2 randomn dragons that cost 0? That's nearly always good! Wait does this also add random class dragons? If so it's a super strong card and a must have in any Highlander deck! If not then i still see it as An insta-include! Mana cheating has always been An super powerfull effect.
If you only get one 5/5, then you still got a 5/5 and a 2/5 for 3 mana. That is a pretty good deal. Keep in mind that you can only generate one 5/5 each turn, and this will only happen on at least turn 6, and you will probably have to end up getting less than ideal value for your spells.
Is that true? That's NOT how Dragon Soul worked (see the Disguised Toast vid below - he plays 6 spells on turn 5 and gets 2 dragons) so it would be weird for this to play differently...

umm yeah u candefinitely summon more than one in a turn
Sanctuary (4) - Insane card to open with. It either forces opponents into suboptimal face hits to prevent a 3/6 tempo swing or potentially forces 2 mana pings early. Coin this out early and you probably win on turn 2. It also protects your own board from trades, and this fits perfectly into Paladins plans.
Zul'Drak Ritualist (3) - Probably still decent in some situations. 3 extra small minions can have minimal impact in some classes or board states.
Flik Skyshiv (5) - Less conditional Vilespine Slayer on average. Occasionally a board clear (example: Silverhand Recruits), and occasionally nuke your own guy.
Valdris Felgorge (4) - Not the right class for the ability, but great value card regardless.
Abyssal Summoner (4) - At 6 mana, it's fair. You'll need at least 4 cards in hand to break even, which seems reasonable by turn 6.
Chromatic Egg - (3) - Probably similar to Mechano Egg with the 8/8 Devilsaur. Really slow card, and most Dragons either have strong battlecries or lack initiative like Rush, so the Discover minion will have delayed impact as a big body only usually.
Dragon Breeder - (4) - Reasonable card with some upside. Should be consistent to get value from this card for 2 mana.
I think this might be a good card, but not sure if it will be played.
After all, you cant just kill the tokens and be done with it, you are also forced to deal with a 7 health minion. If you ignore it, it will be a potential threat on the following turn. So you need to use an AoE that deals at least 7 damage or use an AoE and/or trade a minion/use another spell to get rid of it
So yeah, its really bothersome to get rid of it. But then again, will the pay off be worth it?
This for sure gives you a reason to play the LoE classes and maybe even a reason to try building some of the E.V.I.L. classes as Dragon Highlander decks. This is a cool card with a powerful effect. Just want we want from our bit late game drops. This is going to be one of those defining cards from the expansion in the best kind of way.
It's a solid, albeit slow card that's definitively viable. I'm really interested in making a Dragon Highlander Mage, which currently looks the the primary class for that archetype. This might be too slow for Hunter.
I don't play Cyclone Mage, so this card isn't for me and I can't fully evaluate it. That being said Dragon Soul was a failure, and I feel like putting it on a temporary body - even for a class that cycle their spells better - is another recipe for failure. I gave it 3 stars in case things turn out okay.

It's chain destruction (YuGiOh)! Depending on the target, this could be good tech against certain combo decks, or just good against specific cards in general.
Awesome card, hope I pull some. We still need to see the Warrior's Invoke cards - come on, Blizz! - but this looks like an auto-include for sure. The more we see of Galakrond Warrior, the more excited I become.
Dragon Soul never saw much play, so hard to say that this will. And a 2/5 can be removed much more easily than a weapon. Could do some big stuff though.

You can see Sindragosa in the trailer tho, at 1:13
Random free packs?
I also got random packs, this morning I got 1 pack, then another just now. Both of them said "Your web purchase of 1 pack will be available soon".
I have no idea that that means.

I also got a pack, but I picked the winning team so shouldn't that be more? Also I didn't get any on the EU server, only NA and Asia.
Legendary Card Reveal - Dragonqueen Alexstrasza
Hunter already has both legs revealed.
New Mage Minion - Chenvaala
Insanely good with Sorcerer Apprentice and mana cyclone. This might get cyclone mage back on track
Random free packs?
Thanks very much!
Random free packs?
That should be what it is for, yeah. One for picking a team, one additional pack because your team was the winner.
Legendary Card Reveal - Dragonqueen Alexstrasza
Even?
New Neutral Minion - Dragonqueen Alexstrasza
I'm crafting Alex for sure. Slot her in my Highlander Dragon Hunter alongside Dinotamer Brann for even more late-game freebies. Muhahaha!
No but seriously she's a really good card that will help the Good classes stand against Galakrond. Her potential is insane.
Random free packs?
Just logged in and was given two free descent of the dragons packs but not sure why?
Not complaining at all but don't know if this is from maybe picking the battlegrounds team some time ago?

Highlander-Decks are my favorite Archetype, so yeah safe craft for my Reno-Dragon-Priest!

Another good card for cyclone mage. It replaces a flamewaker, the effect is Strong and easy to activate.

Galakrond, the Wretched
I am of the opinion that this is easily the weakest Galakrond out of the 4
The hero power feels weak for that late in the game, despite being a good Jumbo Imp enabler.
Of course, not being a big zoolock player, as I am more familiar with the hand or controlock, I am possibly biased
We can all agree the battlecry is crap though, most demons are really bad, with disadvantageous effects and have bad stats all around.
I will gladly be wrong though
