Imo Edwin rewards the good game play aspect of risk taking, something that has been eroding from the game imo.
You dedicate many of your resources early to midway during your game and potentially get rewarded with a lot of pressure/damage, and sometimes even with a win. This is quite different from just getting lucky and pulling off a win due to silly rng, or from using 1-2 cards (such as back in the Barnes/Big/Priest/Y'Sharjj days) that won you games without dedicating many of your resources.
In other words Edwin rewards good game play in the hands of more experienced players who weigh when they can maybe get a read on a good risk-taking.
Honestly seems like a non-issue here to keep Illidan as a card and a hero. The whole confusing to players catch-phrase holds no water here and would serve to insult players are drooling idiots.
I never understood the whole not making heroes into cards thing from nearly the start of HS itself.
Zoo can use it in the same way it used Arch-Villain Rafaam, but it's not going to be an average play for Zoo, as early turns don't fit with randomness.
Renounce Darkness, but playable for Handlock, to transition from Control to Tempo mode.
Could be a better soul infusion and zoo plays that doesn't it? Soul infusion for your entire hand? And it doesnt whiff on no minions. Sounds pretty good to me.
I really hope that future expansions will just jump into reveal season like this instead of the old two-week silence. This is way better for building hype.

Hearthstone’s Priest Class is Receiving Huge Changes! New Basic and Classic Priest Cards
I enjoyed the combo style priest decks and hated the thief ones, so fun is subjective

New Shaman Minion - Bogstrok Clacker
Not sure, if this card will see play. It's similar to that one guy from Old Gods Set, which don't see play in general.
