Wait, I don't get it. Does it generate an additional secret? Do you discover it? Do you draw and play it? Do you just get to play a secret from your hand for free? This wording is atrocious.

 The wording couldn't be more clear.  What part about "PLAY a secret from YOUR DECK" do you not understand?  Your brain is atrocious.

Cool card with decent stats.

is this proper wording .. just asking

You just get a random secret from your deck played. Like Mad Scientist. At least that would be consistent.

Does this card say "a copy", "discover" or "hand" on the text? Seems like someone just wants to whine about anything, even when it's self explanatory.

Ok smartass, so why does the Mad Sceintist SPECIFICALLY describes the process as *putting the secret into the battlefield* while this merely says "play"? To PLAY a card means to PLAY IT FROM YOUR HAND. Nowhere else in Hearthstone is it described in any other way.

I know you're going to defend this because to you it's fine, but consistency is a hallmark of good design.

It just do what Scientiest did if you have a secret in play. The difference could be that it counts as played but i'm not to sure bout the 2nd part.

See? Even that much is unclear.

There's consistency and there's functionality. Yes, this card and Mad Scientist (most likely) do the same thing. Could or should they have the same wording? Most likely yes. Is there a reason to go "OMG DO THEY EVEN KNOW HOW TO USE WORDS" on this one? Definitely no. 

Disclaimer: Good design isn't something I actively expect from this game, it just happens sometimes.

It's worded that way so it activates other cards like Secret Keeper

I sincerely doubt it will actually activate the Keeper.

Yes, there is a reason. Lesser Emerald Spellstone, it says PLAY a secret to upgrade. Same with Secretkeeper... It's a card game, I think wording is like, EVERYTHING in a card game.

Mad Scientist on steroids (in many meanings too)

The card has potential. This one looks very good :) 

Secret Hunter/Paladin could make do with it. 

Now control means it must have been played in the battlefield already otherwise I trust it would say “ if you hold “ a secret to make this work. 

Paladin secrets are too bad to make it worth... this card is only worth it in Hunter or Mage.

Or Rogue maybe

Rogue rarely wants two of the secrets, so that is the problem.
