Maybe control Warrior likes this, but the stats are basically useless for control Warrior.

I don't think this will actually see much play just because the effect is not good enough for 2/2 weapon stats.

Seems like it has the potential to be very annoying.

I'm excited for divine shield support, but I don't know that the divine shield archetype will ever be a "real" archetype in Paladin, even with more cards like this.

Seems really strong, but I don't know if will actually see much play just because turn 1 is rarely critically important such that you have to hit a solid 1-drop, especially if they are randomly generated.

Maybe even Paladin falls in love with this card?

Another really cool idea from this expansion!

Thanks, I hate it...

This effect is really cool and allows for really high skill plays, but I don't think anyone is going to like playing against this card.

I want Thief Priest to be a supported archetype, but I'm not sure this is what I meant...

I initially thought this was going to be the worst card of the set--until the final drop.

Since the addition of Twilight Runner, Teacher's Pet, and Lake Thresher, this card has a lot more potential!

I like that this card allows for skillful plays to gain control of enemy minions, but I don't like the steal your opponent's minions effect (hence why Mind Control Tech was HoF).

I have a love/hate relationship with Priest's steal effects; I love performing them, but loathe playing against them.

I suspect this will see play, but I think the meta will ultimately determine whether or not the card is strong.

In another class, this is probably an auto-include in most lists because of the stats and dangerous effect. However, in Mage, I'm not sure they want to be running a minion with an effect that can be covered by one of their strong spells.

Perhaps I'm wrong, but I don't think this will make it past the experimentation phase of the expansion.

Anytime Priest gets a 2 mana "give a minion +2/+2," the meta gets overwhelmed. This will likely be no different.

This is also more annoying than most buff cards because it will allow taunt/deathrattle Priest to make trades and restock the health after going down to 1 health.

I expect this to see a lot of play and help push the aggro/buff/tempo Priest archetype.

Really creative idea for a card.

I suspect this will function a lot like Siamat, but it will be available at various points in the game with various strengths.

I suspect we will see this in most Shaman lists from aggro to control.

5/5 Absurdly ridiculous. I don't like that they printed this, and I hope it gets nerfed.

This card will be a nightmare to deal with for every class, and I don't see how this doesn't overwhelm the meta.

I initially thought this was pretty average, but I've sat on this for a little and think this is pretty strong.

Anytime I see pros put cards in refined archetypes for wild (Odd Rogue), it makes me re-evaluate my thoughts.

This is more versatile than Captain Greenskin, so I see why it will likely take his spot.

I really like the idea, but not sure if it is strong enough to run in anything other than aggro stealth Rogue.

I like the stealth support for Rogue, and I hope this helps make the archetype competitive.

Absolutely busted.

Day 1 nerf?

I don't see any world or deck where this isn't an auto-include.

Really cool new idea, but I think it's going to be too slow/inconsistent.

Maybe aggro decks run it, but it just doesn't seem like it will be consistent enough in Warrior or strong enough payoff for Rogue.

Seems very strong to me!

Maybe we'll all be shocked by how slow it ends up being, but single target minion removal via battlecry is generally strong.

I don't think this is going to see play at all based on the fact that Holy Water never saw play.

I also don't know how often you will be able to get this off on a minion that's really valuable to summon a fresh copy of...

Feels like one of the weaker cars in the expansion to me.

I'm excited to experiment with this card, but it's not clear how good this will be yet.

It would actually be super cool if some stats site had info about how often health total changes by turn X to make this minion's cost also X, but I doubt those numbers are worth pulling before the expansion for a single card.

Nevertheless, we will find out if this is ridiculously strong or meh shortly.

5/5 card that is going to dominate the meta unless it gets nerfed.

The amount of token cards that exist with upsides via deathrattle or a battlecry is so abundant that this will definitely see play.

In Warlock, it's another "Tekahn condition" for Lackeys (with no downside after Tekahn activates), so I am looking forward to pushing Lackey Warlock further.

Tempo/Aggro Priest is likely enabled by this card alone.

This card seems very strong for both classes. Not sure if it is an auto-include in Highlander, but mid-range and tempo seem like the best fit for it.

Mid-range Hunter can now take value trades and possibly bring the archetype back alive.

Demon Hunter plus weapons are even more threatening than before. Thank goodness we got nerfs to most of the weapons that were available to DH.

I like the support for Heal Shaman, but this might be just out of the range of playable even though the effect is ridiculously strong.

8 mana for 3 damage is a steep price, but maybe the Lifesteal makes up for it. We'll have to wait and see, but I'm not sure this is going to cut it, especially since Walking Fountain exists.
