    How many priest did you saw on ladder playing lackeys? Right, zero. How many you'll see after release this card? Right again, zero. Hopeless card and waste of card slot in deck.

    Staple card in Galakrond decks. Unlike most of other Galakrond invokers this has solid stats. Usable even in endgame thanks to the genereating priest minions through invoking.

    Another support for control priest. Great combo with Wretched Reclaimer. Possibilities are limitless, but here's the question - will be control better than aggro combo priest?

    Solid early game board clear is something Priest needed for a long time. Playable even without dragon (as was Volcanic Potion)

    Oh look! Priest now can Assassinate too! Class identity doesn't matter anymore?

    Deathrattle and absence of taunt makes this card much less interesting. But effect itself is powerful enough to push opponent to suboptimal trades. In overall still very good control tool.

    Close relative to Curious Glimmerroot but I don't believe it will be played  (maybe in some highlander decks). Guessing card from hand is much harder than from deck (especially with this much of random card generation) and value is not good enough. Even correctly guessed card can be useless trash and very similar Madame Lazul is not played at all.

    Mana cheating is always strong, so potential of this card is obviously insane. Looking forward to see some amazing action with this beauty :-)

    Delayed Faceless Manipulator which can be silenced doesn't look like a great deal to me. Also it works only with enemy minions, so any combo potencial is gone. Definitely one of weaker legendaries.

    Great control card with value generation which gives hope to cards like Princess Talanji. But as far as Galakrond is concerned, I like other versions more.

    According to reveal video this card cannot replicate battlecries... and that's all folks. Situationally OP (especially in case of hero cards), but is it worth to put a scrictly worse Tess Greymane into competetive deck? I have my doubts.

    For given cost good value, but for standard its too balanced.  I don't believe this will make it to the meta.

    Lifesteal is (for paladin) meh and stats are not good. Only upside of it is dragon generation, which can be enough to put it in dragon themed decks.

    Antique Healbot was a solid, playable card. This is so much better on every aspect of the card that I simply can't imagine this will not see play. Autoinclude in every dragon Paladin deck.

    Great, support for non-existing paladin deck. These forced archetypes never works and synergy with Sky Claw is a joke. In wild on the other hand is at least hope with Muster for Battle and other cards that vomits dudes.

    Great card for token druid, but for paladin it's trash. Paladin magnetize huge mechs, +1 attack means nothing and its super easy to remove it. Mediocre card in OP expansion.

    I have no faith in this "pure paladin" thing. 4/2 body as an extra to Truesilver Champion is imho not that exciting for limiting your deck building options so severely.

    If you behind on board this card is useless. This simple fact means this doesn't belong in any meta deck. Otherwise value looks obviously very good, but I don't believe it will be consistent enough.

    I don't have hope in this "pure paladin" idea, although generated value is insane.

    I like the flavor of "dragonrider" - when her dragon is killed, she just jump on another. There are also many ways how to abuse her deathrattle to create gigantic dragons I look forward to.
