Wow. It appears that you think the crowd here is a lot stronger than the first poll.

Alright, here we go. I activate Time Spiral!

Well umm... it didn't do anything. Totally not worth the $19.99, plus shipping and handling. I guess we just have to wait.

Gabriel, The Scribe:

There're a lot of words across these cards, so many to the point where trying to read them all and think of its balance and implications in a group is exerting actual energy from my body. I get he's a scribe and all but that doesn't mean too many cards with too many words ought to be a class identity. The tomes are pretty cool mechanically, there's a lot of ways to utilise the keyword.

Tome Strike is my favourite out of your cards, the cost increase and reduction mechanic works very well, uhhh... I'm trying to think of the class as a whole, but honestly it just simply doesn't feel simple enough for that. There're so many conditions, so many potential upsides, so many cards with effects with big implications and uses like Scroll of Equalisation and Power Transcription, but I really prefer cards like Tome Strike and Tome Taker. Hearthstone is all about simplicity, and honestly this class just doesn't feel quite simple enough.

I also am unsure about "If your opponent controls no minions" as a mechanic. It feels win more. "If your opponent is struggling to get minions stuck to the board, deal damage to the next minion they play." is a bigger example of this than "If your opponent is struggling to get minions stuck to the board, get some value in the form of tomes.", due to the fact it doesn't necessarily further the problem your opponent is already having, so I think if you stick with it, I'd prefer more cards like the second. I also dislike the legendary, it feels both highrolly due to the random effects and it feels like it can lock people down potentially, by making all their cards cost way too much while they can't target it with their spells. It also doesn't feel very classic.

 It used to be so OP but they nerfed it.

 I never actually considered the overall amount of text on my cards. I was kinda just making sure each card was 4 lines or less without small text. It's definitely something I will keep in mind in the future as I agree, I probably have too much overall text. I just never thought about it.

The class is in a way about discovery. There are so many ways to use the class and cards that I've probably missed half of them. I really enjoy the whole discovery aspect and think it'd add a variety of different decks finding different uses for each card but I get it may not be for everyone.

The class is definitely a win more class but in a different way than classes like shaman that snowball on board and just flat out win with Bloodlust. Think of a control warrior that once he clears your minions, he has a much easier time keeping them cleared. Again personal preference comes in here as this win more approach leads to longer games than the alternative, but I think that gives your opponent more of a chance to use their deck and make a comeback!

You can remove the RNG factor from the legendary by having 4 tomes active. You'll have to build most your deck around maintaining them but you get a lot of power and consistency out of the legendary along with the benefits of all the tomes. As for suiting classic, Gelbin Mekkatorque, Elite Tauren Chieftain, Lord Jaraxxus ect were in classic so I think he fits.

I appreciate the feedback!
