    Very good stats for a price overall! It's a very slow card for a token/treant druid but we could possibly see treant druid evolving to a more late game oriented deck than it was before. The most usable treant summoning spell was The Forest's Aid and it stays with us after the new year rotation so there is a possibility to build some kind of treant druid. But we still need some support for treants to make them viable for building such deck. We need to have a strong early game for transition to mid/late game and those buffed treants. Otherwise quest druid can remain the strongest druid archetype.

    I hope Goru the Mightree will not become a part of a nonexistent archetype as it happens sometimes.

    A very strong card potentially! We need to think out the way to use it but it's an interesting option. Not sure if some token druids will exist in a new meta because quest druid might be just stronger. But i'm sure we'll see this card on ladder sooner or later.

    One more epic filler? It looks fun at least! This card is so ridiculous that i want to try it out on ladder) I think it's too strange to use it as a bomb and corrupted blood removal but who knows. It might work)

    This card is insane! For a wild druid, it might even get them back their Jades, after the 1cost spells were burned from the deck....

    Yeah it might but there are too many druid spells (17) in Wild to make this card worth to include IMO. The chance to get what you need isn't that high even though 2 of those spells have a discover effect.

    A very fun card. It would be pretty nice to get a quest card from it sometimes! There are a lot of good 1 mana spells from different classes, but this card is too slow and situational to be included in any deck IMO. But i'd would be glad to see it played on ladder. I'll try it out for sure.

    A very cute dragon! I love the art! Looks very strong and solid for pally. Lifesteal, dragon discovering and 2-3 stats for 3 mana is already good and we know there are tools to buff it. And a strong arena pick again. I'm sure Bronze Explorer will fit in dragon pally deck.

    Good for 3 mana but i don't know if it's gonna be played much. I'm not sure if warrior that plays lackeys needs armor and i'm not sure if some kind of control warrior needs lackeys. The card seems a bit strange to me but it's not bad. A very nice 3 drop for arena though.

    I love control warrior and i'm a bit scared of this card existence. I'm sure there should be a way to deal with armor, but destroying all the armor for 5 mana and only with 1 card is too much IMO. It's a very situational tech card which will not see much play definitely but it can define some matchups and just ruin them for warriors or druids. But it's good to have an option, this is a very niche card which are always powerful. Anyway i don't think we'll see a warrior defined meta any time soon so it's OK.

    It's basically a steal card; select an enemy minion, kill it, this minion dies and now the enemy minion is in your battlefield. The wording says copy so I'm wondering if it also copies buffs.

     

    I believe "a new copy" means summoning a new full health minion with no buffs

    Chronobreaker is one of the cards which power level is hard to predict before the expansion launch. Potentially it's storng but might be too slow since an opponent can ignore it. So there should be a way to activate it's deathrattle or give it a taunt. Right now i think priest has more interesting options to clear the board but we might need this card after the new year rotation.

    Potentially it's a strong weapon, but this card seems strange to me. I believe hunter doesnt have enough dragons to build a deck right now. And i don't like the card idea especially because it's bad thematically IMHO - it's a hummer which is a very unusual weapon for hunter. I was sure it's a shaman weapon or a paladin one at least until i red the description. It even looks exactly like shaman hummers. And what is the relation between this hummer and dragons? Why does this hummer has a dragon synergy?

    Maybe i go too far but it's how i feel about Stormhammer.

    I was a bit confused of the card description at first because "summon a copy" usually summons a creature on the same side of the board as the original one. So the card lets to choose an enemy minion and resummons it with no buffs for the Mindflayer Kaahrj's owner with it's deathrattle, right?

    If Mindflayer Kaahrj work this way it's a very strong card even with no any effects it's a 3-3 for 3 mana which is decent. It may be good against aggro because it lets you trade an enemy's board and have a sticky minion. Or it may be a high value card in late game cuz not every single deck plays silence. I hope we'll see Mindflayer Kaahrj on ladder, the card seems interesting and promising.

    In theory this might work in a deck with lots of heavy minions. But i believe it's not worth to play) Just a fun epic expansion filler. And i'd prefer another ways to destroy an opponent's combo - Hecklebot and Dirty Rat if we talk about Wild.

    This card should be played before an opponet sets up his board or it should be protected by taunt for a turn. In theory this might ses play if there will be a lot of aggro. It's could be better than Doomsayer at some point because it can hold the board for multiple turns instead of just 1 if it's buffed somehow. I like we got this kind of tech card.

    I'd say it's one of the strongest cards of the expansion right now! It has great stats and an insane battlecry for any dragon deck and it's gonna synergize very well with warrior's Galakrond. A strong argument for dragons to be one of the dominant powers in a new meta.

    This Galakrond pushes us to some zoo/demon direction. It's hero power might even make Siegebreaker playable.  So let's see. It's hard to predict the real power before release.

    A must include card for any Galakrond deck. Good stats and insane battlecry make this card a nice 4 drop for a midrange Galakrond or even GalaZoo.

    I don't like this card personally but it's playable since we need to invoke.

    I like rogue for these unpredictable and fun cards! Yeah, the mechanics isn't new but it makes every game a little bit different. But it needs a very specific deck to be played on ladder. Might be some Tess decks i don't know.

    This card be either insanely strong or unplayable depending on rogue possibility to play enough dragons. I don't believe Waxadred alone can make Candle Breath a thing. But i might be wrong =)
