So it's Sap and Vilespine Slayer in 1. That seems really good against big minions, but it's a worse Assassinate against smaller minions. The one big thing to note though, is that unlike with Sap, Bootstrap Sunkeneer puts the card on the bottom of your opponents deck. If you play wild, then you probably know how annoying Psychic Screams effect is. Which is why i think shuffling a minion to the GUARANTEED bottom of your opponents deck is very good... as long as they dont run any dredge cards.
Way too hard to judge. It's kinda like Libram of Wisdom, but it doesn't go infinite.. Sure it's 1 less mana, but infinite + being able to be discounted to 0 > 1 mana repeatable after playing a naga. The only time i see this getting played is if priest gets some way of generating infinite nagas... Which i really hope we dont get. Infinite value is the worst kind of value.
Oh right. If so, that is a welcome change, actually. Acolyte was the best unit to prevent taking chip damage at turns 1-2, and with it going up a Tier, those first two turns now get to be more of the mindgames that they usually are against players who didn't have Acolyte.
Great card, and easy to activate. Will 100% see play in some kind of slower paladin deck. It is also great for handbuff paladin, because it just makes Shimmering Sunfish a lot stickier. I think this will see plenty of play!
Mech mage is coming back? Meh it might just be something that gets no support, just like Remote-Controlled Golem.
Either way it's a 3 mana mech with good stats, and it shuffles some value into your deck. Sunken Sweeper seems interesting. I'm not sure if 3 mechs is good enough right now, but it depends on the newly added mechs in this set and the core set. (Hoping a certain mech that's best described as "Unity, Precision.. perfection" is in the core set) This seems like an interesting spin on Omega Assembly as well. Seems good in a slower/control style mage deck. And one more kind of archetype.
What is the #1 archetype that likes generating cards? Well it's an archetype that only has 1 copy of every card in their deck. I think this might fit really well in a highlander mage deck, which might be returning. The devs have REALLY teased a possibility Reno Jackson might be in the core set (On twitter), which might be possible considering Finley is also returning this expansion.

The mana cost of the cards is spend but the effects do not go off. No deathrattle or battle cries and the minion body does not enter the state of play. It makes the player waste a move so to speak
Amazing minion. It generates a card, but also needs you to cast a spell when it's sitting in your hand. Basically delayed discover. I honestly like it. It makes it so you need to work for that value, and even then a 2 mana 2/3 is still premiumly statted so it's not that bad to play it without the battlecry. Also it's a naga, so that might have some synergy that has yet been revealed.
It's also really good after a turn 1 Wildfire or that other 1 mana fire spell. Honestly this seems solid. Not "op af" or anything, but just solid.
Oh well... rip Maexxna. Yes, she was part of "scam" builds, but damn did she serve a purpose of being a Poisonous unit for Beasts and as another one for everyone to use instead of the rather lackluster Spore. Also perplexed by the Acolyte buff.
This looks like something ramp druid will LOVE post-rotation. Druid is losing Cenarion Ward, so they can slot in Colaque as some new kind of lifegain. Also Living Seed is still in standard after rotation, so druids could use it in order to draw it and cheat some mana, allowing it to go on board earlier.
Also as we know with Raid Boss Onyxia, immune minions can be hard to remove. So that makes Colaque even better. But despite that Colaque doesn't have rush, unlike Raid Boss Onyxia which means it's harder to get value out of the immune effect.
But still i think Colaque will see play in a lot of slower druid decks such as ramp druid, and you can get Colaque from Ambassador Faelin, which does seem like a card slower/rampish druid decks would like to run.
Don't think Tidehunter is that relevant since leveling on turn 2 isn't even that good anymore. Acolyte was warranted though probably, guy carries the early game way too hard and is part of the reason why it's so easy to lose health early on.
New Druid Minion - Colaque
This makes me hope for Big Beast Druid to be a thing. IN either case, this is basically Kresh but for Druid, which is great because Kresh is good.
I'd play this in any non-aggro Druid deck, it's just a great stabilizer.
New Rogue Minion - Bootstrap Sunkeneer

Voyage to the Sunken City
Tested it, and what happens is once the minion is played, no effect is played and it is removed. Coutering a minion is effectively silence and remove.
