    Honestly, not a great card. It makes you play specific tech cards, and in return you get a pile of stats that your opponent can quite often ignore.

    Very annoying card to play against if you're a minion-based tempo deck. I can see this putting in work against some early game strategies like Hunter. Its stats also prevent it from being removed easily by spells. Clearly the better Watch Post.

    Very annoying to deal with, the relatively high attack makes it so your opponent will have to sacrifice quite a bit to trade into it. However, the fact that it can't attack makes it so your opponent can just ignore it. Don't see this being played over Ogremancer, and I don't see any deck needing more anti-spell cards.

    More priest removal! This actually makes me want to play Desperate Prayer, which makes Priest of An'she a better card as well.

    This should be able to buff itself right? Curving Warsong Envoy into something else into this might be a good early tempo curve, but 2 attack on 3 mana trades kind of poorly.

    Maybe in some wacky wild OTK combo with cheap chargers? In standard it might end up in some face paladin list, but that doesn't have any other support.

    Greatly depends on the best Frenzy cards that warrior ends up getting, but never underestimate a board-in-a-card card.

    Only actually good with Animated Broomstick or a damage effect like Guardian Augmerchant while you have a wide board. But sadly for this card, there are plenty of other cards that are good with those cards but also good by themselves and without a wide board. So this card won't be worth it.

    So, apparently Razorfen Beastmaster wasn't actually a Hunter card? This is a crazy card, 4 mana 4/4 draw 2 cards is busted. It really depends on the actual Deathrattle minions DH will get though, synergy cards are worthless if they have nothing to synergise with.

    Mana cheat is pretty much always good. It's good when it discounts 1 minion, then it's protected, and if it sticks for one turn it gets insane value. Play this on two with a taunt, play Greybough on 3, play Plaguemaw the Rotting on turn 4, gg.

    This is gonna be extremely annoying to deal with, also we're definitely gonna see this dude in Battlegrounds.

    Potentially very good with Gibberling, we already know that Innervate is a nature spell. Depends greatly on which other Nature spells we get and which old spells become Nature spells (Adorable Infestation)?

    I don't really see a place for it anywhere, usually it gets outclassed by Kayn Sunfury.

    Honestly, not a very good card in standard. 1 attack is not impactful enough, and saving a few damage points isn't worth it since you're usually attacking quite small stuff or your opponent's face anyway. Might see play in Wild Kingsbane Rogue tho.

    Great in Control Mage since Frost Nova is leaving and they need a replacement, great in Tempo Mage with cards like Flurry (Rank 1) and Glacier Racer. Lots of potential.

    Not too good in Standard because pretty much all good Murloc Shaman cards are leaving, but absolutely bonkers in wild. Combine this with Toxfin and you have a 3 mana kill all enemy minions combo, and you can tutor the entire combo with Ice Fishing.

    Pretty decent 1-drop, like a better Warbot. Warrior is gonna lose a lot of tools the coming rotation, but if some kind of Tempo warrior survives this can be a neat 1-drop for it.

    Actually quite decent. Warlock can always use good healing, and they go through their deck quite quickly. Shame the quest rotates though.

    It's a Vulpera Scoundrel with a slightly worse effect, but a very good keyword in return. Vulpera Scoundrel saw quite a bit of play so this will too.

    Actually bonkers. Already good enough when it pulls 1 minion, and it allows for a rush chain giving you crazy value and deck thinning.
