The reason why you don't see more of it is because it's basically big priest 2.0. Extremely one-dimensional, unfun to play against and very draw reliant.
The reason why big priest players haven't switched to shaman yet is because they either stopped playing due to the deck being near-useless at this point (and rightfully so), or because they're extremely slow on the uptake and haven't gotten wind of this new deck yet.
With the difference that Big Priest can do sth. Shaman isn't good at: "Rise again, my heroes!" *multiple Rags and statues comes out of the ashes.
I strangely have been drawing a complete blank when it comes to biclass cards. Which is odd, because I'm super excited about the Hunter/Demon Hunter cards after playing and really enjoying Aranna in the Rumbledome Brawl we had a few weeks back. Maybe I just need to see some more reveals to get the juices going.
They give us the mechanic (spellburst) and the tech on the same set, I guess it was probably because there will be some insane combos if your opponent have a really nice hand
Seem like Team 5 is pushing spell shaman on the Year of Phoenix, with AoO mechanic, if you played a spell on the previous turn then x, and now with Scholomance, maybe Shaman decks will not be in the last place of the rank
Maybe if you could get some Aldor Attendant the Libram of Hope will be a 1 mana 8/8 divine shield or a free Libram of Justice. Bacause Scholomance is a magic school I guess that there are more librams on the horizon
She has to stay alive for one turn in order to take advantage of the spellburst, if you are behind on field, maybe sh'es just straight dead on the turn you summon her
You really don’t need to because the frequency of your threats are often more than enough to get the job done. Trust me, when I first saw BS, I joined on because it looked fun but it carried me to diamond in a few days (admittedly the win rate has slowed down now, but I’m certain I can get 5 and with enough luck Legend by the end of the month.
the main attraction is that it is very fun. It’s a high tier 2 or low tier 1 imo.
Scholomance Teddy?
yes, pay no attention to the rumors of Kel'Thuzad stealing student's souls...
Quest Trading - Play A Friend!
Battletag: QUICKSAND#2208
Region: EU
Trade Only?: Yes, you go first, I'll show quest
Wand Thief
Conditional Magic Trick with better spells and a body, [b]and[/b] rogue gets to play it too. Seems really good.
Big Archivist Shaman is insane fun and effective as well
Except shaman can do basically the same thanks to Vivid Spores and Ancestral Spirit
Scholomance Teddy?
Sholomancy is a lighthearted set, it's a Harry Potter setting if anything nothing spooky about it
Wand Thief
Let me introduce you the Burglar Mage Archetype!!!!
Devolving Missiles
Spell mage got another tool to counter opponent board
Shan'do Wildclaw
Big beast druid with Untapped Potential shanenigans
Animated Broomstick
Houndmaster Shaw soul was trapped in a broom
140 hours till the next reveal-ample time for a card design competition?

Wretched Tutor
Ok, just another board clean for paladin with Libram of Justice, now you have 2 more enablers for that
Onyx Magescribe
Turn 5: Cobalt Spellkin
Turn 6: ????
Turn 7: Onyx Magescribe + 1 cost spell
Profit.
Cult Neophyte

Troublemaker
In wild it will become a nightmare with Drakkari Enchanter, maybe can clean the foe's board with a little effort
Rattlegore
"You have to kill it 9 times"
Yes, it's a nightmare, but now I see why they have being disposing of silence... they are pushing very heavy deathrattles like Primes and this card.
JumpStart is Now Live on MTG Arena - Here's Everything You Need to Know
If you resign and select new packets (paying the fee again of course), do you get to keep the cards from the previous selection?

New Mage/Rogue Minion - Wand Thief
Great card for Rogue... not so much Mage imo. It may find a use in Mage, maybe not, but it more than likely find a home in almost any Rogue Deck.
Let's speculate Dual class cards
side question, can this be the first step into creating a different game mode with decks being able to run dual class as in MTG?
Frazzled Freshman
Wild Inner Fire potential, it has a lot of stats for a 1 mana drop
First Day of School
Maybe if you could get some Aldor Attendant the Libram of Hope will be a 1 mana 8/8 divine shield or a free Libram of Justice. Bacause Scholomance is a magic school I guess that there are more librams on the horizon

Nature Studies
Another bullet for spell druid, and can bring a huge swing of tempo with the cost reduction, set an otk or give you a strong board pressence.
Survival of the Fittest
This card mixed with a lot of tokens can bring an incredible burst potential, or just another Kael'thas Sunstrider OTK combo
