Handbuffing is hard to play.. I think that if they wanted to push hand buffing they should add a decent body or "draw a card" to those cards...

Dude.

What I meant is that this is a 4 mana minion that Silences another one. As such we can compare it to Spellbreaker, an already existing card. Compared to that one, this has clear upsides, so it's better. That's what I meant. Not "this is a minion, and that is a different minion." 

How much better we'll have to see, depending on the meta.

This seems a bit slow, it could be slightly viable in slower decks like token DH but that’s not a deck you want to run in such an aggro-centric class.

I'm guessing the best application for this card is extra reach for aggro DH in the late game. The draw part is good, the upside is also good as long as the drawn card isn't awkward to play and that usually happens in T6/T7 for aggro DH when you just want to push that extra reach damage and you don't mind simply slapping that random 1-drop you drew.

Wonder if they ever are gonna make discard targetable across the board like in runeterra... it feels so much better over there here.. there will always be feelbad moments... even with the "supposed targeting"

They might, they already made it kinda targetable by duel hero power, maybe they will change it with classic revamp in April altogether

This is quite sticky overall and can be a problem for your opponent to have to keep up with.

Could be sick in wild discolock

This with the bonespider egg might create the strongest turn one opener ever without coin. Just difficult in zoo to have 2 mana be the lowest cost in hand

Is this interaction confirmed? The card is discarded, then boneweb egg's (deathrattle) effect triggers, and finally fluffy whispers buffs the tokens?

That is what my mind went to immediately was that we may finally have a reason to run that card.

To me the thing that stands out the most is not the very powerful effect but the fact that it is a 4 mana 2/6. If it had bad stats, Il'gynoth would be solely used for its effect but with that statline, it can also be simply slapped on the board T4 as setup.

Remember when Druids played with Fandral Staghelm because not only of their effect, but because it had to be dealt with immediately if played on curve or you'd risk getting very outvalued very fast? That's the same feeling with this card, except Il'gynoth has more health and is therefore harder to remove overall and the outvalued part is instead risking your health being dropped very hard very fast.

I remember reading about this in an interview, basically, they just had the expansion all finished already and decided to push it sooner. Super weird reason to break the norm, but I'm going to remain optimistic about everything.

Could also be that they are making more of a gap between this and the mini-expansion to not have them be incredibly cramped.

This seems mediocre and likely won’t see much play except for some fringe decks.

I think so too, just the cell condition is so vague that it almost fits, wanted to mention...

I can see this being a problem card, and the war blades will probably get nerfed because of this.

Boneweb Egg gets some support (still boggles me that it didnt get any in Scholomance), and zoo gets a nice AoE board buff.  Grim Rally was run a lot, but destroying a 1/1 gives up minimal board advantage while this loses quite a bit of card advantage.  Still, I'll take any zoo support with a smile.

One of these days, Hearthstone is going to make card that actually had Fluffy in the title just to throw us off, lol. 

Discardlocks in Wild just have gotten more cancer to bear.

This is probably a one of in some rogue decks but not too many. It isn’t as crazy as VanCleef but can help swing the early turns.

An important correction: playing 'casts when drawn' cards does not draw a card. That got bundled up with the keyword, and since you are not casting it when drawing it, it won't draw anything. So if you ever need to desperately draw something and think it might be worth playing that Bomb, DON'T!

It's always "in play" when it's not mentioned otherwise.

Zoo gets some love. Nice

This phrasing has always meant "on the board"
