freeze is only a mage mechanic most of the time, now I can see shaman running the new freeze card to invoke galakrond.. but you would tech this against mage...
And still.. I don't know why it doesn't have a battlecry to unfreeze frozen minions at least it could be useful but even agaisnt mage it's not that great..
it could have a small niche, but with the current text it has none.. well not all cards can be mighty powerful.
anti synergistic with kangor's army.. which is good since then it could spawn a new deck, there are sure a lot of directions for paladin this expansion, expct at least one to spawn a new deck.
I don't get what the art + card name + flavor text have to do with it's effect.. a few dragons are attacking a hot air balloon.. why are your minions suddenly stronger cause of that?
I would comment about the card's strengths and how it's stolen identity from druid, and definitely shaman which is a very token heavy class should not get access to such cards but that's already been said.
curves into Earthen Might and so does the freeze/invoke galakrond card, shaman might finally be able to consistantly play earthen might on curve while getting value constantly.
Well this is 2 invokes in one, I guess shaman is probably the fastest to buff galakrond thanks to this effect.
did we ever saw a similar card to a card that summons 2 2/1 rush minions? the 3/3 body is worth 2 mana so invoking twice should be worth 3 mana.. 2 2/1 rushes.. seem to be just right on the mana cost.
Reminds me of Flamewreathed Faceless AKA 4 mana 7/7 overload 2. but this one has +2 spell damage instead of 2 attack I can't think of any card that actually benefits from spell power.. but there might be next year...
Need to hold 2 dragons for this to be better than yeti.. and better than yeti is not much seems like a decent arena card if you picked a lot of dragons.. and I forsee an arena rotation with a lot of dragons
Dragon druid? most dragons are midrangy, and you could run mostly spells early game in druid so big dragon druid could use such card, just that recruiting a random card.. make it quite restrictive to run this card you probably don't want choose one or situational minions.. and then you have to spend 10 mana on minions..
[Hearthstone Card (SI: agent) Not Found] is a good card.. not too much to say about this card, solid.. maybe battlecry dragon shaman? a lot of dragons are battlecries and this is easier to do than have a lackey in play.. it's another direction for sure.. (like BC shaman didn't had enough builds)
reminds me of Siamat's best mode + has evasive (....... MAKE IT A KEYWORD...) which makes it harder to remove, I think this card is probably in the top 10 dragosn you would include in your dragon deck.
wonder if azure drake would see play as of today's meta in standard..
This expansion is a huge power creep btw.. [Hearthstone Card (bonefire elemental) Not Found] had a condition for this effect this.. has none.. it's just a card you just throw in your deck if you want to cycle faster..(probably post rotation, on this stage of the game the decks have a lot of synergy to have random cards).
cheap "self damage" activator + aoe a third of a Hellfire, easy to scale with spell damage compared to other cards warlock has, this and Nether Breath might be enough for dragon control warlock to consider running Bloodmage Thalnos.
not sure about this card, itn't not a mech by itself and Rabid Worgen is just not good anymore, how good is a 4/4 with rush for 3? maybe mecha paladin will like it since it's a high tempo card.
The quotes aren't connected, the top part has nothing to do with your comment, I just said that there will be another dragon for warlock (back then unknown, but now we know it's a 8 mana 4/12) that might be another factor in you wanting to play dragon warlock.
If you noticed at that point as well every class got a dragon legendary minion and a none dragon legendary card.
meta dependent, if the removal is minion/weapon based mainly then this is quite pointless but if it's spell based (mage mostly) then this is quite potent, not sure about this one but it's worth considering.
This card isn't even that good in arena, but I agree that's the only place you will see it.
Pack filler..

to snowball Brazen Zealot paladins summon a lot of minions so they do flood the board, and getting more hp on said snowbally 1 drops is very strong..
also the current meta is going away, you should look at pre ToT meta, 1 hp paladin/aggro paladin was a niche deck that saw some success

also similar to Tunnel Troggbut not as snowbally.

those are a lot of tokens for combos.. but other than that.. what do rogue uses on board pirates for?

People here mentioned Embiggen ye, maybe that..

Whirlwind + invoke galakrond, it's a controlish effect though.. it costs a bit much for what it does but the bundling might make it worth... maybe
Tinkertown Technician but now with rush instead of a random spare part.

Too random, benefits your opponent too, Wrathion was similar and also wasn't even close to being good, this card is just bad.
