The problem with this going into a control deck however lies in the Outcast. Control decks typically have a large hand size, so getting the effect activated in a Control deck is more difficult, and would risk being a dead card in hand in too many situations. So, unless DH can figure out how to run a control list that also has small average hand sizes and massive draw, this won't be used in Control lists.

Oh my god this is going to be so fucking annoying! Why did they print this???
With the amount of card draw DH has, giving them the ability to put their opponent's cards back into their deck is just fucking insane. This card alone can win you a game by ruining your opponent's game plan.

Really useful for both classes. Hunter especially since it relies so much on Tempo and board control due to limited access to board clears. This will help you swing the tempo back in your favor, or just further increase your lead. Really hoping a good Midrange Beast Hunter list comes back, this could really help with that.

Looks too expensive at first, and then you remember how many cheap spells mage has, and Sorcerer's Apprentice still existing, and then you question what the fuck Team 5 is smoking.

I am finally a proud owner of Derp-face Rexxar. I did it right too, and got my last 5 wins playing as Face Hunter.
Ironically enough, 4 of my last 5 wins were against Highlander Hunter (Face eats them for breakfast), so I was preying on my own to get my last wins.
Shout out to the guy I played for win 1000. He was a Highlander Hunter and played a great game. I got scared for a few turns that he was going to pull a win off. I was able to secure the victory with a well executed play, perfectly playing around his secret to get lethal. My opponent gave a nice pleasant "Well Played" as the match ended. It was really nice to face a true competitor with proper sportsmanship to end this long grind.
To my opponent: I know what you did was just a simple gesture, that you probably didn't even think twice about doing, but that simple "Well Played" really meant a lot to me. I have not been enjoying Hearthstone AT ALL for the past few months. I am going through some personal mental health issues, and I have been finding that Hearthstone hasn't been bringing any joy in my life. I can't tell if it's my mental health, or Hearthstone that are the issue. I have been questioning if I should continue playing, and have been debating uninstalling the game. I continued playing as I was so close to 1000 wins with Hunter, and since it is my main class, the completitionist in me needed to get that portrait. I feared that upon receiving the portrait, I would be left feeling unsatisfied, and unaccomplished. I feared that I would stop playing Hearthstone all together once achieving my goal.
Your simple "Well Played" really helped me find a reason to celebrate my accomplishment, and decide to not give up on playing Hearthstone. Had you chosen to "threaten" me, then add me on bnet to say mean things about my Mom, I probably would have uninstalled Hearthstone right then and there. For now, I will continue playing Hearthstone. I was able to find joy in it still, so the main issue is with my mental health.
That being said...
There are some major concerns and questions going into SA that are keeping me from preordering so far. These concerns are not being alleviated by the reveals. The bi-class cards (while a really cool idea) are looking way too powerful imo. With what I have seen so far, I am seeing a repeat of both DoD and AoO on the horizon, where there are cards released that are just obviously way too strong.
Honestly, the main thing keeping me playing right now is knowing a new game mode will be released this expansion cycle. That new mode is going to be vital to the long-term desire for me to continue playing.
TL;DR: DERP FACE REXXAR! You never know what someone is going through, and how your actions can effect them. Scholomance is looking like a huge power spike, but all that matters is what the new game mode is going to be.
Already DE my golden Kayn and recrafted him regular. He was pretty, but the free dust just cannot be passed.
Coincidence? I think not.

Shoe eating aside...
I have asked this a few times during this reveal season so far...
What the fuck is Team 5 smoking?
This is an auto include in any control deck from here on out.
This is honestly an auto include in almost any deck that isn't aggro.
Hearthstone is going to turn into a game of who drew Lorekeeper Polkelt first so they can draw their win condition first.
This is absolutely terrible for the health of this game, and Team 5 really is showing they don't know what the fuck they are doing.
This card has reignited my inner debate about quitting this game.
Nom nom nom nom!
EAT THE SHOE! EAT THE SHOE!

Super solid strong card, like most of the bi-class cards.
Aww! He's all fleshy!
It's solid if it sticks, but honestly it might be too slow.
As things currently stand, I don't see this card getting any play.

Wait, it's name is actually "Fluffy"? I thought that was just a place holder! We finally have a real Fluffy card!
Instant craft for sure
This is actually really neat and might help continue to push totem Shaman into more than a meme. It's already on the cusp, this card just might do it.
Cool effect flavor wise, yes I get it Blizz. But... come on...
Solid, more annoying than anything. God I hate Priest...
