo card, cyclone mage would be so strong
Super good. Like other mage cards I give 5 stars. In my opinion it should cost at least 2
arxane shot + magic trick, the power level of this xpac is seriously insane
The efficiency is what we should expect, the cost makes it good for combos, and the upside does what Mage wants to do in decks that want cheap spells. Will it be good enough to put Dragons in Cheap Spell Mage decks? Dunno. Will it be good enough for Dragon Reno? Probably. Dragon Mage? Almost definitely.
Must have in Dragon decks. If the mage will have any.
-=alfi=-
Looks borderline normal - which I like.
pretty good early removal if reno Dragon mage is a thing
I tried having fun once.
It was awful.
This is pretty sweet, any card that gains you another card is worth considering.
1 mana to add a random mage spell to your hand is a card, this discovers the spell and deals 2 damage (which isn't insignificant).
This card is an auto-include in any mage deck that has dragons, but is it enough to justify making a dragon deck? If nothing else, mage will want to make a dragon deck to take advantage of Malygos, Aspect of Magic. I think this card will see play, and it is pretty powerful for 1 mana.
Carrion, my wayward grub.
There are not many 2 health dangerous minions this doesn't kill much, doesn't stall edwin, you have to cut frost bolt or ray of frost for this unless you are running bunch of small spells. Its ok in control meta but don't think will see play that much
I don't feel like Mage needed a card like this, I almost would have preferred a more midrange style spell, but that's not what we got. This is obviously powerful and if you can figure out how to play Dragons and Mana Cyclone together this is going to be very strong in that style deck.
To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of the women.
Cheap spell - check
Value generator - check
Kalecgos in hand - check
This will see play
Struggle with Heroic Galakrond's Awakening? I got your back :
Nice card for cyclone mage. This will be a staple addition to the deck to generate more spells~
any card that replaces itself while dealing with the opponent stuff is great, 3/5
Probably good in cyclone/quest mage, now I can remove some bad freeze cards and test this.
I'm sorry for my bad english :)
The Dragon condition keeps this spell in check.
Solid inclusion in Dragon Mage ofc, but not necessarily OP.
The breath is a good cheap spell for either the new legendary or mana cyclone shinanegans.
Dragon Mage looks good if good RNG but Quest Mage looks like it's even faster now.
Cheap and flexible card, very good IMHO.
1 mana deal 2 damage has always been good enough to see some play and this can also discover another spell. It easily fits in the dragon mage package with Azure Explorer, Dragoncaster, Firetree Witchdoctor, Kalecgos and Malygos, Aspect of Magic.
More dragons? Yes please!
Pretty cool card, useful even if you're not holding a dragon
Nice cheap spell generation, Mage pretty much always loves more of that. Looks like a great card, unless somehow dragons are just unplayably bad
Who needs consistency when you could have fun?
Since they're pushing the cheap spell theme with dragonmage, suddenly Azure Explorer isn't looking as bad as it did initially. It's no Flamewaker in terms of power, but it does sorta fit that role while enabling dragon synergies. I don't think Mana Cyclone and Chenvaala are enough to make the archetype work.
Love how this works really well with Azure Explorer. I feel like Magic Trick is alittle bit better for the Chenvaala deck tho. Due to being more consistant.
Cheap spell generation that inflicts an acceptable amount of damage for 1-mana. Mage is a pretty easy place to fit some Dragons IIRC; seems like a fine card. Good, but not OP.
A good option for a dragon mage. And a nice cheap spell for decks with Mana Cyclone and Chenvaala. It'll not fit in any mage deck, but i'm sure it'll find a spot for itself in mage decks. A strong card overall.
Very good card in mage. Will see play for sure considering dragon mage is good.
It's a good cart for sure but at the moment Mage is so useless that it needs more and more excellent cards to hope to have a T1 deck next exp
Very flexible and versatile card. It's gonna definitely see play in Dragon (Highlander) decks, but due to it's cost it might even see play in Cyclone Mage variants.
I'm really spooked of the support for Dragon Mage
This card is not bad, but i don't think is that strong. Will maybe see play in a highlander mage deck, unless the dragons played there will be so few that most of the time people will start cutting it.
Not the strongest breath, but maybe the reason is because highlander mage seems to already have a lot of strong cards
This card is very strong, borderline OP. Works great in potential Dragon Shaman, but isn't bad in Cyclone Mage either due the cheapness of the spell.
Yeah, this card seems almost deceptively awesome. It's so cheap and so simple, but some of the very best cards in the game fit that description (Town Crier anyone?). So yeah, I see no world in which this fails to have a deck that wants it
So, Mana Cyclone is a card. As is Ray of Frost and Magic Trick. And all these cards will stay in standart for 1 more year. Yeah, I'm puting my money on Sorcerer's Apprentice being rotated or nerfed between this dragon expansion and the next one.
Value and damage in one card is always good, probably an auto-include in dragon mage decks. I'm not so sure about cyclone decks though, that depends if they will have ano room for dragons.
Seems like it will be decent enough to replace some of the smaller spells - expect we'll see a lot more of it in April once rotation hits.
Very nice card for it's cost. The value you could get from the discover effect is amazing. Definitely a staple card in any dragon mage deck.
arcane shot + magic trick in the same card with no extra cost = OP?
Even without generating a new spell, small spell mages will love this.
Value plus ealry control board. Can be played in the right deck
Now if only this had Twinspell and froze the minion too!
Extremely strong card, and it comboes with the new Mage legendary.
Seems like a very nice card for Tempo Mage....now the holding a Dragon tag is a little sad for this kind of Deck
They really are afraid of giving mage cheap face spells didn't they ?
I agree with them even though it is opposite to mage's class identity but would love them if they build one or two cards for an expansion to stay in standard for a year so we are able to play some Malygos Mages.
Ok card in dragon decks, also even ok without dragons tho. 2 dmg for 1 is ok-ish effect.
Unpopular Opinion Incarnate
it can go infinite if you have sorcerer's apprentice.
Even more fuel for hand barf cyclone mage I'm going to hate seeing mage this expansion but since they lose flame walker that plague is only in wild. I can see it being run in plenty of other decks though
Self proclaimed good at battlegrounds
Decent mage spell , no more utility except for completing the sidequest
Another great mage card. Dealing 2 damage for 1 mana is good, and discovering another spell is just great. This card has also some nice synergies with cards like Mana Giant or Raid the Sky Temple.
Very spooky to see this card, I think Mage has enough support to potentially be tier 1
Would have to also add in a few dragons as well, which would be a little difficult in the already established cyclone lists.
Dealing 2 damage to a minion for 1 mana is simple but solid, and it has an easy to fulfill condition for an upside.
Jaina is best waifu. Always.
In dragon decks it's good enough, you can correct your curve with this while keeping board in check.
Really good value at a low cost, should be a good addition to cyclone mage.
A support card for Dragon Mage. Maybe you play it in Cyclone Mage because it's a cheap spell.
Wow insane value for 1 mana. Not much to say than this is just an insanely good tool in loads of mage decks. Even without the discover this will be useful. Also a great addition to the discovery pool for mage spells
Nice in Dragon Mage, but do I smell an infinite loop here with Sorcerer's Apprentice?
Fantastic low-cost removal, and the fact that the battlecry (when holding a dragon) is 'discover' makes this insane. A definite include in dragon-based Mage decks.
Another cheap spell generator for mage, in direct comparison with Magic Trick is this just ridiculously good.
Fun and interactive game.
