Bit interesting that it’s a passive effect rather than a battlecry. Means it’ll just get weaker the more minions you play a lot of the time. Not that great
I'm not sure 1 charge of supercollider would be worth playing, even if you don't have to tank the minion with your face for it to happen. Sometimes one charge is game-winning, sure, but typically it's the ability to threaten to neuter a board turn after turn that makes that weapon so good.
As always I will stress that +2 spell damage is an incredibly powerful and often overlooked ability, the statline on this card is also insane for this effect.
This is a powerful card, although I do wonder if it will ever see play for the fact that it doesn't really fit into the archetypes that I predict will be powerful (Galakrond and Quest).
My hope is that shaman is split between so many powerhouses that don't really work together, that their power level doesn't really rise from where SoU put it.
I suppose dragon shaman needed something other than Lightning Breath to pull it together, and this looks more like that 'something' than Nithogg does.
Despite the many ways in which self damage and AOE are a boon to Warlock, the opportunity cost of running such a weak card in your deck is so high that I don't think this would see play at zero mana, let alone one. (E.g. does Beakered Lightning see any play despite the overload synergies?)
Elemental Allies
yes! some support again for my wild elemental deck.
We will see how this will do in standard. But for wild I don't think it will be that game changing.
Fun card though. tutoring 3 cards is really good
New Neutral Minion - Grizzled Wizard
Another meme epic and a bad card at that.

Goboglide Tech
might help mech pala
New Neutral Minion - Hippogryph
agreed. could see play but the rush only in desperate case
New Neutral Minion - Gyrocopter
A mech with windfury and rush and with 5 hp it can remove maybe 2 targets - seems kinda strong.
New Priest Spell - Grave Rune
interesting for deathrattle priest. we already have several support cards, not sure what else it'll need?
Disciple of Galakrond
One of the best galakrond invokers out there, after the shaman's minion one. very playable, 4/5
Living Dragonbreath
would it also unfreeze if you already have frozen minions
New Warrior Spell - Ramming Speed

Hippogryph
mini warbear
Rolling Fireball
Eventhough i dont like mage, i really like this card. Very nice design. I would accept rng for such cards

New Neutral Minion - Living Dragonbreath
sarcasm mode on: strong card vs freeze mage
Skyfin
so disapointed
New Druid Spell - Strength in Numbers
Bad if you’re running a decent amount of early game, but if you run a lot of late game it gets really inconsistent. Doubt this’ll see that much play
New Mage Spell - Rolling Fireball
like flame lance except it keeps going for a bit combined with spell damage and it could wipe 3 or more minions
New Neutral Minion - Goboglide Tech
great card for hunters, paladins and warrior
Troll Batrider
not even that good for arena. 1/5
New Neutral Minion - Parachute Brigand
0 mana 2/2? yeah thats meta breaking for sure.
Gyrocopter
seems playable
The Final Descent of Dragons Reveal Stream - 47 New Cards! LIVE COVERAGE
Aaand, none of these cards can threaten Wild topdecks.
Dragon's Pack
I thought this card would be trash, but after seeing it in play i changed my mind. Definitely meta defining.
New Neutral Minion - Fire Hawk
woowww this is a strong 3 drop. a really scary one
