Yeah, I would highly agree with always looking for the option not to take the swirl, that potato can ruin your bounty.
Unless you need tasks for your mercs, then go ahead I guess, but be prepaired to get potato. The odds for me are about 65% for potato. 15% for stranger, and 20% for the weird coin one i never remember the name of.
Also don't bother with elite early on in the run unless you know you can handle it, it's also good to not take boons right before fighting an elite, unless 2 of your mercs you plan to send out first are the same as the boon. +50HP, 0 Cooldown, can destroy you.
If in the right order as you want it it would be Sky Wing Ancient, which doesn't make sense. So there you go Ancient Skywing. First creation from me so haha
Skywing Ancient makes sense for a creature like Ancient of Lore.
Cool card for a first timer :) Alleria's card is very cool as well!
Priest, the only class that still suffers in identity.
Why is it always like this, creating the card ability to mess with Attack and Health, and soon after get nerf, and back to mess with Attack and Health again. I mean, we already have tasted the Inner Fire disgusting combo, and then Switcheroo, which end up getting banned.
Its really a build around that would likely be sticking around priest decks for a least a year, so long as buff cards are still relevant for priest and they actually play on board.
In a way I see this as something similar to High Priest Amet, who saw plenty of play, until priest stopped playing for board and that card disappeared completely. I can see this card sharing its fate, but perhaps less embarrassingly so.
Still, if nothing else this card has 6 health for 3 mana and is an instant magnet for removals because no opponent will risk having this stick for more than the turn its played. For that reason alone, it may be deceptively more useful even if all it does is simply die.
Its probably never going to see play, despite its potential.
Priest buff cards have traditionally never fared well as the cost go up, and since Power Infusion sees no play I have no reason to believe this card would.
The only niche it does have above the usual priest buff cards is the fact that you can target your opponent's minions for a quick and easy taunt, which will likely buy you one turn. But for 4 mana? That's a huge ask, particularly when its best use is essentially buffing your opponent's stuff.
Probably a card you'd want out of discover, because at present its a fairly high cost card with very little immediate impact on board. Power Infusion enables value trading, potentially an additional 2 damage to face, and enables trading with higher value minions, and even that card sees no play right now, where standard is at its weakest. And there's a lot of argument can be made that this card can't outshine that.
On the other hand, it does create another minion on board, and if that minion is big like say, Pelagos himself, you might just create a monster that requires destroy effects to get rid off.
But hearthstone being what it is, it'll be a tough sell for any priest card that requires a board to work, hence why cards like power infusion consistently sees little to no play despite it being arguably a good card on its own. I think this card would likely end up in the same boat
If the new set has any Stealth or Dormant minions, those actually might be worth trying out with these new cards alongside the previous dormant minions. It seems much too slow to actually win and has no obvious win conditions as yet, but it seems neat.
Naga is super-tight (and not good enough imo; far too fair) and though it wants Pelagos and this, I doubt that there's room.
I'd make use of the general forums for now as we can always move threads to their correct forums down the line. I'd rather try and have a single forum for the game get traffic and talking then breaking it up into a couple, at least to start. Breaking up the forums when there is low traffic to them can do more harm.

Basically its a card that grants Inner Fire for every buff, because in general most good minion's health are larger than their attack.
The most obvious inclusion would be in naga priest, but at some point it would probably also enable another form of combo priest with Shadow Word: Devour. But the card has more applications than that, because any spell will trigger it, so you can theoretically make a big minion with something like Flash Heal
Certainly a very strong card, and impossible to ignore on board.
Even as a tech card though, seems too underpowered. The body itself is understated and is not tradeable. The locations themselves, barring as acting as critical combo piece, aren't amazing. So IMO this doesn't warrant a card slot.
We're going fast this week! Here's some early feedback while I try to come up with an idea that could match at least one of these amazing cards. Seriously, this week is nuts. I already see multiple 5-stars.
Feedback
BasilAnguis
I love the idea, but I do think it should be a 4-Cost. If not for its value, then for its flexibility. Of course you'd want to add a third statpoint to the buff in that case.
Demonxz95
I like Soul Swap best. It makes great use the prompt's mechanic.
linkblade91
Looks good. Might need to be an 8-Cost.
TheHoax91
Very good use of the prompt's mechanic. I just think it's too much of an upgrade to Silas Darkmoon.
Wailor
Zandalari Soulbinder is amazing. Another great use of the mechanic. I think the statline is probably fine, since it puts the minions in a dangerous position regardless. Also, I like it better as a Shaman card. It is nice to see class identities be expanded a little and this screams VOODOO!
MrRhapsody
Multi-Arrows is my absolute favorite here. I would like to see the order be Freeze-Lifesteal-Poisonous to make them more in line with the art (technically, it should be in reverse, but Poisonous is too long to fit on the first line). It's a 5/5 regardless.
Am I the only one

Pelagos is a New Legendary Priest Hearthstone Card Revealed by Inven Global for Castle Nathria

But honestly, I still haven't figure out what army is Warrior gonna get. If more pirates coming, it's kinda boring and stale.
Boon of the Ascended is a New Priest Hearthstone Card Revealed by LookSam for Castle Nathria
Kyrian here means just like a common minion right? Imbued with Taunt?
So, in the end, I kinda have to praise myself for guessing correct.
Every class getting some kind of army fighting the board,
Mage volatiles, Pally dudes, Warlock imps, and Priest with Kyrians.
Hunter would likely have beasts, Druids treants, and Shaman totems/murlocs.

Faceless Shambler powercreep!
shambler used to see play at silence priest, so maybe that archetype can shine with that set.

i don't think you wanna put this in your deck, maybe good from discover but the cost is too high.

I think with this and Azsharan Ritual . silence priest would be thing again.

Azsharan Ritual but better.

Pretty sure Pelagos activates after the spell is finished, so the copied stats would be the original before the Pelagos effect.
Boon of the Ascended is a New Priest Hearthstone Card Revealed by LookSam for Castle Nathria
This spell + Pelagos + a random big minion = a lot of sticky minions and you've probably won
