This could be a little trickier than you might think. If your opponent plays a card that was Discovered or Added (think Prince Malchezaar or Undercity Huckster) rather than a card that was part of your adversary's original deck you could be victimized by misinformation.
And of course, you would never draft this in Arena. In fact, this should automatically be one of the cards Blizzard bans.
nope it says : started in the deck
Discovers and hucksters etc will not be in the poll. Malchezar could actually be in there since youll start with the legendarys in your deck but nobody plays him on high ranked so thats hardly relevant.
You entirely missed the point. Every time your opponent plays a card the theoretical likelihood of your guessing correctly increases because you've seen one more card that started out in the original deck. Unless they've added cards from other sources. Let's take Firebat's example from the video. Your Druid adversary Discovers a card on Turn One from Raven Idol. On Turn Four your opponent plays Bite. On Turn Five you play Curious Glimmerroot and you're given three choices: Angry Chicken, Swipe and Bite. You know it's more likely that the enemy deck started out with Swipe but you've seen your opponent play Bite that may or may not have been the card Discovered earlier. Does that sway your decision?
Like I said, "a little" trickier.
When your opponent discovers or gets a new card, the card gets into a fixed position in your oponents hand. If you watch the game, you will see when the discovered card is played.
Wait, this is my first post on this forum? Hmm, thought i had more.

When he plays Bite, it will say "Created by Raven Idol", if that's what he discovered on turn 1. So your example kind of does not work.
We need a wagering pool on what streamer will have the most WTF reaction, positive, negative.
Kripp? (Closes eyes, shakes head, moves hands, goes WTF, gets bitter on some aspect of it, pisses on it for being useless in arena. A month later he'll have a video on it, blather on about freaking crazy RNG, is pret-tee good, etc.)
Trump? (Breaks down math, gets geeked up, says value town, likely gets it wrong)
Kibler? (Compares it to his card making days, then gets distracted by his dog or wife)
It's a weaker, gambling Drakonid Operative, so far. You have what, a 33% chance to win?
I wonder how many times Patches will come up against Warriors.
basically a 3 mana Gnomish Inventor in terms of stats and effect. occasionally you could guess wrong but it seems like it'll be pretty obvious most of the time.
problem is I think the thoughsteal mechanic is pretty bad right now with jades. I suppose you could run two of these and two thoughsteals, and basically play your opponents deck. Jade Priest OpieOP

You're both correct, of course. I just admittedly don't usually pay attention to these kind of details. Of course, if I have in fact added a Glimmerroot to my deck then I will definitely become a more studious player.

Dependable loan sharks since 1960. We sink our teeth into every deal we make.
Even if you guess right you might get a shitty card for your deck,, Kabal Chemist is also a 3/3/3 that grants a card and it's always a spell. with a good chance of a board clear.
Very good card that will see play.......You take into account what type of deck your opponent is playing, coupled with the fact 90% of people are net-decking fags it won't be that hard to get the correct choice almost all of the time...
It's one of the few cards that is better in Constructed than Arena which is a welcome change....But even in Arena you should be able to eliminate one possibility.....Many times it will be a 50/50.
Overall a better King's Elekk which got played often in Hunter.
Skilled based mechanics like this is a breathe of fresh air.
Probably a good card if it'll show 2 "random" cards and one that is clearly the right choice. If it gets more tricky could not be so good because at 3 mana there is already Kabal Talonpriest, but at last It has some decent stats for its cost.
The most interesting thing in my opinion is the new mechanic, aside from its randomness, the idea of "look at 3 cards then..." I think It could open to a lots of new design ideas. There was already Tracking but its discarding effect never really made it playable.

Well, when you plays a created card, a text appears "created by something"... at least, you didn't read that, you wont be jebaited
I really really like this design.
First card since beta to make me laugh
Blizzard actually thinking outside the box? This is new.

The sad part is this loses its magic in tournaments. Most of the time, decks are known beforehand.
I do like the card, though. It's at least trying to make an older effect a bit more interesting.

O.o WAT. HOW THIS CARD
Wants to play Captain Cookie Druid because why not?

Not sure what to think of this. What an odd mechanic.
"When your opponent discovers or gets a new card, the card gets into a fixed position in your oponents hand. If you watch the game, you will see when the discovered card is played."
"When he plays Bite, it will say "Created by Raven Idol", if that's what he discovered on turn 1. So your example kind of does not work."

Also the artwork it's pretty terribile, I think.
For what profit is it to a man, if he gains the world and loses his own soul?
AHAHA FINALLY A PUNISH FOR NETDECKS
Much trickier to guess in Arena I suppose
I love the Mechanic.
However, I can't think of any card I want of my opponents T1-hand except babbling book.
33% to get a card ^^
