Honestly pretty great for Shaman. Shaman has a lot of great 4 drops as well as battlecry synergy.
Jeweled Scarab used to be a god gift to shaman because Hex was 3 mana, and by means god gift, I mean it was wonderful to get another hex.
I like your idea, but his guy looks very weak though as 3 mana, I don’t think it’s worth it to add a slower jeweled scarab into your deck. Jeweled scarab in my opinion was way much better back then when shaman had an access to hex, but jeweled scarab wasn’t a super good card too.
More like a better Harvest Golem, which is sometimes good enough to see play. Paladin needs cheap Reborn minions for its quest, and I think this fits the bill better than some of the 1 and 2 drops. Bone Wraith will definitely make the cut in that kind of deck, and this might help make it viable.
I guess you are right when comparing to Harvest Golem. But after seeing the whole set, what's the real pay-off of the quest reward? What's the real win-condition and why not play the well-known magnetic buff deck instead?
I was a Standard Secret Mage skeptic, but this is the card that makes the archetype work. No doubt Conjurer's Calling isn't going away, but now folks will make a Secrets version.
This looks like a very useful minion for Shaman. Can remove something, discounts fairly easily against some archetypes, and also a 7 cost card that can be evolved after you play it cheap.

I think it's crazy that the secret you draw just stays at zero mana, like when I first saw it on stream I thought it was "It costs (0) this turn" but this is way more powerful, the two obvious synergies from this set are Arcane Flakmage and Cloud Prince.
Turn two play Ancient Mysteries turn 3 playArcane Flakmage and the zero cost secret to almost always clear your opponents board.
New Hunter Spell - Unseal the Vault
I'm pretty sure this is going to be fantastic. It synergizes really well with Zul'Jin. It's a finisher on top of an already fantastic finisher.
Blatant Decoy
I love the reference to the Trojan horse in the artwork.
New Shaman Spell - Totemic Surge
Totally nuts.
New Neutral Minion - Body Wrapper
Anti Combodisruptor potential

New Hunter Spell - Unseal the Vault
This quest is perfect after the first quest. Play the Marsh Queen, fill your deck of tiny raptors, play the second quest.
Oh, the memes!
New Neutral Minion - Blatant Decoy
Anka, the Buried -> Backstab Blatant Decoy into Malygos -> 2x Eviscerate + 2x Sinister Strike + Shiv for 40 damage.

New Neutral Minion - Candletaker
Nothing too special about this but i can see it being used in arena at the very least.
New Mage Spell - Ancient Mysteries

New Neutral Minion - Zephrys the Great
no thats not what it means I think it means that it would offer you a card from the whole Basic and classic collection
New Hunter Minion - Hyena Alpha
4 mana 7/7 of stats lol. This is a very strong card for Hunter. Can be great tempo.
Saviors of Uldum - 5 Pack Bundles Giveaway

Body Wrapper
I can see myself playing this card in Highlander Decks.
New Shaman Minion - Mogu Fleshshaper
This looks like a very useful minion for Shaman. Can remove something, discounts fairly easily against some archetypes, and also a 7 cost card that can be evolved after you play it cheap.
All Card Flavor Text for Saviors of Uldum
I love Dark Pharaoh Tekahn's flavour text "He'll get that League of Explorers and their little murloc too!"
Khartut Defender's as well - "Gesundheit!".
And Desert Hare's - "After they're caught, they're dessert hares".

I love this card. Could possibly be abused by control vs aggro.
