We found the resident Odd Pally Player, may we burn her? Ok, but in all seriousness, I think you may be underrating the effect too much on the other hand. I mean, sure a 5 mana “do nothing” may seem bad, but if you don’t have a board on turn 5 as Odd Pally, you were gonna lose anyway. This effectively doubles the power of any dudes summoned and skyrockets their staying power for future board buffs and makes it really awkward for any class that is not Warrior to deal with, not to mention having more synergies with Rallying Blade and stuff. I mean its a clear one and done drop, and the fact that Steward of Darkshire is still being run is a testament that Odd Pally finds Divine Shields to be somewhat important.
Very good card, I'll prolly be annoyed when I see this.
Being able to discover and play a secret based on the current game state is pretty great. Also, since pool of secrets is small, you have good chance of finding what you want.
It draws cards so its always up for consideration. But I'm a little more skeptical of its actual powerlevel. Seems a little like it costs too much, and the conditions are not necessarily easy to get out more than 3 cards in most cases.
So this card can usually draw somewhere around 3 cards, 5 at very best. Considering Rigged Faire Game already gives out 3 cards if triggered, mage is starting to feel like the premiere draw class now. If aggro secret mage comes back to standard, then this one might just squeeze into the list, if only because it plays the same function as Aluneth did.
Ya know, given Priest's seeming to have a fortune telling theme this expansion, I would of thought the literal fortune teller would have gone to them. Ah well, more potential for Madame Lazul to come back I guess. Wish the effect was more interesting than just draw, even if interacting with secret triggers is kind of neat.
NGL, I first read the card as "swap minion's attack and health". Man, that looks weak.
After watching, Thijs' vid, I realized my mistake. This card is an amazing ramp card!
After playing this, you make all those clunky low attack expensive minions to power houses. Will take some building around the card, but I see great potential in this card.
Its just a fun card. Apparently mage is the only class that is mandatorily required to be designed like a slot machine, which only occasionally becomes cancerous to play against.
With Deck of Chaos and Deck of Lunacy we have two of Professor Thaddeus Paleo's trinkets in WOW. I think it's an easy bet to think that, at least, we are going to have at least two more legendary spells more of this kind.
Renounce Darkness 2.0 here! I don't see much competitive viability in including this card in your deck, as you include spells in your deck to achieve a desired and controllable effect. Deck of Lunacy essentially throws away the consistency of your spells in an attempt to create possible future power spikes. However, the real issue here is that you now have less of an idea of what you're going to draw and can plan less around it. Solid meme card though!
Just more fuels for memes. Without any certainty of what you'll get, and that no one will be packing up spells they won't be using, I can't see why this will unironically be played in any way.
its only niche would be to rid yourself of inserted bombs. But at a price that all your other spells will be replaced too.

Will it break the deck? No, probably not.
Will it help a lot? Yes.

I'm pretty sure if the word "random" is not on the card, then the results will not extend outside your class.
The word "random" is not on this card.
Never mind, just found the gameplay video. Inconsistent wording for the win. :-(

Yay, more support for mid range paladin in standard.
5 mana 5/5 is decent albeit slow, but once put down all the dudes take 2 hits to take out which makes this very good imo.
New Mage Spell - Deck of Lunacy
Full spell mage maybe? You lose the syngery cards like Apexis Blast, but effectively upgrading every card in your deck sounds spicy enough.
New Mage Spell - Deck of Lunacy
Spell mage, aka no minion, will be playing this, it's very random, but I like it anyway

Remember when they said a few months ago that the RNG in game was at the highest it would ever be? They lied.

DEAN!! stop supporting secret mage for standard too
New Mage Spell - Deck of Lunacy
I honestly have fun against players that run those decks. Maybe because I also like playing that and I respect them.

Using spelling to determine English pronunciation is a bad idea...
Though
Through
Cough
Hiccough (original/alternate spelling with same pronunciation as Hiccup)
Bough (means a branch of a tree).
All have 'ough' and are all pronounced differently. 'Bough' is indeed pronounced as Warfric states.
New Mage Minion - Sayge, Seer of Darkmoon
I...don't really know where this goes, maybe the best place is a control deck with a few secrets, not a bananas all secret deck.

Can OTK-lock be a thing with a 4 mana Malygos?
Only drawback I see in this card is may limit design space while in standard.

This is insane. The randomness makes it inconsistent, but this will surely be a fun card.
