How does this work with [Ysiel Windsinger]?

If you play this befor Ysiel does the next spell than cost 0 or 1?

And if it is played with Ysiel on the bord can you still play another spell in he same turn?

Unless new Priest Legendary is some 1 mana trash when summoned (all other legendaries were revealed already and aren't 1 mana)

Creative idea. The weapon itself might not do much damage, but it could be a way to merge aggro weapon style with big minion or swarm-type decks.

Compared to other discover cards this one has quite a small pool of cards to choose from. It won't guarantee anything but it will be way less random than other cards of the same type. It's a decent support card for spell damage decks but its viability will be highly dependent on those very specific decks.

This is so weird, I have no idea what to think. I get the synergy with Kreen, but he can attack first and die (maybe, in what order the minions attack is unknown). Could be insane, could be horrible.

1 prime every three games... so thrilled... And then in one of those 3 games one of the discovers is Kobold Geomancer Ogre Magi Dalaran Mage (or pick out of some other trash tier neutrals)

Interesting...

I think this card has potential. If you only run Beasts that cost (5) or more (unsure of the viability), then this is guaranteed to pull out two 5-drops, which is not to be laughed at. In Druid, especially, there are ways to reduce the cost of this card as well, albeit not as easily as in some other classes.

For Hunters, unfortunately, this seems a little slow. Like Druid, you could run a Big Beast package, but there are so many useful low-cost beasts in Hunter that it would hamper the class's ability to control the early game.

Better make sure you only put big beasts in your deck for this. If you do, it could be a nice amount of value overall.

Looks like they are making these study cards more interesting and useful than I thought they might. A way to get a discount draw on spell damage whenever you want seems very useful to me.

Works well with Ace Hunter Kreen. This is mostly a Control tool. It doesn't look very good for Tempo or Aggro decks. It's going to be viable if Control DH becomes viable. I don't think Hunter cares about this weapon, at all.

Very good in Mage and medicore (for now) in Shaman. 

With the discover nerf too many bad spell damage minions going around.. sure you can get the good ones but not as often.. there's a reason those minions rarely see play, they are understated and normally too expensive.. the upside of this card is that it makes them cheaper at least..

You can discover 3 and you have 2 spells you'll discover 1 prime every 3 games at least.

Quote From Vandaren

Don't forget this with [Hearthstone Card (Ace Hunter Spreen) Not Found] means you can remove almost every minion (provide you have minions on board) but since we talk about the hunters, i guess it's not that hard.

I had not thought about this; that'd be one hell of a combo

Cheap discover cards have always found a home in constructed, I believe this card is no exception.

Spell Mage and Spell Shaman have DESPERATELY needed some spell damage support for their archetypes, but more often than not slotting in a spell damage minion means having to remove a powerful spell from your deck you'd rather play.

For both classes this card can discover their class legendaries from AoO, Lady Vashj and Astromancer Solarian, as well as the spell damage minions that were introduced in RoS (although I believe that there will be MANY more spell damage minions introduced in this set). Discounting the minion by (1) makes it much more playable, as well, since what usually stops the spell damage minions from being played (aside from Malygos) is their cost and poor stats.

Other cards this spell synergies with is Mozaki, Master Duelist, Ras Frost whisper and Mana Cyclone to name a few.

This card can also be discovered by Magic Trick, Cobalt Spellkin, Wand Maker and Arcane Breath in standard, I'm not certain if Shaman can discover this spell in standard at this time. 

Regardless, a cheap, flexible card that gives a discounted minion that benefits Shaman and Mage's playstyle of using powerful spells to win the game. will see play

Reliquary of Souls Shaman Support (:

Interesting removal mechanic, but surely (Demon) Hunters want to keep their minions alive for SMOrc? Maybe I'm not seeing something, but this weapon doesn't look all that great.

I gave this card 4 stars just because I really want Spell Damage to be a thing. 

I feel like a real Spell Damage deck is almost a possible thing in wild, it just needs a few more support cards. Hopefully this gives the deck a little bit more juice.

Another Knuckles combo card! 

Minions who attack because of Trueaim and survive get to attack again, right?

Woo-hoo, odd spell damage shaman let's go!

Primordial is just such a wonderful word.

It remains to be seen how useful this card will be. Although some Spell Damage support has come out with this expansion, most of the minions currently in the game aren't exactly stellar. If they continue to print good Spell Damage cards in future expansions though, this will definitely become a must have in those decks.

This is a very weird effect, but a 1 mana 1/4 weapon is already fair stats, and the ability lets you deal so much damage. 

I actually really like how the usefulness of this ability depends heavily on what both players have on the field. Maybe you have a Sea Giant that you want to trade into multiple things using the weapon, but you also have say a Brann Bronzebeard that you don't want to die. Do you trade and let your Brann die? Or do you let their thing live?

An effect like this is powerful but there aren't enough worthwhile targets for this in standard. The best ones i can think of is Escaped Manasaber, Bad Luck Albatross, Stranglethorn Tiger and maybe Tundra Rhino. In wild it could be interesting as a deck building challenge but it probably won't be able to compete with the power level of other decks. Is it worth build a deck around this? Unless they reveal some other beasts, i don't think so.

Don't forget this with Ace Hunter Kreen means you can remove almost every minion (provide you have minions on board) but since we talk about the hunters, i guess it's not that hard.
