    Slow. But potentially very poweful effect and combo potential. Nice flavor and art also, opposed to all those big-ass overpowered dragons of this set.

    Deathrattle instead of battlecry makes the card much slower. Still very scary for wide decks.

    Should be a shaman card. :( Potentially really ood in dragon decks, obviously.

    So there it is. The card I was waiting for way back, but realised how stupid it was when High Priest Thekal was printed. At least it’s a counter to endless warrior or druid armor. 

    The power level of this expansion is too damn high!!

    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.

    Value and damage in one card is always good, probably an auto-include in dragon mage decks. I'm not so sure about cyclone decks though, that depends if they will have ano room for dragons.

    Meme card. Yes it has some anti-aggro potential but too highroll-y. You need a lot of luck for this to work.

    Cool card, I like it! A cheaper (and worse) Doomsayer in the early game. Potential as anti-aggro tech but I doubt we'll see much of it.

    Looks like fun! A nice addition to shuffle/espionage/spider decks although not #supernessecary. 
    If i open Waxadred I will remember this for the deck.

    Really, really good. Crazy value when played on curve if you have enough dragons in your deck.

    This is a really good card for dragon/highlander/big spell mage. Or a combination of those. Free Flamestrike or Pyroblast with a 4/4 body on turn 6 is just insane.

    Probably very inconsistent, at the same time you can highroll really nice. A lot of legendaries have <vanilla stats but good effects so you will hope to get one of them. Won't se constructed play except for memes.

    That is a lot of stats. A little slow but the eggs will work as soft taunts if nothing else. Better in Arena where board clears are more uncommon?

    Cool card, and Mage will have much easier to trigger the effect than priest with Dragon Soul. I won't draft it, but if I open it I will put this right into my cyclone deck.

    I really like the art for Warlock dragons! 

    This card is strong but I don't think it's OP. You probably wait to drop it until you can combo it with hero power (no, Galakrond, the Wretched, not yours) or some self-damaging card as it doesn't affect the board. But if it sticks, your opponent will have a really hard time...

    Just crazy. This could find a spot in most Shaman decks with some overload cards.

    I'm getting worried this expansion will be too overpowered and everyone will hate it during the next cycle, like K&C but even worse. But at least all those OP cards looks FUN!

    Good stats but the effect will be hard to pull off. Maybe priest or rouge will find a way to spam the board with these.

    Potentially CRAZY! With all those new dragons we will see a lot of variation from RNG and discover, but many of them are really strong. The Highlander concept gets a great support card and will live to see another expansion as well, wich probably os good for diversity.

    Rush hunter gets some love, this goes great with one of the sidequests. Removal AND draw is always a great combination.

    Nice Hail Mary in Arena, won't see play in constructed except for meme decks. Worse than Arch-Thief Rafaam whom could save you late-game when playing zoo.
