The ability is pretty nice. Clear the board, and fill your board at the same time. The cost of the card and timing may be slightly awkward, but it's really good if it goes off. It triggers off of your own minions too, effectively replacing what you killed (which could even negate the downside of hitting your own stuff). Having a bunch of 3-Health minions to kill on turn 7 is definitely not impossible, but it won't happen every game.
I'm interested to see the direction Demon Hunter goes in this set though. They could definitely expand their horizon.
Creative ability. It's not too great if you have to play it, and then pop it, but it at least it's always an option you can use. Discarding it though is obviously quite nice.
It only looks weak because it looks boring for a Legendary, which I fully admit it is.
If I look at it as a 4 mana 4/2 Stealth with "Deathrattle: Deal 4 damage to a random enemy", it doesn't seem so bad. The 4/2 might even survive if it targets face.
It isn't the strongest card in the good, but it's just "good", and sometimes that's enough. So, maybe it might see play. If anything else, I'm excited to see some Stealth Rogue support.
I really admire the creativity of this card, and I haven't quite seen an effect like this anywhere before.
The effect is pretty neat, and has pretty cool utility for both classes. Perhaps both classes might get decent weapon buffs in this set? That would just make it all the better.
Under the right board states, this card can do quite a lot for 3 mana. That said, you won't typically get into state in every game. It's not a GREAT card, but in the right places, it's quite effective.
Well, the set is very explicitly school themed, so I can't really help you with that.
The reason Transfer Student counts is because it is a reference to a real-life school trope. In the real world, a transfer student is a student who is, well, transferring to another school to complete more credits.
People are saying that Warrior/Rogue might get a weapon, although personally, I think Paladin/Warrior is more likely and makes more sense.
The flavor design of Rogue and Warrior weapons are simply not compatible. Rogue tends to use daggers or very short swords, usually something easy to conceal. Warriors use more "open combat" weapons from swords, maces, axes, really just about anything. Hell, we have an achor and tentacles of all things. I don't see how the two can overlap flavorfully and still make sense.
For Paladin/Warrior though, that'll be no problem since Warrior and Paladin weapons tend to be very similar to each other in terms of their combat flavor.
It's not a "callback" to Serrated Tooth though. Not in the same sense that Serpentshrine Portal is a callback to the portal cards from One Night in Karazhan.
Ah. I didn't even notice that. Not my fault though because I didn't make the bingo card (just what the squares would be). :) - But I'll tell Flux about it.
We have a table below the bingo card associating which card crossed off a square, respective of position. The card in question that crossed off Breaking Class Weaknesses was Diligent Notetaker.

And we cross off a bingo square.
For both classes, the requirement can easily be fulfilled with your Hero Power.
Strong removal option for both classes. This will be good, no doubt about it.

Now this looks like a pretty cool card. Pair it with some AoE and you can swing the board quite a bit.
I was disappointed when I thought Amazing LP wasn't getting a card reveal.
And then this happens. Simply... legendary.
Mage/Shaman is absolutely getting some type of Elemental. It just seems way too perfect for them not to do that.

It means it makes a real world reference to real, existing school tropes.
Eh, that's actually a bit of a difficult one, but I'd say no.
Yep. It's Discover, so it doesn't count.
That space is resolved for minions that are in a vacuum, better versions of Silverback Patriarch.
Such examples include Stonehill Defender, Belligerent Gnome, Wyrmrest Agent, Phantom Militia, etc.

You saw nothing. NOTHING!!!
(jk, I fixed it. Thank you for pointing it out.)
Nope. Both Card draw AND card generation are supposed to be Shaman weaknesses.

Yeah.
