    I like the idea of this card and the art. I think as a dragon it will definitely see play in dragon synergized decks. 

    Chaos, Panic, and Disorder, My work here is done. 

    Welcome to the thunder-dome bitch!

    I love brightwing <3  I want him in all my decks now, but more specifically I'm thinking maybe a dragon paladin but its not really worked before so 1 new card might not push it to be viable. I'll definitely try something with him though

    One more tool for Dragon Paladin. Sadly, it still needs just a tad more support... but we are getting there...

    Love it!  It's not great but it's just the kind of card I'll try to force.

    "I'm angered and you won't like this" :P

    What's the most powerful card in Hearthstone?

    A credit card.

    Cheap neutral Dragon that doesn't rely on other Dragons to function.  Seems like it would fit nicely into Menagerie Decks!

    Oh yeah, these Forum Signatures are a thing.

    Cute, fun. Probably ends there. Random legendaries are no longer a good thing. Dragon tag is something, I guess.

    This dragon is three mana and that alone is reason enough to play it in dragon decks.

    Otherwise it's comparable to Madame Lazul, 3 mana 3/2 add a card to your hand. You're trading hand knowledge for the dragon tag, so I think Lazul is definitely stronger, but she is a class card unlike Brightwing so that's to be expected.

    I'm pretty sure this sees play on the fringes of standard but won't make it to high level competition unless a dragon deck that needs an early game card becomes high tier.

    Strong, but also fair at the same time. I could definitely see some mid-range dragon decks using this. If I could rate this, I would say, that this minion is a 3-star card and in some metas it could even reach 4 stars.

    [edit] Dunno how relevant the following information would be, but since the little fella has an odd-cost, it could fit in some odd control dragon warriors on theory. I don't think that it would be good enough to make the cut there, since odd warriors are better off running the quest, but I wanted to point this out.

    Slots so perfectly in a Dragon Shudderwock deck!

    I make bad custom Hearthstone cards sometimes.

    A three mana dragon was needed, and the battlecry is pretty random, but could be good.

    3/5 A bit too random to be reliable but legendaries are mostly good in some situations

    Pretty decent. Technicaly it can be viewed as infinite value, although that is way too unreliable.

    Rating cards on coolness factor rather than predicting power because I like screwing up rating averages (and because I suck at predicting real power levels, but we'll ignore that LUL)

    I knew this day would come. Heroes of the Storm has led me to despise Brightwing as a character, meaning I'll have to decide if that hatred gets in the way of my interest in Dragon cards/decks here in Hearthstone.

    If you have the time, you should totally check out our weekly Hearthstone card design competitions! :D

    Seems like a pretty good card. It's basically like a neutral dragon version of Messenger Raven, except the battlecry is a little worse and the dragon tag is better than the beast tag. Nothing super crazy or overpowered, but I like it.

    I am happy to see Brightwing finally make it to Hearthstone. Definitely random but also a dragon. I feel like we will see this around a lot.

    Solid card that will definitely see play in some decks. Balanced stats, a battlecry that provides value, and a dragon tag to help with dragon synergies to boot. Cards like this are healthy for the game.

    (At first glance I thought it was a murloc, lol)
