    Very cool artwork, especially on the signature version. I'm still not a fan as it requires some specific hoops to jump through to be worth running it that I don't like. Playing Shaman being the first of them lol.

    Pretty soild in a lot of decks and since Hunter usually has a problem with draw, this could actually turn out very good. I like it!

    Maybe I can't see beyond my regular Shudderwock trauma but I already hate it. Even if it isn't bonkers off the bat, chances are high Shaman will get an insane Battlecry during the next 2 years that somehow works despite the damage restriction. Also note that it doesn't say "this turn" so there's no Mana cap on a combo with another card.

    Arguably a better Sigil of Reckoning since you're able to target it. Will be interesting to see if we can build a Big Warrior around cards like this in Wild.

    Amazing idea, I love it! There's a ton of different ways to go with this and all of them look interesting. Everybody will run this.

    Very interesting card, I like it a lot. If Mechrattle Warrior ever becomes a thing, this will be a centerpiece of the deck. As things are, there's not enough support for it unfortunately.

    As Slagmaw has taught us, stats don't really matter. The effect while dormant would have been okay earlier in the game, but at its current cost and without a reliable way to cheat it out, this card is useless :(

    Super amazing card that is the equivalent of Prismatic Beam for Warlock. This makes want to try Even Handlock in Wild again :)

    Absolutely not my kind of card but I get that there are people who enjoy this kind of stuff. Just please don't turn up in my packs okay?

    I'll pick up Suchti's comment and speculate this might see play in Wild where there are better targets. I really have to try and build a Big Mech Warrior deck.

    Very very strong card and a key element in Spell Druid if that deck comes together. One of the Standard decks I'm the most looking forward to :)

    The wind-up mechanism looks cool from a flavor point of view, but I'm not sure if it holds up in the actual game. At the very least, this will be used for some very funny meme combos.

    While I do have a deck that could use that kind of tutor, the card just has the wrong effect. Obviously Battlecry would have been amazing, but realistically speaking, I'd expect this to receive the Ra-den treatment: dead card for a long time, then gets a buff in the form of Taunt and sees occasional play in niche decks.

    Beautiful artwork but I don't see this being played much to be honest. Definitely not in Wild at least.

    Complete trash card. Not only do you have to live with the randomness, the effect also just fizzles on your next turn. It might deliver the odd highroll or save you a game from time to time, but I'd never hard run this in any deck.

    My favorite card of the whole set. This card is the nuts in aggro swarm decks or just as a strong turn 1 play. I'll give it a try in Wild Aggro Druid and Draggro Priest (you heard it from me first :P).

    All the Origami cards are awesome and this is no exception. The Dragon tag also helps it finding a home. If it had Rush instead of Divine Shield it would be super busted, but it's a solid option as is.

    Very hard to rate honestly. At the very least it provides a lot of corpses for DK and it's a premium target for buffs and Auras in Paladin. I wouldn't write this off too easily.

    Funny meme card, but you probably won't see it in a competitive deck. Hunter can do cool stuff with Dire Frenzy and various other buffs and tutors for example. Cute art!
