I see control-oriented stats able to trade with smaller minions and survive along with a control-oriented effect, healing your hero so that you survive long enough to play your big control cards.
The Freeze Mage dream is dropping this with any Secret (preferably Ice Block) and keep freezing the board in order to stall the game even further. Ugh.
I still don't think it will see much play in constructed though. Freeze Mage is just too packed with more important cards to be able to run it (thankfully).
You can't harass members who play Face Hunter, nor are they compelled to make preemptive apologies or justifications for playing it. They don't hack or crack their opponents' game, they simply play existing cards that form a specific deck. If you suck at countering Face Hunter, you should blame the designers, not the community.
I just had a vision of a Mage dropping this along with ice block...and then...with a new, yet unknown, neutral gnome card...had the power to conceal it!
good card in mage deck,i play only rush secret mage deck so this card is more than welcome i will replace the mad scientist with this card on spot when they release it
Nice addition for Freeze Mage! I really like the fact that they will introduce cards that buff some existing control decks, while introducing cards that counter those same control decks!

Mad Scientist is a lot more value Card than this little Gnom. Illuminator isn't designed to replace MS, rather to go with MS in secret deck.
I dont think it is a good card for pally, he has waaaaaay more and waaaaaay better heal minions/spells/weapon and more contested 3drop then to put this guy in (not to mention his secrets usually dont last longer then 1 turn), but in mage and some control hunter, yeah sure. Arena mage will kill for this card, so far lots of cards revealed make arena mage so much more powerfull, it will be scary.
Maybe paladin will use Eye for an Eye more often, behind some big taunts and this creature...?
Haha. I'm sure some paladins may try to implement this card some how, but I doubt it will be commonly used in pally decks. It will be in a lot of mage decks though, and some hunter decks.

Illuminator + Ice Block = almost unfair
If you see a bad post on the forum use the report function under it, so I or someone else of the moderation team can take care of it!
I like it. Kind of forces someone who's rushing you to death to attack the Illuminator instead, so it's a soft taunt.

Control +1
Aggro +0
This card angers me. Already have trouble with secrets, now they can heal?
Edit: Then again, someone mentioned it will help versus agro. Perhaps I can get used to it.

I love what I see!
Edit: Yet, that could imply that there would be a neutral way to destroy secrets.. I've become concerned...

Love it! Secrets Mage is almost viable now, maybe this will give it the push it needs.
Looks potentially very annoying.
I like how you have so many "trap only" or "weapon only" non-class cards... Warlock am cry.
Now... if only there was a way to "donate" a soul priest to the mage..

Blizzard really wants secrets.

...Except Freeze Mages are nearly extinct atm on the ladder.

Here is the problem with Secrets, and why I don't like them.
Right now, Secrets are WAY better in Mage and Hunter than they are in Paladin.
Because of this, any of these cards the they introduce that "go with" Secrets will just make the divide even larger.
And its hard to see Paladin Secret's ever catching up because they cost 2 less than Mage and 1 less than hunter.
