I can see this being good if Galakrond decks are extremely popular, and I’m someone that sees potential in Galakrond Priest. This will be one of the few ways of potentially getting more Invoke cards without sacrificing too much tempo by using spells to steal cards.
This is why I love the community. You guys always have the most unexpected idea.
It isn't that farfetch though. The class's RoS set is focusing creating multiple copies of a specific spell, so every cheap / high impact spells printed for the class can easily become the target of a new deck in both Standard and Wild.
I'm kind of confused about the Secret Lover last text though.
I’ve heard complaints about this possibly buffing big dragons before you can play them. I’m envisioning a deck with NuZdormu to correct this problem, plus maybe Immortal Prelate, Da Undatakah, Baleful Banker, or possibly the Quest package.
Compare to Unleash the Beast, and it's much cheaper. Nice that it triggers off summoning, not playing. Not bad to add to your Zul'Jin pool, but still not very powerful.
This is exactly what I want to do with this card. Gonk combos are hard to set up, but when you pull it off, DAMN it's fun! Just watching Malfurion smack face 7 or 8 times in a row makes me cackle with glee.
I see a lot of hate for this, but I honestly think this is the most meta defining of the four we’ve seen so far. Summoning two 1/1 imps every time you Invoke is pretty powerful. Also, the Battlecry is nothing to sneeze at. Summoning random demons is usually better than putting them in your hand, due to many of them having negative battlecries, and if I’m getting the fully upgraded BC, I’m not even going to be too upset with getting 3/3s. I’m looking forward to Warlock getting a good Demon deck.
Play all 6 copies of Claw so your hero has 12 attack.
Play 2 copies of Savage Striker to deal 24 damage your opponent's face!
Then you can punch them for another 12 dealing a total of 36 damage!
The beauty of this combo is that you only need to draw 4 cards to get the full combo, albeit it does take up a lot of space in your hand, but it should be pretty easy to get around that.
Another thing to note is that emperor thaurissan will reduce the cost of this combo from 10 to 2 with just one proc, so you can add whatever other card you want to the combo in order to deal extra damage.
Since you can only play 1 copy of the Sidequest at the time, this combo seems very slow. Or is it Gonk's time to shine xd
New Neutral Minion - Devoted Maniac
I think this will see play in Warlock and Warrior, but not Priest or Rogue.
New Priest Minion - Fate Weaver
Without mindblast card looks too slow and useless
New Paladin Spell - Sand Breath
''Sand Breath'' now that's an insult!
New Mage Spell - Learn Draconic
Best side quest imo, one mana buffed up arcane tyrant
New Neutral Minion - Shield of Galakrond
A solid card. All Galakrond decks will run this.
New Rogue Minion - Waxadred
Someone is gonna make some crazy trolden moment day 1. I can already feel it
New Priest Minion - Envoy of Lazul

New Druid Spell - Secure the Deck
I’m glad to see some new stuff for druid. The new quest helped bring SOME life back to the class, but it needs to be stronger.
New Mage Minion - Malygos, Aspect of Magic
Top tier card imo versatile, sticky, good value we just need good mage dragons

New Hunter Spell - Clear the Way
Maybe early in the expansion might see play but dont think will see play ever again. Top decking quest in middle of game would suck

New Hunter Minion - Primordial Explorer
Its a solid card even without the poison, I would play this card over snip snap on reno hunter now
New Rogue Hero - Galakrond, the Nightmare
COMBO ROGUE! WOOOOOOOOOO!
Clear the Way
Compare to Unleash the Beast, and it's much cheaper. Nice that it triggers off summoning, not playing. Not bad to add to your Zul'Jin pool, but still not very powerful.
New Rogue Minion - Waxadred
The deathrattle aspect makes it a little tricky, but still worth trying.
New Rogue Minion - Umbral Skulker
This with Edwin in hand is CRAZY! T1 Invoke, T2 Invoke, T3 13/13 stats on board
New Rogue Spell - Candle Breath
Even if Dragon Rogue isn’t a thing, any Rogue deck with sufficient Lackey generation will use this.
Secure the Deck
This is exactly what I want to do with this card. Gonk combos are hard to set up, but when you pull it off, DAMN it's fun! Just watching Malfurion smack face 7 or 8 times in a row makes me cackle with glee.
New Hunter Spell - Clear the Way
This seems MUCH better than the other side quest. Great midrange card, rewards you for doing what you want to do anyway.
New Druid Spell - Secure the Deck
I bet this will make some Maly craziness happen somewhere. Or Togwaggle in Wild.
New Warrior Hero - Galakrond, the Unbreakable
Step 1: Have Galakrond the Unbreakable in your deck
Step 2: Run a lot of Charge minions, combined with Taunts
Step 3: Invoke
Step 4: SMOrc with massive Charge minions
Step 5: Legend
New Hunter Spell - Clear the Way
Decent addition to Quest Hunter, but it doesn't seem to strong otherwise though
