I can see this finding it's way into a Pirate build. Skybarge is a Mech, and Pirates are also cheap/ can be discounted.
I really struggle seeing this making a Menagerie style deck though, the dragon slot on the new N'Zoth feels like it should be a big body/active effect.
For what it's worth: I assume the "one [that's] become meta already" refers to Feel The Rush -- that's only 20 hearts, which should be quite achievable. I would encourage everyone to try to get at least that even if they don't intend to play it since their is duplicate prevention for epics.
Zephrys finished a random pair you have. Be careful when you have more than one pair and you might want to finish a particular one! ;-) Then again, dont be afraid to use one or two HP uses to get some tempo on Tavern Tier upgrades to finish a triple you might not even want, if you hold on to the wishes but bleed hp all game, you will be a sad genie :)
I wish I could remember where I saw that Clip to back me up better.
But I know for sure that Cards that discover from your Deck disregard Duplicates that are in it. They have to do that, otherwise it would be possible to have the same Discover Option more than once.
For Example, Your Deck is empty and you shuffle Raptors with Queen Carnassa. Then, when you play Stitched Tracker, it only gives you 1 Option, not 3.
And if you do this again, but with 3 other Minions remaining in your Deck, you should have only a 1/4 Chance to get a Raptor.
Support for the new N'zoth I guess. I wonder if with all this different classes cards for Warrior if there is going to be a deck with a lot of this synergy, or just use a few of these for 1 or 2 class cards.
I mean, it's not impressive, but Discover Draw is really interesting, even if you only draw 1 card. Still I'm not sold in the cost/stat so not sure if it'll see play outside some weird control Rogue.
I might be misunderstanding how the test was conducted, but it sounds like Shadow Visions was offering 1 Jade Idol, and 1 of each of the other spells each time. If so, that doesn't say anything about the odds of seeing a card in the options to begin with, only that it won't offer the same card twice.
What you really need to test is a deck with of lots of different spells, and a whole ton of Jade Idols. Suppose you have 10 different spells and 30 Jade Idols. Then if the number of duplicates is important, the odds of seeing a Jade Idol in the discover options would be 1-(10/40)(9/39)(8/38) = 98.8%, whereas it would be 1-(10/11)(9/10)(8/9) = 27.3% if it treats all the Idols as a single card. That is a large enough difference for it to be obvious very quickly, but I only have 1 account so cannot set this up with the aid of Lorewalker Cho.
Anyway, even if Shadow Visions ignores duplicates, it is also possible that Shek'zara would work differently because unlike the other similar cards she was quite clearly designed with the possibility of there being lots of duplicates in mind. It would be a bit odd for them to design a card for that very scenario only to code it in a way that makes it very unlikely to happen.
This card was intentionally designed to be hard to trigger, so it creates an interesting mind game: do I let my opponent draw 3 or run the risk of facing two 4/4s or a Cloud Prince next turn. Of course, both scenarios are pretty bad, but depending on the circumstances, at least you can kind of play around it.
If secret mage does in fact finally take off in Standard, then this will probably be a one-of in the deck. It will not see play in wild because Ice Block already exists and so does Aluneth.
If you have a murloc, beast, pirate, dragon, and elemental on board it would cost 5 less but you mostly want this card turn 3 because anything cheaper than that is unlikely
Does this really work with the Teddy Bears? Aren't they Spells which gets cast when drawn? Sorry for me not knowing the mechanic.
Yes, [Hearthstone Card (Teddy Bear) Not Found]s are cards in your deck. This card can cause you to draw them, at which point they would cast themselves and draw you another card. Plus, the more Teddy Bears you have in your deck, the greater the odds you will discover one.
Grand Empress Shek'zara is cuckoo-bananas, and not just because of the Teddy Bears! There are a lot of things that become far more powerful when you have both copies in hand, such as burn spells and poison as the simplest examples.

Very good on curve and enable some pressure from board which is a mage weakness

Man, Secret Mage is gonna be even more frustrating to play against in Wild with all of these new tools.

As cool as that interaction is, I don't think it's possible to play her and keep a full hand at the same time.
How do you get the KDA cards after the event?
