Guess it's made for decks that run dragons as a draw engine and minion summoning. However, many dragons have good battlecries, which are usually preferable to having the body on the board.
I don't know how useful it will be in standard. I see it as a mid late game card when you can make your spells cheaper and summon 2 or more elementals. In wild it'll be very powerful.
Cool design, but the delayed response (deathrattle) may limit its use too much than faceless manipulator (battle cry). There are strong minions that you want to copy for 3 costs and having a 3/3 on board, so it may overall be a balanced card to see some play.
Seems to be a very fun card to play, although similar to Renounce Darkness, you don't get thee cost discount, which can be pretty big in terms of maintaining tempo.
If a Galakrond deck has to be above the rest, it might be the one. 8/8's rush? Dominating classes tend to be put aside next expansion but it might not be the case here. The Gal/shaman archetype seems pretty strong to me so far, at least on paper.
I guess some people are going to find some sort of fun way to play this card by giving the opponent a useless hero power. Otherwise, it seems to just be a good stated 2-cost minion for arena
The overall control toolkit looks very strong, definitely want to include this. RNG is not good thing, but having guaranteed one more card per turn is better than drawing only 1 card for control styles.
If Galakrond shaman is a thing, this is going to make a lot of people cry : 10/12 taunt divided on two bodies for 5 mana with no overload? Really? This seems way to good, but with the general power surge, who knows.
It's a pretty good card for a Dragon hunter deck. Always having a 3 attack weapon it's pretty good. Let's hope that Dragon Hunter decks are good enough and this card 'll see a lot of play
Instant craft if you play mech Hunter. Also great if you play a highlander deck with mechs. It could work in an aggro smorc deck too. Even hunter in wild seems fun to play too. Great card!
New Priest Minion - Fate Weaver
Strong effect for control and combo decks, should see play for sure.
New Mage Minion - Mana Giant
A really great addition to Cyclone Mage. Awesome in Wild too because it's cheaper than Arcane Giant
Utgarde Grapplesniper

New Mage Minion - Chenvaala
I don't know how useful it will be in standard. I see it as a mid late game card when you can make your spells cheaper and summon 2 or more elementals. In wild it'll be very powerful.
New Mage Minion - Malygos, Aspect of Magic
Interesting concept. Very flexible card that let's you choose what you need. And the upgraded spells are pretty strong too!
New Priest Minion - Mindflayer Kaahrj
Cool design, but the delayed response (deathrattle) may limit its use too much than faceless manipulator (battle cry). There are strong minions that you want to copy for 3 costs and having a 3/3 on board, so it may overall be a balanced card to see some play.
Wyrmrest Purifier

Blazing Battlemage
Textless cards have no chance to be played on ladder, in arena though it's a different story.
New Shaman Hero - Galakrond, the Tempest
If a Galakrond deck has to be above the rest, it might be the one. 8/8's rush? Dominating classes tend to be put aside next expansion but it might not be the case here. The Gal/shaman archetype seems pretty strong to me so far, at least on paper.
Grizzled Wizard

Hot Air Balloon
Imho too weak, even for a one drop. Mecharoo is always a better choice.
New Hunter Minion - Dwarven Sharpshooter
This card is pretty strong. You play it on curve and control the board.
New Hunter Spell - Corrosive Breath
In a Smorc hunter dragon beast deck will fit nicely. Also great removal.
New Priest Hero - Galakrond, the Unspeakable
The overall control toolkit looks very strong, definitely want to include this. RNG is not good thing, but having guaranteed one more card per turn is better than drawing only 1 card for control styles.
New Hunter Minion - Primordial Explorer
Excellent card. It discovers a dragon and has poison. You can put it in a highlander deck for the extra value or even in quest hunter.
New Hunter Spell - Clear the Way
A support card for Quest Hunter with a very good reward. I think Quest Hunter will be a pretty good deck with the recent cards from this expansion
New Priest Minion - Murozond the Infinite
Crazy good and fun card for a control archetype and tests your judgement about timing. No. 1 wanted card in this set.
New Hunter Minion - Phase Stalker
It has good stats and it casts a secret from your deck. And it's a beast! Great addition to Secret Hunter decks.
New Hunter Minion - Diving Gryphon
Draw is always welcome for Hunter. It also supports the sidequest. It'll find a home in Quest Hunter. In Wild it's a perfect addition for Odd Hunter.
New Shaman Spell - Dragon's Pack
If Galakrond shaman is a thing, this is going to make a lot of people cry : 10/12 taunt divided on two bodies for 5 mana with no overload? Really? This seems way to good, but with the general power surge, who knows.
New Hunter Spell - Toxic Reinforcements
Support for SmorC Hunter. In standard you can play too in Quest Decks. In wild will find it's home in Odd Hunter.
New Hunter Weapon - Stormhammer
It's a pretty good card for a Dragon hunter deck. Always having a 3 attack weapon it's pretty good. Let's hope that Dragon Hunter decks are good enough and this card 'll see a lot of play
New Paladin Spell - Sand Breath
Good dragon deck supporting card due to being 2 cards in 1. Good in early games, but the value falls off quickly.
New Hunter Minion - Dragonbane
Instant craft if you play mech Hunter. Also great if you play a highlander deck with mechs. It could work in an aggro smorc deck too. Even hunter in wild seems fun to play too. Great card!
New Paladin Minion - Bronze Explorer
Strong arena card. A good supporting card for dragon paladin.
