Druid and a lot of spells? Maly druid? But more card draw - worth it? Not so sure. And the discard shizzle is something I didn't like in the Book of spectres and I don't like it here - too much of a gamble imo.
I think those Prime cards are the hidden gems in the expansion. I like them a lot and I hope this won't be the first and last expansion we see them in.
that's a fair point I didn't think about that actually.
But again, that's a pretty specific combo that only comes online at most turn 7, which is usually when powerful stuff starts to happen anyways.
I'm actually looking forward to playing this now and I still don't believe it will get out of hand...at least not in comparison to other stuff we'll be getting.
The point of moving him to classic is so people don't have to keep playing the same deck and can learn different archetypes without building each recipe
This. Plus "competitive" is very subjective--historically the Tier 1 decks as defined by HsReplay typically show 4-8 legendaries, I'm extremely skeptical that Blizzard is going to just give away that much dust. It's more likely that you pick the class and then Blizzard will give you their choice (read: the cheaper option which only includes 1-2 legendaries) of two deck recipes they publish, so the comparison is more like losing access to all 18 Whizbang decks in exchange for owning your choice out of the worst 9.
KANSAS - I believe someone created a Murlocs -> Pirates idea already among the submissions. Beyond that, I just don't find the effect that interesting.
@KANSAS: This effect might as well be a meme considering how many people have mentioned/tried it over the years in custom card design. Someone has already designed a similar one for this comp (theirs buffs as well, but I think it's too wordy). I think you'd be better off trying something more original.
KANSAS: Again, I like it, but effect's been overdone too unfortunately.
KANSAS: Nice flavor, but as suspected, there's already another submission with a very similar effect. I like yours better, if that helps. Maybe you can change the effect and keep the rest of it?
Thanks for the feedback
I didn't really feel too strong about the card, I agree that this kind of card has been a bit overdone and isn't too original. Do you think I should make another Cookie card but with a different effect? Or would I be better off coming up with something else altogether?
It's a 5-mana 4/2 weapon that requires you to have a board the turn you play it in order to use it.
This means:
a) if you don'T swing immediately you've just spent 5-mana to do nothing and open yourself up to weapon removal (something that's way more common now thanks to Zephrys)
b) if you do have a board it might not be an ideal one to evolve
c) The only cards currently in the game that benefit a lot from Evolve are Mogu Fleshshaper and Desert Hare, neither of which are particularly powerful as standalones and won't come down together with this before like turn 6 or 7.
I'm not saying this is bad or won't see play, but anyone who compares this to Evolve Shaman from Doom Tomb days is being silly. Hell, Evolve wasn't even that big of a deal when it first came out.

Demon Hunters will Eventually Receive Cards in the Classic Hearthstone Set
Great - there were some rumors that Demon Hunter wouldn't be a permanent class. Those fears are now assuaged.
New Shaman Weapon - Boggspine Knuckles
This one, with it's 5mana cost, is even worse than the 3/3 minion for 3mana.
I don't see Evolve shaman be a thing - but hey, it's just the beginning of the reveal season - I have nothing against evolve proving me wrong :).

Evolve shenanigans again?
I don't like it even one bit. It can be a huge tempo swing or swing and a miss - and you need to be on board for that to even be playable.

Cool design, but Rogue might need more secrets to make it work since Rogue secrets aren't played that often currently.

Never tried it, but I'm sure Handbuffs don't work on him.
Would be interesting if it did though... He could use something to boost his Playrate.

The fact that it discounts every third spell and not just the third one opens up a lot of deck building space
Bogstrok Clacker & Boggspine Knuckles are New Shaman Cards Revealed for Hearthstone's Ashes of Outland Expansion
The Pirate minion that re-equips a destroyed weapon is pretty sick with this, actually.
turns a 4 mana minion into a 5 mana with a weapon charge (that's IF you don't have other minions on the board).
If nothing else that weapon looks fun

Wait, if you buff Lord Jaraxxus while he is in your hand, will you get a 5/8 weapon and 17 life?

Wow, this card is crazy. Sap is already a good card, this is exactly the same except better in every conceivable way.
