The ideal scenario for this is to pull it off of Guardian Animals, but I don't think that spell will be very good in the upcoming meta. Not having a way to immediately activate the cleave makes this minion so much weaker as well.
This looks more powerful in Druid than in Shaman, as the more expensive Shaman spells in standard right now are symmetric board clears. Druid also has a weakness of lacking removal in general, so Speaker Gidra helps shore up that weakness. Probably only sees play in Quest Druid that may run a Malygos win condition to serve part of the role Wardruid Loti did before she was rotated. I imagine you don't run Gidra in Spell Druid as you only want to run essential minions in that deck for Fungal Fortunes.
I read it the first time thinking it was only a single target deal ... then read it again ... ''Set the attack of ALL enemy m...'' All !!! Even if just for a turn, this can create massive swing and optimal trades ; nice
And here we are at study number 3 - rush translating as an athletic feature - I kind like this one a tad less, but only for theme reason. It is otherwise a good flexible card that can help you out of a tight spot.
I like the Study cards and how they adapt to each classes - demon, dragon, athletic (read rush) - its a fun concept This expansion has a lot of those ..!
Single target removal, for both Warrior and Rogue is a scary good news. Either in combo or just as is, it opens a whole new door that rogue can now Execute

New Neutral Minion - Lake Thresher
The ideal scenario for this is to pull it off of Guardian Animals, but I don't think that spell will be very good in the upcoming meta. Not having a way to immediately activate the cleave makes this minion so much weaker as well.
New Warrior Weapon - Reaper Scythe
New Mage & Rogue Minion - Jandice Barov
Why not make this a legendary spell? Having a 5 Mana 2-1 minion just send pointless.
New Neutral Minion - Divine Rager
Cool meme, but doesn't have inherent synergy to be included in a deck.
New Hunter/Druid Minion - Shan'do Wildclaw
This card is beastly
New Paladin & Warrior Spell - Shield of Honor
Combine with
for cash and prizes. Use on
or
for 6 damage and protection on Turn 2.
New Rogue & Warrior Minion - Doctor Krastinov
I wonder if you wouldn't play both this card and Captain Greenskin. It would increase the consistency of your deck.
New Mage Minion - Firebrand
Finally after years ... Flamewaker made balanced
New Druid & Shaman Minion - Speaker Gidra
This looks more powerful in Druid than in Shaman, as the more expensive Shaman spells in standard right now are symmetric board clears. Druid also has a weakness of lacking removal in general, so Speaker Gidra helps shore up that weakness. Probably only sees play in Quest Druid that may run a Malygos win condition to serve part of the role Wardruid Loti did before she was rotated.

New Paladin & Priest Spell - Wave of Apathy
I read it the first time thinking it was only a single target deal ... then read it again ... ''Set the attack of ALL enemy m...'' All !!!
Even if just for a turn, this can create massive swing and optimal trades ; nice
New Rogue & Warrior Spell - Coerce
This can't be bad. I think both Rogue and Warrior will make use of it.
New Warrior Spell - Athletic Studies
Early Rush synergy. maybe a 3-cost Mummy
New Druid Minion - Twilight Runner
New Warrior Spell - Athletic Studies
And here we are at study number 3 - rush translating as an athletic feature - I kind like this one a tad less, but only for theme reason. It is otherwise a good flexible card that can help you out of a tight spot.
New Druid Minion - Gibberling
Turn 1 with this and
. Then some 2/2 on the board and a buff next turn.
New Priest Spell - Draconic Studies
I like the Study cards and how they adapt to each classes - demon, dragon, athletic (read rush) - its a fun concept
This expansion has a lot of those ..!
New Warlock Spell - Demonic Studies
Demon decks. 0-cost
cross fingers.
New Rogue & Warrior Spell - Cutting Class
There's some new weapons, and old ones, that would make this spell 1 or 0 cost draw 2. That's a good deal.
New Paladin Minion - Judicious Junior
#BlackOutTuesday
New Rogue & Warrior Spell - Coerce
Single target removal, for both Warrior and Rogue is a scary good news.
