This is basically Crimson Sigil Runner but doesn't require the outcast effect. Given how Paladin doesn't have too much card draw, they'd love a one-drop to open their game and draw a card. The only Paladin deck that might not run Knight of Anointment is Secret Paladin since they don't want to draw their secrets, but I'd say it's close in that deck.
Not bad, but you have to wait until turn 10 to get the same damage as Twin Slice, which feels a bit weak. I am sure it will see play, but it isn't spectacular.
Also twin slices was better to play several cheap spells, and this is just 1. I don't think this will see play.
I think this card is legitimately powerful. Obviously has a real home in Oops, All Spells Mage, but beyond that paying four to draw two is not bad, especially if you end up getting some or all of that Mana back. Very good, will see play.
Its not bad, I grant you, but probably too ordinary to ever see real inclusion in anything other than highlander mage.
There's only like a few frost spells in standard worth considering anyway. Flurry (Rank 1) is a good one, but I'd rather save that up for a better turn with a better minion.
This competition will naturally be a bit tricky, but I'm excited to see what you guys do.
I chose to make it a Shaman card because I feel that Mage could probably abuse it too easily, and they seem to be pushing SD Shaman so this seems like a natural fit.
New Neutral Minion - Oasis Thrasher
can't wait to flinger my own minions
New Demon Hunter Weapon - Tuskpiercer
DH has so many options to draw cards, does not look too great
New Priest Minion - Soothsayer's Caravan
Too slow and bad ability.
New Hunter Spell - Wound Prey
Decent, but i doubt it is needed
New Mage Minion - Arcane Luminary
Maybe elemental Mage would want it, depending on the build. But otherwise, not worth it

Here's my first idea:
I put it in Scholomance as a reference to the Harry Potter tree. FYI: when it goes back to Dormancy, it retains any damage it took.

New Priest Minion - Void Flayer
Hard card too evaluate, has good potential but I fear it might just fall short of breakpoints a bit too often.
New Neutral Minion - Hecklefang Hyena
Yeah, no.
New Warlock Minion - Barrens Scavenger
i dunno if there is enough there for this warlock archetype
New Demon Hunter Spell - Fury (Rank 1)

About time some Fury Tauren Warrior representation came up.

New Hunter Minion - Pack Kodo
Seems good, but doesn't actually do too much, and you need action early as hunter. Don't see it work, unfortunately.
New Warlock Minion - Barrens Scavenger
The requirement is to steep, when you reach this point the effect is not worth it

New Paladin Minion - Knight of Anointment
Absolutely bonkers, will be played in every Paladin deck until it rotates.
New Shaman Minion - Lilypad Lurker
HS devs: if we keep throwing elemental cards .. amazing synergies must emerge!
Players: ....... (stare back with suspicion and doubt in their eyes)
New Neutral Minion - Southsea Scoundrel
Nah. I don't think you want your opponent's cards bad enough to run this.
New Neutral Minion - Hecklefang Hyena
Maybe zoo?
New Paladin Spell - Galloping Savior
Very bad secret, all the other Paladin Secrets in Standard are better.
New Demon Hunter Weapon - Tuskpiercer
Good card, if only there were good DH deathrattles.
New Neutral Minion - Taurajo Brave
It's slow, but very powerful (especially if you can activate it immediately).
New Hunter Minion - Warsong Wrangler
