    It reminds me of Gral, the Shark a bit since in theory, it has good stats and ability, but it won't see any play.

    Crazy, but in a good way. This might be the card that makes Galapriest playable if there's a good combo to do, and there probably will be.

    You see, the difference between this and Curious Glimmerroot, Madame Lazul and Chameleos is that those guys always (or almost always, if we're talking about Glimmerroot) give you a card, not just info on your opponent. This 3 out of 4 times doesn't. I really don't understand why it can't look at a card from hand and any 2 random cards, like Curious Glimmerroot, since that would be a completely fair powercreep and it's not like they haven't powercreeped any cards this expansion.

    It looks interesting, but that's it. There's some mindgames included if you play it on an empty board to mess with your opponent's head (should I play my minions or not?), but at that point it falls into the meme category. Depends on the meta most likely.

    I don't know, seems weak. Assassinate stopped being good a long time ago, but it still sees play if necessary. I just think Priest already has enough removal for this to work. Galapriest will probably have to run at least one, since Devoted Maniac is most likely horrible there.

    Wild is gonna love this. Mage and Warlock are there, but Priest sort of died out. This could bring back Dragon Razakus.

    Also, Odd Priest ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

    Will see play, either in combo, control or resurrect decks. It actually looks really interesting to me. There's lots of different ways to use it. Do you play it on any big minion you have or save it for something special? Play it now or on a turn 10 Khartut from hand? It won't be super fun playing against, but Silence should keep it under control.

    Definitely great, auto include in Galakrond Priest. Now, will Galapriest see play is a totally different question.

    He's great for combos, but also for value. Playing it on any big minion can be a big deal and we have yet to see how it'll work with the DoD stuff. My guess is it will see play possibly all the way until it rotates.

    Definitely an auto include in highlanders, literally why not?
    Wild highlanders will get even crazier, I know I won't like it when they play this 5 times in one game.

    Feels weak, but it looks awesome. I get why people want it to work. Sadly, a board of 1/1s isn't as good as it once was.

    Zephrys's E.V.I.L. brother from another mother. Could be the card that makes Galakrond as a concept too powerful.

    Mini Luna's, but for dragon decks. I don't know, we'll need to see it in action to be sure. It will most likely at some point be super broken, but maybe something else will beat it quickly. Definitely not bad, that's for sure.

    Obviously something that will be built upon in the following expansions. I hope. Currently, this is weak, but maybe with a couple of Amalgams and something else it could work? Or don't even put this in a Murloc deck and instead put it in a midrange dragon one?

    I'm not sad about Kingsbane. I'm sad about Spectral Cutlass :(

    Could see play if weapons get out of hand, but usually oozes are much better when there's nothing to counter.

    This would be great as an effect of a 1 or 2-cost spell. As is, too unreliable to work, sadly.

    Looking at Mechano-Egg, this seems underwhelming. There's not enough Deathrattle support for this right now. The only thing that sort of saves it is the secretly part, because if you get a 12/12, your opponent will have no idea. Simple fool.

    3 Mana 3/4 Beast. That's it.

    Sure, you can Dire Frenzy, but why not use that on something bigger instead of a 3 Mana 3/4?

    Not worth it imo. At least the cost stays "forever" and doesn't vanish on its own.

    These epics are horrible. Mogu Cultist was fun, Desert Obelisk... Inspired people, but these are just half useless techs half bad memes.
