The effect is alright, but mostly the fact that it's a 0 mana spell allows for [Hearthstone Card (Mozaki) Not Found]/Gadgetzan Auctioneer shenanigans. Love that Flurry got to reveal this card though.
Basically you've got Illidari Felblade for removing one medium threat, whereas this removes two smaller threats - if you're lucky enough that your opponent forgets this card exists. It's slightly better than Felblade imo, but that's still bad in DH.
Why is no one asking him about the stupid amounts of damage from BGs, about how unfun it is for bottom 4 players, and about the random disconnects we keep getting?
It's more likely to be decks for new players who don't have a huge collection and still want to play competitive decks. If you have golds you should be able to collect cards needed for the deck. But yes, it would be nice to have the cost in real money and gold to let everybody enjoy the meta decks.
This may see play in clown druid if the archetype isn't dead next expansion. It's definitely more a value/control card and if my assumptions are correct, the copy added to hand would still retain the +2/+2 buff. So it's not bad, but other classes have had better cards revealed so far
If my info is correct the Name is Mark of the Spikeshell !
Looks ok to me for 2 Mana - but depending what kind of Taunt Minions will make it into standard Druid decks this could be very good or either not see any play at all.

OK card, it is cheap and therefor can activate combo cards - could help but i guess a little to situational. Will try it but i think it will be to inconsistent.
We'll have to see more spells before this can be certified as problematic. On its own, its a decent card with an upside. But it will likely be slowed down by hunter's atrocious draws.
Its at least a better Violet Teacher for all that's worth. And in hunter, that's probably worth as much as an 8 year old's allowance.

Can be compared to Mark of Y'Shaarj. Adding a minion to your hand is like drawing a card.
Btw, I'm not sure if the copy has +2/+2 buff.

A bit too greedy for a class that already has extremely greedy cards.

This with the clown card could be insane for more value .Clown druid can become stronger .

Fluffy indeed

Why isn't this a warrior card? They print better taunt synergy for other class than warrior...
New Druid Spell - Mark of the Spikeshell
Not entirely sure that this is usefull. The only good target I can think of is Strongman, but even that is just kinda meh.
Maybe there's something more useful to do with this, but as is it just looks like an arena card to me

While I know that Fluffy Tortollan is only a placeholder, it's a wonderfully ironic name for this spiky shell spell.

But still 2 Mana +2/+2 seems pretty ok.

only good in freeze mage
New Druid Spell - Living Seed (Rank 1)
There's some combo potential down the line, I can feel it. But for now, its not really what I would put in my druid deck.
Druid neither needs the draw, mana cheat, nor is there any specific beasts they would like to tutor. In other words, this is not worth it...for now
