Perfect for Deathrattles like Testing Dummy. Botface doesn't seem that great a use-case because, if it goes face, you spent 3-Mana and never got to activate its effect.
I love this card, and will definitely be playing the Mech Warrior package. Fireworker doesn't seem that great to me as a payoff, but Testing Dummy for sure is.
@Pezman Yes it gives you the Mini versions of Miniaturize cards. So something like the Amateur Puppeteer or Tabletop Roleplayer might just be vanilla 1/1s, unfortunately. I really like the Mech Warrior package, but I'm not a super fan of Botface because it is so random. The list isn't terrible, but I prefer consistency.
Now that we know about the new chance to mana, going above 10. This seems like a great way to bank a good Big mana turn. Maybe not that Big, But Getting maybe 4 or 5 extra mana banked could work... Really slow though
If Taunt Warrior cannot find a home in Standard, then I'll take this to Wild and be happy. Fire Plume's Heart is still my favorite Quest, so the more the merrier when it comes to support! Imagine Sing-Along Buddy with that deck :D
2 triggers and way too many targets introduced during this expansion (make It 4 IS having 2 copies). If the new cards work even a little bit, this Will make It go all the way to playability
I spent the day playing Mario Odyssey - this game is sooooooooooooo good!! Reminds me of nostalgic classic N64 Super Mario for its core mechanic, but with updated graphics
What would a callback expansion be without a scarab? Yes, this guarantees a 2 drop on 2, however the card is a terrible 1 drop in itself and there are also a lot of 2 drops out there you don't want on 2.
Prince Keleseth on stereoids for an appropriate price. This will definetely make its own archetype, but I fear that it's going to be too slow to ever become competetive.
Hearthstone is Changing Game Rules for Mana, Sigils, Objectives, and Auras
Wait a minute; why are they re-returning Wrath of Air Totem?
That change to Strength Totem didn't lasted for long ...
New Warrior Spell - Wreck'em and Deck'em
Perfect for Deathrattles like Testing Dummy. Botface doesn't seem that great a use-case because, if it goes face, you spent 3-Mana and never got to activate its effect.
New Warrior Minion - Inventor Boom
Fun card, and it doesn't have "then they die" on it! Send 'em face, and you've got fresh minions on the board.
I'm not high on Fireworker, but Testing Dummy will definitely be in my revive pool. Still have to think about the most optimal Zilliax Deluxe 3000.
New Warlock Minion - Malefic Rook
It's Pit Lord, but for 1-Mana less. That card is ancient, and this isn't that much better; I'll pass on this one.
New Warrior Spell - Chemical Spill
The new Rotface But probably more... Gromash, Will love this card too.
The whole warriors package seems like fun this time.
Well at least most of It
New Warrior Weapon - Boom Wrench
I love this card, and will definitely be playing the Mech Warrior package. Fireworker doesn't seem that great to me as a payoff, but Testing Dummy for sure is.
New Warrior Spell - Wreck'em and Deck'em
All the deathrattle mechs we have, and even the new Rotface Will LOVE this card.
New Warrior Minion - Botface
@Pezman Yes it gives you the Mini versions of Miniaturize cards. So something like the Amateur Puppeteer or Tabletop Roleplayer might just be vanilla 1/1s, unfortunately.

New Druid Minion - Wind-Up Sapling
Now that we know about the new chance to mana, going above 10. This seems like a great way to bank a good Big mana turn. Maybe not that Big, But Getting maybe 4 or 5 extra mana banked could work... Really slow though
New Druid Spell - Bottomless Toy Chest
Goes well with the location and the whole package. Also... The Fluffu Hydra would really like this in a niche strategy.
New Warrior Minion - Testing Dummy
Combining this with the Boom Wrench will probably be my favorite play of the expansion.
New Druid Location - Magical Dollhouse
This one goes great with the whole package But It is great to follow Up with the taunt summoning spell that costs 2 of you have spelldamage.
Also It is great in most situations and hard to remove.
New Warrior Minion - Botface
This one seems really powerfull as all minis are... Also Rotface was one of my favourite warrior cards ever. This one IS not going unnoticed by me.
I think this Will see play and maybe with the doctor?
If not... It at least Will be fun*
New Warrior Spell - Quality Assurance

New Warrior Spell - Quality Assurance
Good enough on paper. But taunt warriors has not found its place since Ungoro and that makes me worried about its potential use.
New Warrior Minion - Testing Dummy
This Guy wants to be revived by Dr Boom so badly... Hope It sees play
New Warrior Spell - Safety Goggles
I have my doubts about this card. But the chance of It being 0 mana makes It have a little shine of Hope.
Also Odyn But I think there is better stuff to do with him.
New Druid Minion - Jade Display
This brings the nightmares Back, But seems to be more balanced.
Also Happy this IS not in priest.
Way too show to see any real play in Druid I think. This sounds like bottomfeeder
New Super Mario Bros. Movie Was Announced on Mario Day, Alongside Release Dates for the Luigi’s Mansion 2 and Thousand Year Door Remakes
I spent the day playing Mario Odyssey - this game is sooooooooooooo good!!

New Neutral Minion - Scarab Keychain
What would a callback expansion be without a scarab? Yes, this guarantees a 2 drop on 2, however the card is a terrible 1 drop in itself and there are also a lot of 2 drops out there you don't want on 2.
New Neutral Minion - Nesting Golem
Let's not forget that it's also a buff target and generates a bunch of corpses for DKs.
New Neutral Minion - Plucky Paintfin
Meh. Poisonous without an immediate impact on the board hasn't been good in a long time.
New Shaman Spell - Wish Upon a Star
Prince Keleseth on stereoids for an appropriate price. This will definetely make its own archetype, but I fear that it's going to be too slow to ever become competetive.
New Neutral Minion - Origami Crane
Poor Vol'jin and I don't even think that his succesor will see any play. In 99% of cases you rather spend the mana on a real removel.
