if you are playing that control hunter archtype with the new spells=poisonous dude.. then this card can make it deadlyshot on a minion? seems good and you don't always want to run dragons..
Has a decent home in deathrattle themed decks and in Quest Hunter, so I suspect this card will see at least some amount of play. Neither of those decks are especially strong right now, so its hard to say whether or not this set gives them enough support to make them strong enough.
Pretty nice card draw, even if you only have spell damage +1. This looks strong, but there is a scarcity of good spell damage minions that says to me that this goes into combo decks only, where two apprentices + Mozaki, Master Duelist help you kill in one turn.
Don't feel like there's a ton to say tbh. It's a bit powercrept Alleycat and good in Quest Hunter, but its almost a reprint of Alleycat and only better in some niche scenarios.
This is really good. Even if you play a 2 mana card before, it's getting an Assassinate. With Rogue being able to generate copious numbers of The Coin, this could fire off with only using 2 mana in later turns. For warrior, you can have Execute and this in a deck to eliminate the need to find something to fulfill that criteria.
Ehhh, you'd rather play the 6/5 dragon for this effect. or just plain deadly shot, since it works better with zul'jin, because why would you ever play control hunter in standard anyway.
A flamewaker that only triggers twice is probably not worth running. The card might see play in secret mage, but I think the spellburst is a little too tricky to consistently achieve there.
Token synergy, check. Strong stats on it's respective turn, check. it's a demon hunter card, check. Okay i'm pretty sure we just found a strong tempo card that will be hated by people. It still has amazing stats if you play it WITHOUT the outcast effect, so i guess this will see play in pretty much every tempo & token DH deck. Solid card.
Ancient of Lore cries.. why it's fine to draw 2 cards with this but not with 1 7 cost card? also this has better stats (Stealth>1 hp) and can't really be removed by most classes.
This doesn't seem great. This looks like a curve topper for a deck that just doesn't really exist. Secret mage doesn't play enough spells to facilitate this card, and quest mage doesn't want to spend 5 mana just to develop the board when they can kill with giants by drawing cards instead.
Not good off of Commencement or Duel! or just straight up playing it. There is no reason to run this as the 4 attack lifesteal is minimal impact on 6 mana without it having rush or taunt.
It's a quite sticky minion thank to Carrion Studies it can be played earlier than 5.... and there's still some DR synergy in hunter.. there's also the prime.. the DR hunter failed last expansion but it got nice tools this time around.
Amazing DH card. Helps pull off the Outcast effect, and helps thin out their decks faster. But you better hope you don't accidentally pull Skull of Gul'dan with Double Jump too early into the game. Will see play in pretty much every DH deck. This also helps against the "uHh aCtuAlLl this powerfull outcast effect will NEVER go off, because the outcast effect is sometimes too hard to fulfill" argument when people rate outcast cards. So that's nice i guess.
It's not a bad card, but it is slow, and if you draw it after a lot of you cards that would generate a bunch of minions then you still need to wait to generate more.
I'm not sure that hunters really need cheap damaging removal.
The card is strong for the cost, but fills a niche that most hunter decks don't seem to need filled, because they aim for board dominance in the early game, letting them trade problem minions away.

New Hunter Minion - Bloated Python
reminds me of Devilsaur Egg / Nerubian Egg sticky deathrattle but this doesn't even need synergy it can pop itself..
there was that card.. 4 mana 1/1 that summoned a 5/5 but 3 mana is much cheaper than 4.. really playing 3 cost cards is just much easier.

handbuff is still a thing in hunter, and it's just 2/2 for 1.. quite solid anyway.. will see play regardless of handbuff.

Not the same.
That one summons one from your deck, is better than random 6drop.
I love that support for Big warrior/pally.

Control players will hate this card.
Shield of Honor
Blessing of Might and Hand of Protection or a cheaper Seal of Champions... but for Warrior as well... I'm sold that there will be a number of warrior decks sporting this.
