And how often is Snipe played in Constructed?
Then karazhan rolled it's ugly head around
This was indirectly nerfed with the removal of GvG, it had many big bodied Legends like Sneeds,Foe Reaper, Malganis, Etc. And now there are a lot of Battlecry ones (especially LoE), i love this card since it came out,and i still will be using it.
I think overall Paletress got more good stuff from this expansion than bad. Let's look at the legendaries of this expansion and see which ones are good to get from her and which ones aren't.
Fandral Staghelm - Kinda bad
Princess Huhuran - Acceptable (getting anything worth at least 5 mana in terms of stats and any non-Battlecry effects makes the Paletress play a good/decent one)
Anomalus - Good depending on the situation, you get an 8/6 body with an effect that can potentially clear your opponent's field, but can also clear your own.
Ragnaros, Lightlord - GREAT, an 8/8 body even without an effect is VERY good to get from Paletress. Getting one with a positive effect is even better, especially since Priests have all the healing synergies in the game.
Herald Volazj - Acceptable
Xaril, Poisoned Mind - Kinda bad because it's a 3/2 but the toxin he gives you when he dies, even if you aren't a Rogue, can be very useful (especially the Stealth one which can be used to stealth Paletress almost guaranteeing that she will survive to summon another minion).
Hallazeal the Ascended - Acceptable/Good - A 4/6 body does make the play acceptable in terms of stats, and while Priests aren't really a "damage with spells" class very much, the effect can still come into good use with damage spells priests normally use such as Holy Nova or anything with Auchenai Soulpriest.
Cho'gall - PRETTY good simply because it's a 7/7 body and 2 points of healing for 2 mana and no card slots.
Malkorok - Acceptable for the same reason Huhuran is acceptable.
N'Zoth the Corruptor - Good because it's a 5/7. (I really hope I got the linking right because I always have trouble linking this card)
C'Thun - Acceptable if you aren't running a C'Thun deck. AMAZING if you are.
Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound - FANTASTIC simply because it's a 10/10 minion and it has the potential to summon another big minion. Even if it summons a really small minion, the investment was still worth it.
Yogg-Saron, Hope's End - Good but slightly worse than N'Zoth because a 5/7 is better than a 7/5.
Deathwing, Dragonlord - FANTASTIC simply because it's a 12/12 minion. It might be difficult to include Paletress in a dragon deck, but if you can do it, then this card can give some bonus value. Even if you don't though, it's still well worth the investment.
Soggoth the Slitherer - FANTASTIC. It may not have the greatest body in the world, but if you get this, Paletress will almost always survive another turn. A Taunt is always good to get from her for this reason. And in general, it's a 5/9 Taunt and has the Faerie Dragon effect.
The Boogeymonster - GOOD. This is the only time this minion is good, everywhere else, it's garbage (not the band Garbage, that's good. I'm talking about the bad kind of garbage), but from Paletress or Sneed's, it's actually pretty good simply because it's a 6/7 that can potentially grow. The thing that made this card trash was its 8 mana cost. Without that, it actually can be a decent minion. That being said, I would still rather get Gruul from Paletress than this.
Twin Emperor Vek'lor - Acceptable/Good simply because it's a 4/6 Taunt minion, and Taunt minions increase the survivability of this minion.
Hogger, Doom of Elwynn - GOOD. It's a 6/6 that can summon 2/2 Taunt minions, and with Paletress, we all know how good Taunt minions are. Even without that, it's still a 6/6, that's worth the investment.
Mukla, Tyrant of the Vale - Acceptable for the same reason Huhuran and Herald Volazj are acceptable.
Nat, the Darkfisher - BAD. One of the very few minions in this expansion that isn't good to get. It's a 2/4 that can draw cards for your opponent. Remember though, one or two bad minions to get doesn't automatically make this card unplayable.
Shifter Zerus - BAD, but still better than Acidmaw or Majordomo Executus.
So, out of the 21 new minions, only 4 of them are not good to get from Paletress whereas the other 17 are. In addition to this, it also does add to the Wild pool (you can make the exact same Wild statistic as this card with Sneed's Old Shredder).
I like seeing this card get some really good stuff because this is my favorite card in the game. I don't own her but I do get to play with her in Tavern Brawls. She's fun as hell to play and can WRECK YOUR OPPONENT'S SH*T, especially if they don't have an answer to her. I really want to own this card for my collection, I didn't really start playing Priest on ladder until the new expansion hit, but I've always just really liked this card and I'm sure a lot of people will miss it when it leaves us in Standard.
if you read this great.
the text says RANDOM she can summon ANY legendary from the game.
the same applies with murloc knight, he summoned me old murk eye and others on standard in this week.
the same with tuskarr 3 mana cost or shaman
It's all fun and games until you get Majordomo Executus or Acidmaw
I've somehow managed to be fortunate enough to open TWO of these golden ladies. Needless to say, I squeeze her into every Priest deck I play... Dr. Balanced or Chillmaw be damned!

We hear:
Take this time to consider to concede.
or may be
Take this time to consider to Fireball Polymorph Starfall Swipe ......
Very underrated card!
I've been using my golden Confessor Paletress for a while now in a Golden Monkey Priest...haven't had the dreaded Majordomo Executus situation yet...but my opponent just stole my Paletress using Thoughtsteal and used her to bring in Executus and lose the game. xD
Hopefully I'm never on the other end of that situation.
THAT IS THE FUNNIEST STORY I EVER HEARD ON PALTRESS ! GG :D
I love using this card. It's hilarious when you get Ragnaros or Mal'Ganis. Sometimes though, you get something that will just kill you off like Baron Geddon or a useless legend like Bloodmage Thallnos
Sick card. I just mirror matched a golden control priest until we were both 3 cards from fatigue. He got a Illidan from it. I stole her, killed him. Then she gave me King Krush and Ragna freaking ros. GAME. I think I want my own Paletress now.
She sees into your past and makes you face your fears. Most common fear: Getting Majordomo out of Sneed's Old Shredder.
Which is kind of ironical since she herself can give you Majordomo Executus.
Actually, I think the legends she summons are meant to be your fears. So it kinda makes sense.
Might be wrong, as I haven't played a lot of WoW, so I don't know the powers she has.
Got this card in golden and it has become amazing, yeah, a lot of RNG and maybe not what you were looking for, but be honest, all those golden legendary in board looks amazing..
Too bad that there are too many bad legendaries, making this a very unreliable card. But I guess it would be too strong otherwise...
