With this card and the mage legendary, the mage quest just might have something to do with playing a lot of cards
I already predicted that the quest will be "Summon X Elementals" when they first revealed Pyros ... now I'm more certain than ever.

Complaining about RNG in Hearthstone won't convince anyone that it's a bad thing -- it only makes them think you're too dimwitted to find a game that suits you better.
Would you play a 3 Mana 1/2 minion that did 2 damage? Probably Not.
This is just a filler card to fuel Elemental Syngeries later... so Mage will need to have a Big Value elemental card to justify banking a 1 mana elemental charge (which is how i see this card)
I personally think this is really good. Control Mage would run 4 Frostbolt for early removal if they could, and a lot of times you just need 2 damage to kill a small minion instead of 3. Then you get the 1 mana 1/2 on top for a little additional value.
The Mage quest will also likely revolve around Elementals, so this, Water Elemental, and Pyros start to form a good skeleton.

I think the best comparasion is Disciple of C'Thun on it's own, disciple is better, but, this card can use spellpower effect (Bloodmage Thalnos or Cult Sorcerer) or be discounted by Sorcerer's Apprentice, yeah Disciple can use Brann, but this is rotating out. Both bring synergy to the deck as well. But also this can be played on turn 2, to deal with 2/2's 2/1's 3/2's slightly faster than disciple. Overall i liked the card.

Might be good - depends on what the extent of elemental synergy is
What's funny is this is exact kind of card Rogues would get except it would say:
Deal 2 damage. Combo: Add a 1/2 Elemental to your hand.
God forbid rogues get a card that does 2 things without using a damn combo.

Silver Hand Recruit

Most likely only for Elemental decks, like Mage's version of Jade Shuriken
This isn't going to make me miss Forgotten Torch any less, but it's an interesting little card.
And how many times have you Frostbolted a 3/2 on turn 2?
2 dmg + 1/2 seems not that bad
It's like a Disciple of C'Thun, but in a bad way.
My magic will tear you apart!
Cutest art award confirmed?
What is there not to really like, about this card?
a damage spell with adds an small 1/2 elemental to you hand...simple and playable.
Not amazing, but decent.

So Jaina is becoming Arisa?' I like it! i love Arisa!, now give us path to purgatory as the mage quest card and i'll be happy
