This is probably an include in the dragon highlander hunter list. That deck runs big ol' whelp and I think deadly shot on a stick is better. Seems like a strong card. Deadly shot isn't great in the meta right now but the body might make it playable. The condition probably isn't great for hunter, though. Even the dragon hunter list doesn't run a ton of dragons.
1 Attack of this minion and a big health to prevent card drawing makes it feel bad, so what are the ways can we really do with it? I can only think in giving it a boost with attack buff or trading well in early game, and without getting silenced (which is rare).
Honestly? These leaks are actually pretty interesting; so Paladin could actually try some sort of Menagerie tactic by going Murloc/Dragon hybrid with Scalelord and Skyfin ? This becomes even more interesting in Wild thanks to The Curator , Menagerie Warden, Zoobot and Gentle Megasaur .
Hunter gets more dragon synergy, and Warrior gets more self-wound synergy - even though it still lacks threatening and deck-defining engines for it. Explosive Evolution is an interesting tool for Shaman - even if a little bit costly - and Skydiving Instructor looks like an interesting tool for zoo/aggro decks. Everything else is alright, and can actually spark enough interest in deckbuilders to change things around
Gentle Megasaur with guaranteed divine shield on 1 turn later.
I don't know if murloc paladin with prismatic lens is going to be a thing again, my guess is that it won't happen again, but this card looks pretty strong.
Eh, I guess Skyfin and tasty [Hearthstone Card (Flyfish) Not Found] finally have a purpose. I still don't believe a Murloc/Dragon hybrid can work for Paladin.
At least not without the Curator (or just any form of reliable draw, Octosari isn't reliable enough in my opinion).
That being said, for a 5-mana card that needs a board to be useful, it at least isn't terribly statted.
We did this once during Kobolds and it didn't work that well.
There aren't even really any 1-drops that benefit from not being played normally, so what's even the point.
Maybe some Zoolock build with Battlemage, Flame Imp and Void Walker as the core 1-drops could make use of this, but I don't see the point. Warlock doesn't need deck thinning.
Most other classes get to do better things on turn 3.
I think there's too much Variance for this to be good. Warrior-Mechs are good, a lot of Dragons are good and most Lackeys are great but the pool of possibly bad Minions just becomes too big ImO.

Hopefully nothing catches on fire lol
New Rogue Minion - Skyvateer
An interesting card for sure.
ie fits both Tinker's Sharpsword Oil and Even Rogue.
Cannon Barrage too, but i doubt that card will ever get past the threshold of memes, especially after the murder of Preparation.

It looks okay and playable in a good way.

No, it would be a dragon in Battlegrounds.
(Pun intended)
New Neutral Minion - Frenzied Felwing
That seems very powerful. Mana-Cheat for Aggro.

I love the Boom squad art, but does this mean shaman and mage are the only extra legendary classes?
New Warrior Spell - Boom Squad
I think this is interesting because it offers a small minion (Lackey) and medium minion (mech) and a big minion (dragon)
New Neutral Minion - Skydiving Instructor
The card is actually a solid Aggro inclusion, although not really synergic.
Embiggen might appreciate this tho.
New Rogue Minion - Skyvateer
Maybe this helps make Cannon Barrage better?
New Warlock Spell - Twisted Knowledge
This is a good ressource generator
except
random warlock cards are usually terrible.
Granted, it's much better than Violet Haze, but it's still weak overall. Just compare it to just straight up tapping on 2 instead.
New Warrior Minion - Risky Skipper
That's probably going to replace Eternium Rover after the Rotation in almost every Aggro/Midrange-Warrior.

New Paladin Minion - Scalelord
Oh, so we're doing this again?
Eh, I guess Skyfin and tasty [Hearthstone Card (Flyfish) Not Found] finally have a purpose. I still don't believe a Murloc/Dragon hybrid can work for Paladin.

The new Happy Ghoul for zoolock. :(

New Mage Minion - Animated Avalanche
That card and the new elemental that improves your HP damage can be a headache.
An agro/midrange elemental mage Will see play for sure.
New Warrior Minion - Bomb Wrangler
Enrage Warrior? Seems really solid especially with Rampage.
17 Leaked Cards From Galakrond's Awakening, Hearthstone's New Adventure + 4 More
Haha, that is probably exactly how he looks
New Warlock Minion - Fiendish Servant
In wild, this could pair well with Power Overwhelming. Buff, make a trade, buff random friendly minion
New Warrior Spell - Boom Squad
I think there's too much Variance for this to be good. Warrior-Mechs are good, a lot of Dragons are good and most Lackeys are great but the pool of possibly bad Minions just becomes too big ImO.
New Neutral Minion - Frenzied Felwing
Not a face hunter card, it belongs to zoo warlock, pirate warrior or paladin
Face hunter doesn't care enough for the board.
New Hunter Minion - Rotnest Drake
It's...useful?
It's Deadly Shot on a stick with a minor condition. Also comparable to Vilespine Slayer for more stats but less accuracy.
I'm just not sure it's that useful in Rogue dominated Meta where lackeys and other small crap are constantly on the board.
New Druid Minion - Steel Beetle
Big Spell Druid!
