I think this is a good card, I always wanted more handspace for mage, but it also fits lock very well. The draw 4 cards are sometimes scary due to handsize, but it should feel great on this card thanks to providing 2 more slots
Very interesting effect, but I think the effect is just quite niche. I see it more as a great removal, similar to Vilespine with the addition of sometimes benefiting the special effect. Probably will be mostly used to destroy the second duplicate of some generally good minion in opponent´s deck.
Kobold Stickyfinger is better than those two cards if you are aiming at stealing a high value weapon to use for your own or counter your opponents plan, but It's a little too late for this card to shine in standard.
If this card was around the time of baku and gen paladins with their Vinecleavers or Silver Swords it could of been playable. Same for other weapons that used to see more play such as Supercollider, Spectral Cutlass and of course the infamous Kingsbane.
For the pirate tag, I don't think pirate decks would want to run this card since the stats are not good enough without the battlecry activating and it doesn't synergize with your weapons or pirates which is usually the point of a pirate deck.
If we get a new expansion with high value legendary weapons, this card might see play, but for now I prefer running Harrison Jones for the potential card draw.
Probably a repeated joke, but Volcanic potion is crying in the wild corner. I think the card is nice, smaller AoE´s are also very important and can save the whole game if they stop an opening of an aggro deck. The good thing is that the spell is good even when it hits also your side (as we know that also Volcanic potion saw play, sometimes you just don´t care about your side or as a priest maybe you don´t even have a minion in the early game on board yet)
It has a good synergy with time out, but other than that it can be a bit difficult to trigger the effect. However, the good thing is that most likely sooner or later there will come a turn when you manage to fulfill the condition. That´s the charm of this sidequest, that you almost force your opponent to choose between doing a good value trade or hitting face just to avoid dealing with a 3/6 taunt
I have to say that as a mage main I am a bit disappointed by this card. I expected something more flavourful for the expansion and also something inovative, not the same effect as the priest legendary weapon that never saw almost any play. I would love to be proven wrong and see Cyclone mage power up using this card, but I don´t believe in it yet.
Ewwwww... Please no. I hated how Kingsbane rogue would keep in check any control deck : I know it was a necessary evil against big priest, but also a real pain in the ass. It just scratch me the wrong way because Bibli took so much time to fix anything (but you know fuck wild! ), but you're right it's still good to have just to be safe.
Very similar to Curious Glimmerroot, still harder to trigger since there are a lot of ways for your opponent to gain in his hands randomly generated cards.
It's a pretty neat effect. Instead of putting Arch-Thief Rafaam in the deck you can play this plus Plot Twist to try and get an extra boost of a few random legendaries instead of turning the entire remaining deck into random legendaries.
Still obviously a very random effect for memes, but not too bad!

Face hunter. Patron warrior. Combo druid. Ptsd intensifies...

I think that a 2 mana cost would have been enough, 3 mana seems a little too overpriced to me.

New Neutral Minion - Kobold Stickyfinger
This card competes against Acidic Swamp Ooze and Harrison Jones. Acidic Swamp Ooze is better for the early game and has good vanilla stats while Harrison Jones has ok stats and can give you a large amount of card draw.
Kobold Stickyfinger is better than those two cards if you are aiming at stealing a high value weapon to use for your own or counter your opponents plan, but It's a little too late for this card to shine in standard.

Seems like Rogue got not only the best Galakrond, but even the best Galakrond-related cards! This is very good!

Necrium Apothecary
Hope this is going to give a boost to Big Rogue, if so I'm looking forward to play it!
Waxadred
It won't probably see any play, still I love those virtually-infinite-value concept cards.

Flik Skyshiv
I love the effect, very unique!
(I just realized that Galakrond-related classes will get THREE legendaries! Cool!)
New Mage Minion - Chenvaala

Galakrond, the Nightmare
Never give rogue too much (0) cost cards! This is gonna be insane...
New Hunter Minion - Diving Gryphon
very good card, cards that draw a specific card and are even good themselves are just... good!
New Hunter Minion - Veranus
I think this is a great card, even if used with let´s say only two 1/1 rushers, the Springpaws, it is still such a good tempo switch
Time Rip
Pretty boring card, still it will be a must in Galakrond decks.
Kobold Stickyfinger

Fate Weaver
I don't know if I would swap Twilight Guardian for this in a Dragon priest deck, honestly.
Galakrond, the Unspeakable
Finally a new Hero card for priest! After machinegun Priest has been nerfed, I was looking for that.
Sand Breath
Too undertone to fit the dragon theme IMHO.
Dwarven Sharpshooter
So how come this one is common and the old one was epic ?
I'm really wondering how a card's rarity is decided ...
Amber Watcher
Antique Healbot : you
Amber Watcher : the guy your girl tells you to not worry about
Corrosive Breath
I would play it even without dragons. 2 mana 3 dmg is solid and sees play in every class which has such a card.
