Even though all the shaman cards haven’t been revealed yet, I can tell that shaman finally won’t be a meme class (still going to play meme shaman deck though).
Very flexible. I'm probably going to try to find some good Deathrattles to pair it with, but as mentioned above, it could also be used to minimize the penalty of good Battlecry minions with bad statlines.
I was thinking about this card's uses on your opponent's minions, and honestly... one of the best uses is in Wild as tech against Big Priest. Say turn 4 your opponent plays Barnes. You can either use this on Barnes to put more 4 drops in the pool, or you can polymorph something, then the Sheep is still around, hit it with this spell, maybe again to another 1 drop generated.
If you're surviving to late in the game the Polymorph -> 2 x Conjurer's Calling could cause them some major headaches with their spellstones and other rez effects. Imagine your opponent using a fully charged spellstone to bring back Sheep, Abusive Sergeant, Babbling Book, and Chameleos
Yes, I realize this is extremely situational. But that thought of it being possible makes me so happy!
EDIT: And if Khadgar generates them double the 1 drops, that's even better! The fact that Khadgar exists and they are pushing this minion generating archetype means it's possible that you could have a deck with that gimmick in it, but utilize these as removal/tech in a Big Priest match up. Bottom line is I'm excited to see what the game looks like after April 9th!
How is this not the most powerful card ever printed ... am I reading this wrong... do the minions get summoned for your opponent
Good question. The usage of the word "replace" tells me it's on the side of the minion being destroyed. Since you can use it on your own minions, it has some interesting Khadgar synergy.
This is another one that works with Khadgar. You'd never want to use this on an enemy minion, but it could do amazing things on your own side of the board with a Khadgar combo. Maybe play a powerful battlecry minion with a weak statline, kill it on the next turn with this plus Khadgar for four replacements. And if the replacements are bad, you can do it again.
Fascinating form of removal. Its great against magnetic cards and OTK buff priest, but is terrible against token/zoo and deathrattle. I like the creativity but don't know if it'll will actually make it in a deck, unless...
If summon mage becomes a thing, this w/ Kadgar could be amazing
Which means this is a pretty short list, with mostly good options. I think this will be a very good card in any Zul'jin deck.
5/11 chance to highroll a 5/5, 3/5, 3/4, 2/3 poisonous, or 3/4 with an upside
Only a 2/11 chance to lowroll a 1/4 taunt or a 2/1.
2/11 chance for a vanilla 3/3.
1/11 chance for a 3/3 taunt.
1/11 chance for a 4/2 stealth.
So, 82% of the time it will be a good or OK result (for basically free). And if you're hunter, it's a free beast 100% of the time for the beast synergies.
Spell hunter no longer cares at all about minions in the deck, as the payoff for the new spell hunter will be Zul'jin only. In case you missed the memo, Rhok'delar and To My Side! both rotate.

New Neutral Minion - Barista Lynchen
So much value to be had
New Neutral Minion - Archivist Elysiana
Wow this looks like a crazy card. Amazing for fatigue.

New Rare Mage Spell - Conjurer's Calling
This will have some fun results. Could be used as removal for enemies in theory but only if absolutely necessary.
New Mage Spell - Conjurer's Calling
This is a really cool card. The minions are somewhat RNG but it can be played strategically.
New Neutral Minion - Exotic Mountseller
This reminds me a lot of Violet Teacher.
New Rare Mage Spell - Conjurer's Calling
If you destroy an oppononet's minion they get summoned for your opponent. If you destroy your own minion you get them.

Plenty of fun ways to use this, love how they've played around with Mage's design since year of the raven.
Rise of Shadows
Got 8000 gold saved up... I think I'll just spend money on the adventure and gold on packs/arena
New Rare Mage Spell - Conjurer's Calling
Kill your own deathrattle minion and replace it with two of equal cost. It definitely has potential.

It is looking more and more like Khadgar is the go-to RoS Legendary for fun shenanigans.

I'm dying to play thief priest and combo a stolen
with an
. Just for the lulz.
Rise of Shadows
Going to be a great expansion, excited to see how the meta is with so little cards in the expansion
Rise of Shadows
might one of the best expansions!
Conjurer's Calling
Will be easy to find underpowered big drops, weakened minions or (maybe) strong deathrattles to effectively duplicate and restore. Nuts with Khadgar.
