    Pretty good I'd say. Good enough if you just run it in a Beast focused deck it gives you decent enough value, but if you actually put specific beasts into your deck it could be huge. Oasis Snapjaw and Hippogryph say hi.

    Curves into Ramkahen Wildtamer. In theory you could do some really powerful stuff with this.

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    Really  good!! Almost a replacement for Master's Call, a card I will really miss after rotation.

    Its a cycle card. Decent since Master's Call and Dire Frenzy are both leaving. But if beast hunter's gonna be a thing there's got to be better ways to reload. Otherwise it just gets out tempoed by both rogue and dhunter.

    Of course, it supports Scarlet Webweaver + Hunting Party builds. Maybe that's where it will end up in

    Didn't they say card draw was just an occasional trait in Hunter?

    Something more OP than that will be if it had Twinspell.

    It's a really good card. The only question is - since hunters have so many good cards if they will have space to include this one too.

    Yes. That is why there is this one single card that only draws you one single card. What is the problem here?

    About the actual card, it seems pretty strong. You can use this simply as a way to cycle through your deck, it doesn't really give you any card advantage because you still have the same number of cards in your hand, but it does give you virtual card advantage by making sure you have just the right cards in your hand. I like how this card can tutor beasts like Master's Call, but doesn't make it so that you can play only beasts in your deck.

    This card fits into both Midrange Hunter and Highlander Hunter. In decks that only run few beasts, this card can also be used as tutor for a specific combo.

    This card plays really nice with other Hunter cards coming out with this set, like the Porcupine and Leoroxx.

    Maybe as a tutor for that Knuckles OTK deck?

    Zixor Prime Says hi.

    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.

    If any Hunter combo makes it into the upper tiers of meta relevance this expansion, you can be sure that this card will play a part. Tutoring for specific cards is always good when you play it right.

    The fact that this can tutor some key cards will make it extremely strong. Augmented Porcupine, Zixor, Apex Predator or even King Krush in an OTK deck will make sure that this card will see play.

    2 mana draw a card is MEH, but you give it +3/+3 and it's suddenly great we saw many cards that have synergy with higher stats this expansion.. also it curves into them.. so.. this card is great.

    I don't see the OTK but it works on the tempo side of things

    Really good card to get some value from your deck and buff it, if you happen to draw a charge or rush minion the value is really good.

    It is draw for Hunter, that has to be decent. But again, they would have to run beasts. Though, just a couple of really good ones or a full beast build?

    Very good tutor for any hunter combo decks going forwards. The +3/+3 is probably useful as well. Midrange beast hunter decks probably don't need this and would rather use Master's Call.

    This card seems like something you'd want in a beast focus deck but then you don't want to run the chance of buffing a really weak minion, you want something to be specifically buffed like Zixor prime or the porcupine or something that will be thrown out there with Rexxar's dad

    Better Call Pet. Does same thing in theory if your deck has low-cost beasts which hunter uses more than high-cost ones. So this one is better version. Also it is a tutor which Call Pet isn't.

    Really nice card which most of us will hate in 1-2 months. Write it somewhere, you'll remember it soon.

    Pretty nice that it does specifically tutor beasts rather than being “draw a card, if it’s a beast give it +3/+3.”

    Surprised they decided to give the class some more draw though.

    Who needs consistency when you could have fun?

    Lots of synergy for Zixor Prime, it seems. Beast Hunter will be a thing!

    The number of beasts that REALLY like this card will determine how good it is. And right now, although it's not a huge number, it is enough for it to possibly see play.

    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)

    Pretty decent, though I don’t see it being too powerful. Still, it will help drawing cards like your prime legendary and buffing it
