Good idea, but way too random. There are plenty of mediocre outcomes. Dragon's Hoard is good because you're guaranteed a legendary and a card form another class. You're unlikely to not get something good - many legendaries are not supposed to be available to rogue, so you can highroll often ;) And it also triggers burgle synergies.
This is a strong effect, vs many decks it's way better than Loatheb - most of the powerful minions have Battlecry effects. Also shuts down hero cards.
Just look at Highlander decklists - for example my Galakrond Highlander Rogue has 19 minions, of which 15 have Battlecry, plus the Galakrond itself - it's more than half of the deck! Plus all the lackeys from invoking, that's a big deal.
I drafted this in arena yesterday, and boy - it felt like the most broken minion in HS. If you hit like a 4-5-6 drop with its battlecry it just wins you the game (unless you're very far behind), at least in draft.
But yeah, it does't really fit control / ressurect priest, but slam it into any tempo / aggro priest and it's gonna be good.
Leaving a minion on board vs Priest will be more risky if this will be a "meta" card. Just put it on a vanilla 3/3 an it's great value. Anything beyond that is nuts.
Quite stupid for constructed obviously, but - this card will be a goddamn nightmare in arena... can you afford to play around this?! Not really, and if you don't it will wreck you, everybody will draft this.
The effect is very powerful, but Hunter doesn't have that much Dragon synergies, at least for a tempo/aggro/midrange deck. Thus - this card is just good, it will be 3/3 weapon most often, I guess.

Very, very interesting design.
Seems super efficient vs aggro - kill a 1/1 and get a 1/9? Kill a 2/2 and get a 1/6? Preety neat.

I think it's a must-try.

How is this a thing? Aggro mirrors will be decided by going first or second alone -.-

Just drafted a warrior deck, got offered 3 of those, someone screwed something up ;)

There's a lot of neat art, hard to pick one, I would say:
Favourite - "artistic/epic": Deathwing, Mad Aspect and Mindflayer Kaahrj
Favourite - "funny": Whispers of EVIL and Waxadred's Candle (does that count?) :)
Worst: Aeroponics, I guess

I've got a highlight - here's my boardstate on turn 5 in a Paladin run. Doesn't happen often, lol. I didn't even have Nozdormu in my deck ;)

A lot of great changes impacting all the game modes, great stuff

The swing is WAY too big.

Quite powerful for such a low cost, and an S-tier arena card for sure.
