Druid will be able to use this way better than Hunter. Hunter has too many small beasts that they don't want to pull, and they also want to close out games before turn 7, or on turn 7 with Dinotamer Brann. Druid on the other hand has some decent medium beasts, and also more ramp which allows them to play this on turn 5/6.

Right now the pool is great isn't it.. at just 1 mana i believe this can see play considering it benefits both mage and rogue

Mage : This can discover Astromancer Solarian and Ras Frostwhisper, so it will see A LOT of play in highlander mage, and mainly in burn mage, as they LOVE cheap spells. And they like spell damage minions as well so they can burst even more dmg to the opponents face. Also Primordial Studies can be discovered by cards like Magic Trick. So this will see a lot of use, even if you don't slot it in a deck. Also it will certainly see play in some Casino/Random Mage decks in WILD. (I certainly will. a chance to get multiple Astromancer Solarians is really good/fun!)

Shaman: This can certainly help out the spell-damage shaman archetype. This can discover Squallhunter and Ras Frostwhisper, so that's pretty good. Will certainly see play in spell-damage shaman, and maybe play in highlander shaman?

The bad thing about this card is the Discover Nerf from quite some time ago (Thanks Dr. Boom, Mad Genius and Omega Assembly), in this case it means that neutral spell-damage minions are as likely to show up as class spell-damage minions. This nerfs the card a bit, because there are a lot of bad spell-damage minions, like: Mana Reservoir, Dalaran Mage, Ancient Mage and Ogre Magi. (But of course this also means there is a chance to discover Bloodmage Thalnos as well = more card draw. Also there are not that many spell-damage minions in standard, so this downside isn't THAT bad.)

Tier list is here for 1.6

Ash Sej is only one of the lists at the top which is very beatable with any control brew

Second we have mf bannerman

Third is TF Ezreal like you're running.

We also see bilge possible being the solution for old elusive decks, and old burn decks that were nerfed.

And we have an additional two Ezreal brews in tier 2.

Whenever I see something like that, I know there in need of a minor tweak.

What it sounds like here is that you're struggling against slow decks like shadow and freijord, and cards like riptide rex as a 3 of will help, and so will yoink as much as I hate to say it, because you can steal their glimpse and use it to counter their own removal, although it's a liability against deep so up to you.

But he attacks the target too probably  dies

Nice name of the card ;) 

It's a nice way to get spell damage for Spell-only Mage. Also Cyclone bait.

that's....new?

I'm really not sure how good this is seeing how plenty of neutral spell damage minions are utter garbage.

you're probably right. Its more of a mage card. But I wouldn't count this one out of shaman yet

Yet another card that looks like a fan creation come to life.

This card is pretty slow, most of the time I don't think you would play this on turn 9, but if you can cheat it out it is insane. If Big Demons Demon Hunter doesn't work out, this card won't see play, but if that deck does work out, this is just too many stats to ignore.

Its likely more gimmicky than it seems. Candleshot was good because that was a meta without good weapons for hunter, and the immunity actually helps. This one doesn't have immunity and can actually sometimes just destroy your board with inefficient trading.

Also it does like 1 damage, a major downside for both classes to be honest.

Next minion with spell damage will cost 1 less

Nope, there are way too many neutral spell damage minions diluting the pool

Essentially its a removal option that very likely makes positioning more relevant in both classes.

I like the idea, but in most cases, you'd rather have a weapon that can deal with a minion by itself, not count on the board to do it for you. In hunter, there's just a chance of it being included as a one-off. But dhunters have the much better Umberwing, which makes this card harder to slot in.

Yes, it makes Ace Hunter Kreen more interesting. But considering that the card is only really good when kreen is available i.e. the same turn he is played, its unlikely you can use the other 3 charges of the weapon without massively damaging your board and self.

Also, its a 1 damage weapon. And we all know where to point our weapons in hunter and dhunters, don't we?

Mage gets better discovers, because remember shaman cannot discover mage minions, so their pool is much worse actually

This is better in mage than in shaman, because mage has some nice legendary spell damage minions. Though it is marginal, because there are like 8 neutrals all of which are mostly low rolls...

Cool spell...

Flexible, powerful, and more importantly, essentially free, since the minion you get will also get a 1 mana discount.

Good all around card that I just can't find reasons for mage to not include. For shaman it might be a little more trickier, but not by much.

The pool is less narrow than you might think.

There are a lot of very bad neutral spell damage minions, enough that I don't expect this to see a lot of play.

Pretty good mana cheater. Definitely combo potential here for someone to discover.

The pool is about 17 minions in standard currently, including 2 eventually-prime legendaries.

Its just a good card. That it gives you a minion makes it all the better. All mage and shaman decks can use this in some way. Since it also cheapens your next spell damage minion, you can easily keep it for a later turn for a boosted spell.

Maybe its a little to specialized for shaman. Mage will certainly be making way for this

I think they're all meant to reduce the cost of the card type they discover, it just happened that the druid one was spells.

There are some good options to be discovered, including the primes. Good card
