    A Weasel Tunneler with good aggresive stats that has the ability to ruin some of your opponents futur draws. It's a nice aggro minion and can also be used with some deathrattle synergy. This card can even deny some highlander decks as a bonus.

    Fear the Albatross!

    More dragons? Yes please!

    Like the concept, a very interesting effect for a common card.

    It's fine. Not much more to say, really: it has okay stats for its cost and the effect can really ruin someone's day. However, the card is kind if boring and often wont make much of a difference. So...yeah. It's fine.

    Wouldn't call this boring, since you can actually copy it and ruin your opponent's whole deck by filling it with 1/1s 

    You can meme with it so I find this card actually good.

    This, Hakkar and Undetakah are going to be fun to shut down Highlander decks.

    This is a great card. If Highlander decks take off this will be very popular.

    On the arena is very good, because you want your opponent to draw two uselles cards. I can;t see any archetype on ranked which this card suits

    I remember the Weasel deck being kind of fun, so this will probably help out a lot for that. Beyond that though, I don’t expect it to see much play

    Who needs consistency when you could have fun?

    This is not as bad as it looks being well stated and all. Decent Highlander counter and just giving your opponent a dead draw is pretty good sometimes.

    I think this card is insane.
    You're already playing a well-statted aggressive minion, but shuffling 1/1's into your opponent's deck just makes the card that much better by diluting their deck. This is very good against decks like Reno decks, too.
    Add on the Beast and Deathrattle synergies and you have one hell of a card.

    It looks surprisingly good! The deathrattle allows you to disrupt the opponent's topdecks which is very nice. And 4-3 stats for 3 mana is more then we could expect from a card with such a useful deathrattle effect. It can delay the opponent's fatigue for 2 turns but i guess it's not a card for decks which plan to play to fatigue so it's not a big deal. I believe we'll see it on ladder. I already imagene how annoying it will be to draw that shitty 1-1 albatross...

    Awesome highlander tech. Most likely played in Druid or Hunter decks I guess.

    Is always nice to have tech cards.

    The problem is that we don't have a sideboard in this game, so running this just to win on a small percentage (sometime you'll not draw this in the matchups where you want it; or you still lose even after you played it) of a small percentage of games (you play this card only because is good versus highlander decks) isn't worth it in my opinion.

    In turnament settings card like this are good to exist.

    Good card against Highlander decks, and stats are not bad in other match-ups. Worst case scenario it gives your opponent a potential bad draw. Nothing to build your deck around, but a nice tech card.

    Being good against 1 type of deck doesn't make it a good card if you are losing to all other decks. I can only see this played if it has synergy with your deck, and no other class pulls that better than hunter with its beast synergy. With aggressive stats and a disruptive effect vs early zephyrs, I might see it being played should highlander decks become to much prevalent. but another solution is always bomb warrior, so this card won't be the tool to keep highlander in check.

    I really like this! It's not too awkward to play on curve and it messes up your opponents deck. No matter the strategy, you NEVER want to draw a 1/1 after mulligan. Probably even better in arena where you depend more on good topdecking. That being said, with the abundance of over-powered cards this will see less play than deserved.

    The name of the card is perfect, is so luck based that it might work from time to time, so much highlight potential and might make the cut in some Rogue decks.
