A little slow, but if you can survive long enough to play this it could swing the game in your favor depending on how many enemy minions it clears while not killing too many of yours.
Anything to do with the new Soul Fragments mechanic gets 5 stars from me! A mini board clear that also puts two of these fragments in the deck to enable the other Fragment related cards or heal? Yes please!
Things like Self-Sharpening Sword and Doctor Krastinov make this card much more appealing. Depending on the weapon meta for Rogue and Warrior this is either really good or really bad.
As many have pointed out, it's probably best with Restless Mummy but I'm most excited to try and stick this on 3 and curve into Doctor Krastinov with a weapon equipped. Maybe in a Galakrond deck with Ritual Chopper to really curve out.
Art wise I feel they missed an opportunity here. If this is a reimagining of how Scholomance was in the past, perhaps the Lab Partner art should have been more similar to Lab Recruiter, to represent this minion in his younger, college days.
I have no words for this monstrosity. Sure it does nothing, but it's 1 mana 1/4... in Priest! Where Inner Fire is still in Standard. I kind of want to put in a trash can, like how people used to do to real freshmen in high school.
High potential, not something I can really look at and think "Oh, this would be perfect in X". But I'm sure someone will find a broken deck to run this in.
Should be good. Can't wait!
Great for Demon-based decks. Especially if you are running a lot of mid-sized to large demons in a control deck; more resources and more stats!
Honestly, I'm not too impressed. I mean it's fine, but... just fine to me. I'm sure it'll be broken because I said that.

Potential for big battlecry effects, or even a potential new Exodia combo (with a Coin in hand or Manasaber on board).

Gandling made me rate this card 5 stars under threat of punishment if I didn't.

A few interesting dual class cards that will interact in some way with weapons, so this could be good.

A nice "combo" of Rogue's ability to damage or kill undamaged minions, and a Warrior's ability to Execute damaged minions.
Would this go into a Big Priest deck in Wild? I mean it could, but... what would you cut from it? And why are you still playing Big Priest?!
Oh good! Enrage Warrior is staying in the meta.
Randomized Crystology (kind of)!
Interesting design. I think this is most likely a Quest Warlock tool to try and guarantee you get the most value from your new hero power.

Spellburst converting this weapon to Frostmourne for a turn. I approve!
