i can say with confidence that i'll be crafting two golden copies of this on release day.

Yogg-Saron, Hope's End

It's a bit of Dr. 8, but the great thing about Dr. 7 is that he is a 7-drop. And he is probably the only 7-drop that you can play alone and have impact. Gahz'rilla? Nah. Too slow, easy to remove (ping and BGH, Shadow Word Death, Sap). The best answer to Dr. 7 is a Lightbomb with yourself having an empty board, and swallow the 2-8 dmg to your face. You're a priest, after all. And then you have 1-2 mana, basically you can't do nothing.

The problem with Dr. Boom is not too much value, it's too much value on turn 7 (or even 3, if you're a druid).

Call of the Wild is cancelled by Flamestrike, basically only the 5-dmg from huffer resulting. It's easier to deal with than Dr. Balanced (against other midrange deck, he could trade and rebuild, not so easy against Dr. Boom, you'll probably need to trade 2 minions into the Dr himself, and lose others to the bombs), and costs 1-mana more. 

OP on value, of course, but late enough in the game to be kind of balanced.

You also save the need to draw 3 cards to summon 3 animal companions, and you take out the RNG.

If mages are willing to put Flamestrike in their deck to kill this one Hunter card, then more power to them.

 Y NO 3 RANDOM HUFFER?

 Fool, DB is out of standard, plus unless you are an idiot you will bait flamestrike.

cool

This card is better than Dr. Boom, if the Animal Companions get cleared by a board clear , a targeted 5 damage is still better than 2 Boom Bots deathrattle. Could really Bolster a lot of hunter decks.

Playable ... But not in face hunter

Could it be possible that Control Hunter will actually become Tier One? Lets wait and see. Firebat and Thjis, lookin at you here.

I'm very afraid

 I don't know Chinese, but that looks like a small amount of text, and no numbers? I'm going with summon each of the Companions!

wow insane card for control Hunter if that ever becomes a viable archetype....maybe in Wild some day ;)

Way to go blizzard, this is fucking broken.

 Way to go dude. You are the loser who makes an unoriginal comment and provides no argument or reasoning. The human race is proud of your existence.  

It's instant 5 damage but I don't think a Control Hunter (which is the archtype that Blizzard is trying to create) would run this over a big, bad 8/9 drop. It's just too vulnerable to late-game board clears and it's not exactly an answer to a big dude in a Control vs Control game. It might be a 1-off in some Midrange lists, though.
