What an interesting card. It's really strong if you can just jam it on curve and set up your next plays because you got lucky with card order but it might just be too inconsistent in that regard.
Would put it in Quest DH but I'M not sure that deck can survive without Glide (unless Glide gets added to Core)

Could be good, but at the same time, it's really slow and if it's in your mulligan and you play trash spells it's basically just a worse Barak Kodobane.
But i think some kind of Control-ish Raid the Docks decks might run it, because they like having more defensive pirates, and Gangplank Diver fits that perfectly. Also pirate warrior might just slot this in for Mr. Smite turns and because they like more pirates in their deck. Yes pirate warrior wants impact NOW when they play a pirate instead of impact next turn, but i feel like setting up a "combo" turn might be strong as well. Also we don't know the core set, so we don't know if a lot of pirates are still going to be in the core set. And if a few pirates are no longer in the core set, then pirate warrior might be forced to run it.
Very strong card. Giants have always seen some kind of play, and often were very strong. The only "giant" that didn't really see play is Jumbo Imp which wasn't really a giant. Naga Giant is i.m.o. a way better version of Arcane Giant because it's cost gets reduced by the mana spend on spells. So casting a 7 mana spell = -7 mana on Naga Giant, while with Arcane Giant it would be just -1 mana.
The only problem i see with Naga Giant is that most decks with big spells try to cheat them out for cheaper. Just look at Big spell mage with Clumsy Courier.
But regardless of that, i think this is still a very good fit for Big spell mage, and Holy spell paladin at the very least. But any other deck that uses either a few big spells, or a bunch of smaller spells might just slot Naga Giant into their deck for the swingturns it can create.
In wild lets be honest, Open the Waygate MIGHT include this, but this might be the the one case where Arcane Giant might be better, just because that deck prefers cheap small spells like Ray of Frost and stuff to complete the quest. Outside of that, maybe Libram paladin deck runs it.

Can relate. I still have to gamble on every newly released Hunter and Druid spell. Many disappointments were had

I actually forgot there are archetypes outside questline DH. Sorry

This will be abused somehow, just need more thought on that later. Kinda scared of Lady S'theno Questline DH in wild now.

Why so? This is actually the first mana-cheat card for DH this expansion, and it's no Skull of Gul'dan.

Quick note that the card in the thumbnail is Rare, the actual card is Epic, and I'm slightly color-blind :p

Does demon hunter even spend mana at this point

I believe they didn't name it living bomb because there's already a card with that name (I guess it was Ragnaros'/Baron Geddon' special card from BRM)
New Mage Minion - Commander Sivara

New Shaman Minion - Radiance of Azshara
Well, most shaman decks run Multicaster so this would fit in niceley ! Pretty sure this will find a way into the meta! Very flexible!
New Paladin Minion - The Leviathan
Wow! Works as removal and draw enginge! Looks pretty good!

New Neutral Minion - Gangplank Diver
The Juggernaut summoning this is pretty good, because what's more funny than getting Gangplank Diver into next turn random Mr. Smite + Gorehowl from The Juggernaut + Mr. Smite from inhand... Fun.
But i think some kind of Control-ish Raid the Docks decks might run it, because they like having more defensive pirates, and Gangplank Diver fits that perfectly. Also pirate warrior might just slot this in for Mr. Smite turns and because they like more pirates in their deck.

It's pretty straight forward lol. When it dies deal 3 ...
New Demon Hunter Minion - Coilskar Commander
Looks annoying to play against :)
Interesting card - and the condition is not that hard to meet!
New Warrior Minion - Lady Ashvane
5 Mana 5/5 is decent on it`s own and the battlecry looks good depending on how many good weapons we will have in the expansion! But still playable!
New Neutral Minion - Gangplank Diver
Well you could set it up with Mr. Smite tough .... play this on 5 and with Smite comming down the next turn you could go face for 12 !
So i say it is at least a decent card.
New Mage Spell - Volcanomancy
Very good against aggro and you can also target your own minions ! But that's it .... not sure if this will be played over other cards ...
New Neutral Minion - Pelican Diver
Meh .... seems like a filler card but nothing more!
New Neutral Minion - Slimescale Diver
Looks ok - seems pretty slow at first but relatively bulky for a murloc so it could be decent.
New Neutral Minion - Naga Giant
I like it! Pretty strong and will find a place in the upcoming meta - maybe paladin or even priest!
New Neutral Minion - Slimescale Diver
Hmm this seems pretty decent, but im not sold on it. Maybe might see play in a slower meta, but outside of that it might just be too slow.
New Neutral Minion - Pelican Diver
WOW, Emerald Skytalon with +2 attack, but is Dormant for 1 turn? INSANEly trash. It even looks so bad, that even in arena you might just skip it.
